THE DRAMA IN CHURCH.

A CHICAGO paper announces as a novel method of raising money for church purposes, the following: "The great moral French drama entitled 'Married Life' will come off Friday evening of this week at the Baptist Church. The dramatic company have made arrangements whereby the net proceeds will be given to the Baptist building-fund, and it is hoped that all who feel an interest in the upbuilding of public improvements will be present to give in their mite. The popularity of this play is too well known to give it greater praise. At the conclusion of this play one of the most laughable and moral farces ever played will follow, entitled 'A Regular Fix.' The whole exercise to be interspersed with some choice instrumental music. At the close of the concert exercises the friends of the pastor are invited to tarry and have an oyster supper and a general good time. The Elder and lady will be there to make it pleasant for you."—Selected.
