THE LOST SISTER
 AT PARK THEATRE


 '.The Little Lost Sister a white slave play by Virginia Brooks, pre- sented last night by Gozzalo and Rick senaat the Park theater and renaining g for Tuesday and Wednesday, is an- pealing. It attracts for two reasons: First, because it is the most unvarn- ished display of how girls are ac- tually Iured towards vice. Second because it is seldom that a play so eninently fitted to uplift is played by an apparently amateur cast and upon a book which is devoid of that finish and dramatic principle expected of modern producers.
 The show is intense, bordering upon the line between melodrama and trag- -edy- In many places action is lacking g and in others there is a surfeit. It is odd in many respects, chiefly in the prologue to each act which tends to throw a mysticism about the whole. antics of the players and ignorance of theatrical art keeps the audience in pleasant mood until thes finish.
 s7The Little Lost Sister, irrespective of the manner in which the piece is portrayed is a wholesome play and will do much in its crude way to show the young girl just what she should guard against when. temptation stares her in the face. It is a drastic con Hdemnation of the practices which per milf vice in it's lowest and uost ds-

THE LYRIC

In "C1assmates,' the leading pie lure now playing at the Lyric, the audience is transported from the fash 1onabIe city home into the heart of the South American jungle. The act ing is splendid. One sees the expIor- ing party deserted by their guides, left without food or water wandering
 a1mless1y, stunb1ing upon huge ser pents, gilla monsters and other inI1ab-
 itants Of the jungle. Half crazed by
 the heat and the lack of water, they
 are rescued just as they are about to give up in despair.
 The story deals with two classmates at West Point who were rivals for the hand of the same girl. While they are at college they get into a dispute and in the end one is expelled from the school. The cadet who is expelled goes to South America with an ex> ploring party and is lost in the jun gles of the Amazon.
 When the news of his. loss is re- eeived in America the girl challenges his rival to go in search of him. He departs on the next steamer and after 8 long search in the Jungle finds the
 lest man, i'll with a fever and about te give up the fight for his life In the end, after many hardships all return l to America where the army officer
 marries the girl
 The picture follows exactly the play or that name in which Robert Edsor in the leading role drew such crowded houses a short tfmeIago.

The act is 8. novelty in every sense of the word and is both interesting and amusing to both sexes in every feature it introduces. It consists chiefly of fencing, bag punching, wrestling and boxing, probably the latter two afford ing the best 1augh-provoling situa- tions, which are caused by many hap penings in the course of the matches and because they are wholly uninten- tfonal they bring rounds of laughter from the audience and add a zest and snap to the offering that is thorough l Iy exhiierating.
