ADJUSTMENTS.
Last Niqht's PLAY,

"Bunty Pulls the Strings" was the
attraction at the opera house last
night and was witnessed by a small
audience. The play is a clever satir-
ical comedy by George Moffat, and 1t
was Well presented by a company Of
about the average.
"Bunty" is costumed in the period
of 1860, the women in hoopskirts and
oid-fashioned short Jackets, and the
men in tall hats, baggy trousers and
frock coats. This added a quaint and
somewhat picturesque note to the story
which the audience evidently appre-
ciated.
The play is in three acts and tells
the story OF life in Lintfehaugh, Scot
land, where the struggle for existence
is hard and where narrow minded
prejudice dominates largely the lives
Of the villagers. Bunty Biggar is the
pivot of the activities; Bunty, the fru-
gal little housekeeper; Bunty, the
manager Of her big, clumsy lover,
Weelum Sprunt, and, in truth, Of
everybody else in this beautiful idyl-
yes, and Bunty, the big hearted, loyal
sister. The success OF this much her
aided play is said to lie in the unique
