ADJUSTMENTS.

This evening, at the Metropolitan Theater,
the sterling actor, Joseph R. Grismer, and
the favorite emotional actress, Phabe
Davies, will appear in the dramatization of
Morris novel, Cruelty Her." entitled
THE Tigress." 1t has been produced here
and received at the time the commendation
of this journal. 1t is needless to speak at
length of the capabilities of Mr.. Grismer
and Miss Davies. They never bring a
weak company here, and uniformly sur
round themselves with good support. In
themselves they make performance a
success, as they are conscientious and
thorough in method and experienced in
the art which they grace.
The announcement is made elsewhere of
the appearance in this city of the noted
actress, Maggie Mitchell. The mention of
her name recalls dramatic triumphs of
few years ago, in which Miss Mitchells
achievements in "Fanchon, the Cricket"
were famous all through the land. She
created the character of Fanchon, and no
one has since played with such success, or
mas has been able to give it the depth of
meaning and feeling. She is announced
to appear here first in G. Wallace
Walters comedy-drama Ray" and her
principal support will be the accom-
plished actor, Charles Abbott. The Kan
sas City Times pronounces the play one out
of the beaten paths and dealing largely
with the question of labor organizations.
The Chicago Globe thinks the piece gives
Miss Mitchell as full opportunity to display
the talents that have made her so great a
favorite as any play ia her repertoire. She
will present here also Little Barefoot V
by many critics thought to be superior to
"Fanchon,p and better adapted to the
qualities so strong in Miss Mitchell's
methods upon the stage. The engagement
will begin Friday evening and the sale of
seats will commence tomorrow
The Congregational Church was COM
fortably filed last evening, on the occasion

rare musical treat. Nine. Bishops sing

took part also did themselves credit.
The piano solos were of high order
and features of the evenings entertain
