"Bunty PulU the Strings'." Another troat in store for tho patrons of the Keith theatre is "Bunty Pulls the Strines." Graham Moffat's famous play of Scotch hfeandimnnners, the sweeping success of which in New York and Loudon, hns been the great est sensation of tho drnmatic world in recent yenrs. "Bunty," presented by nn all-Scotch eompnn'y of plnyers, in eluding Miss Molly Mclntyro and William Lennox, will bo at tho Keith theatre for ono night, Fridny, April 11. Iho story of the play deals princi pally with tho tangled Utrnirs of Tam inas Blggar, father of Bunty. Tammns is n widower, a pillar of thn church and nn honored citizen of Lintiehnugh, n Village in the Highlands. But he hns u Past, has been something of n gay dog In his'day, nnd no one is bettor aware of this than Susie Simpson, tho testy nnd hypocritical spinster around whose maehfnntions tho piny largely revolves. Bunty, in love with W velum Sprunt, the village enrpente- and an elder of the church, irons out in deft, ingenuous manner the entanglements in which her father is enmeshed. She manages her father, her brother, her sweetheart, the entire village. All the While everyone feels nnd knows sho is pulling the strings, but nobody thinks of crying halt, she docs it all so charmingly and naively. "Buntv Pulls The Strintrs" is said to bo full of excellent dlnlogue, ppontnn eous and natural, and crowded with highly amusing situations, brimming with quaintnoss and humor. Several lastcrn critics have crowecd "Bunty" as the greatest comedy of the decade and it has been said of Mr. Moffat, tho author, that he and the. splendid com pany of Scotch players havo dono for tho Scotch character and environment the same sort of thing that mado James A. Herno's plays of Now England life tnumps of realism and of art. Of the company thnt is to present "Bunty'' it hns been said that their playing is the very reflection of life it ,selt, with, not n tagy thing about it. And humanity, therefore, walks upon thescenos with all its dignity and sim plicity, all its depth and foolishness. Undoubtedly "Bunty" will recoivo the same warm reception in North Platte that the play has received everywhere else. A Growing Church. The annual congregational business meetingof tho First Presbytorinn church was held Wednesday evening. Time was a good attendance and it was an occasion for rejoicing. Rev. J. C. Christie, pa3tor, lef erred to their meet ing that evening being somewhat in the nature of a splritnal stock taking. It wna much easier to gunge tho fmnncinl progiess than the spnitunl advance ment of a congregation; and it would be difficult to say what aro spiritual condition and progress was, and how we. stood in this respect as compared with twelve months ago. Tho treas urer's report by J. C. Hollmon made, a pleasi'ig nnnouneement thnt he had ' a ualanco on tho ri,ht side. About $4,000 was raised 1'iom all sources during tho year. The- various ieports showed an advance along all lines over the pre vious year and were nn inspiration for entering1 on the ensuing year with on CDinagement nnd hope. After the business session an adjourn ment wns mado to tho pallors where an excellent snpper was served by tho ladies and uvorvbody had a good time. ' New Time Card.
