is beyond question the most talked of, pop
ular and successful drama of the day. 1t
comes to the Belfast Opera House SATURDAY.

at night with the purpose of making her
pray and saving her soul through death.
But the love of Glory triumphs The play
ends with mutual understanding between
them, they deciding to brave life's battles
together. Everybody should see the s.Chris-
tlan.' 1t is at once one of the most power
