"a wolgArs BATTLE"

Last nights initial performance of
"a Woman's Battle" a five-act do
nestle drama, by the Jessie Shirley
company was greeted by a most APP
preciative audience. The company is
maintaining It's reputation for the ex-
cellency of its productions and the
Auditorium will doubtless witness
packed houses for the rest of the
week. In this connection Mr.. Hay
ward announced that up to the pres
ent time the company had increased
its business IL per cent over last
year.
"a Womans Battle" deals with the
lives of young married couple made
bitter by scheming adventures.
Through her wiles husband and wife
separate and she comes into possess
sion of the old home. Rose cottage
reconciliation is made possible by
the return Of the husband from
abroad. broken in health and wealth.
and the exposure Of the adventures
as married woman who had ruined
her husband by desertion. There is
considerable strain Of comedy
throughout to brush away the moist
ure arising from the many sympa-
thetic situations. Altogether the
play Is delightful one and Miss
Shirley and her company deserve the
unstinted praise manifested at the
drop Of the curtain at the end of
each act.
