Show 1 THE ARGUS. 7 may be termed a little risque. It gives the funny case of a young man supposed to be a baronets legitimate son, but when he is about to marry , the story is told that he is a foundling. Neither his sweetheart nor her father care much about that flaw in his parentage, but the prospective declares that the wedding shall not take place until he discovers a respectable mother. Therefore, he and his sweethearts father go out in quest of information of a satisfactory mother. Their search is rich in racy adventures of the sort that usually happen in Parisian farces, although they are located in London ; and they follow one another fast and furiously.

Not only has it been deservedly popular with the conference visitors, but the home people have renewed an acquaintance with it. Mr. Edwards plays the title role in a masterly way. In fact it is one of his best roles and he puts his heart in it. I have always thought the part of the Spider gave an actor the best opportunity to display his powers of any part in the play, and since seeing Mr. Kyle I am more convinced than ever. Mr. Kyle plays this part as it is seldom played and even wins applause from the audience. Miss Bateman has a part that catches and holds the interest and sympathy of the audience, and in such a role she is always successful. Mr. Hatch gives the ever faithful Jacques a faithful portrayal and the remainder of the company appear to good advantage. The stage settings are good and the scenic effects very fine.
