AMusEMEsH.-of the amusements
that have been offered TO the people OF
Wheeling the past season, none can com.
pare with that delightful and romantic
drama Of "a Heroine in Rags" and no
star has appeared on the boards to bet
ter advantage and with more success
than Miss Efie Ellsler in the character
OF Jeannetts BrdShear, flower girl. Miss
Ellsler is an artist by nature, and in the
roles essayed by her there is total ab.
sence OF that affectation 80 common
among actresses, which to great
degree mars the effect intended to be pro.
duced. The character Is one we'll suited
for the lady, and an Interpretation OF It is
beyond criticism. So near perfection does
she approach that the auditors whole
soul goes out with the poor flower girl,
and one loses his identity for the time
being, and really imagines that what he
sees being acted upon the stage before
him Is indeed scene in real life. Miss
Ellsler comes to US recommended, not
only as an artist, but az lady OF the
highest order, and we bespeak for her a
flattering reception. The above play will
be produced Monday night, and "Fanch.
on1 Tuesday night. Box sheet open at
Adams & Lucas on Friday morning.
