1t Is difficult to speak with the or
binary language of criticism. I'm writ
ing OF such plays as w. r. Nankevilles
production OF Hall Gaines powerful
story The Penitent." When a drama
lat the very outset storms the fortress
.of the heart and leaves the weak bull
warks and defenses Of the intellect TO
fall under the sureness. deftness, and
concentration Of the attack without
as much as ''by your leave" the critics
occupation becomes al once easy and
difficult Easy to speak of praise and
difficult to give those words a judicial
sound such as becomes a conservative
estimate. "The Penitent' is a story
Of the passions, nothing more But
such a story intermingled with duty.
with love. with hatred, with revenge,
with patience towards a misguided
youth, and sacrifice TO accomplish hap
piness. these and nothing more are its
motives. To see how well Hall Caine
preserves his reputation for originality
one needs only TO witness the presenta-
tion of his latest master work. and the
conclusion Is reached that in "The
Penltent he has scored as successfully
as he did in "The Christian" Such
We're the words Of an eminent critic
used In speaking OF this play. Suffice
IL that its presentation Is announced
for the Opera House on Wednesday
afternoon and evening. and that the
same great cast and the same scenic
equipments that aided in making rs
success in Boston so triumphant will
be seen here. No new play of this
seasons staging comes more highly
recommended.

"A Texas Steer" which comes TO the
Onera House on Saturday afternoon
and night will always be a welcome
visitor. 1t is as distinct and different
from the so-called farce comedy as one
could wish It is true that it is a com
dyfarcical In its nature but it has as
plot a story of sufficient strength to
carry the interest from the beginning
to the end Of the play There has
been no sacrifice of that peculiar fac
.ulty of caricatre, and cOmical run to
.eXaggeration that has heretofore dis
.tinguished Mr. Hoyts work. but these
features have been modified by asso-
Citations with incidents and suggestions
.of a serOus order so that "a Texas
Steer is quite as amusing as other
works of it's author. when it undertakes
TO amuse. and yet it occupies a higher
plane than the others. A considerable
portion of the piece belongs TO real
comedy. The prologue is scene in
Texas, being especially well drawn in
this line 1t is decidedly bright piece
.ot writing not less humorous and
hearty for being keenly satirical at
times.

EXHIBITION FIRE RUN
MONTGOMERY DEPARTMENT
FOUGHT IMAGINARY FLAMES
Called Out for Benefit of Visiting
Mayors and Won Compliments
for Record Breaking
Speed and Daring.

The Montgomery Fire Department, in
the presence Of 5000 spectators, including
the members of the Alabama League of
municipalities gave an exhibition of speed
and efficiency yesterday on Court Square
that brought 1t many compliments. The
exhibition run was arranged for the ben
eft of the members of the League Of Ala
bama Municipalities some of whom came
from towns that do not have a paid fire
department.
The exhibition took place at o'clock
and was In every particular attractive
and successful. A throng of people
watched the daring dash Of the firemen
on their apparatus to the Square, their
rapid work in getting water on the imag
mary fire and the fearless ladder scaling
of the Hook and Ladder men. In 1t all
the department made an excellent impress
sion.
The men of the department were ex-
pecting the exhibition call. but they did
not know what minute after 4 o'clock II
would come in and in the meanwhile
bona fide fire alarm might be turned in.
In answering the alarm for the exhibition
the men had the same as any day start.
The alarm was turned In from BOX 30
by President J. 3. Weakley Of the League
of Municipalities. The alarm was from
Court Square. which is a general alarm.
In exactly 81 seconds Chief John Browd-
er of the Fire Department, dashed into
Court Square. his horse on dead run.
He was the first OF the department to
reach the scene. Hose Company No.
from headquarters on Madison Avenue,
and Steamer Company No. ! from Five
Points arrived on the Square at exactly
the same instant. one minute and fifteen
seconds after the alarm had been turned
In. Steamer Company No. from the
Scott Street station was only few sec
onds later. but Its whistle was the first
to blow I'm signal that steam was up The
first water was thrown by Hose Com
pany No. I. The men Of this Company
coupled to a plug laid a line of hose and
threw a stream Of water in one minute
and forty-seven seconds after the alarm
was turned In
Truck Company No. reached the
Square from its Madison Avenue head
quarters by way of Perry Street and Dex-
ter Avenue. The men of this company
ran an extension ladder high in the air
and a daring fireman climbed the ladder
which was without support and PLAYED
a stream on the imaginary blaze. The
fire engines demonstrated their ability to
throw strong stream to the top of the
highest building in the city.
The department was highly praised by
visitors and bv citizens of Montgomery
for the exhibition.
In this connection II Is announced that

Miss Gibson can travel and not suffer
because she has a remedy that keeps
menstruation regular and preserves her
health and energy. How much more
