MEMPHIS THEATER.-Robertson's wei
arranged comedy of Ours was presented
last evening by the Wyndham compan.
in the most successful manner. TIL
character of Mary Netley," which Mis-
Moore so cleverly and charmingl,
enacted last season, was portrayed b.
Miss Young in an effective and artist,
manner. 1t is difficult matter to settle
the question of superiority between the
two actresses; each has her superior
point of merit. In Miss Young We
see the higher dramatic talent, while the
natural acting, aided by silvery voice
made the representation by Miss Moore
almost irresistibly pleasing. 1t is prob
ably that to The Lancers we will have to
look for the test of superiority. Mr..
Wyndham's Hugh Chalcot was a su-
perior piece of acting. The sang troid
and Independence of the cynical English
man, beneath which his generous nature
was concealed, were well portrayed by
Wyndham, while the by-play and dia-
logue between him and Mary
Netley" were elegantly rendered.
The g Angus McAlister, of Ours" by
Mr.. Fitzpatrick, was decided improve
ment on last years performance. The
character was correctly conceived and
represented, and created the most IA
vorable impression upon the audience.
Mr.. Ryan, as Sergeant Jones, the
hero Of the twins, was irresistibly comic
and natural. The Lady Shendron" Of
Miss johnson was quite good, as was
also the "Sir Alexander" of Mr.. Gid
dens As blanche Haye," Miss Sid
ney Cowell made the most favor
able impression by her piquant and
arch style of acting. The Wyndham
company is undoubtedly the best that
has ever appeared in our city, and their
representations of pure and unadulter-
ated English comedy deserve the encour-
agement of our people. Tonight Caste
will be repeated play which created
no little excitement on Monday night.
All lovers of good acting and high COM
edy ought to be in attendance.
BLIND ToM.-The inclemency Of the
weather prevented many music-loving
people from attending the concert
given by Blind Tom, at the Greenlaw
Opera House last evening. The wonder
full performance Of this musical wonder
on the piano is a puzzle to musical pro
fessors, as well as TO the public. Last
night a well known musician played a
difficult air Of his own composition on
the piano, which was listened to by
Blind Tom. At the conclusion Of the
piece he seated himself at the piano,
and with the greatest rapidly and cor
rectness, played the Professors gem
without hesitation.
BRooN's .-This little opera house is
becoming quite popular. The manager
