LITTLE THEATRE =
TO PRESENT THE
LIAR IN CITY
George Somnes Directs
Big Undertaking for ~.
Society. LUZ

The Little Theatre Society of In
dianapolis will present 1.-THE Liar"
comedy in three acts by Carlo
Golden, Italy's greatest comic writer.
on the nights of Feb. 2, 8, 4
and 5, under the direction of George
Somnes at the Playhouse, Nine
teenth and Alabama SITS.
This play is a diverting evenings
amusement. The web of the plot is
of airy mesh, concerning itself chief
ly with the predicaments in which
Lelio, q Venetian fop, and "the
greatest liar in the world" finds
himself entangled during a short
period of twentyfour hours by his
talent for prevarication.
Making love to the fair Rosaura,
daughter of a Bolognese doctor, he
brings upon himself the wrath of
Ottavio, her admiring sutton, and
having represented himself first -
nobleman of wealth and shortl%
after changed his role to that of
poor but honorable sutton, he also
arouses the wrath of the puzzled but
infatuated Rosaura, when his lies
are discovered.
His fertile imagination supplies
himself with a convenient wife and
with equal ease does away with her
when she proves inconvenient and
when the entanglements to which
he has committed himself prove too
many for even his ingenious wit to
extricate himself, he swears to lie
no more.
But as an afterthought and being
quite incorrigible he makes the reser-
walton, "unless he be hard put to
it, when he will save himself with
some witty invention"
First Produced
The play was first presented IN
Mantua, Italy, in May, 1850. Col

reason for writing it his desire to
portray a liar in role 'Iess vicious

WASHINGTON, March 20. - A
minor engagement has been fought
in the interior of Nicaragua between
U. S. marines and residents Of the
country, whether actually incorpora-

Admiral Latimer in charge Of the

Latin American republic reports that
members of the patrol exchanged
shots with Nicaraguans at Leon, and
that a marine airplane, flying be-
tween Derio and Matagalpa, was
struck by bullets fired from the
ground by some one unknown.
They Don't Like Marines
Considerable dissatisfaction is ex-
pressed at the navy department build

hostility with which the population of
Nicaragua regard the presence in
their midst of the swanking Ameri-
can forces. 1t was not realized be-
fore that the natives" had real

country.
