Entertalnments.


 Miss Julia Marlowe made her first appear snce before a New Haven audience at the New Haven Opera House last evening. She met with most cordial reception and made very favorable impression. Applause fre- quently interrupted the performance and the young artist was several times called before the curtain. In the first place, "Ingomar" Is a charming play and the character of "Par- thenia" is just suited to Miss Marlowe's pow CTS. Mary Anderson and Marie Wainwright have both given us fsultless interpretations of the Greek maiden and those present last night were willing to place this young artist in the same rank with those actresses whose talents are unquestioned and who have made themselves famous by years of study. The great charm of Miss Msrlowe's acting lies in the fact that her methods are so simple, nat ural and unaffected. Her stage presence is most engaging and she interested the audi- ence from her first appearance on the stage until the close of the play. Her enunciation is clear and distinct and her elocution nearly fsultless. The company is a fair one. Mir. Charles Barron's interpretation of the title role was all that could be desired. Mr. James Cooper also deserves special mention for his assumption of the role of "Myron." This afternoon Miss Marlowe will appear in 'fThe Hunchback" and this evening in Shakes peare's Twelfth Night" Both plays deserve large audiences and will doubtless receive them.

Edwin F. Thorne, the popular actor, will appear at the New Haven Opera House on Monday and Tuesday evenings next in ''The Right Man."
