Without exception, says the Chatta
nooga Times, such crowd was never
before seen at the opera house here as
the one which gathered to see Archie
Boyd and his excellent company in
"The Country Squire The house was
packed to its utmost, every seat peing
sold, and the aisles jammed full of
standing humanity. Even the coloreu
gallery had been thrown open and there
the people were packed in like sardines
in a box.
"The Country Squire" IS just what is
claimed for it, nothing more. nothing
less-a series of beautiful and touching
pictures OF home life; no claim is made
of strong plot. thrilling effects. etc but
just that it is simple, pretty story
prettiiy told. MIR. Boyd, as "Ebenezer
Tobia," the county squire, was the
genuine article; a plain, unassuming,
wnole-souled countryman with distinct
touch of nature permeating his entire
composition; he but made stronger the
place he had won in the hearts OF this
people when he interpreted the "Old
Homestead"-in fact, there is strong
smack of the latter about his present
THE mbers of the company as
rule are goud, but especial merit is to
be found in the Emily Tobias" OF Miss
Mildred Conner, and the Daisy" of
Miss Ida Stembler. The former LADY
is graceful, has a captivating face, large,
soulful eyes that speak in language
az strong as her tongue can, aad who
places an easy, satisfying Interpretation
upon the work she has on hand. Of
pretty, piquant, sweet, little Ida Stem
bier too much cannot be said in praise.
She carries clean, forcible interpreta

as just such dainty wild flower might
be, and with her artistic work, her
dainty presence and her sweet face won
the heart of everyone present. The
singing Of tho quarcette was a most
pleasing feature"

duced at the Academy of Music to-mor-
row night, and Judging from the large
advance sale, it will be enjoyed by one
