w. j. Seaman in :. Friend and Foe.o
An exchange says concerning Mr.. W. j..
scanlan, who is TO appear at Ford's next
week:
SIT is greatly to DO regretted that tho audi.
ence at the Grand last night can only be
described as q 'fair' one; for the merits OF the
performance deserved a crowded house. Mr.
Seaman Is probably the best exponent OF Irish
character on the stage to-day, and is an old
fayorito with Ottawa theatre goers, as was
evidenced by the outburst OF applause with
which he was greeted when he first appeared
on the stage last night. This applause was
frequently renewed during the progress Of the
play, and never undeservedly so.
"Bartley Campbell Is probably the most sue
cessful OF the comparatively small school OF
American dramatic authors; but Friend and
Foe would seem TO DO his masterpiece. The
play is full OF strong situations, and gives
every member OF an unusually powerful COM
pany an opportunity OF showing his or her
talents 70 the best advantage. Mr.. Seaman
himself Is not only o capital Irish comedian,
but also an accomplished vocalist, and sang
several songs In such manner as to call
forth repeated encores."
