The play, "The Reward of Virtue," was givven in a masterly manner and those who were unfortunate in not being present, missed a rare treat. The story of the play is that of a young married couple, Emma and Joe Brooks, who are in very nioderate circumstances. They receive a call from Emma's mother, sister and Capt. Williams, who is the head of the Steamship Company in which Joe has a, position as chief collector. Emma's mother complains to Emma of her poor circumstances and Joe, In an effort to increase the happiness ot his wife, steals money from ^thq Company while the Captain is away on a business trip. As the play goes on, we find Emma and Joe in much better apartments and the Captain returns, only to find out that Joe has misused his trust. Joe is warned that the Captain knows this by a friend and former sweet-heart of Emma, Jimsy Smith. Joe then bargains with Emma to go to Williams and arrange matters as best she can. She then goes to Williams apartments, which are such as one might expect a bachelors apartments to be, and there Williams puts her to the test, only to find out that she is a good woman and as a "Reward of Virtue" he gives her a statement that the books have been audited and found correct. Mrs. Halliwell in the role of Emma played her part in an exceedingly well manner. Mrs. Potts, as Mrs. Harris, was perfectly at home in her part and did well. Miss Gertrude Graham, as Beth, ever ready with her answers, won the support of the audience, Mr. Sut-cliffe in the role of Joe, mastered the entire situation, and while playing a part entirely different to his nature, too much praise cannot be given him for the manner in which he handled it. Mr. Luery took the part of Jimsy Smith and was loved by e from start to finish He, Lye everybody, well reprosei played the p Stato mjoyed Mr. Spring Suits and Overcoats An Expert from the House of Hobberlin, Tailors, Toronto, will be at our store, Thursday and Friday of this week.
