STRONG HUMAN PLAY
 AT LYCEUM THURSDAY

Why do girls born and bred in small towns so often have a craving, reaching out with both hands, an unquenchable longing to go to the big city? They leave home, mother, friends, pleasant surroundings and near associations to live in tiny room, in a house only half clean, with food that barely holds the body together, and endure this for years rather than return to what they term the dull monotony of home life. -
 Many grow tired of the tiny room and squalid surroundings and fall easy prey to wicked men, who, like vultures, are ready to devour a girls innocence and virtue; few grow dis couraged in this slow grinding drud- gerry and though tempted to go the easiest way are halted in time by the thoughts of home and mother.
 Of these latter is Mary Horton, the heroine of Sinners" the four act play by Owen Davis that will be pre- sented by William A. Brady, Ltd, at the Lyceum on Thursday.
 This is one of the strongest human plays of several seasons, drawing crowded houses wherever it is pre- sented, because of it's wonderful pathos and appeal. Seats now selling at CrowelIs.

A LAUGH FOR ALL IN
 "A PAIR OF SYKES

"A Pair Of Sixes," at the Lyceum on Saturday, Oct. 9, matinee and evening, is the No. 1 company.
 The true test of farce is the ability of the characters in the scenes to make observers of their conduct laugh at them, while by all their speech and actions they appear to be in dead ly earnest. This, "A Pair of Sizes" the greatest of all farces which ran for an entire year at the Longacre theater, New York, accomplishes in way that made the metropolitan critics positively outvie one another in their lavish terms of praise The play is by Edward Peple, who has al- ready distinguished himself as the author of '"The Prince Chap" and "The Littlest Rebel" It is in three acts and tells a humorous story that is as ingenious in it's development as it is in motif. It concerns two business men, George B. Nett1eton and T. Boggs John, who have estab- l1shed lucrative business by manu- facturing violet tinted digestive pill. ! Each feels that he has done more for 1 the success of the business than the other, and neither makes any bones of l expressing his feelings to his partner l As consequence they are constantly squabbling and irritating one another
 In this respect they might be termed an American Potash and Perlmutter. They finally decide to dissolve part nership and call in their lawyer He has already had many such demands made upon him, and as usual is unable
 to bring them to a point of settle
 ment. He finally suggests a game of cards, the one drawing the losing poker hand to become the butler in
 the winners household for a year
 While the other is allowed ab- solute conduct of the business Nettleton is the victor, drawing a pair
 or sixes.' John is duly installed as a
 butler in the Nettleton household,
 Where his partner lords it over him,
 but he grits his teeth and performs his
 duties as a menial. The contract
 st1pulates that it must be kept a
 secret, and the one breaking it must
 forfeit S5,00O and lose his share of
 the business. AS consequence, T.
 Boggs John is unable to explain his
 awkward predicament. To add to his
 discontinue, the English housemaid,
 an eccentric cockney sets her cap for
 him, but it is not until the arrival of | ilo hoiSCS dS d guest or MTS. 1NeIllG- ton that his misery overflows, for he cannot explain his plight without for Ifeiting a heavy fine. He begs her to trust him in spite of all. These hu- morousa situations develop in a contin- uous excitement of fun. Boggs' sweet heart proves a very powerful queen in the game, as it is through her cleverness that the relations between the two parties are finally explained to the satisfaction of all excepting, per haps, the scheming lawyer
