DENVER.
Sacred Heart College.

In the opinion of critics, the play
given by the Sacred Heart College ORA
matte club last Sunday evening at the
Broadway theatre was the best per
Torrance ever attempted by an anna
teur organization. The audience. which
was large one, listened with rapt
attention and took unusual interest in
the play. The work of three or four
Of the leading characters was con-
sldered by all to compare very favor
ably with that Of professionals.
The play, THE Signet of the King -
admits of several leading roles. The
character sketches particularly were
enthusiastically received. Martin D.
Currigan splendldly imperspnated the
crafty Jew, and his work in this part
proved surprise to his friends who
were not conscious of his wonderful
blStriOnlc talent. ]. Fred McDonougl
did exceptionally clever work in the
dual role Of Co ~ and the Duke of
Mayenne, ano his, l., . arsonation of the
testy old steward made a tremendous
hit Francis X Telegan was also de-
lightful in his w., < as the Comte de
Mar, lending grace and dignity to the
character j. 2. Gilmour had a difficult
part in the representation of a crafty
secretary, bur he did it remarkably
well. Joseph T. Walsh sustained the
character of the boy creditably, and
Bernard Murray, who took the part
of his friend, won much applause
William T. Lyman deserves special
praise for his Characterization of Can
tain Dupres. He made the audience
appreciate the murous situations in
which he placed the villain. Edward
Walsh and Leo Upton took well in the
comedy scenes. There was not weak
character in the play. Those who at
tended pronounced the play the great
est dramatic success ever achieved by

Music by the college orchestra was
much appreciated.
The success of The Signet of the
King is mainly due to the careful
training Of Rev. E. MonteH S. J., as
sisted by the popular entertainer, Joe
Newman. Mr.. Newman has become a
great favorite among the college boys.
His work in the training and make
up for the recent play is highly ap- |
preciated.
