OF THE

piece, The Silver Grill" will re-

this play, which has attracted even
more attention from metropolitan
audiences than the same authors

The four acts depict scenes in
both New York city and the far
west and are singularly true to ma
ture, furnishing an environment of
a most pleasing nature. The char
acters. 10 in number, are drawn
with master hand suggesting
somewhat the work of Bret Harte in
his palmy days. A whole hearted
miner and his uncouth pal, along
with personages of the great me-
tropolis, are involved in most en-
PERTAINING affair of the heart. The
miner, when first viewed by the au-
dience is wealthy through the sue
cess of The Silver Girl mine. But
the action Of the play requires the
loss of both fortune and wife, which
almost drives the loser to distrac.
ton. He regains both, however.
