"Arizona."

In the course of dramatic seasons in
Philadelphia there are always two or
three plays that stand out prominent
above all others-plays that peculiarly
impress theatre goers. One of these
brilliant successes is now on its last
weeks presentation at the Walnut Street
Theatre. ARIZONA" is clearly the crown
ing triumph of Augustus Thomas as q
playwright. There is naturalness, ac-
ton pathos and thrilling scenes all blend
cd together in a pretty story well told,
and we candidiy say that no more en-
joyable play will be given in Philadelphia
this winter. The Walnut Street Thea.
trc is the Oldest in that city, and it il
All indisputed fact that the management
is Of that high character rs TO attract
the attention of theatrical powers as wei
as the general public. Mr.. Frank Howe
.Ir., cxemplities rare skill in securing tbs
choicest attractions of this and other
countries. Following ARIZONA" will be
a return engagement next week of Mr.
Richard Mansfield, who is conceded {,
he the most conspicuous and aceomp
lished actor on the American stage to
day, and then comes Miss Mary Man
ncring in Janice Meredith" Reyolu
tionary drama that has won the highes

nrctty little romance. The play is said
10 he highly melodramatic in type, with
an interesting story OF love and adven-
ture and well-developed and sensational
clinaxes. Mr.. Bonelli's stalwart ply
