. strongest and best plays that has beer
in this city in many years. The com
pany is an unusually strong one,in fac

conception of Mark E Swan, the cele-
brated playwright. It is entirely ava!
from every other play on the stage and
is rated as melodramatIc production
. superior to The Great Ruby or Sport
ing Lite. Not only strong dramati

to the at times overwrought emotions
of the audience. The play deals will
