WHY GIRLS LEAVE HOME.
The story oi Why Girls Leave Home,
which will be the attraction at Hoyt's
Theatre on Friday, January to. is said
to be one oi the unusual dramatic
plays oi great intensity. The story is
that of a young and beautliul girl
Whose character is misunderstood by
her older brother, who seeks to drive
instead oi coaxing her and she is in-
duced to believe that there Is more in
a "Bohemian" liie than in the quiet
life oi her borne. She is saved from
the evils oi that kind oi a lite by good
friends and a constant lover and all
ends happily with virtue triumphant
and villainy exposed and punished.
Messrs. Vance and Sullivan are said
to have spared no expense in staging
the play; the scenic investlture being
very elaborate, while the members of
the company are people especially
suited to the characters they portray.

The Cosgrove Stock Company pre-

Lloyd displayed much versatility in

greatly from the role Mr. Lloyd por~
trayed on the previous evening, but
he handled it in the artistic manner
