Rev. J. B. McClay, pastor of the
Gordon Avenne Methodist church in
Cleveland, has pronounced views on the
subject of matrimony and old maids
The basis of his contention is that it is
better for a girl to die an old maid than
marry a man who has not been living
up to high ideals. As men of this kind
appear to be rather scarce, it Is evident
that if the learned doctor's advice is to
be followed the number of unmarried
women in our next census will be some
thing terribie to contemplate and cause
advocates of the strenuous life to send
ont another call of alarm.—Ex.

The Convicts Danghtir.—April 3.
Webster says the definition of the
word "tramp," as applied to a human
being, is a •'foot traveler, stroller, vag
grant, vagabond." Any one of the
above terms would apply to "'Weary
Willie," the tramp in "The Convict's
Daughter,'' one of the most powerful
dramatic plays by an Amerfcan
author ever produced in this country.
Prices 25c-50c-75c.
The Virginian.—April 5.
That virile play of Western life,
"The Virginian," with Dustin Farnum
and notable associate plavers, comes to
the Majestic Theatre, Thursday, April
5. The Virginian has proven one of
the most emphatic successes* of any
book dramatization of recent years, its
success being in part attributed to the
stage adaptation has been univer3ally
conceded to be better even than the
book, while the production and acting
company are known to be np to the,
standard long ago established with all
of the Kirke La Shelle attractions.

The Prince of India—Apl 3 to 14
Klaw & Erlanger's colossal produc
tion of Gen. Lew Wallace's "ThePrinoe
of India," now about concluding an
engagement at the beautiful Colonial
Theatre in Chicago, comes to the Nixon
Theatre, Pittsburg, on Tuesday, April
3d, remaining for two weeks.
"The Prince of India," written by
General Low Wallace, author of "Ben
Hur," and presented by Messrs. Klaw &
Erlanger (the producers of that world
famous spectacle), excels its prodecessor
from almost everv point of view. While
adhering to the reverent atmosphere
which dominated "Ben Hur", it is a
more interesting storv, largely because
of the greater dramatic possibilities.
The Fifteenth century at the time of
the brief struggle between the fanatic
Moslem tribes Jed by the warlike Sul
tan, Mahornmed, against the Greeks of
Eastern Europe under the Byzantine
Emperor, Constantine, gives opportuni
ty for study ami warlike episodes, the
culmination being the attaclf upon RDd
the fall of Constantinople, then the
Christian capital of Greece, a scene
vividly depicting the awful carnage of
that memorable battle. This remark
able scene utilizes the services of an
enormous number of people, and is be
yond queation the apex of all animated
stage pictures.
There will be matinees on Wednes
days and Saturdays, during "The Prince
of India" engagement.
