week. This will be its first stock 
production in this city. The drama 
iS a recent starring vehicle of Viola 
Allen, with whom James O’Neil shar- 
ed honors. The play typifies a con- 
flict between religious duty and hu- 
man passion, and the arguments of- 
fered on both sides have lost neither 
force nor interest. In “The White 
Sister” this conflict is so distinctly de- 
fined as to make sympathy at all times 
intense. Angeli, the heroine, has been 
betrothed to Captain Severi, a gallant 
ofcer, who is supposed to have per- 
ished in an African massacre. Brok- 
enhearted, she embraces the sister- 
hood, and takes her vows, in ignor- 
ance of the fact that her sweetheart 
still lives, this truth being concealed 
by Countess Chairmonte, a jealous 
rival. Five years later the Captain 
returns, to find Angela as Sister 
Gionanna. He seeks her behind the 
convent walls but the sister true to 
her vows and her religion, although 
still loving him, bids him go. 
EXPERIMENT IN CARRYING THE MalIts 
The House Postoffice and Post 
Routes committee have approved a 
measure providing for the practical 
trial of government ownership of rail- 
way mail cars. The bill appropriates 
$100;000 to be used by the postmaster 
general in buying and operating a 
number of cars. Not content ,with 
this innovation, the committee have 
also favorably reported a measure to 
appropriate $100,00 for experiments 
in carrying mail by aeroplane.
