THE FEATURE PLAY — Os the Guy Stock Company Friday Evening Unusually Good. The 'tent of the Guy Stock company which is playing Ir this city this week, was literally packed Friday evening in spite of the great heat that prevailed—with an audience that closely followed every line of the Interesting drama, the company's sea- * ture play of the week, “Her Father's ‘ Sin." The characters that unfolded ; the plot of this thrilling and touching play were clearly, cleverly and sympathetically interpreted by the actors, making the production one of the best ' ever presented by them in this city. The play is very much like the great favorite, "Polly of the Circus." It j tells of the injury befalling a lovely I pure, little circus rider. "Amy," whose ; mother died when she was very young, * the mother having been deserted a I short while after her secret marriage | to the son of a rich man, whose name js unknown to Amy. The child, upon j being injured is taken to the home of a minister, living nearby, where she is cared for. The minister and girl become lovers, but the foster father ot the minister, as well as his parishoners, objected to his marriage to a circus girl. The plot unfolds, step by step, and in the end the circus girl found io be the daughter of the minister's foster father, and the story ends happily with the marriage of the lovers. The play for this evening is I Why are B and P the most impor-j tsnt letter* of the alphabet? i SA B c de] F C.H I J <L.M.NIO Pqr ST U VWXY z 329 Because you couldn’t have Beef or ' Pork without them!
