Next Wednesday, December III,
"Friends" will inako its second ap
pearance in Lincoln at tho Lansing
theatre: In "Friends," Mr. Royls has
written a play that deals with various
phases ot life, from the highest to the
most lowly- that is, of American life.
Tho burden ot his theme is the great
lovo of two chuniB, who have roughed it
together and smilingly parried tlio
huffctingfl ot fate, hand in hand.. In
such a ease there can be, or course, hut
one great disinterested affection, and
tho author has most beautifully por-,
trayed that Bterling quality. It may
tax tho credulity of an audience in
general to tho utmost to see a man give i
up tho woman he loves better than any-
thing on earth to a friend for whom ho
has tho highest legard. Hut, isolated
as such cases may lie, there are high-
minded people yet left in the world who education at Yale, at the expiiation of I
aro capable of such a noble sacriliee. I which time, a wedding trip to Japan isi
Tho author him clovorly softened this j anticipated. Happy Harry! Once be
blow to credulity by making the woman i fore, the Gould family allied itself to
in question regard this man only as a
true and noble friend, never suspecting
his love. Mr. Hoylo has planted his
tlowcrs in tho fresh soil of youth and
not on the dried surface of soured ex
perience, and the blossoms he culls are
tho sweeter and purer for their nurtur
ing. There is a freshness and originality
about him that is charming. His
characters aro drawn fiom lifp and they
aro well drawn, too. There is but one
repulsive feature about the play- the
delirium and death of the opium
Binokorbut that can be forgiven for
,tbo strong moinl it points. There iB
nothing in "Friends" that can give '
offense nothing that a girl just
graduated from Bchool could not listen i
to. It teaches a pretty lesson, and in
creases one's wavering faith in humanity,
for it is a beautiful thing to think that
such people exist in tho world. There
is a villian, but Ids character is kept
woll In tho background until tho ,
supremo moment, and his villainy ends i
almost as soon as wo are made aware
tluit It oxists.
Commencing Monday December 11,
tho Holden Comedy company will open
a two week's engagement at tho Lansing
theatro, presenting a repertory of suit

his hat, matched up his phiid. turned the
gas off and was about to leave thu room,
preparatory to starling on a long jour
ney through Germany and Italy, when
in th davit his sleeve swept over the ta
ble, in consequence of which something
dropped on the tloor, which, to judge
roin tho sound, must have been a coin.
Although during his absence no one
could enter the room, as he was in t.ho
habit of locking it and taking tho key
with him. yet he thought it butter not to
leave the money lying about, but sccuro
it ui his purse.
lie therefore relighted the gas, and
found that the coin was only a copper of
tho value ot 1 penny sterling. Putting
it in his purse, lie hurried out of tho
room and quickly locked tho door, for
it was just striking 1, and his train loft
at 0:18, so that ho had only just timo to
catch it. Might month later Glimmer

locked the door of his room and went in.
Htil what is that? The gas was burning
merrily just as he left it after lighting
it to seek the dropped coin, ho having
forgotten to turn it off again in his hur
ry, and u couple of days later ho was
presented with a gas bill to tho amount
