Comedy Drama Pleased Audience At Ellis Theatre Monday Night.

* _ —. —.. -jr-T The comedy-drama, “Hearts and Diamonds,” as presented last night at the opera house by the senior, class of the high school, was very favorably received by the audience. Among the cast of characters were the old time heroine and villain, and comedy character sketches. The first and last acts were primarily the heroines and villains and the second and third acts gave “Sis” and “Bub” their opportunity. As is usual, the character sketches, “Sis” and “Bub,” elicited from the audience more applause than their more staid fellow actors. However, aH acquitted themselves creditably. The performance as given last evening will be repeated tonight and all who did not see the play last nio-iit will have the opportunity this evening.
