Grand Opera House, Pittsbrg

The magnificent stock company at
the Grand Opera House, Pittsburg, is
preparing a production of Franklin
Fyles' great war drama, Cumberland
81" for next week. This play is a
faithful picture of the war struggles be-
tween North and South. which we are
now so willing to forget the hatred of,
while we treasure like precious jewels
the memories of the brave deeds of gal
liant men and the patient heroism of
fair women on both sides of the border
line. Franklin Fyles is one of the best
known dramatic critics of this country.
This week is one of the biggest in the
history of the house. The magnificent
presentation of that greatest of romatic
plays, Under the Red Robe" is draw
ing enthusiastic crowds to every per-
formance.
