This charming and popular actress and
truly representative ~eomedienne will ap'
pear at the Opera House for the first time
this season tomorrow, Monday evening,
February Goth, when her noted drama OF
the ''Deacon's Daughter" will be pro-
duced, supported by a complete and tai
ented company. The New York Sun says;
1t is saying much for Miss Annie Pikley's
popularity in this city to record that peo'
pie were turned away from the Union
Square Theatre all last week during
the performance Of The Deacon's
Daughter" The warm greeting she
received was q iltterlng n O
fair tribute to sn ambitious and a clever
actor, as the Connecticut maiden who has
made a success on the New York stage
without her parents consent. She IS ire
sistible. Her songs are received with I'M
bounded enthusiasm. She is handsome,
musical, attractive, full Of spirit and with
a clear conception of the meaning OF COM
edy as distinguished from burlesque. Her
success has been marvellous, but it is easily
understood after an evening passed under
the charm of her impesonation. Miss
Pixley has displayed go Judgment IN sur
rounding herself this season with a COM
pany of unsual merit, and judging from
the laughter and applause the "Descon's
Daughter will have a goodly run.
