Their Production of "Heart and Crown,
Last Evening-Future Performances.
The Lingards produced for the first time in
this city, last evening, Mr.. Archie D. Gordon's s
new 1, historical drama, written expressly for
them, entitled s'Heart and Crown. it Is
based on the sad career OF Mary, Queen of
Scots, and, like all plays of modern times.
written to order. is distinctively one-charac.-
ter: drama. 1t is fulllof dramatic incident and
thrilling situations. 1t could not we'll be other
wise when laid in such a time as the brief
reign OF Mary and country like Scotland, vet
IN some y respects it lacks Co
herency. This fault is. however
counteracted by the Familiarity of audiences
generally with the incidents of Scottish history
at that period, and the somewhat incongruons
grouping Of Incidents widely separated in a SIM
gle scene is hardly noticed. r -. .s' 80
= Alice Dunning Lngard's personationl N Of
Queen Mary is a conception worthy of all
praise. Endowed by nature with rare beauty
and queenly figure, she combines with them a
high order of dramatic talent and culture. She
enters with her whole soul into the loves and
passions of the unfortunate queen-into all her
schangeful moods. Her air throughout
was was \. that of "a. queen beneath which
and semetimes Fsurpasaing it in sfervor
were the qualities : Z Of IS true WS woman man
hood The play of her features throughout
were expressive, and her every movement full
of grace.iraAs whole the character is crea-
hon Of her. own, in which she succeeds in con
ceaing many of ,s the crudities of the manu-
script with rare adroitness, Mr.. Wm Horace
Iingard made a good Darnley. The character
is essentially brutal, but it ia invested

It Is capable. Miss Dickey Lingard
played the somewhat insignificant role Of the
glpsey with much grace and naivette. She
will have better opportunity of displaying
ner dramatic powers this evening, when she
VIII assume prominent part. OF the rest of
the company We will say nothing except to re-
mark that it was fortunate for the enjoyment
OF the audience that "Heart and Crown" is a
one-character drama. sA5,ss ~
/, The pa -I[ingard sketches by VIM. Horace were
thoroughly enjoyable and amusing. Mr..
Llngard is an excellent mimic and can not give
too many of his sketches, although be might
avoid the tedious wait between the close Of the
drama and the beginning of his specialties
much to the qualification of his audience. s.
Tonight new comedy, written expressly
Tor the Lingards, entitled 'Jujubes," !" will be
presented with Miss Dickey Lingard in: the
leading role. The comedy is highly spoken of
by those who have read it, and we have no
Doubt 1t Will deserve the most liberal patron
