The play hinges upon the Mason-Slid-
ell episode Of 1861, with bright uniforms
and gallant tars, and throughout the
story runs golden thread of heroism,
patriotism and requited love. There is
a faithful reproduction of the gum deck
OF, the old Kearsarge, taken from photo
graphs and water color studies. One al
most feels her undulsting deck beneath
the feet at sight of the familiar guns and
shrouds and brass work and bunting
and all the minute details that distin-
-guish the man-o'-war. The work of the
scenic artist is very effective. Those
who love realism in its most attractive

and numbers among Its players the
charming leading lady, Mss Bessie Tay-
Tor, who will play the part OF Alice
Greer.
