"Over Night" is one of those delicious
little farces, full Of humor and compli-
cations, that one can see twice, or
even oftener, and still extract from 1t
any number of hearty laughs. 1t tells
the story of the adventures of two pairs
OF young honeymooners, just such ad-
ventures as might have happened to
any pair of newly weds under similar
circumstances.
Richard Kettle is a cute little person
with a lisp who. marries a domineering
suffragette, and Percy Darling Is big
masterful man, who weds a delightfully."-

happened, leaving Kettle and young
Mrs. Darling to entertain each other In

and Darling's wife are carried up the

Fun Reigns Supreme
Through Three Acts.
The woes of these young people form
the subject upon which the plot of the
play hinges, and there is enough fun
of the purely clean and spontaneous
variety to keep the large audiences at
Polls Theater interested throughout
the three acts. The fun begins as soon
as the whistle of the 5. s. lIendrick
Hudson blows, and II continues until

throws his magic power over the
charming little wife of Percy Darling,
and compels her to tell the truth re-
