New MEMPHIS THEATER. - Cecil
Rush made her appearance before /
Memphis audience last night in Eds
LynRej OF, the EdrPs Daughter. O
this young lady, we may say that bel
articulation is correct but her sentences
are like Mrs. Southworth's stories, toe
long drawn out. Although free from the
Charlotte Thompson whine, she has
some OF that lady's a~ffectation. She
played her part very a~cceptably, and we
predict, will become a favorlte here. Mr..
Lowery made hts first appearance last
night, as Archibald Carlyls,p and il
should be his last. A more wretched
piece of acting we have seldom wit
messed. His stage positions are bad, his
voice low where it should be loud and
LOUD where it should be lew. Mr.. Frank
Roche did 4" Sir Francis Levison - very
well, blu 1t Is pun impression that he
would have played Archibald CARLYLE y
better. Mrs. Moore made q good "Miss
Corny," while the song Of Miss Fanny
Pierson who played barbara Hare ~
was encored. The balance Of the COM
pany filled ths bill. Tonight offers the
Long Strike.

the congregation took the matter in
hand. Mr.. G.. II. Judah, connected with
the house of Walker Bros. Go, was ap-
pointed Chairman of the Committee of
management, and will be pleased to
receive any contributions which may be
offered. 1t is a well known fact that our
Hebrew fellOw-citlzens never fail In an
affair ofthis kind. They do not do things
by halves. The coming Festival will be
the most agreeable affair Of the season.
Our citizens, of all classes, should not fail
10 p~atronize this Fair, and thereby aid 8
good cause.
GRAND CoNCERT.--There will be a
grand vocal and instrumental concert
THIS evening for the benefit of the
United Hebrew Benevolent Association,
the Memphis Club Hall, corner Union

cellent reasons why our citizens should

n this city and another, by doing SO

offered relief during the late endemic
