Of all the romantic dramas seen last vear. few were as well re ceived as this beautiful story of j the Southland. It is not only unusual in dramatic construction but is magnificent in its scenic investure. 1 he play treats 01 a time when magnificence was vis ible on every band and of a peo pie who denied their women folks nothing. Passionate, emotional to an extreme, hieh-tempered, the Caslilians of Mexico lived picturesquely as well as wore brilliant costumes. It is a s'torv of the days "When Knighthood was in Flower' in old Mexico, taken from lew Wallace's "The Fan God." "A Royal Slave" is remembered by Corvallis theater patrons ah one of the very best attractions here lat season, the company if better than ever.-and is sure ti draw a ciowded- house.
