i'll, "Pygmalion and Galatea" and The
Wonder" The first is familiar To Provi-
tence audiences, and Miss Gale as Gala
ca, the innocent, and as Galatea, the
tatue, proved great success, while Mr..
'larke was perfect and natural Pygma-
ion. The whole company appeared to
.reat advantage, and the beautiful story
vas interpreted to the complete satisfac-
ion of the audience.
The second piece, THE Wonder, or a
Woman Keeps Secret" was a relaxation.
he scene was Lisbon, and two or three
owe affairs got decidedly mixed up, but
he woman who keeps the secret, though
n danger of losing her lover, finally
traightens things out and two marriages
re the result. The little play abounds in
unny situations, the apparent faithful
less of Niolante to her lover and conse-
iuent doubt, jealousy and rage, the many
cancellations, only TO be followed by
.raver doubts, and the final adjustment
ombine To make an attractive story.
which Miss Gale interpreted in a beautiful
.ud pleasing manner.
