His son becomes a prodigal, marries the actress, and a regular mix up *y-"S -*&***>** v^**^**?* *k ,'t -i *yf results. The complications are of the most amusing kind and the fun is intense from start to finish. To properly interpret a farce comedy, requires the services of competent specialty artists, for the success of such a play depends larely on the introduction of novelties. The company representing "The Prodigal Father,', ha? been carefully chosen, and the rmny songs, medleys and dances are said to be rendered in such style as to call forth enthusiastic applause. Xynn Welcher, who was starred in the play for the past three seasons, is said to b) one of tbe best character actors iu iigiti mate or farce comedy. Miss Rose Mel ville, who essumes the leading role is a young woman of prepoeessing appear* ance, and decidedly clever actress and a decidedly clever imitation of "Sis Hop kins, the Jay Girl of Slab Hollow," one of the bits of toe vaudeville stage. A- Clever Thief. A score or more of butchers, errand* boys and patrons of the-Farmers' Mar ket, on Broad street, above Columbia1 avenue, participated in ani exciting chase after a thief yesterday morning,, and, though the culprit escaped, they managed to recover the stolen goods. The central figure in the- episode*was- "Buster," a big Newfoundland dog, owned by James- P. Lins, of No. 1642 North Fifteenth street. Buster has been trained ta carry his master's meat market basket in his mouth, and yes terday, having wandered around to the Farmers' Market by himself, he espied a basket similar to that owned by Mr. Lins, standing upon the floor in front of Butcher Mintzer's stall. It belonged to one of Mintzer's customers, but Bus ter imagined that it was his duty to carry it home, and, seizing the handle in Kis jaws, he trotted off with the prize at full speed. "Hi!" yelled' Butcher Mintzer, and a chorus of on lookers at once took up the shout. The' racket only alarmed the canine. He ran down Broad street with the crowd in full pursuit, but hung on to the basket. A butcher boy who often de livers meat at Lins' home and who has a speaking acquaintance- with" Buster, encountered' the dog just as he was bolting around the corner of Columbia avenue. He sized' up the situation at & glance and. quietly said: "Drop it, sir!" The command' was one whichi Buster was accustomed to hear, sojhe instantly set the basket down on- the pavement and made for home, withi an- air of consciousness of duty well performed.Philadelphia Recordi Hie Was WUllngi Tramp-nSay, boss, wed ye giv* at poor feller a dime for a drink?1 Now, I do hope you'll try and be pleasant to old Mrs. Tubbs, John. ^llyf'H'm! you told me Just now to try and be natural."-Ally Sioper. %jtdmt Oldj fcportWhy, cert.
