CAMILLE-mAD8ME' MODJESKA.-TO say
that the Theatre was thronged last night
would give fair idea OF the audience that
assembled to witness the first appearance OF
the distinguished actress Madame Nodes
ka. It was one Of the most brilliant assem-
blages we have ever seen at the Theatre.
Much OF the beauty, intelligence, and aris-
tocracy Of Richmond society was there to
do homage to the Countess Bozenta; and
we hardly suppose one single member OF
that immense gathering went away dissatis-
fed with the result Of the entertainment.
OF course we do not intend in any way to
commend the. play itself. 1t is not what
the ladies and gentlemen OF Richmond de-
sire TO sea- bold and brilliant innovation
that it is; but we know that OF late years
the standard. OF the drama has been lower
ed, and Camille and plays Of that character
rank among the most popular.
This was the cast last night: Camille,
Modieska: Armand DuyaI, Frank Clements; !;
Al. DuvaI, r. G. Wilson; Count de Varvile,
J.W. Carroll; CASTOR Rieux, W. J. Furgu.
son; Gustave. R. B. Mantell; Messenger.
Tannehill; Nanine. Miss Ella Stockton !;
Olympic, Miss Ethel Remson; Nchette,
Miss Josephine Bailey.
The new version OF Dumas's play was well
rendered by the company. Madame Helen
Modjeska is just the woman in appearance,
style, and manner to make an attractive Ca
mile; and although she may not think so,
yet it is true that the severe cold under
which she was laboring rendered her rendi-
ton Of the character more acceptable. She
Is q wonderfulactress Her representation Of
Camille Is as genuine OF oman as we have
ever seen upon the stage. With her the
heart dominates everything, and her de-
votion to the man she loyes-nay, fairly
worships-makes one forget that she has
erred, and exalts her life. It is an
astonishing picture she presents-realis-
tic, captivating. Her foreign accent adds
to the interest her audience feels in her
acting. It is really wonderful rendi-
ton Of a character which refinement
teaches one to abhor. Mr. ClementS's Ar
mand was creditable. but there were imper-
fections in its rendition which were notice
able. Mr. Carroll would have made bet
ter Armand. His Count de Varville was
neither overdrawn nor did it lack spirit.
His performance was very acceptable. Mr..
Wilson'S Mr.. Duval and Mrs. TannehilPs
Nine. Prudence were excellent; in fact, it
is good company, and all did we'll.
20 During the evening Modieska was called
several times before the curtain. repeatedly
encored, and in fact, very warmly received
by her splendid audience; ali OF which she
no doubt fnlly appreciated. We heartily
commend Der as one Of the finest actresses
we have ever had in Richmond, and Ven
ture to say that she will always be warmly
welcomed here. .-....-. - ~

They Escape with Fourteen Days for Lack

When the two disciples of Dick Turpin,
James Murphy and Henry Hennessy, stood up
for hearing in the municipal court yesterday
morning, they looked the sorriest knights OF
the road that were ever called upon to meet the
rebuking finger of outraged justice. There
are highwaymen, and highwaymen, but as
specimens Of the guild the individuals under
consideration are about as far removed from
the simon-pure courtier of the road who dash
ingly exclaims, ''Your money or your life" as
the most unsophisticated fancy could possibly
imagine. A full account of their exploit 1T will
be remembered, appeared in yesterday 8 issue OF
the GLOBE, the main feature of which consist
ed in enticing man named Patois out on the
Mendoza road, where under the influence of
liquor, the victim claimed to having been re-
loved of 1896. The parties Of the first part
were arrested on Thursday evening, njoyine
it was supposed their ill-gotten booty, but yes

the picion that the alleged victim was moth.

that the loss of the above named amount ex,
listed solely in his mind. The case was
called at $50 o'clock, but as there was no pres
| ecution, the prisoners were committed on
general principles to term of fourteen days
each in the county Jail.

A Promiscuous Smash Up.

a damaging runaway took place on Jackson
street Mt II As o'clock yesterday morniag, which
created for short time an exceedingly lively
sensation. At the hour named a horse attached
to one of Carl Bahr's milk wagons took fright
from passing train at the foot of jackson
street, dashing at a furious rate of speed in a
northerly direction on the latter thoroughfare.
The work of destruction commenced at Third
street, where the entire upper portion of the
wagon became separated from the running
gear, which had the effect to materially in
