40 slWorLY AMERICAN DRAMATIC
COMPANY.
A dramatic festival is TO be- held IN
Vienna to which representatives Of
the various countries OF the world are
invited. IL appears, however, that
American Thospiaus are not favorsbly
disposed towards the idea. Mr.. a. NJ.
Palmer gives u plausible reason for
this. lie say. company TO he
truly representative of our 0oun.
try should consist Of native a unoricana.
The author Of the play should also be
an American and tie subject should
treat ouly on American types aud
characters. American actors inter-
proting Shakespeare would not be typ.
cal of our at. Nor would the prveeu-
tation Of play like alabama" ~ the
Palmer company represent American
acting, siure some Of the lending actors
fenresent British mt. Owing, there
fore, 10 the lack ola strictly American
company, Mr.. Palmer thinks Il Ia i'm
possiblc 10 correctly represent America
at the Festival. lie suggests that
among the exhibits nj the Chicago
Worlds Fair be one of dramatic art
aud that one department be- devoted to
putting ON view the Improvements ia
mechanical appliances and scenery
since this country first hogan 10 have a
drama. a review Of the stage Of this
country from It's beginning down 10 Ia"
ptotent time coulu bc made an inter-
esting feature oitne great exhibition.
LOCAL AMushNkN1s.
Notwithstanding the fact that 1.-THE
New DEVILS a uction," the play with
which the nnusemcnts ~ the past
week opened nj the Salt Lake Theatre
had teen pronounced a strictly moral
play, and advertised NJ containing
numerous new features the public
proved, by their absence, that they
took another view OF H. The mOst
sinking Of the "new" features were
not new in this city, having already
boen exhibited among the marvols OF
Wonderland, and tue morality Of the
show was OF questionable quality.
TuE MAsToDoS MISs1RrLs.

the Acme o MinsiTcl-y was presented
