The plays presented by Fannie
Rice and her company at the Gen
nett last night were fine, and were
highly appreciated by all. The first

good deal of amateurism in it, and
made the people rather impatient
because Miss Rice Tor Mrs. Purdy)
did not appear, yet there was some
meritorious work in it by Miss Dud-
ley and Mr. Cherry. When Miss
Rice appeared she was given an ova-
ton as she is Richmond favorite.
She appeared first in 1.-The Circus

has ever been presented here, and

She took the audience by storm. The
clssing number, The Milliner S
Bill, was a spicy and realistic little
bit, and pleased the audience i'm
mensely.
