Marie Jansen, sprightly, good-humored,
s-5 s-rractive, will be seen here this year
n .pelmonico's At G." the play which in
--a+seed her to the public last season as a
star and in which she made such a pro-
-,lnced hit There can be no question that
,- This clever farce of Glen MacDonough's
zrs IS afforded a splendid opportunity for
.ts display of her versatility. The part of
T-.via Hazelmere. the queen of the vaude-
vile. is so peculiarly well fitted for her
fref ID. seems as if no other actress could
make of il what Miss Jansen does. The
-7u-v clever sayings which come to her
rot TAN as happily from her lips as
though they were originated at the mo-
r,-7t and her songs are interpolated in
such a clever way as to give not the
slightest impression of being forced. Her
performance is very refreshing and entire
~ free from coarseness.
one of the most important engagements
az the season is that of Marie Wainwright.
VINO will give three different plays during
-h= two nights and matinee, Tuesday and
Wednesday of this week. Tuesday night
She will present the society drama,
Daughters of Eve. At the Wednesday
matinee she will appear in Camille and
al night in Tom Taylor's comedy drama,
an Unequal Match. A complete outfit of
scenery is carried and the costuming of
Miss Wainwright and the five other ladies
az the cast will be especially attractive.
Daughters of Eve is by A. f. Lancaster
ana Julian Magnus, and is an intensely
strong modern society drama. The story
is vivid. the plot is not intricate or in
VOWED, and the play has several powerful
scenes. To be sure il is written to point
moral and it seems as though the authors
in this case had struck a popular chord
III advocating the social ostracism of the
r0ue, and holding up to strong denunca-
ton woman's 'inhumanity" to woman.
The dialogue is bright, and at times cpl
erammauc. The scenes are all laid in
ENGLAND. Miss Wainwright plays a dual
role of twin sisters, one of whom becomes
a leader in gay and dissipated Bohemia
in London. under the name of Rhoda
uaintry. The other, Rose Wycherly, is re-
fined and honest The hero. Robert Haw
th0rne, falls in love with Rose and the
complications arise through her likeness
10 her sister. The self-sacrifice of the err
rnc sister at length unites the lovers.
Miss Wainwright succeeds in compelling
applause all through her emotional scenes.
TIE Musical Courier says of Miss Ellen
Beach Yaw' who viii be heard in Savan-
nah Monday night. Jan. Is: THE express
s.Cl5 of a critic upon Miss Yaw's re-
mar1able voice serve very aptly to define
the sensation which fills the auditor when
listening TO her phenomenal pitch, Z

prehension may follow her voice to high
c and fairly keep its feet on earth. but
when the seventh tone above that is hi
rrated with a clear, bell-like charm, it is
then that one ascribes the effect to some
supernatural instrumentality, it is not
earthly enough for our faltering COnCep-
ton. In Paris the critics m9rVeled al her
