cowboy and the Thief"

Manager Murray will offer his patrons
at the Gennett tonight is a play of the
heart interest, Astounding in abund-
ent comedy and stirring incidents Of
af adventure which thrill the nerves
not too much, but just enough. There
is very little (gun-play) to offend the
ear, but great deal that is beautiful
in the way of scenic equipment to
please the eye. 1.-The Cowboy and the
Thief" comes Well recommended from
every large city where it has played
this season.
Few plays of western life have been
successes west of the Missouri river.
This is mainly due to the fact that
their characters are overdrawn and
the situations do not ring true. This
play was written by J. Wendell Davis,
who has lived and worked in the West
and knows the Western character. His
portrayal is wonderfully clear and true
which is proven h1 the success his
play has had in western territory. The
San Francisco Dramatic Review says
Of 1.-The Cowboy and the Thief" 1t is
good to see play that represents our
country as it really is and not in a
manner that is insulting to our intelli-
gence. THE Cowboy and the Thief.
deserves the success it has won. In
comparing 1t with the average western
drama. it is like breath of flower-la-
den ar from the foot hills as compared
to a hot sultry day on the plains.

SOUTH RIVER IS

For the second time victory came
to the camp of the crimson and
white basketball team in the form
of an IS to l6 score yesterday after
noon on the Auditorium court.
South River was the vanquished
team. The last game which vas
played between these two schools
ended in a 10 to 2 in favor of
the locals, but the game was played
on the defeated teams court.
On account of violating n of the
facuity's rules Wesley Davis, of
the best forwards in the school, did
not play. Miller, South Rivers star
player, was also absent from his
teamss ranks yesterday afternoon.
Miller, who is also one of the best
players of the Sterling A. A., of

therefore was kept from playing.
