The Saint Paul globe., 1896-11-29

in 'Dorcas" are two ladies whose costumes
are creations of the fashionable modfstes of
Paris. They are Miss Marie Millard and Miss
Drew Donaldson. Both of these artists pos
sess striking personalities and they wear
their gowns with becoming grace. Miss Mil
lard is the daughter of the late Harrison
Millard whose songs have become musical
classics. He had amassed a large fortune
before his gifted daughter was born, and he
expended money lavishy upon her education.
She was the pupil of the famous Marchesi.
of Paris, and her debut at the French capital
upon the completion of her studies was an
event of great brilliancy. Miss Donaldson
is the great-granddaughter of Col. Richard
Cary, to whom an extensive land grant was
made by England. The property, which is
famousy known as "Cary Mede' extends
along the banks of the picturesque Otsego
one Of the most magnificent estates in this
country. Miss Donaldson was born there and
when her rudimentary education COM
pleted, she was taken to Europe, where her
studies were completed, special attention
having been devoted to the development Of
her magnificent natural vocal organs.
THE Girl l Left Behind Me" will follow
The Dazzler" at the Grand which is one of
the strongest bookings of the season; perhaps
in the estimation of those familiar with the
deiineatfon, entirely the strongest. The play
has been one of the strongest successes of
the past three years throughout the entire
country and when 1t was produced in London
few months ago (where it is still playing to
enormous business) 1t took that city by
storm. The play deals with the military
life in Post Kennion in the Blaclrfoot coun-
try, Montana, during the Indian uprising
OF 1890. There are many scenes Of an intense
and exciting kind, particularly the one where
the Indians attack the little garrison at
sunrise. The lighter sides of the play rest
on the love-making of several couples, all
Of whom are the young people of the garri-
son. Il is promised to be in the hands of
thoroughly capable company.
"Tennessees Pardner" while not dram
| atization of Bret Harte's pathetic story, the
name Of which it has taken, is strongly sug-
| gestive of the influence of Mr. Harte. The
Tennessee" of the play is sweet slip of
! girl instead of the wayward man whose
| pardner's" gentle, generous grief is inef-
| faeeable memory, but the manner of the
| play, its setting, its characters and it's story
| are of the California of Bret Harte-the rough
frontier pictured through the softening haze
| to be in the hands Of good company, head
| ed by Harry Mainhall, q heroic actor well
and favorably known here.
Bartley Campbells play of love and life in
| Russia, Siberia" will be seen here at an
early date. 1t comes after an absence OF
| two years from the stage, presented On a
/ scale in which it has never been seen be-
| fore. Messrs. Marlborough and Kennedy have
| had entirely new scenery made that is beau
| tiful and elaborate and some of the scenes
| are of the richest seen in any production
| The Jews quarters at Moscow by moonlight
| which scene is in the second act, never fail
| to cause a tremendous round of applause
| while the palace of the governor and thf
| mines in Siberia are both scenes that one viii
| and appropriate. The cast is strong and In
i cludes a number of well known players
among them being James Horne, Jennie
| Remark, VIM. Stafford. Henry Dalton, David
