Bells

On account of the holidays, and some
of the members going away for Christ
mas and New Years, the Dramatic
Club has postponed Rupert OF Hentzau
till some time in March and instead
will put on THE Bells" play made
famous by the late Henry irving.
This is beautiful play adapted from
the Wandering Jew" by Leopold
Lewis. 1t tells story of the wonder
full working of a persons conscience.
Matthias, burgomaster, having killed
jew for his money, fifteen years be-
fore the play opens, is so haunted
and terrified by the sound of sleigh
bells that he finally dies of terror en-
tirely unsupported of having committed
the crime.
A nice lot of costumes are being made
and it will certainly be an Xmas week
treat. Remember the date, Dec. 80.
Following is the cast Matthias. r.
c. Edwards; Hans, j. Coulson; Father
Walter, Butler Sampson; Christian, j..
Corcoran; Notary, Orville Bethel; Pres
ident, S. w. Hall; Tony, Glen Marble;
Fritz, Van de Crit; Mesmerist, Mar
tin; Sozel, Willadee Martin; Catherine,
Mrs Mills: Annette, Bessie Simmons;
Villagers, girls, etc.
