PLAY WAS A GRAND SUCCESS
''Braving the World" Made Great
Hit at the Opera House Mon
day Night.

'EBraving the World'' was the at
traction at the opera house Monday
evening. The play was given by home
talent under the direction OF Eugene
l.. Miller. 1t is full of comic situa-
tions and those who took part did sur
prisingly we'll. Miss Josephine Smith
took the part of Mrs. Maxwell Griggs,
wife of the heavy william, who was rep
resented by E. P. Tawney. Miss Smith
played the part ina very satisfactory
manner. With Mr.. Miller she did a
clever sketch and brought down the
house. She seemed quite at home on
the stage and won lots Of praise. Her
singing was very fine.
Mr.. Tawney was villainous enough
in makeup and acting to suit the most
exacting. He played his part well.
His manner was easy and he could not
have been improved on. His accom-
plice, Will O'Donnell played the part
of Ben Holtz and did some clever
work.
Miss Cleo Mitchell had the part OF
Pansey Homerf, a Waif, and Tommy
Rocks, a newsboy. and made quite a
hit, as did Miss Gainsforth, as Jane
Ann, an aged bachelor lady.
Mr.. Miller played Jasin Joskins,
Mother Megg and other characters.
He was exceeding clever as Jasin JOS
kins.
The part of Dan Kelly, the detec-
tive, was taken by Chas. Keller, who
handled the rather difficult part with
out any tr able.
The attraction was well worthy OF
patronage and Mr.. Miller is to be con-
graduated on the success of the play.
