"A Midnight Bell," Charles H. Hoyt's new comedy, was presented for the first time in Boston at the Boston theatre last evening. The play is presented in four acts, each scene being exceedingly realistic, especially the school house which is a good reproduction of an old fashioned country school. The cast is strong throughout but Martin Tripp the country boy, and Squire Olcott meet with the greatest favor and keep the audience in laughter throughout the performance. The story is of a bank robbery and the real robber is not found out until the ringing of the midnight bell by the sexton who becomes locked in the belfry.
