widest and most complete character
By visiting it one gets a vivid, living
glimpse of life on the Western plains
at a time when every man was armed,
awake or asleep. One sees the Indian
in his hideous war paint; rejoice over
the hilarious and audacious cowboy,
now nearly extinct; watch admiringly
the evolutions of the American, Ger
man, Irish, English. COssack and Gu
ban cavalry. One realizes how war
fare has changed when the Roosevelt
Rough Riders and the Baden-Powel
South African Horse gallop past. Then
come the Arabs and the Mexican
NaQueros, the South American Gauchos
ana all the other groups Of land rough
riders. Yet one must admit that while
these horsemen are educating one in
the art OF war, the Life Savers
give glimpse of the perils that must
be faced in time of peace when gale
and storm threaten life and property.
It was a happy thought to include
this broad lesson of the sea among
the other educational features of the
great Wild West which will be in VIII
mington on May q.
The play announced for presentation
at the Grand Opera House sat
lurday afternoon and nieht is
The Bonnie Brier Bush" i'm which /
II. Stoddart is the star Mr.. Stoddart
carries with him his entire original
support, who so ably supplemented his
own efforts when the piece was being
produced in New York City. When
the play was first presented there. OF
course everyone expected such a senti-
mental treat as a dramatzation OF
Ian MacLaren's charming sketches of
! Durmtochty life would entail How
ever. the fact developed that "The
/ Bonnie Brier Bush" is not only a real.
istic romance. but a comedy of the
drollest and most laughable type. The
stellar role of Lachlan Campbell MS.
sumed by Mr. Stoddart is, of course
serious enough but an excellent comi,
foil for this is found in the character
of Posty Among other personages ot
MacLaren's stories who appear in tho
play are Margaret Howe, the old schoo
doctor. Wellum MacClure and Flora
Lachlan Campbelrs daughter. The
psychological interest in the play cen.
ters in the suferings of Lachlan Camp
bell. whose bigotry causes him to dis
own his daughter. The old mar
thrusts her into the night because ht
does not believe her story of a secret
marriage with young Lord Hay. He
is sustained in this act by the belief
that he is performing Gods will. The
paternal instinct in him, however, is
reawakened by the playing of some
children and when his daughter returns
and he discovers that her marriage was
a real one. his character is completely
changed.
