! Mile Rhea is one of the most beautiful
women upon the stage to-day. She has
figure that would serve as q model for any
sculptor. and her every movement and
every attitude is the perfection OF grace
and art. MOdjeska or Bernhardt cannot
/ equal the finish of her work, while Clara
Morris. with all her intensity, can
not show such power rs NIL Rhea
l threw into her part last night. Yet
from beginning TO end there was an
entire absence Of ranting and heroics, and
I IN ever present naturalneSs that won every
heart, and drew the tribute of tears from
: many eyes, especially while making her
/ heroic and wholly unselfiSh sacrifice. Her
| English is not much marred by foreign
| accent. and her words, uttered in Sweet
and musical though powerful voice, are as
/ resdily distinguished as those OF any other
| sctress. Her toilets are superb-we believe
| that is the word. Ii We we're Jenkins We
| might tell more about them; but all We can
saw is that they looked as if they were APP
| propriate to the model of female beauty
| who wore them. and that the ladies in our
| vicinity were delighted with them.
