Searching the realms of fiction for material for a great play, Mrs. South worth’s “The Hidden Hand” appears to many to offer more fine opportuni ties than any other story. It ap pealed so strongly to one of the lead ing modern actors, Eugene Moore, that he made a new dramatization. This new drama of “The Hidden Hand” was immediately produced by Fred G. Conrad, owner of numerous successful attractions, and will be seen here at the opera house, Loup City, Neb., Tuesday, Oct. 15th. With the madcap “Ca’pitola” and the arch villian of stage villians, Black Donald as the leading strong dramatic char acters. Mr. Moore evidently has con structed a drama chock fnll of Ameri can life. Comedy, pathos and romance are constant rivals for the interest of the audience. The picturesque Blue Ridge mountain scenery is cleverly reproduced.
