"Human Hearts.” The story of “Human Hearts” that beautiful poetical play of the simple life of the homely folk of rural Arl> ansas, deals with the happenings to honest Tom Ix)gan, the village black smith. Tom dwells with his parents : In a picturesque spot of the Arkansas hills. There he hag been pursuing his vocation, living a plain simple life; the mainstay of his aged parents; beloved by all who knew him, and respected above his fellows. On a certain unlucky day, there came to the village a beautiful woman, a temptress, unprincipled and black at heart, but with a fascination that proved to be the undoing of poor Tom Logan. He immediately proceeded to fall In love with her, asked her to marry him. and she became his wife. Happy in his fancied security, Tom lavished all the affection on the wo man that was possible to an honest heart like his, hut it was not returned. One day there appears on the scene a villain, the former lover of the wo man. who commits a cowardly mur der and with the assistance of the woman, fastens the crime on Tom, who is tried and convicted for the crime of another. Tom is seRtenced to State’s prison for life, and the vil lainous pair congratulate themselves that they have not only gotten rid of him, but have secured immunity from the law for themselves. But Providence hag been watching over the blacksmith, and unseen inifuences are at work to thwart their plan. Humble friends of Tom do not forget him and their endeavors to bring the case to the notice of the governor of Arkansas are finally successful. The villains are unmasked and Tom is proved innocent. The play is a pa thetic one with many thrilling scenes, but there is a very strong comedy vein running through it which gives the necessary contrast. Manager Nankevill has provided a most adequate stage investiture for the play, and has engaged an admir able company for its portrayal. "Human Hearts” will play an en gagement of one night at the Star Theatre next Monday night. liv.-.vv.v^.v.vv^.v.Sv.vv.y.T.vv.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v-v'CTl 1 A. 4 1 Buy A Piedmont Wagon?
