orrin Johnson will present the great New York success, "Hearts Coura- geous," which comes to the Hyperion for presentation tonight and to-mor- row night direct from the Broadway theater, New York.
 The scenes of the play are located at Yorktown, Williamsburg, and Winches- ter, Virginia, and Independence Hall, Philadelphia. In the latter scene is shown the signing of the Declaration of Independence; but previous to this Patrick Henry delivers his famous speech. Patrick Henry is made great character in the play. MT. Johnson as- sumes the part of a French nobleman, special messenger from the King or France, pledging assistance to the peo- pie here, should there be war between them and England. The message IS addressed to Benjamin Franklin, and 1t ! is with great difficulty that he fulfils his mission, interrupted as he is by the loyalists who know of his coming; but he assumes disguise, and says he IS the secretary of the real messenger who died on shipboard and was buried at sea. The first beautiful girl he meets on the day of his arrival at Yorktown, he falls desperately in love with. She proves to be an arrant little rebel, a. great friend of Patrick Henry, and as-
 sists the messenger in the performance of his duty, but not without great and serious trouble.
