The lesson it teaches is not so plain, hut is left for the audience to deduce, and the auditor is perverse indeed if he does not enjoy the methods by which he is led to the author’s conclusions. ,The play is typical of rural New Eng land, the characters are all well indi vidualized, and the scenery anil stage effects, which represents a little vil lage in New Hampshire, are all ex cellent. The cast is an unusually strong one. Miss Ruby Bridges, as Anna Moore Chas. H.
