Those who missed seeing Georgia Cayvan
and her supporting company at the opera
house last evening, missed one OF the dra-
matte treats Of the season. II was the
occasion OF Misc Cayvan's first appearance
In Houston. She has been South before
but never in Texas, professionally at least,
until now. II Will certainly be the wish
Of all who enjoyed her work last evening
that she viii hnd II to- her interest not to
rass Houston by In succeeding seasons.
The play was the beautiful pastoral drama
Squire Kate" which three or four ye ,rs
ago was one of the great successes Of the
New York Lyceum Theater company. OF
which Miss Cayvan was the leading lady.
The play has been rearranged especially
for Miss Cavyan this season and after an
absence OF two years from the stage she
is making an Independent success at the
head of her own company.
''Snuire Kate" Is love story pure and
simple but a pathetic one. Catherine
Thorpe loves George Hcathcote. but the
latter not suspecting this has given his
whole heart to GATHERINGS little sister and
charge. Hetty who is also ignorant of
GATHERINGS love for George. The discov-
cry by Catherine and the others OF the
true state OF affairs develops the dramatic
incidents and pathos OF the play. The
scenes are natural and the action smooth
and intensely interesting. Last evening the
piece was eXcelleatly STAGED and the hay
field In the second act especially realistic
There can be 10 question OF Miss Cay
vans talent or general attraotlYeness as an
actress. Easy, graceful yet strong and
earnest and Intelligent in her portrayal OF
the brave. honest. self sacrificing character
OF "Sauire Kate" she carried the Interest
aud sympathy Of her audience with her
from beginning to end. Only for once. II
