Academy of Music,

| The performance OF Plque was we'll attended
| last night, and went all along very smoothly
as might be expected from actors who have
played the same piece as often as this com
pany has gone through Pique. Miss Fanny
| Davenport seems particularly adapted TO this
play. She is admirably proportional and
naturally possesses that naughty air and
| manner which the author has given TO Mabel
| RenffeW.
| Like all the Davenport women. Miss Fanny
| Ia beautiful, and we believe that her fair form
has had not little to do with her success as
an actress. She is splendid eloeutionist,
walks the stage like goddess, Is very grace
full in every motion, correct in her slightest
gesture and powerful In the essentially dra-
tnatio parts whore passionate expression Is
| required.
She appears to lis, however, to lack In sem
timent and facial expression. 1t would seem
as II her chiselled features refused tn relax at
any time and mar the harmony OF their
classic arrangement by those every varying
changes necessary To the expression of The
vari ls phases of the drama.
In the scene where she asks forgiveness of
HufU Stun8ish after her brutal treatment of
that sweet girl which Is the turning point
Of the drama, naamneh as 1t ls the fret oc-
casion In which Mabet has a chance of show
ing che has q feeling heart. she Is weak. L. 10
a movement from the heart which she falls
To express, ana which II she did, as Indicated
by the author, would never fail to bring down
the audience As 1t happened, however, the
critical point was passed over and the spec
tators remained cold. The public, not us. are
responsible for the criticism.
Mr.. Edmund k.Gollier as Mdtther Sdndish,
for what purpose we know not, had made
himself un n good likeness of BeeCher and
went well through his part.
Miss Emma Pierce made n sweet Mary
iStdndtsh interpreting with much grace aud
feeling the delicate intentions of the author
In this painting Of pure, lovely and self
saoiflcing woman.
Miss Emma Madern rs Rnitch played quite
intelligently, and deserves praise for not
overriding her role as we have seen 1t done
too often before
Miss Minnie Monk as Aunt Dorothy was
good.
As for the rest Of the performers we will only
say that the two thieving tfamps, Vessels and
Day. seem TO have taken too much of their
theatrical education from variety plays, and
that Harry Hawk aud d. II. Chase as Sammy
Dimptc aud ThorsbB GBH would do much
better Ii they did not attempt to play the
part of clowns where they are simply Intend
ed TO represent foolish young men, but we'll
behaved, such as can be met In all parlors
where the best society receives Its friends.
This evening Pique will be repeated and
tomorrow at the matinee Frou Frou, with
Miss Fanny Davenport as Gttbefte.
