We think all of our readers remember Rose
Wood and the Lewis Morrison Dramatic Compa-
ny. They were here last October and gave sue h
fine rcndcringof "Frou Frou,' al which time
Rose Wood was repeatedly applaudcd and called
before the curtain. Since this company were
here they have been ON an extensive trip west,
and have been very successful, more so than amy
dramatic troupe now travelling. The following
from the st. Joseph (Mo) GaaHc will show how
they were received in that place:
Miss Rose Wood presented Camille" at Too
lies Opera House last night, supported by Lew
is Morrison'S superb dramatic company, and new
er did larger or more appreciative audience
greet draMatic organization in this city before.
Miss Wood, in the leading role of Camille"
kept the house in smiles of delight, during the
first part of the play, with her merry laughs,
dancing eyes and bewitching ways, but her act
ing in the stronger parts toward the last, was SUI
pcrb. As iymand Mr.. Morrison is very power
iul, and his facial expression is excellent En-
core after encore followed the falling of the cur
tain, and finally the audience became so enthusi-
astic that at the close of the fourth act, Miss
Wood thanked the ''most brilliant asscmblage"
for the generous reception, and bouquets of flow
crs Were shOwcred on her from every quarter OF
the house, which she gathered to her breast and
kissed passionatcly. She thanked the press OF
the city most heartily, and characterized her re
mas Gift never to he forgotten. Her death scene
ut the close was the most perfect piece of acting
our people have ever seen. We regret exceed
ingy that neither time nor space will permit of
a more lengthy report but suffice ii to say that
when Miss Wood and her support come to st.
Joseph again, they will receive Just such anoth-
or brilliant reception AS that rendered them last
night. Success to them
They return here on Tuesday night, Feb. II,
and at the request of several citizens here will
play Camille" and we have no hcsitancy in
saying that this play will he the finest thing in
fhc house this season. In regard To prices We
learn that the company usually have had one dol
lar for reserved seats, but Mr.. Sherwood told
them that - cents was all he should allow any
go npany to charge in his house, consequently
the prices usual IS cents first floor, 80 cents
second floor, and no extra charge for reserved
seats, witch may be obtained at Simon Bros mu-
sic
