Because of the inclemency of the weather a smaller crowd than usual gathered at the Douglas Opera House last Monday evening. Those who were not, there missed one of the best plays of the season. Mr. Geo. T. Snow is es- pecially good as the "Noble Outcast." The audience was deeply touched by his troubles and his final appearance as prosperous, happy man was greet ed with burst of applause. A spec iaIty by Miss Crystal Snow and Frank Montrose was a lucky hit.
