The Nashville Banner, in a column of
ELUSIVE eulogium upon Yankee Doodle
and Dixie" at it's initial presentation by
Hons. ALI. and Bob Taylor says: more
than 5000 people gave them an ovation. 1t
was one of the greatest paying audiences
ever seen in Nashville and appreciation
of an entertainment has rarely been ex-
pressed here in more f1attering outbursts
of enthusiasm than were showered on the
two brothers in their great joint orator
ical effort. Every seat in the building was
occupied, and a sea of upturned expectant
faces would have been an inspiration to
less gifted speakers. yankee Doodle and
Dixie is a sermon of hope, a poem of
life, a "reminiscences of golden age, a
prophecy of the better time to come, a
benediction tempered with love of all man
kind and softened with melodic echoe
from Gods masterpiece of home the lana
of Dixie. A national anthem, an American
epic, 1t yet possesses all the essential beau
ties of a perfect pastoral. Thus it evades
defintion-it is SO varied. so many-toned,
so many-colored. Between Bob Taylor and
the greatest entertainers of the world
there is only that difference which per-
sonal opinion might invent. In his own
way he is unexcelled. His almost pat
ternless mosaic of rhetorical vagaries was
followed last night with an eagerness that
VIII not miss a word. ALI. Taylor's effort
was delight. He assumes the first half
OF the theme and from it evolves a drama
OF liberty" The performance is character
lzed as new and novel throughout, with
OUT precedent or likeness, an Ara b1an
nights entertainment of rhetorical splen-
dors, ludicrous representations, folk-song
ana fun-provoking incident and anecdote.
Effie Ellsler will be seen this week for
the first time here in a Shakespearean
play. She has chosen "As You Like 1t, p"
n which she will, of course, be. seen as
Rosalind.I OF late Miss Ellsler has fav-
ored the society drama. Nevertheless,
she is a thorough Shakespearian student
and devoted to blank verse work A
sLong addition has been made to her sup
porting company this season in the per-
goa OF her father, John A. Ellsler, who
Ior many years was not only one of
america s most enterprising managers,
but admitted to be great actor.
Limited MAIL which will be seen
Wednesday night. is play on the real
lstie order. II deals with railroads and
fallroad people. 1t contains telegraphers,
ramps, section men and train wreckers.
Ihere are clicking telegraph Instruments,
realistic engines, palatial Pullman's and
runway postal cars There are tracks,
1and-cars, switches and tunnels. and the
railroad is utilized on the stage as it
mas never been before, for the author was
telegraph operator and train dispatcher
az columbus, O., for years, and his leis-
4Ie. time was not devoted to loafing or
aaiisslpatlon, nor to empty observations
ABOUT the depot; but he saw the Limited
mails Come and go daily ana nightly.
