portrayed by Gus Williams and John i.
Kelly, both old-,ime fayortes here, and
who, no doubt, will be warmly welcomed.

fate often depends, much more than on its

its diversions as regards the Stage? Many
critics write of the actors and actresses now

mechanical present of its possibilities
is a work of art. Decentralization, it is
said, is the fault of the stage of to-day.
There is only one rule TO be followed with
regard to the working out of play on the
stage, and that is to follow nature. Much
has been SAID and written regarding the
