JOSEPH GREENE.
Playing In the City This Week with a
Strong COmDan<

Strong Company.
Joseph Greene needed no introduction
to Ellsworth; he has been here before,
and his capacity for gratifying the wants
OF the drama-loving public was already
well known. 1t was, therefore, small
wonder that on Monday evening Han

conscientious manner.
Miss Jessie Merritt, the leading lady, is
a beautiful and talented actress. NJ isses
Georgia Earle, Grace Euler, Josie Rich
ards and the little Murray children join
with her to help balance the feminine
characters with the masculine.
The leading heavy man Is NJ. j. Green,
who, alt Though he is a typical villain on
the stage, is a most pleasant acquaintance
when his makeup is laid aside. Aubrey
Beattie, j. NJ. Barry, Walter Seymour and
William Norton do their work we'll.
Edward E. Rose, the wellknown play
wright, is the general director of the
company. Mr.. Rose is a Boston man,
having been manager of the Castle Square
theatre and the Grand opera house i'll

tions, he plays prominent parts in sew
eral of the plays.
The specialties are marked for their

singers, the Murray children sing and
dance well, and Messrs. Barry and Nor
ton have good voices and great variety
of selections.
Miss Merritt has number of friends IN
