RunoTad Consolidation Of Local

LOVERS LANE
VOW Playing the Second Month of, It's En-
gagement at Mcvtcker's Theatre.

Hearty laughter is the accompan1-
ment nightly given to the presenta-
tons of the Clyde Fitch play, Lovers
Lane" now running at McVicker's
theatre and we'll into its second month
in Chicago. The fun of the play is
fast ard furious during several cpl
so1es and it is as wholesome and clean
as it is good natured. AT that it does
not offend the taste nor disturb the
more serious portions of the story en-
twlfied in the meShes of Lover
Lane" Half a dozen spinsters and
busy bodies, a superannuated deacon
or two and an "opr'y house, manager
form the nucleus of the humor, while
Simplicity Johnson the orphan girl,
furnishes both fun and pathos.
{ The women of the village, formed
into purity brigade" determined to
wipe out vice in all it's forms, and led
by woman modelled on Mrs. Carrie
Nation, make for much hearty laugh
ter, while the deacon, the store-keeper
and Mr.. Skil1ig come in for their share
of the comedy. Perhaps the most hui
morous incident in the piece is the
covering of the poster showing two
girls in tights. The women see this
bill on the walls and Mrs, Brown, the
leader Of the village society, takes. the
paste brush and puts piece of blank
paper over the offending poster.
When the school children come out
to play the fat boy sees this blank
across the poster and pulls it off to see
what is underneath. He is ashamed
at the sight and the audiences roar
every night at his genuine ability.
Vim. A. Brady has staged Lovers
Lane lavish1y and beautifully and
the large patronage extended to the
play-is the result of this 1iberality.
