Shore Acres.
The great English critic, Mr.. Will
liam Archer. is an enthusiastic adj
mirer of James A Herne and his work,
and in his lectures he has publicly
commended Mr.. Herne's ability, both
as actor and playwright. Mr.. Archer
thinks Mr.. Herne ought to make Lon
don his home, and he has assured the
actor-dramatist that if he ever visits
the British metropolis the public will
never permit him to return. Messrs.
Henry Irving. Wilson Barrett. Will
liam Terriss, John Hare, Hall Game
and /. Zangwill are among the many
other prominent actors and play
wrights who have bespoken Mr.. Herne
royal welcome abroad. One and ell
OF them are convinced that Shore
Acres will prove a genuine revelation
to London theater patrons, and Mr..
Game predicts the piece will run a
year or longer. A superb scenic rep
resentation of this famous home play
will be given at the Opera House to-
day, matinee and night.
