seen on the Fort Worth stage than hers in
the third act, where the evidence of her
husband 5 guilt dawns upon her, and she
finds in the man she has trusted the vii
lain who had wrecked her life
by his forseries, and whom
she had sworn to bring TO
justice. Without the utterance of syl-
able she conveyed to the audience by
facial expression alone, all that trans
pires III the mind. That was acting. IN
everything she did or said she measured
up to the full standard of the most exact
ing demands fully establishing her right to
be classed as Il finished and skillful ar
fist. 1t may be remarked en- PEASANT
that she wore number of handsome cos
TUNES, some of them being marye!s of
beauty and taste.
"Jim the Penman'' will be repeated
