Browns In Town

The story OF browns ia Town"
which Is the attraction at the New
Grand Opera house Monday night, is
decidedly complicated and the COM
plications are new, They come
about through the efforts Of a young
man to keep his marriage a secret
from his father. In furtherance of
his play, lie and his bride 90 to a
country villa where the father arrives
later and where friends drop in,
quite by accident Of course, and to
the utter despair Of Brown and his
wife. When the father arrives unon
the scene he is told that his sou is
visiting a man Of the name of Brown.
This naturally compels the introduce
tiOn of Mrs. Brown, as well as her
husband. One Of the friends, in
ignorance of this marriage, is per-
suaded to play the part of Brown.
He finds it much to his liking and
proceeds to make love to the lady in
earnest, a proceeding which the hus-
band is powerleSs to prevent without
revealing the very thing he is trying
to conceal. Matters are further COM
plicated by the fact that the psuedo
Brown is supplied with two wives to
suit the different emergencies and is
finally accounted a Mormon by the
irascible father who has caused all
the trouble. Ultimately matters
are Strengthened out by the son con-
Tossing the fact that lie is married,
and as the old gentleman has become
very fond of Mrs. Brown he finally
gives his blessing and everything end,
happily.
