The Dramatic Entertainment and Sup
per in MechanicsviIIe Monday last for the
benefit of All-Faith Parish proved great
success. The supper, which was served
before and after the Play was very sys-
tematieally managed and consisted OF al
the delicacies of the season.
The Deacon, drama in acts, with
a deep plot, though containing humor-
Gus parts, was most admirably rendered,
each one taking his or her part so well it
is hard TO determine who did best.
The deep laid plans OF the villain, Geo.
Darrah. were exceptionally well carried
out, but were finally spoiled by the strong
and manly character Of George Graef, in
which the player only had to act hi true
self. Much of his asssista ce in clearing
himself wasdue to Pete who was always
on the alert and kept the audience laugh
ing
Mrs. Darrah, the discarded wife Of the
villain, appealed to Graei, thus strength
ening his dete mination to straighten out
matters. She, though discarded aud for
saken, was ever faithful and trne, thus
DOrtraying a character OF a gentle and
noble woman characteristics of the one
who played the part. Nellie. her child,
was played beyond what might have
been expected for one so young.
The Deacon" afforded much amuse-
ment in isappointmentsa and disappoint-
ments and proved, with his awkward
son, very GOA characters.
Mrs. Thorhton, the Deaeon's sister,
was very gracefully presented. Miss
Amelia, with her pet dog, was typical
old maid
Daisy, Mrs. Thornton's servant, was
sweet and attractive, and the Deacon
was not TO be blamed for wanting TO be
sociable.
The climax came in the 9TH act when,
with Lohengrin's march, the villain, with
his sweet and attractive bride, marched
under the wedding bell in front of the
parson, only to be conIron- d by his
former wife and child, also Graef, who
has proven his own Innocence and found
proof sufficient to convict Oarrah of a
crime of which he Darrah, had tried to
convict Graef, thus causing the villain
To leave his bride to mete out just fate,
and leaving the Deacon, who had at last
persuaded Miss Amelia to- become his
bride, an opportunity TO take his place
before the parson, Below is The program:
