Much curiosity and interest is being aroused by the production of "Preserving Mr Panmure" on the 15th and ' 16th of this month. Some five months ago a few well-known amateurs, ambitious enough to rush to produce good, modern drama, formed a society known as The Players, for that" purpose. When it was decided to devote the profits of the first production to tho College Library fund, the students, threw themselves whole-heartedly .into the enterprise. This play is described as a very clever work of characterisation, and abounds in comic situations Tlie dialogue is "very amusi-jg. but without any straining after-effects, which in so many other comedies turns characters into mere puppets. Though one may not love all tbe- persons of tho play, one cannot fail to "be amused at the desperate efforts they are all unconsciously set to making, to preserve Mr Panmure from the' consequences of falling away from grace. The Players, are taking their task very seriously, and have spared no time, pains, or money to make the acting, staging, and dressing worthy of a Pinero play. The box plan is now open at the Dresden, and day ; sales are at the Toy Cave. LABOUR CONFERENCE. —__ 4 _— . YESTERDAY'S PROCEEDINGS. (r_ESS ASSOCIATION' TELEGRAM.) .' WELLINGTON, July 10.
