THE COUNTY FAIR.

The brilliant audience which greeted
The County Fair" last night at the
Academy of Music were we'll repaid. No
less was duo to the thorough art of tho
actors than to the mise en- scene and the
novelty Of the play. True dramatic art
of a peculiar yet realistic school is
shown in adapting the homely scenes
of New England life to the stage.
The plot is old and hackneyed, not
phase but what has been threshed over
in play and story. The good girl is very
good, the waif is very waify, thcold skin
flint is as hard as stage skinfint can
be and is as thorouhly overthrow as he
ought to be, and in the end Virtue
triumphs over wrong. But over all and
through all runs the broad stream of
natural humor SO close to pathos that
the burst of laughter may end in a
gulped down sob.
1t is not difficult to understand why
plays like 1.-THE Old Homestead" and
The County Fair" catch popular fancy.
In every breast lies somewhere the love
Of simple, honest hearts. No man is so
worldly and blase as not to appreciate
the homely honesty, the mild simplicity,
the upright living and strict morality Of
Otis Tucker and Abigail Prue.
In the performance last evening the
quaint New England speech but half
concealed the broader lines which typify
all rural life of English origin. The
story may be told in a paragraph. Abb
gal Prue, young old maid. with 4 warm
place in her heart for waits, holds the
foremost place. Her lover, Otis
Tucker, has courted her fer fourteen
years. A mortgage on her farm is about
to be foreclosed. A young waif, with
knowing way about horses, discovers
that Aunt Abbv's colt, Cold Molasses,
has a turn for speei. He borrows S25
from Otis to enter the colt for So, 900
stake at the County Fair. unbeknown to
Aunt Abby, and wins. The mortgage is
lifted and several hearts are made glad
One waif turns out to be Aunt Abby's
long searched for niece. The other is
the brother of ono of Aunt Abbys pro.
teges. Aunt Abby and Otis Tucker
marry.
Tho com pany was one of remarkable
evenness and mort, but tho parts OF
Otis Tucker and Abigail Prue, taken
respectively by w. H Burton and Mario
Bates, were character sketches of high
order and great fidelity. The stage
settings were much better than usually
given by travelling companies. and the
racing scene great success.
The management will confer favor
on the public by suppressing the hood
lums who crunch peanuts and disturb
the audience in the gallery. The acous.
tics of tho house, though improving, arc
still defective, and quiet is needed to
hear the actors to good advantage.

THE STATE OF TRADE.
