Held 10y the Enemy is a distinctly Ameri-
can play-an American subject handled by
an American author. And it is wonder
fully well handled. The subject, dealing
with the stirring scenes and incidents OF

est tribute to the ability Mr.. Gillette has
di,played in handling this subject is found
in the uniform success which has greeted
his play in both the North and the South
Miss Minnie Du Pree, who was with the
Fords year ago, has been winning great
success in this play, and she will hardly
fail to receive an ovation here

themselves game by coming out fighting.

party lost one man, Sergeant of the Mex-
