ALABAMA.

So much has been written and
said about Alabama" in the past
four weeks, that, it seems impossi-
BILE to say anything new. The splen-
did record of its success everywhere
is the best advance notice for Gala
bama.' On the first night OF its
production, years ago, the press OF
New York with one accord endors-
ed the beauty, hurnor and strength
of the drama. Since, the play has
been presented in every city in the
Union, and the critics everywhere
seem never to grow tired Of sound.
ing its praises, 1t Is not often a
play, even II 1t is unusually well re-
ceiyed on its first production, evokes
upon its return the same amount
of enthusiasm, but Alabama" does
this in every case. The fact Is,
this beautiful play grows upon one;
it is like fayorite poem that one
reads over and over again, although
it is known by heart. There are
many fine qualities in Alabama "
It's story is disclosed by deeds, in
stead OF being related in words, It's
persons are distinctly indiyidualiaed.
1t is suiIused with romance 1t inn
parts the feeling Of a high ideal
character and conduct It Is un.
obstrusiyely humorous aud unallec-
tiyedly pathetic, The play will be
presented again this season by
Clement Bainbridges company,
Mr., Bainbridge, though only a
young manager has been an actor
for many years He takes entire
charge of the stage, and is indefati.
gable In rehearcing his people,
That he Is competent to do this Is
sufficiently proven by the fact that
he was selected by the author to go
to London, England, to stage the
play tor Mr. E, S, Willard, who
produced 1t there last September
