| his instincts are sound, his heart Is big, he is generous and honorable and a man to be trusted with woman or anything else. He has lived the wild. elemental life of his kind but ho knows and loves the better way when he sees 1t.
 The one and overmastering love affair of the virginian's life comes with the arrival at Bear Creek of the pretty school teacher from Vermont. Miss Molly Wood has New England train ing and she does not surrender at once to this handsome young giant who tells her that he Is going to make her love him.. To the end of the story 1t is a battle royal between her Pur- tan preJudiees and his Western in- stincts and 1t is not until he has shown her that his sense of honor Is strong CT even than his love that the girl capitulates. The surrender comes when the COW puncher's one enemy. "Trampas," makes his play" in the language of the West The gauntlet is thrown down and 1t is understood that, if both men are in town at sunset one of them must die. Molly, unable to endure the thought of her lover killing a man even in self-defense. begs<the Virginian to fly: but he re. fuses even when she tells him that she cannot marry him if he kills his enemy.

 The many romance lovers in this city who have read this powerful story of the love and evolution of cowboy have been awaiting the appearance of it's stage version with something very much akin to impatience. Per- haps never since the dawn of the big selling novel has there been offered to fiction lovers a hero at once so human. so manly and so irresistibly loYable as Mir. Wisters Virginian The fact that this hero is a cowboy Is not enough to account for the popu- larity that has created a demand for nearly three hundred thousand copies of the story that tells about him.

 Tn the engagement of John Grifhth in Macbeth" which is announced here for Thursday night at the Montgomery Theatre the public will have an oppor- tunity to see an actress play Lady Macbeth who will give to the character it's fullest force and meaning and who will more than compare favorably with the greatest opponents of this grand est of all dramatic roles.
 Old theatre-goers will remember that within the past fifty years great successes were achieved as Lady Mac beth by Madame Ponisi, Ristori.

ssDoIly varden'' Monday.

Dolly Warden" Stange & Edwards's successful opera, comes to the Nf3nt- gomery Theatre Monday night. It has played extended engagements in all of the principal cities each year, and al though others have come and gone, the critics still declare Dolly to be a Ht- tie prettier, little more musical, and little better on the whole than any of them
 The music Is ambitious, tunefiI. and effective, while the book has a clear de- lined plot which holds the interest to the final curtain.
 fDolly varden'' is in two acts. The first takes place on a beautiful terrace in the gardens of Beauchamp Towers on-the Thames, near London the mag niheent residence of Miss Letitia Fair fax
 The second act transpires fin the re. ception hall of Beauchamp Towers. The action of the piece covers a period of two days. The time Is 1730, only a short period after George had como over from Hanover to reign on the English throne. The court customs in- stituted by Queen Anne-both as to eti- quette and dress--were yet in vogue and the brilIiancy and splendor of the court of the gay Louis XIV was also having It's effect in England Proba- OAS at uO ttiHSs OehOFc UT since mas Ene English court been so beautifully and artistically dressed as at this period
 This. fact has given Mir. Whitney an opportunity to show how lavishly and expensfvely and yet aftistically a comic opera may be costumed. He has spared no money in the accomplishment of this. The costumes of Dolly Warden" were designed by Madam Seidl of the Metropolitan Opera House, and made at the famous atelier of Madam Erie singer of New York and Paris, and are all triumphs of the dressmaker's art
 Apart from the fact that these cos- tunes are most artistic creations, addI- tional interest Is added as they are of style in female dress that Is coming Into vogue again, after having been almost obsolete for nearly 200 years. The styles of the Beau King" of France. Louis the xv, makes them of unusual interest.
 The cast includes Miss Maud Rollins, in the title role; Miss Rena Aubrey, Mir. Tom Daniels. MT. Frank Huff. Mir. Ray mond Yungman, and other members of the company who appeared here last season.

 The entertainment is dependent in a large measure upon the singing and dancing. and in these features 1t is said to be particularly strong. From the rise to the fall of the curtain there Is succession of popular melodies, In- terspersed with gems from the grand operas.
 One of the star vocalists of the or ganization is Mile. Hopkins, who Is said to have voice of great range and sweetness of tone. The popular mem bers with the company this season are s. H. Dudley, John Dudley, John Bal ley, Marion Smart. Hattie Hopkins, J. Ed Green and Jerry Mills.
