applause from his audience in the chief
scenes of the play. In the scene in the
cabin where he shows his tenderness for
Elinor, wrapping her'up carefully to pro-
tect her from the cold blasts, and then
his manly courage by using his arm as
the bar with which to hold the door
against the shrielzing, yelping wolves
struggling to enter, Mr.. Mayo was ex-
ceedingly strong and brought down the.
house.
Mr.. Mayo was well supported, and the
play was well put on the stage. There
should be a crowded house tonight to
show the appreciation in which an actor
of the standing and ability of Mr.. Mayo
is held.

Parlor Match.
The Boston Herald says: "The well
known 'Parlor Match came back to Bos-
ton last night; but by reason of the addi-
ton of new gags, new music and new
faces is now termed 'Parlor Match Up to
Now. Evans and Hoey are still the
prime fun-movers in the piece, but the
Levy Sisters prove very close attrac-
ton. The lively skit was acted with
spirit and appeared to delight the large
| audience as much as it did the audiences
of former seasons The ''Parlor
Match will be seen at City Hall on
March 9th and 10th, and tickets are now
ready al Stockbridge's.
Concert at the First Baptist Church.
One of the most enjoyable concerts OF
the season was given last evening at tho
First Baptist church, by the Mendelssohn
Male Quartette, Miss Knight, Miss Good
win and Miss Plummer, and the fine pro-
gramme published yesterday was most
charmingly rendered. The selections of
the quartette were sung to great accept
ance, and Miss Knights beautiful song,
''To Sevilla," was enthusiastically re-
ceived. Miss Goodwin's violin solos met
with well merited approval, and Miss
Plummer's Accomplishments and piano
solo were given with her well known ex-
cellence of taste and execution. Partic-
ularly delightful were those numbers
which were sung by the quartette and
Miss Knight. Encores were frequent and
generously responded to, and an appreci-
ative audience went home thoroughly
pleased.
