 PRocToR's OPERA HOUSE.
 Clara Morris appeared at this theater last evening in her new play, "Odette," written by Sardou. She was welcomed by fair sized house and all seemed to enjoy the development of the play, which contains some strong features which were well adapted to her peculiar and original art The point of the play is whether the affec- ton between mother and child will live if not developed by the influences which sur round them at home and if the relations which usually exist between mother and child are entirely withheld. The result which might be expected takes place-the mother and child part as strangers. Miss Norris interpretation of the more intense phases, especially the meeting of mother and daughter in the last act and their final parting, is matchless. She is admirably supported by MT. J. M. Colville, who gives an impressive force and firm dignity to Count Clermont La Tour, the wronged husband. Howard Coveny's comedy as Bechamel was as pleasing as the innocent Y1,ls ~E l41o D. Odette's daughter was refreshing. Miss Mittens Willett added many pretty touches to the ensemble in the guise of Juliette.

Y., will be presented this even ing by an exceptionally strong company, including Miss Ffolliott Paget, as the Baroness Vera, fascinating Russian lady, who is on 8 visit with her brother to Wash ington, where the scene of the play is laid
