" Peaceful ValIey.o

A simple and homely comedy. entitled
Peaceful Valley" was acted at Days Theatre
last night. Edward f. Kidder had written 1t
for Sol Smith Russell. and 1t was a suitable
play for the purposes OF that peculiar and gen.
orally agreeable comedian. Quiet drollery
is Mr.. Russelps best characteristic. and
he turns 1t to both pathetic and comlcal
account 1t Is true that o sudden spectator,
coming upon him in one Of his moments OF
suppressed emotion. might easily think that
inebriety was the latter with him. for at such
times his face Is vacuous and his legs un-
steady. But Is there not highly Intelligent
demand for undemonstrative naturaness In
acting? And who shall say that in real life a
man looks different with an ache OF the
heart than with an acho OF the stomach?
No derision OF Mr.. 81 Russell is here
intended. He is clever actor. with artistic
aspirations that do not keep SO very far ahead
OF his abilities. and personality which sue
cessfully recommends him to the esteem Of a
consid CRADLE following. His performance In
the present instance illustrates his methods
pleasurably. and to that extent 1t may be re-
Garded as perfectly satisfactory. for 1t will de-
light those who already admire him. Traces
