turesque section of our national do
main, which is now knocking at the
doors of Congress with the demand Tor
the dignities of statehood. The CHAR
acters are typical of the sturdy civil-
zation of a new country. Candy, a
splendid old ranchman, who dominates
the Aravaipa valley; his kind-hearted,
but peppery-tempered, wife; their two
beautiful daughters. children OF the
plains, veneered with San Francisco
cultures; the officers and soldiers of a
frontier cavalry post-these are the
principal types that move and live in
a play said to be one of the best con-
tributions to the American stage since
Bronson Howard and Dion Boucicault
tons foundation.
The scenes of the play are on
ranch close to the Mexican border and
Fort Grant. one of the United States
military posts, established primarily to
keep the Indians in a passive condi-
ton. The dramatic motive is simple,
and the complications which lead to
the denouement rational. The young
wife of a colonel, many years her
senior being wearied to the point of
despair by her lonely life, has a pass
ing spasm of romance and is on the
verge of elopement with almost too
transparent a villain, when the young
lover Of her sister foils the plan, but
at such a critical moment that he must
himself bear the burden of suspicion or
reveal the wife's frailty to her hus-
band, who has been to him almost as
a father. With genuine manliness he
chooses to shield the woman and await
the future of his justification. BY thus
sealing his lips, he innocently devel-
ops a series of crises that are highly
tragic, and eventually a catastrophe
that halts the movement of every cor
puscle. But when 1t is all over, and
the sun breaks through the heavy
clouds, one feels that in every step of
the matter his judgment was sound
and his conduct gallant and heroic.

"hulnan Hearts"

Successful in its ninth season
can be said Of few plays, but it
can be truthfully said Of "Human
Hearts" A drama which pro-
vides healthful recreation for the
public and which seems to instruct
while appearing in the form Of
amusement, is a boon to any COM
munity. So many questionable
forms Of amusement are thrust
upon the public, the young and
old alike find much in this beauti.
full living story to think over and
enjoy long afterward. Rich in in
cident, in it's variety of characters,
in stage settings, it is one of the
few attractions Of great merit on
the road. The spectator is carried
into the delightful atmosphere of
life into the hills of Arkansas.
The trouble which falls upon the
simple folk of the Logan farm,
reminds one of the line-"the
trial of the serpent" The beau
tiful and touching denoument
however, bears its lesson Wait!
The author has struck many true
notes in this play, and the we'll
chosen cast blend their harmonies
with fine effect. It is with much
pleasure that the managers of the
Auditorium announce "Human
Hearts" for Nov. Sth. The adj
