Amusements

This is what the New York World
says of My Jack" to be seen at Har--
pers theatre this evening:
The general interest felt in the
election returns last evening had
bad effect upon the attendance at the
Academy of Music. My Jack" de-
served full house, and would have
undoubtedly met with a better re-
ception under other circumstances.
The audience which witnessed it,
however, went away thoroughly
pleased. 1t is a powerful drama,
well staged and well presented by
Mr.. Sanford's clever company. Jack
Merideth, an adopted son of a fisher
man of Cornwall, England, is in love
with the beautiful Dorothy Prescott.
The course of their love runs smooth
until Baronet Edward hamburg be-
comes infatuated with Dorothy and
contrives to bring about Jacks de-
struction. His assistant in this ne
farious work is Giro Panitza, vaga-
bond Greek, who becomes one of the
strongest characters in the play.
Vanberg ingeniously plots to fasten
the guilt of the murder of Charles
Prescott, Dorothy's brother, upon
Jack Merideth, and at the same time
stir up in Jacks breast suspicion
OF Dorothy's faithfulness. In the
former purpose he fails, as Jack is
acquitted by jury; but in the latter
he is successful.
