The unanimous report upon the dramatic
festival is that IL fell far short of all its
promises, excepting the one promise of lucra-
tive receipts. There was really no reason
why broad success need have been looked
for, Though the gathering was of American
actors, the greatest of American actors were
left out There was no Booth in tragedy,
nor any jefferson in comedy; and oven
among the second magnitude people many
who were left out are quite as
good as any who z wero in. Writ
ing on Wednesday, one of the most
widely known and impartial critics in the
country had to say that financially, the
festival will be success without doubt,
but artistically it cannot be regarded as other
than woeful failure, and idle actors, man
ayers, and critics who came to remain the

for home, They swear that after seeing Muir
