EAST TLYNNE-MIss ADA GRAY.

Tuesday night we will have new version
of East Lynne by Miss Ada Gray. The
Augusta, Ga, Chronicle and Constitution
alist of Oct 21st, 1882, says:
The record of Miss Ada Gray's appearance
in Augusta is almost as pathetic as the
character she SO faithfully represents. 1t
has been her misfortune to encounter in
clement weather during every visit to this
city, so that her acting here has not been
fully appreciated. The audience at the op-
era house last night might be called a fair
one, considering the weather. Certainly
we are led to believe that under diler-
ent circumstances fine house would have
greeted troupe which gives the play in
style at once so elegant and complete. Miss
Ada Gray is pherhaps the finest Lady
Isabel now on the stage. She has grown
into the character into which she has placed
her whole soul, and has almost etched into
her life the woe and the WEAKNESS of the
unfortunate heroine of East Lynne.
Throughout five artistic and exacting acts,
one can detect nothing forced or affected in
her impersonation. The bearing of Lady
Isabel, the bride, is as artless and as cap
tivating as the grief of Madame Vine is
soul-stirring and pathetic. We should say
ILdl N1lSS 1Idy OACC1o al TIC SSuIicE 0IuO-
tions of JOY, jealousy and pain for the
hand of genius is more subtle in the weav-
ing of the frost work than in the raging of
the storm. Still, the more exalted and ab-
sorbing passages of the play are met with
a full womanly spirit and strength, which
call up before them the enthusiasm of her
hearers. She is perfect mistress of every
conception of the piece, from gay to grave,
from mirth to melancholy. Actually, last
evening, Miss Gray's triumph was COM
plete.
Mr.. Frank Roche's Levison was an ex-
ceptionally fine piece of work. 1t was the
production of great tact and talent. He is
as thoroughly at home on the stage as any
actor we have ever seen, and certainly pol
ishes while he darkens the piece with some
choice velvety villainy. Mr.. Melton's Atchi-
bald was acceptable, and Mr.. Benson's Dill
excellent and enduring. Mrs. Jones Cor
ney was one of the most uncompromisingly
fine characters in the piece. Her passes
with Levison could not be surpassed, SO to
speak
Miss Gray deserves good houses to-day at
matinee and this evening. She plays be-
ween showers and sawdust this time; but in
all the rounds of drama it will be long
time before anything is given more exquis-
itely touching than East Lynne by this
company.

East LYnne-Miss Ada Gray.

The favorite emotional actress, Miss Ada
Gray, supported by strong company, will
present East Lynne at the opera-house to-
night Of a presentation in Atlanta last
Friday night, the Constitution says:
A very large audience was present at
DeGive's Opera-house last night, the occas-
ion being the production of East Lynne, or
the Elopement," by Miss Gray, supported
by Watkins Fifth Avenue Combination.
The play, as rendered, is a new version,
written expressly for her, and it's questiona-
BILE if the drama has been added to in force
or interest. The play affords scope for
ability as well as tragic. situations. 1t gives
latitude for the portrayal of the delicate
and sensitive apprehensions of the wo-
mans nature; requires an artistic method,
earnestness and strength of emotion love,
distrust, jealousy, anguish, remorse and
maternal devotion are all to be portrayed.
Miss Gray appeared in the dual part of
''Lady Isabel" and MADAME Vine" and
gave general pleasure by her impassioned
personations. The audience followed her
with the deepest interest, and in the more
highly wrought scenes of the play her con-
troll of their sympathies was notably evi-
denced. Where the heart-broken mother
reveals herself to her dying child, the au-
dience was thrilled with the deep passion,
and exquisite pathos of the scene.
The ''Sir Francis Levison" of Mr. Frank
Roche, and the Miss Corney," Mrs W. G..
Jones, were very effective, Little Willie"
Lulu Tesio, repeated his lines exceedingly
well. A matinee this afternoon; perform
ance tonight, close the engagement.

ADJUSTMENTS.

EsMERALDA BY MADISON SQUARE COMPANY.
Tomorrow night the citizens of Knox
vile will have the opportunity for the first
time to witness the presentation of that
beautiful new play, Esmeralda, by our well
known and talented authoress, Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Burnett. 1t will be given by one
of the best companies from the Madison
Square Theatre.
The Observer has this to say of a pre-
sentation in Raleigh, N. c.:
And SO we have seen the first perform
ance in North Carolina of the tender and
touching drama, whose opening scene is
laid in the Old North -''Esmeralda
An elegant and large audience watched with
delighted interest its admirable presentation
at Tucker Hall last evening. 1t was put
upon the boards in manner well worthy
the reputation of the Madison Square The
atre, and the accomplished ladies and gen
tlemen whose assumption of its parts was at
dice so truthful and admirable No more
clear-cut and meritorious performance has
ever been seen here, and to every member
of the company praise is due and was hear
ti1y given last evening. 1t is no small Won
der that this play has for more than a year
fascinated audiences nightly, for its beautiful
story commends it alike to the lover of the
stage and of nature. North Carolinians will
give it hearty welcome always.
1t will be presented at Fayetteville Tues
day evening, Hazel Kirke being given to-
morrow evening. Raleigh gives good wish
es to the troupe and will greet them again
next autumn.

there had been no rehersal during the

believed it was caused by an explo.

great rapidity, and caught the drop

who were setting the stage to rights,
from the building. They made a
