The American Girl.

There are few modern plays that equal
"The American Girl" introducing the
comedian, Mr.. Geo. F. Hall. In fact,
Mr.. III. Grattan Dornelly has written
something that should live; it is perfect
from a dramatic standpoint.
The play has strong situations. there is
nothing of the impossible about it, and
the climaxes are good. There is a de-
lightful little story in it which is well
told, and the moral lis excellent. There
are indeed passages that appeal to- the
heart in no light manner, and the per-
sen who can witness the action of the
play with eyes perfectly dry is Gallons to
an abnormal degree The world is bet
Ter for little bit of sympathy with the
trials Of bare and deserving woman
and in this play there is cause for tears.
There is no sentiment TO tire one. 1t is
