TWELFTH NIGHT REVIVED.
Marie Wainwright's personal beauty and
perfect art prevailed at the Fifth Avenue
theatre last night. She was there seen by
a large and representative enthusiastic
audience for the first time in New York in
rhp role Of Viola in Twelfth Night. Splen-
did scenic aids and a good company con-
tributed TO placing the actresses work IN
the most agreeable and advantageous
light. Oiivia's house and garden were
pictured in exquisite tones, and the color
that pervaded the chief scenes of the play,
both in canvas and in costumes, fell with
pleasant influence upon the eye and made
apparent at once that taste and art had
combined to render the accessories worthy

ranches kept under fence they have
little to do when not on the drive or in
branding-time, the cattle being all
safely nclOsed. But they must take
their turns at line riding, which means
a close inspection Of the fences, and
the repair of all breaks and damages.
Where night overtakes them, there
they sleep, stalking their horses and
rolling themselves in their blankets.
These rides Of inspection take days to
accomplish, for there are ranches in
Texas which extend in a straight line
over seventy-five miles. Those ranches
which are not kept under fence neces-
state more work. The boys must then
