probation with which the participants
were received and the rounds of APP
plause that greeted them. The music
was excellent and inspiring, being fur
nished by Trimmer's orchestra.

STUART ROBSON SCORES A HIT.
He Captiyates Large Audience
with His Pastoral, "The Jucklins."

| Stuart Robson has caught the character
| play fever that now pervades the stage
| and which has robbed IL of many OF It's
| best comedians. and has contaminated
| his brilliant wit with the pathos OF the
| humble farmers innocent and unwary
| life. The humor that beamed so often
| from his eyes and was spoken from his
mouth now lies buried beneath his wig
| and grease paint, and he comes before
the public of Richmond. with whom he
is a decided favorite, as supplemented
rural-looking Lem. Jucklin," full OF
moodings here and there causing smile
by his childlike speeches.
Opie Reads novel, THE Juckllns. was
lovely book to peruse. and Augustus
Thomas's adaptation OF II Is equally aS
delightful.
Mr.. Robson presented the play for the
first time in this city last evening at the
Academy. surrounded by company that
is not only mertorious to the sar but
a credit to the splendid play that Mr..
Thomas has chiselled from the book.
Mr.. Robson comes before his audience
I'm a role absolutely different from what
is expected of an artist who for so many
seasons has given only comedy OF the
lightest, almost farcial form. lie gives
a vivid and strong display of his versa.
tility in entering into the character OF
the old farmer. Lemuel Jucklin, whose
naturally brilliant brain has been Inn
paired by a blow received in his earlier
DAYS. He has made the success or ms
career. for his critics could not grow
cross at the sweet, pathetic old farmer
he has created. 1t is only words OF
praise that can be fraught against him.
and although many of his admirers viii
be wont to cry aloud at his forsaking his
long-cheTished Jasper" characters. they
will like him in the end for creating and
giving TO the stage such an artistic cha
racterization as Lem. Jucklin."
Mrs. Robson has fine vent for her
high comedy as Mrs. Patrick" She is
graceful and artistic in the role which
thoroughly becomes her.
Next to Mr.. and Mrs. Robson In me
eyes Of the audience was the "Sherin
Parker of Mr.. Thomas 4. Wise who
makes many broad and hearty laugh
by his perfect Interpretation of the big
hearted Sheriff. Mr.. Robson's entire sup
port is excellent. John Webster, Jr,
does a splendid bit Of acting as "Alf
Jucklin"; Harrison Armstrong. VINO ably
fills the role of william Halves" the
COURAGEOUS Carolnian. and Miss Ger
trude Perry a charming little ingenue,
who made a winsome and fetching "Gui-
nea Jucklin."
"The Jucklins" will be repeated at the
matinee this afternoon and tonight Mr..
Robson appears as BERTHE" in THE
Henrietta"
Mr. Augustus Thomas. the dramatizer
of THE Jucklins," occupied a seat i'm the
first view of the play since its produc-
ton, and he appeared enthusiastic over
the performance given by Mr. Robson
and his excellent company.
Mr. Robson will shortly make a pre-
sentatiOn of the play in New York

in such a way that he impressed all who

friends and few invited guests, re-
paired to the society hall, wnere, amid
the strains of the most enchanting
music. a banquet was held.

LABOR COMMISSIONER.
Governor Tyler is, If possible. giving
even closer attention to the subject Of
appointing Labor Commissioner, the
office created by the Kizer Labor Bureau
bill, than to chairman of the Board Of
Fisheries. Several names have been sug-
gested to him, but he has not made up
his mind. He said last night that he was
satisfied the office, if filled by the proper
man, would be highly beneficial TO the
laboring classes and to employers. He
wants to secure a conservative, intelli-
gent. conscientious workingman for. the
position one who is either a member of a
labor organization, or in sympathy with
trades unions. He says he has not yet
found such man, but he believes such
is in existence, and he is not going to fill
the position until he ~ discovered.
