KATIE PUTNAM.
Concerning the little lady who appears on
cur stage next Monday evening in LENA
the Medcap,n we find the following extract
from the Louisville Commercial:
Miss Putnam is the same sweet singer, dl-
vine danseuSe and charming actress that she
has feen since she made her debut on the
boards: the exception being an improvement,
if such thing were possible. NO cultured
theatre-goer can say that he or she has ever
seen a more perfect blending of pathos and
humor than that enacted By Miss Putnam.
Laughing OF crying, smiling or signing, there
is a world OF study in her methods, and one
can realty attest that play with Miss Put-
nam in the cast is veritaoly practical SER
mon. She is surrounded by good support
ing company.
