Ryan in answer says that the date Is too
near and that he cannot very well face
O'Brien by that time, as his health Will not
allow his going into active training

Herman may induce Marvin Hart of Louis
Vile to take Ryan's place.

decided advantage as to weight. 1t Is un-
derstood that O'Brien is satisfied to tackle
Hart on March II at Fort Erie. Herman

There is something fascinating
and pleasing in Sir A. Conan
Doyle's stories of the greatest of
all detective creation, Sherlock
Holmes. It is safe to say that
there never was such a pulling
and yet interesting character
placed before the public as in
these tales of Doyle's the first
and most generally read of which
is his "a Study in Scarlet. :,
In matizing this book, Hort
w. Sanford, found a very difficult
work, as Doyle has left out of his
story many of the essentials of
good play material. Neverthe-
less Mr.. Sanford has pleasingly
supplied the necessary, with
which the plot Of the book, has
constructed one Of the strongest
and most delightful plays Of the
dramatic season. Mr.. Tom
Arthur, a Manager Of many sue
cessful attractions has given "a

company and production, which
is booked to appear at the City
