The OPP era House.

o W era House.
Mr.. John McCu' Tough and his excellent
company must have been gratifed with
'he manner in which their gratifying
weeks puslr less concluded last night.
ihere mad ,een an appreciative audience
at Inc inaf inee to see the tragedian make
ms nrs', appearance as Ingomar in st.
raul. The presentation of ''Ingomar" was
hlghiyJ creditable. Mr.. McCullough's i'm
Pers onatlon of the barbarian, though not
as perfect as he will ultimately make it,
Is. still quite good, and harmouized with
" ilss Forsyth's Parthenia. Miss Forsyth
may be described as one of the most tai
ented of the truly pretty women on the
stage. Among actresses of talent she is
not one OF the least talented. Among wO-
men OF beauty, she is one of the most
beautiful and graceful. Her very rare
charms of person are charmingly blended
with her histrionic gifts. She can never
be Cushman, a Ristori, a Janauschek.
But she will be remembered as one of the
fa1rest In stage presence and most chaste
and dove-like in style. This is certainly
glory enough for her. Last night "The
| Gladiator called out the largest house of
the season. In this play Mr.. Mccullough
|
his natural endowments for the part, he is
continually improving it. A man may be
great In several characters and still not
have them perfect Mr.. Mccullough is a
great actor, with something yet to learn,
as wise men are never too old to learn.
Leave him to relish his fame by realizing
that there are worlds in art yet uncon-
quered, and by knowing that what he per-
forms is appreciated and understood, as
| well as applauded. He was called
before the curtain after every act last
night, and some of his severest critics
were among the loudest in the encores
The company goes to Minneapolis for a
week.
| SOL. SMITH RUSSELL.
