AS Nell Gwynne, the lowly orange
seller, who became tho foremost of
English actresses Of her time and the
first favorite of Charles II, Rhea was
admirable. The role is n which re-
quires great versatility to properly in
terpret. 1t is full of light and shade.
One moment it is comedy, the next
tragedy, but through all of the various
phases of the character. Rhea was
equal to every requirement. She pos
sesses a wonderful expressive face and
can tell a story by the changing eX-
pressionS of her countenance as well as
with her tongue.
Her support last was good and the
performance throughout was excellent.
Great care was taken in the prepara-
ton of the costumes, which are similar
in every respect to those worn during
the reign of Charles II. Nell Gwynne''
was given its first production less than
a month ago and has been received
with much favor wherever seen. It
deals with a most interesting period of
English history, that which furnishes
abundant material from which to con
struct a play Of strong dramatic in
terest. Lyon Adams was much admired
as Charles II, and Carlton Wells.
though somewhat indisposed, realized
all the bad qualities for which the craft
Lord Jeffreys, chief justice of Eng
land, was noted. This afternoon Rhea
and company will repeat Nell
Gwynne" at the rockingham and to-
night she will be seen In her famous
role, the Empress Josephine.
Rhea is quite infatuated with Nell
Gwynne" and chatted pleasantly about
1t to a Tribune reporter last night after
the performance. 1t Is a character that
quite charms her and she Is enthusiasts
tic over the favor 1t has been received
with wherever seen. The applause and
curtain calls she received last night she
took as an assurance that the people
of Scranton were pleased with Mr.,
Testers play and endorsed her acting

SUPERINTENDENTS' UNION.
Movement Now IN Foot to Organize
Such n BODY.

Such q Body.
There Is n movement on foot to or
ganize a union of the superintendent
and assistant superintendent Of the
various Sunday schools of this city and
its vicinity for the purpose of getting
an interchange of ideas with regard to
the best method of conducting a Sun
day school.
There are over seventy-five Sunday
schools In the city, and it's vicinity and
including the primary and assistants,
the number of superintendent in these
schools reaches fully two hundred. The
question has arisen Is there Is much
need of cooperation and unity of work
as there Is in other departments of
secular or religious work? Is there as
much need of help and a comparison
Of methods as can be obtained by fire.
quent gatherings as there Is in our
secular schools?
In many Of the most progressive
cities Of the country there are now
what are called Sunday school super
intendents and teachers unions that
meet monthly or quarterly, which have
proved very helpful to the workers and
a great stimulus to Bible study.
