The play promises fi house and will liDdoubt'eclly make a hlg hit with the pubHc li'qfp. From the few Itpes In the first act, where Fred Parker and his Vivian, begin the Quarrel around which the play centers, to the reconqlliatlon scene In fourth act, the play lurnlshea one and amusing scene after another.

The qiiarrpl between Fred his wife Is not assuaged by Aunt Mildred, a maiden lady of the rare old false curl type. Aunt Mlldreil suggests that Mrs. Parker accompany her to St. a popular watering place, for a ghort f'red agrees with great gustp, a proceeding which he Immediately regrets. Jones, a young man from San Francisco, is introduced to Fred, as looking for a job In the drug busi-.

nees. Jones Immediately falls in love! with Hebe Worthy, a young lady who! is visiting Aunt Mildred for a short time. Jones jands out through some' source that Miss Fortny will leave lor the.same summer hotel to jwhich lyirs. Parker Is going and plans to follow the latter In order to locate kis maldep. Fred notices Jones' desire to folioV Mrs.

Parker and decides that It is a case for him to watch, and eets out for St. Helena the very next (lay, first shaving oft his board and donning a wig. The second, third and fourth acts i are laid in St. Helena. Jones enlists i Mrs.

Parker's aid in his quest for Miss Worthy's hand. Fred arrives disguised, ftnd notes with, great jealousy the seaming Intimacy that has fprung up (between Mrs. Parker and Mr. Jones. Jeremiah Browler, flebe's nncle, is unapproachable, and Jones cannot get In his good grace.

Jones and Pred meet and Fred asks Jones to be introduced to Mrs, Parker, claiming that his own name is Harrison. Vivian Parjcer recognizes her hus-, band and sets about to get revenge for his lack of faith In her. Jones manages to get in the good grace of Growler by giving him a massage treatment. The third act Is laid in Parker's room III the hotel. A mysterious tel- 1 egrara comes to Parker, which com-! plicates matters for some time.

While Parker Is telephoning to his partner In Ukiah, trying to find out about the telegram, Jones enters Parker's room with aunt Mildred, who is trying to find out if her niece's suspicions con- eeniing the identity of the masquer-, ader are cor.reqt. While Jones Is try-, lug to open a satchel belonging to Parker, Parker enters, locks Jones up and calls for the police. Dr. Rodgers, who has become convinced that Parker Is crazy, has him committed. to an Insane asylum, During the last act Fred Is released from the asylum and a reconciliation takes place between him and Vivian.

Jones and Hebe finally manage to secure Growler's consent to their marriage, although much trouble Is caused by Growler's mistake in picking out the object of Hebe's affections. The play, BB put on here, has been ftaged in some of the larger cities of the west, and has met witli great success and appreciation. The cast has been working hard on the production and the play promises to be a grand here.

OF D. MURRAY WEDNBS- DAY HAD MANY HUMOROUS ANGLES Judge Hurley's court was the scene an opgra bouffe pertormancp last wpdpiesday, occasion 'being the trial of D. of southern section pf the county, a chiirge having deer meat In liis possession out of spaspn. represented J. S.

who furnlshea tbe comedy element of the trial, to judge from ills demeanor, he was utterly unconsctoyis of the effect was haying on the jury and the spectators. O'Neal's methods of procedure were so comical that It was Impossible for any but the judge to remain sober and how His Honor was able to keep a straight face is a mystery. The jury brought in a verdict of guilty after deliberating about an hour and a half. A further humorous element was lent to the trial by the fact that when Murray was arrested, four of his friends at Cloverdale Insisted that he stand trial and went his ball for $100. When he was found guilty the judge imposed a fine of $90, and 'n line with the rules of the court, the amount out of the ball vioney, returning the balance of $10 the sureties, minus a small sum 'or a money order and telephone charges.

Thus Murray's well meaning friends find themselves out $90 unless he should feel obligated to make the sura good. Had they permitted him to plead guilty, as he at first wished to do, he would have been fined about $25, which he would doubtless have paid himself. District Attorney McCowen prosecuted the case.
