Chicken thieves in Ontario are g ig to find hereafter that when th< re caught the chickens will con of his neighb< , finally the loss of the wonderful emerald, regarded for generations as the Luck of Derryveragh, have all made the old man a nervous and superstitious wreck. The advent of Kathleen, breezy. American, and altogether charming, transforms the old home. Unconsciously the old man yields to her enchantment. Hfs maiden sister, under Kathleen's skilful tutelage regains her youthful charm and wins a husband, and Nora, the pretty coleen, becomes a lodestone to the amorous Mike. On the evening of Kathleen's arrival, a storm drives a young stranger to the door who follows the mystic directions of a time-yellowed leaf and finds the emerald where least expected. All this after thwarting the plans of Deirdre. one of the household, and listening to the warnings and mystic tales that aibound. The mysterious stranger proves to be Larry o'Leary. Hisitory repeats itself, Derryvaragh once more becomes linked with o"--Leary, but this time with the old Lord's consent and the peaceful union of the two families and the propitious return of the luck-bringing emerald. Between the acts, Mr. S. Penticost rendered exceptionally well some Irish songs, which were thoroughly enjoyed by all. The hall was filled to capacity by an appreciative audience and the singing of "God Save the King," brought to a close a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
