The following is a , brief ; synopsis
of "Ten Nights in a Barroom," which
will be shown at the Star theatre today:
-At the age -of twenty-one, JoeMor.
gan inherits tils -lather 3 grist mill,
Soo n a f ter : he weds Fannie 0 we 11 , ' on e
of the prettiest and sweete-t girls in
the" village, of Sedarville. Happy-go
lucky Joe-soon feels the,. responsibility
of the mill irksome, ar.d he engages his
companion, Simon blade at manager,
leaving Joe Free to indulge in his desire
for drink and ldlin s. . -
Joe spent ills money .'freely (as do all
the alleged good fellows when they have
it) but the shrewd, business like Simon
Slade saved " las, and when - Joe. . who
his mortgaged the mill, is unable to
meet the note when due, Simon advan
ces the money, thus buying ' half in
terest, in the . business. Having Jess
to do . than , before, weak-willed Joe
slides the downward path, ' -,
Through all these darkening days
the ever-loving and devoted Fannie
ll,t
clings to her oi ilute hu-Laud without
a word of reproach; even ths birth of a
baby girl, whom-Joe worshipped, did
not stop him from his downward course.
Slade had sold his share in the mill to
Judge Hammond,' and had opened a
tavern. r Jae became his best customer,.
Spending - hi 'money lavishishly. Joe
was a. welcome visitor to the t saloon,
and when he lost the mill, he mortgaged
his home, the proceeds of which went
in the same, manner as the rest of his.
money, "OVER THE "BAR." ' '
Eventually the time came when he
had to meet the mortgage on his home,
and beine unabb to meet the obliea-'
tion he: knows not where. O turn ': f r
assistance, except to hi friend Sirro.r
siaae, ; witn wnom ne naa spent rasi
money When he called upon Simon, :fjAJTfmf A - Jav lirlr
he found no higet the Simon Slade'lI6Iliy '-01 I'lvv- Li.k
of boyhood daj's, but a hard-heartsd
tavern keeper, with no thoughts of PlChlCS I0F YCUT pICCIC
the past, who termed to lend the needed
amount and ga .-e Joe to 'understand,
that be was no longer a , Welcome visi
tor at the tavera. ' .
Joe awakes to a realization of what
a fool he has made of himself, but now
it is too late. ' In a short while, his horn 3
is sold, he and his wife and child are
thrown out in the world, without home
and friends. Joe, who now has sunk to
the level of thi village drunkard, tries
to drown his thoughts in drink, his
faithful wife is compelled to do washing
and other drudgery. '' She becomes
dangerously ill, and instead of going to
get Joe, as she had been accustomed to
da on vari his occasions, she "sends her
child, now a girl of tin, to the saloon
to bring her father home. . At the time
of her entrance into the saloon, Joe is
having an altercation with Slade, They
come to blows, Slade attemptajo strike
Morgan with a bottle. : Joe's daughter,
in an effort' to save ' her father, steps
between the two msn, and receives the
fatal blow. Jse, frenzied with grief
whan he realizes what Slade has done,
attempts to strangle him.
Joe takes little Mary in his arms,
and rushes home with her. . His wife
realizes what has happened and fjr
the first time since their . marriange
she upraids him. , - The excitement is
toff much and Joe is seized with deli
rium tremens. After daya of agony and
torture, : he i brought to a realization
of what has happened, -but only in
time-to see little Mary 'die from the"
cruel ' blow of Simon Wade. , Before
her dearth she extracted from hsr father
a solemn vow that he would never
drink again. . . -
