The Coming Attraction.

There is much sweet sentiment in
Sis Hopkins that delightful rural
comedy drama which comes to the
Turner Theatre next Sunday evening
with Miss Rose Melville, the origina-
tor. OF the quaint country girl, playin
the title role. The sentiment is OF the
kind which appeals to ones finer feel
ings, and this with Miss Melville's
superb acting and the clean comedy
OF the play, has made it the marvel
lous success which it is. This is the
eleventh season that ssSis Hopkins
has Been presented and everywhere
Miss Melville is greeted with crowded
houses. The story of the play is not
complicated by any social problems.
1t IS plain, unvarnished tale of the
simple life of the people of Posey
county, Indiana, where Sis was born
and brought up. In the action Of the
piece there comes into the life of this
home-body girl, an INSCRIPTIONS man,
who trading on her affections. en-
beavers to defraud her of a pitifully
small bit of meadow land. Discover
ing his treachery "Sis,' whose philo-
sophy brightens the play, leaves her
home to go out into the world to learn
at first hand what it really is like.
Clad in the homespun of the farm she
departs; and when she returns it is as
the accomplished, beautifully gowned
young woman of the world, WHO how
ever, has lost none of her gentility or
purity OF character. The play
abounds in situations which are thrill
ling in their dramatic intensity: it
brims with delectable comedy and
quaint philosophy. There isn't a
false note in it, and Miss Melville's
art, in the portrayal of the character
OF Sis gives to the drama a finish
which makes it perfect.
| Mr.. Stirling, Miss Melville's mana
ger, has put out an entirely new pro-
ductlon and the play has been am
plified and improved until now it has
reached the home of perfection. The
costuming is all new and the special
ties which have been as delightful a
feature OF previous engagements have
been changed and added to until now
| there is left nothing to be desired
| This is especially true of the famous
seminary scene, which has been i'm.
proved to the uttermost.
