date for hlstrionic honors. Miss Farrar Is native
OF Virginia. but for several years past has resided In
this city where OF late she has assiduously pursued
a course of dramatic study, and, her effort last
evening showed, has labored with every prospect
OF ultimate success. The young lady has fno
stage presence, propossessng features, and quiet
agreeable manners. She had chosen for her first
appearance the boards the difficult dual role Of
Lady Isabel and Madame TI,ie q character In which
many talented actresses, among them Mrs Bowers
Clara Morris. and lucille Western, have, achieved
eminent success While 1t would be unfair TO draw
comparisons between these and tho young debu-
tan Is but just to say that Miss Farrar did re.
markably we'll she showed plainly that she has
considerable talent and gave fine promise OF future
success, ifsho will apply herself with diligence and
perseverance, to the arduous task Of holding the
mirror up to nature" Her acting for one so new
to the stage Is remarkably free from mannerisms
and rant and gives ample evidence of fair con.
coption Of the part undertaken. In the scene with
the dying child the test scene OF the play Miss
Farrar displayed considerable dramatic power, and
the doath.bed scene in the last oct was rendered In
the highest degree Affecting. Miss Farrars acting
monstrated their delight by repeated aud pro-
longed applause and the presentation OF many
magnificent floral offerings. We wish her every
success.
Tho support afforded Miss Farrar was very able.
Miss Annie ID. Ware was superb as Miss COrnev, and
Miss Manic Wallace very pleasing as Barbara
Hdre Mr. Giles Shine rendered the part OF Archi
bald Carlisle in very acceptable manner, and 1t Is
TO DO regretted that so able and painstaking an
actor cannot be retained MS n regular acqu
stion IN our midst. Miss Dora Dufour, as Joyce;
Mr.. Downing, as Sir Francis JerisOn Mr..
Mr.. Burton, as lord Mount Serern Mr.. Harry b.
Robinson, as Richdrd Hare, and last but not least,
their respective roles and the performance may be
said 10 have been successful in every respect.

A Timely Rescue from Drowning,

Timely RESCUE from DrOwnIng.
Last Wednesday tho Masonic fraternity Of
UuiontOwn and portion of the Navy.Yard
gave an excursion TO Blackstone Island.
Among the sports by which the day was made
pleasant was that of bathing. A young man
McCathran was one of the most venturesome
OF those in the water, and during some of his
feats lie got beyond his depth and was seized
with cramps. The other batbers, npOn hearing
his cries for help, became too frightened to 60
to bis assistance. At this moment Mr. Oscar
L. Huss jumped into boat and rowed to tho
rescue. As young McCathran was sinking for
the last time Mr.. Huss grabbed him, and, afte I
considerable trouble, succeeded In getting him
ashore, He soon revived under treatment,
and was able to return home with the excur.
sOnists, whose fun was marred somewhat by
the occurrence
