In the happiest manner imaginable, and ar

first ones that we must defer an apprecia.
tton OF 1t to another occasion, when we hope
to do justice to the performers. Miss Nelson
as Juiet was 9 revelation and an
accomplishment In the powerful parts
Of the tragedy which, notwithstand-
already expressed In unmeasured terms. we
had almost dared to doubt. After listening
to her last evening In the interview with
Friar Lawrence and IN the ''potion" scene,
we believe that there Is nothing impossible to
this brilliant actress, who is probably the
only one In this country that can claim pre-
eminence az q delineator Of Shakesperean
heroines.
The programme for next week will be q
rich one, including as it does.As You Like It,
Measure for Measure, Lady OF Lyons and the
Hunchback, Nelson as Rosdlind, Isabel,
Pauline and Julia.
To-day at the matinee and at night Twelfth
Night, with Nelson In her exquisite char
acter Of Viola.
