putting a very high valuation upon
her unless she is a very heavy girl.
AT this rating 120 pounds Of girl
would be worth only about $50 900,
and any young man who doesn't think
his best girl is worth more than $780,

Miss Josephine Kelley in ssThe Hunch.
back" at Fosters Opera House,
Last Night.

Last evening Fosters Opera House had
nearly every seat occupied by an intelli-
gent audience to witness the production
of Sheridan Knowles magnificent COM
edy of "The Hunchback." Miss Joseph
inc Kelley, a new aspirant for histrionic
honors, made her bow before a Des
Moines audience in the role Of Julia, and
as we have had so few chances to wit
ness the legitimate drama, presented by
first class artists, the audience was soon
in accord with the players. ''The
Hunchback" is a play of noble creation,
and ranks with those of the great Bard of
Avon, and those who did not witness
its production, are lost to sentiment and
must be ignorant of the fine s%ensibilities
of nature. The play is an enrapturing
one and through its composition it
breathes naught but the beauties of life,
the passions, the hopes, the good that
nature vouchsafes to US. It tells us of
devotion, of love, of q parents hopes, of
worth more than riches; in fact a picture
CT life as it should be lived.
Last evening these attributes of nature
were so faithfully depicted tnat tine coun-
terpart seemed a reality, and the dream
spell was only broken when the curtain
had descended upon the last act. Miss
Reilly was the recipient of applause sew
eral times and her conception of the part
was admirable, and evinced close study
of the meaning and intent of the author.
Her actions were devoid of stage-effect
and at all line natural-and her read
ings had nothing of the ant that is so
often found OIL the stage. She portrayed
the character as the confiding, loving,
virtuous woman, and her efforts were
appreciated, and this is enough for a
conscientious actress. The lady is young
and, more than that, she is good looking,
to say the least. She dressed the part
beautifully, and, as the ladies would say,
her dresses were lovely. The special
engagement of Mr.. Frederick Paulding,
who has many warm friends in this city,
is an indication that the lady has fine sup
port. Mr.. Paulding although yet a young
man, has made rapid strides toward ,the
top of the ladder Of dramatic fame, and
his portrayal of Sir Thomas Clifford was
one of marked ability, and OF him de-
pended much of the plays success. Mr.,
Myron Leffingwell as Master Walter was
excellent, and his makeup, action and
reading were alike good. The Fathom
of Mr.. Currier was all that could be de-
sired. The principal lady support, Miss
Ada Dow, won her way to the hearts OF
the audience by her conscientious rendi-
ton of Helen, and in fact the entire COM
pany is one of merit and admirably
adapted to support Miss Kelley.
The company will appear again this
afternoon and evening in "Romeo and
Juliet" with Miss Kelley and Mr.. Pauld-
ing in the title roles. We AVE no doub'
they will be greeted with good houses a
both performances, as the play ought to
and win no doubt, receive a fine rendition
by this excellent company.-De Moine'
