 NOBLE DRAMATIC CO.-The au- l dienCe that left the Hardwick theatcr 1 last night was one that was well pleas ed. if there was a dissenting voice it could not be heard. The cause of the satisfaction was the finished and thorough manner in which the Noble company had handled the evenings bill, "Escaped from Sing Sing" Vina Noble handled well the parts of Lizzie Stark and Madam Lawrient showing that she is capable of handling with credit the strongest and heaviest parts. The play was well cast, each one showing to advantage. Jack Will jams in the part of Harold Lennox. proved himself to be a thoroughly capable and finished actor while Fred FrinlI as sammy Green served to keep the audience in good humOr. The play for tonight is one which is entirely new to the theater gOerS of Phoenix and one which has q high recommend atiOu as comedy, Our Strategists, the dialogue being both crisp and witty and holds the attention and never al lows interest to lag.
