When We Were TwenGv-one.
There is always a great difference OF
opinion expressed concerning the worth
of a play Of the class of "When we were
Twenty one" which was presented at
Howe Opera House Thursday evening,
and perhaps this production was no ex.
ceptlon to the rule. The audience was
much smaller than might have been ex-
pected, considering the fact that this
piece has been so much discussed during
the past few months, and that we rarely
have an opportunity to witness so meri-
torious production in st. Johnsbury.
The play lacks most of the features that |
many play-goers dote on. There is no
villain to hiss, nor broken hearted lover
to weep with, and no funny man to
laugh at. In the play the love OF Rich
ard Carew for his ward, who is the son
1t dead friend, furnished the central
heme of the story. The ward who is
licknamed 1.-THE imp" has just reached
lis Dist year and is engaged to Phyllis
ericsson. The plot of the play is the dis
overy of the fact that the young people
10 not care for each other, and that the
cal love affair is between Phyllis and
Richard Carew himself The parts in the
'lay were all exceptionally well taken,
he company being one of the strongest
hat ever visited st. Johnsbury. In fact +
may be said that with the exception I
t The Senator" the piece with which t
he opera house was opened, and Sol ..
mlth Russel's presentation of "a Poor
'elation," Thursday evenings play was +
he most finished production ever seen on :
local stage. The acting of William
1orris as Richard Carew and Miss Flor
nee Wickliffe as Phyllis Ericsson was fault Z
SIS and they received first class support
ON every member of the company.
Mary Howe.
The announcement that Vermonts ia
orlte singer, Mary Howe, is to appear
St. Johnsbury always brings pleasure q
our music loving people. She has APP
cared here several times and on each A
ccasion has been given an enthusiastic u
ception. Last winter she appeared +

and, William LAWN, was one. This t.
ason she is making a tour of Vermont i. &c

rtormance given at that time is too a.
I'll remembered to need special mention. eL
lie combination is one of rare merit. ii
