At the meeting Of the magnates OF

The reason for which Fairmont was

the league is too great
This is the source OF the greatest
regret TO the levers Of the sport in this
city, who were hopeful that Fairmont

LESSONS

CHANTICLEB
THE PLAY is INTERESTING, PIC
TuREsQuE. WITH Its GIGANTIC.
SCENERY AND ANIMAL COS,
TUNES.
AN ABSORBING PRODUCTION
1T is A PENETRATING SATIRE ON
THE EXTRAVAGANcEs OF MOD.
ERIN LIFE WORKED OUT BY
POWERFUL SYMBOLISM.

Maude Adams Will appear in Ros-
tand's much discussed poetic drama,
"Chantecler." at the Grand Opera
House, Fairmont. on January y. The
play is an absorbing mixture of inter-
estng and picturesque novelty with
its gigantic scenery and fantastic
animal costumes. with its penetrating
satire on the eXtravagances of mod
ern life. with its powerful and obvI-
Gus symbolism and rich verse,
AS most everyone knows, the scene
of this production is laid in a barn
yard, and the persons on the stage
are the fowls always found in barn
yards. following ont their little des-
TIMES between the wheels of cart
or before a dcg-kenneI. In such sur
roundngs Chantecler stands as the
typical egoist--young, ardent, mex
perienced--wh imagines that the
world cannot progress without him.
AT the height OF his self confidence
he falls in love with a charmer, who,
by catering 10 his vanity, establishes
her domination over him until she
leads him to betray his CHERISHED Sc
cret, his faith that his call alone
brings each mornings sun to the
world This disclosure prepares the
way for the shock Of Il most painful
establishment. Slowly he discovers
that he is not the idol OF his universe,
that his high courage avaiIs little
against the trained skill OF an enemy
and that even without his call the sun
appears as usual. His experiences
shake his faith in himself and in his
work. But at the end he perceives
that his chosen mission, though not
SO all.impartant as he thought it, is
yet honorable and beneflclent, and
that. If he cannot make the sun rise,
he may at least arouse the sleeping
world from its slumbers.
Such is the theme in which Ros'
tand, with unanalysabIe charm, phil,
osophy and fantastic eloQuence, eX.
presses in poetic form his wish for
the simple and genuine in modern
life. He has merged the truth OF ma.
ture into the ardiance OF his cause. He
has cyeated symbolism that is an
obvious platform on which to set
forth creed OF great elevation, a plot
with sufficient action to hold always
the interest and the suspense. For,
tunately, no better adapter could have
been found for him that Mr.. Louis N.
Parker, who has clung close to the
original text and who has retained the
poetry Of the French in liquid English
