AT winchester Place.

Enthusiastic applause greeted the appear
ance, on Tuesday night, of the "All Star Ag-
gregation of Winchester Place" in a delight
ful comedy entitled "Ici on parle Francois.
The troubles in which man can get who
makes false pretences at speaking any other
language than his own were fOrclbly shown.
and the situations were very much apprecl-
ated by the audience, which occupied every
square inch of the large dining room; in fact,
the standing room only, sign was put out
long before the curtain went up.
Mr.. Kennedy played the ambitious land
lord-who thought he could speak French
Mrs George Stickney, as his wife, Mrs.
SpriqqtnS, made up as a character IN which
she claimed the fear of Der stage husband and
the admiration of her auditors. Mr.. Stick
new as Victor. the young Freachman, was
simply inimitable, and his impersonation OF
this very difficult character was clever in the
extreme. Major Regulds Rattan, Jealous
husband, whose ferocity was in inverse ratio
to his physique, was ceverly impersOnated
by Mr.. Z. H. Manning, whose facial make
up was wonderful in its artistic effect. Mrs.
Rattan, became a beautiful picture OF grace
fulness as impersonated by Mrs. John Baker.
AnoeEina, the young daughter of the house,
was rendered by Miss Florence Evans, and a
very difficult character was unprecedented
with a grace, simplicity and righteousness
that won her many encomiums. Her charms
of face and figure we're conspicuous elements
! of her success ARnd Maria, the "slavey,

| stated that five of the seven performers had
never before appeared on any stage, too much
