At was very eleVerly staged the
NlHes rlch in their color and gorgeous
~, W q uestee' ana the lines said in most
HatuIai way, Miss Mollie Nelson as Ca
ihllie was prettier in the title role than
ny othef VINO has attempted to play It
mere She IS decidedly a most charming
Souis woman, aud IS, from the fact that
9He IS OF medium stature, graceful, fair,
ana decided brunette, peculiarly fitted for
me part assigned to Camille in this play.
MISS Nelson was handsomely gowned and
appeared nothing short of a picture. Her
INES We're said with remarkable ease and
emotion, While her movements were per

ROBSON and MIR. Steven was very good In
Iacl II Is in measure due TO the efforts

camille was rendered SO beautiful The
ROBSON Theater Company is a very clever
repertoire organization and has charmed
audiences at McDonald's during the

Barlow's minstrels will open next week
at the theater. A Western paper says of
the company: Barlow's minstrels is a
strong aggregation, and the first part set
ing Is the finest ever seen on the local
stage. That minstrelsy is sull popular
with fun lovers was evident; and it is
worthy Of mention, that while farces and
meio-dramas come, and fall by the way
side, clean out minstrelsy will go on Just
the same; and while it has amused the
many in the past, 1t will continue to
amuse a great many more, before the last
bones have ratified into dust, and the last
tambo has been shattered.
The conspicuous hit of George H. Broad
bursts farce, what Happened to Jones'
in New York, where 1t had such a long
run of four months at the Bijou Theater
attracted widespread attention and COM
ment and made the author the man of
the hour as far as theatricals are con-
cerned, The play will be presented in Sa-
vannah Tuesday night, and the following
by a prominent critic, is an example of
what is generally said: Mr. Broadhursts
success with What Happened 10 Jones'
recently threw a half score of adapters
translators and general monkeyers from
the French into indignant mysteries. This
modest and very unassuming young man
has simply succeeded by dint of perse-
verance and ability, which should inspire
The vast army of aspirants with hope He
was absolutely unknown a couple of years
ago; he was the despised of managers and
outside of the ring Yet he has come 10
the front unaided. Prominent managers
had nothing to do with the success of Mr.
Broadhurst and I want that fact to be
digested." The cast Is an excellent one,
and includes John Allison. H. G. Hockey
