QUEEN'S THEATRE.
"When We Were Twenty-one," at the Queen's Theatre, made an instantaneous success to-day. The story begins with four young society men celebrating their twenty-first birthday. ' At the height of their festivities an infant is brought in. It, is the son of a college chum, both of whose parents have died. The four young fellows adopt the child. In a spirit of fun they betroth the infant to an infant girl, and the boy starts on his journey through life. He is nicknamed "The Imp." At college his career is meteoric. Each^man, still a bachelor, has liis own ideS'of what "The Imp" will startle the world with. Eventually "The Imp" reaches the age of twentyone, and a big dinner is given in his honour. Then comes one of the greatest dramatic surprises ever imagined. But the play ends in a happy manner. The supporting programme ia an excellent one.
