Like Uncle Toms Cabin" 'The
White Slave" which is tie offering to-
morrow evening at the Odeon, is A
story OF slavery days in the old south.
The plot, which is a strong and CO.
herent one centers abou the trials and
sorrows of Lisa, "a white slave" Her
love story is so natural and so pref
tily told that the audience never fails
to synpathize with her IN her sorrows
and rejoice in her happiness. One of
the best scenes in the play is the exte-
rior of the steamboat, Belle Creole at
night. Hear the old plantation melo-
dies sung as they should be sung.
