Arthnr Wing pinnrn

Arthur Wing PinerO, author
of "The Magistrate" which is
to be produced at Wright S
Grand Opera House November
26th, occupies a very prominent
position among English drama
lists of the past half century.
In fact his first works are rec
ognized as superior to any of the
age, and anything from his pen
received a most hearty welcome
until he conceived the idea that
it was his duty to correct the
morals Of England by writing
problem plays. '"The Magis-
trate' is one of the early farces
and has touches of character and
action which are rarely surpass-
ed. Those fortunate enough to
be able to see the production of
the 26th, which is given by the
local chapter Of the d. A.. R.,
may be assured Of unusual pleas
ure.
