humorous powers and the eXtravagant but
leatly fashioned fun of the play caused the
aughter. "The Nominee" is from the French,

The Rivals Given at the Alvin In Excellent
Style With . Great Cast.
"The Rivals was played splendtdly by
Joseph jefferson and his company once
more at the Alvin last night. Joseph
Jefferson's Bob Acres is still a master
piece; OF which none Of the original
charm has been rubbed away. The
Sir Lascfus O'7rioger of Louis James
would have been far more acceptable had
Florence never created rendering or the
character. Mr.. James Is a very good actor,
but his idea OF Sir Latcfus Is too solemn. Mr..
Barnes, another newcomer, was not happily
cast as Captain Absolute, while the FduM-
land of Mr.. Owsley was anything
but good. Mrs. John Drew Is
still simply perfect and inimitable
as Mrs. Mdldprop and Miss Viola Allen, and,
indeed, the rest of the company could not be
improved upon. The play was exquisitely
staged. The audience contained many dis
tinguished citizens and was cordial.
The new conservatory was thrown open
last night. adding large room prettily dec
grated and lit to the foyer, where the audi
ence could enjoy walk among palms and

Maggie Mitchell Welcome as Ever.

Maggie Mitchell is at the Bijou Theater,
bringing Xmas in her train as she has done
for several years. The ever young, nay, the
growing younger Maggie, appears in u play
Little Maverick" in the serious parts Of
which she compeIs tears as readily as ever,
and in the humorous part Of which
she outMitchell's herself. She danced
last night until every one in the
audience laughed uproariously,. and all
propriety HAD gone out of her hair.
The play gives many occasion for Miss
Mitchell's vivacity, seizing every opportu-
nifty as she does. She is as ever our own
particular dear Maggie. The company
creditably fill all the requirements. 1t is not
necessary to say that regulation big Bijou
house greeted this popular woman in her
new role of Little Maverick. The play is a
pretty one and well suited to Miss Mitchell.
