When Clay Clement appeared here
last season he was unknown, and those
who went to see him act were filled
with uncertainty and perhaps with an
inclination to sharply criticise this new
star. The unmistakable success he
achieved and the delightful impression
of his art is still commented upon by
those theatre goers who witnessed his
first appearance here. When Mr..
Clement plays his return engagement
at Grand opera house, Monday, Feb
LIST, his reception will be cordial one,
for he is no longer stranger to ouI
theatre goers but an artist who has
won high place in their estimation
and whose actual visit to this city is an
event that all loves of drama will look
forward for.
