".The plummy and the Humming Bird" is a four-act .play by Isaac Henderson, of , a type which requires for its successful production a company of a good deal more than average ability. The comedy had a most successful run at Wyndham's Theatre, in London. Following upon the production of "Tho Mummy and the Humming Bird," there will be staged tho dramatised version. of Locke's fine novel, " The Morals of Sir Marcus Ordcyne." The book, itself is almost a classic, excelling, as it does, in construction. and literary elegance. Its story easily adapts itself to successful dramatisation, tho situations being very well worked /nit by the author. A synopsis of tho book has already been given in 'our columns.- Tho play will run for four nights only. ORGAN RECITAL. On Wednesday afternoon ' next Mr. J. Maughan Bamett will give another, recital at the Town Hall. Tho programme is a very fine selection. ' including Handel's overture'■ to "Xerxes."
