METROPOLITAN THEATER.- There never
has been any better character acting on the
Metropolitan boards than that of Mckee
Rankin as old "'49," George Osborne as
the General and Frank Mordaunt as
" Old Ned, in the sparkling comedy =" 40 -
played last night. 1t is the one California
drama without tragedy in it the one local
| lied play true TO nature, and with only so
| much OF over color as art iustifies. Mrs
Mckee Rankln's PRESERVATION of Garrett
the wild, romping, ig-hearted, fearless
honest girl of the mining camp, was one of
the most charming bits of dramatic work
seen here in many long day. She won
the audience from the start, and with the
aid of the General and $40" kept the
house in a constant laughter from the be-
| ginning 10 the end of the drama. Kitty
Blanchard, the fayorite actress, was never
happier in personation than last night,
when, as Mrs. Rankin" she sunk her
personality in the character of the Sierra
! girl, whom neither poverty and ill-usage
nor wealth and tiattery could spoil. The
whole piece is full 81 activity, flashes with
wit. and radiates with genuine humor Mr..
| Holland was an admirable youthful hero,
in strong contrast TO the feeble villain of
| Mr.. Bosworth. Why Mr.. Mordaunt hid
| himself behind an assumed name in so
capitally perSonating Old Ned " is unac-
countable. There is just as much credit in
the work as if it were not representative of
peated for the last time tonight.
The LAST LoAF."-Last evening at
Turner Hall, dramatic performance, in
two acts, entitled 1.-The Last Loaf" was
given by the ST Stephens Brotherhood of

pounds, from Colonel James McNasser for

| remem bered was burned in the ice house
