presented in the playhouse this season an
was well appreciated by an enthusiastic
audience. Owing to the inclemency of
the weather the house was not taxed to
its utmost capacity as was expected ow-
ing to the character of the play, but It
made up in its appreciation for its lack
of numbers. The play deals with that pc
riod of Scottish history, when the adher-
ents of James Stuart of England and
William of Orange were battling for SUI
premacy during the 18th century. thus
the plot is full of intense action and the
costumes and scenery were picturesque
and striking. -.--4-

Scotch melody by David Lithgoe, the
leading male member of the company,
made an instant impression on the au-
