The company that has been playing at
the Theatre for several nights deserves
the recognition Of all people o. good
taste as complete organization in its
artistic merits and in the study that has
been conscientiously bestowed on the
pieces they present. Mr. Mansfield has
been sufficiently praised for his work TO
take it for granted that he will always be
appreciated, but he deserves compliment
for the strength and training of his COM
pany and the artistic care with which the
scenes are set. In the two French plays
Monsieur and A Parisiln Romance, the
delicate finish of the works was most
apparent
Mr.. Mansfield's portrayal of the Baron
is magnificent piece OF eccentric, char
acter acting that is natural with all its
striking physical pecularities. He is
ably supported by Mr. Sullivan, very
graceful and elegant leading man, and
MT. Dan Harklns, VINO Is remembered
here as one of the old favorites of

Of the gentlemen whom they, best of all
others, can produce in drama. The la.
dies Of the company Miss Ida Vernon

equally good in all the parts they take.

when Lent has Swallowed the amusement
