IJ Park, is the ofefring at the Majestic for the coming week and embracing the entire cast of the Maddocks-Park play CTS.
 Judging from the present attendance at this little playhouse and the class of plays being presented, together with the fact that Sam is a most popular boy with the Majestic fans there is almost a possibility of a standing room only sign being hung out at each perform ance next week.
 The story of the play winds itself around the three central figures, two young men in the banking business, both in love with the same girl, which, of course, forms the triangle for the plot.
 Through jealousy one of the boys places the other in bad light with the employer and eventually has him i'm prisoned upon a false charge. This does not change the feaing of the girl for the lover. whom she still believes in. and she in return sets about to place the blame where it rightfully belongs.
 Tn order that his rival may not escape from any possible brutality the real cul- prit arranges with the state officials to lease the prisoner as common laborer in his own employ.
