RoIand Reed and IsadOre Rush in
Two Plays.

Roland Reed and Isadore Rush delight
Cd two audiences yesterday. Lend Me
your Wife" was the matinee bill, ana
His Fathers Boy" was presented at
nisbt The latter play had not been seen
here before. though Mr.. Reed played it IN
other cities during last season.
His Fathers Son" is an amusing farce
from the pen of Sidney Rosenfield, but in
H other than in such competent hands as
Il Mr. Reeds and Mss Rush's, it would be
H rather flat Its plot is of the complicated
II sort. based upon mistaken identity and kin
II dred attendants. The story Is tod in a
H breezy fashion and the action of the piece
is fast though this quality is largely con-
ributed TO by the efforts of the stars.
Il Among the players that visit Savannah
II Mr.. Reed and Miss Rush are among the
n most popular and they never fail to Gre
n ate enjoyment. Mr.. Reeds quaint humor
II and peculiar mannerisms are as quaint
II and amusing as ever, and they are Of a
H kind that never grow stale but seem to
H please one more the oftner he is seen.
Miss Rush is one of the most pleasing
n and graceful actresses on the stage, and
II Mr.. Reed were of a jealous nature he
might have cause to fear that his fair
copartner would outshne him in public
favor In the role of Mrs. Pennie, Miss
a Rush figures as a mother of a grown
daughter and it was a trifie incongruous to
n see such charms in the character, but one
would forgive this rather than lose the de
lcious manner of the actress. Miss Rush
continues to be one of the best appearing
actresses on the stage, though she is not
so full of figure as she was last season.

well placed Miss Alter, Miss Luce, Mr.
