METROPOLITAN THEATER. Aid
rich aud PaTslse company appeared at the
theater last evening to a fair-sized audience
in Barley Campbell's play of - Ny Partner"
TIE company embraces some excellent mate
rial. Louis Aldricb, who came first to the
coast years ago George d. Chaplin, who
some years ago was wei known as promi-
4 nent actor in San Francisco; while C. t.
/ Parsloe, admirable imitator of the China
man as known in California J. W. Hague,
the villain of the play-sood in the part !; w.
| l.. Dennis, and Misses GoldthwGite, Baker
and Laurens, are the new people who have
! prominent parts in the play. Aiessrs. Aldrich
and Chaplin have the burden OF the drama
upon them, aid both are equal to the demand.
Aldrieh personates the miner of the early
day-ths rough, good-hearted fellow, whose
! word was as good as his bund-a character
such as Bret Harts and writers of his type
delight in. The play is 4 melndrama; The
/ scenes are located in the far northern mining
region, and the time is the pioneer era. It
has a thin plot, but ons by no means
improbable. IL is, in fact, a story
in action such as "a certain class
of writers of fiction delight in when
depicting scenes of the early days in Califor-
MIA It makes small pfetense to literary
merit. Il plays havoc with tine methods Of
trying criminals il California Courts, and
shows how little knowlejge Mr. Campbell
has of our system Of jurisprudence. But
that is of small Importance. For the lovers
of the melodramatic, and the admirers of the
romances Of the mines, the play has strong
attractions. It is of The kind that draws
nowadays. and will urd5ubtsdly run well
here. It is certainly wei! played by the pres
ent troupe, which does not exhibit weakness
in any part of It's composition. The same
piece again this evening.
