nootEY's THEATRE.
After four weeks Of not very 1nttosing bus-
incsB tho Fifth Avonuo Cotnpanyllayo loft tho
city. 1t Is certain that such n combination never
before played In Chicago, and 1t may he guessed
that yearb will paas hoIore we sec 10 mnch i1di-
vidua1 talent md general perfection again. Tho
week opened with Oliver Twsst,"a NOW ver-
sion Of tho novel, written by MIR. Daly, which
WIS given Monday. Tuesday, and Thursday
pights. Wednesday night Monsieur Alphonso"
was repeated, Miss Jow ott playing tho part Of
Rayn,onde, heretofore assumed by Miss Ada
Dyaa. Without royscgsng tho strong Bympa-
theto force which tho odor aud moro
flulAhcd artist possoHaeB nGiBB Jewett displayed,
capacity for expressing pathos, aud full
knowledge OF stage Objects. Thoro woro somo
evidences Of want Of study, and occasional CRU
dittes In her method. but these can readily bo
acco,ntcd for by tho fact that Bho had not played
tho part before, aud Was, therefore, ut great
disadvantage. Miss Jewott posgesseB the per-
BonaI force TINT must ariBo from thorough cul-
ture and n remarkably apt intelligence. 1Ier
eocution Is OF the plonsantost description, md
her manner impressive from its qutotuess aud
dccacy. II Is to to regretted that Hho has not
botter opportunities for appearing before Chi
cago audiences, for wo feel satisfied Bho would
have won tho regard and appreciation Of tho
more refined audcritical OF all audience immedi-
a!oly.
