sarah,s Attack on Mary.

For months the dramatic critics have re-
ceived letters from abroad containing state
ments detrimental to Miss Anderson, and
of nature calculated to embitter the critics
against the actress. These emanated from
Miss Sarah Cecil, who is travelling in
Europe for her health. Her monomania
is an undying enmity TO Miss Anderson.
She was pupil in the Dramatic School in
this city and conceived an affection for her
instructor. He left to fill an engagement
with Mary Anderson, which aroused Miss
Cecils jealousy and inspired the attacks.
This is thought to account for the derange-
ment of Miss Anderson's nerves.
