his trip to the Philippines and of his
promise to the king of the islands of
his daughter's liand in marriage. His
sou, going through the old niuu'b
diary, finds that he has only boon in
Frisco, and telling his sister's sweet
heart, who impersonates "Wells," the
supposed king of the Philippines, and
claims the daughter as his bride. Ev
ery scene in this play is a scream.
The McKenzie Merry-Makers offer
a prize of $." to anyone who can sit
through the performance of the bill,
"King of the Philippines" without
laughing.
