Camille" as presented by Rhea anC
her company al the Auditorium TUESDAY
night, was a performance of rare merit
The picture presented is too pitiful to b.
pleasing, but the acting of Rhea was S,
finished, and the emotions were depicte,
with such intenseness as to win the admir-
alton of all. Rhea as Camille and LawreI
Rees as Armand Duval kept the mercuria
temperament ascribed to the French eve
in mind. William Harris filled, the r6l
of Monsieur Duval admirably, and Mis-
Helen Baird made the most of the mino
role as Madame Prudence.
The initial exhibition of the Edison
kaleidoscope in this place occurred las
evening at the Baptist church, under tn
auspices of the Christian Endeavor society
and a large audience was pleasantly enter
tanned for nearly two hours. The pictures
thrown upon a screen as by stereopticOn
were made vivid and real by the life an,
action given by the moving figures. Tn
variety of the views was good, including
express trains, street scenes, cavalry prac
tice, and humorous scenes, though tn,
clearness of the pictures was somewha
married by the fact that leakage i'm one o
the gas tanks had reduced the available
amount nearly one-third. w. E. Field o
Orange, who gave the exhibition, purpose
to return later in the season. The graph
ophone selections which were given he
tween the views lost much of their effe,
iveness because of the size of the andenc
room. In spite of these drawbacks, how
ever, the entertainment was very salts
factory one.
