"a LADY OF QUALITY wide
play Of human passion furnished in Mrs
Burnett's and Mr.. Townsend's Lady of
Quality gives the members of the Bel
lows Stock Company some excellent oppor-
tunities for the display of the versatility of
it's members. Last nights performance in
dicated disposition on the part of all the
company to do their best, stirred perhaps by
the ambitious requirements Of the roles
Undoubtedly there were occasions when
they failed to measure the full depth Of
feeling required by the somber lines of the
play, and at times there was lack of hon.
est mirth In the intended humorous scenes,
but every failure to attain the high stand
ard set in previous productions of the play
by other companies was due to no lack Of
conscientious effort.
Mr.. White Whittleseys love-making with
the lady of quality was delightful bit of
idealism In an otherwise revolving series of
events. 1t is followed by the shameless,
brutal boasting Of Mr.. John T. Sullivan's
"sir John Oxon." over the ruin he has
wrought in the life of young woman who
had loved him, and the contrast of the two
characters is thrown into prominent relief
These two men do the best work Of all the
company.
Miss Lillian Lawrence's statuesque beauty
fits her to deserve the toast that was drunk
to her by the. ttpsy parson, and II she could
sympathize her voice to some Of the in
success
would be greater. The play is beautifully
staged. with scenic accessories upon an
adequate scale, and the costumes are rich
and handsome. Last nights audience gave
evidences of appreciation Of the care be-
slowed upon the mechanical effects and was
not slow to reward the best efforts Of the
players.

n number OF barrels of reading matter for soldiers
IN Manila received on this pier, but where
companies deliver packages the original point OF
shipment Of these packages is not known by them.
AS there is nothing on the packages show from
where they came. it is impossible tG say whether
the particular barrel referred to has been received
here not.

packages are received, that there be means

able this office to advise shippers. Very respect
