DENIS KEHOE COMPANY

"THE INTRUDER"

The modern play "The Intruder" drew another full house at the Theatre Royal last evening. This, "chosen for the last night of the Denis Kehoe Company's season in Nelson, was excellently performed, the audience displaying .great enthusiasm throughout. As Henry Gilsey, a wealthy New Yorker who adopts and educates a beautiful girl from a mining town, Denis Kehoe was again a huge success and always kept his audience keenly interested. Miss Frances Kayher, who ha'l by no means an easy part to play as tne uneducated girl, made a splendid impression. The role of Edith Gilsey, a high society lady wns in the capable hands of Miss Gwen. Dorise. The part of Dr. Barlow, tlie family physician, who gels into some very intriguing situations, was undertaken by Ronald Ri/ey, who filled the bill perfectly. The role of Peter CrandelT was well played by Bernard Beeby. The various other p'jarts were also well sustained by Chas. Keognn as James, Helen Fergus (Mrs Crandell) and Lester Carey (Sing). The orchestra under Mr Percy Kehoe rendered several items which added greatly to the evening's entertainment. The company will pay a return visit to Nelson.and presnt "Mother Machree" next week.

The company will appear at the Oddfellows' Hall, Wakefield, this evening, in the popular "Mother Machree," and country residents should take advantage of the opportunity of seeing the talented artists in this charming Irish drama.
