The Passion Play Entertainment.

The Christaiu Church was crowded Fri. uight to see the Pas sion play given by Rev. John L. Brandt, lhe moving pictures were unquestionably the finest ever displayed in our city and Dr. Brandt’s discourse was very inspiring and beneficial to all present. The piotures illustrated the life of Christ from the babe in the manger k to the crucifixion. An effort is being made to induoe Dr. Brandt to return at ab early date, and repeat the entertainment in the opera house. The Doctor’s pictures represent a total outlay of upwards of SI,OOO. He bought three sets of these pictures ol the Passion Play and selected from the three all the best pictures and rejected the others. If he consents to come again the opera house will be crowded.
