The Fiiteenth-street Presbyterian church was
crowded last night to Its utmost capacity by an
appreclatlye audience, who had assembled to
witness the debut OF a number Of ladies' and

tions, which were beautifully produced and sus-
tanned, were: '.Interview of John Knox aud
Mary Queen OF ScOts;" "Tcn Virgins" "Draw-
Ing RaIions and taking the Oath;" "Gipsy
Camp "Falth, Hope and Charity anu Nuns at

fully deserved the warm plauiits bestowed by

manner In which the tableaux were presented.
