.srHE AMERICAN GIRI..,

It always enhances the charms and attractions of a play to know that a local player Is appearing even in a minor role; much more Is this true when q former local fayOrite, young lady who was widely known and had host of friends. appears in the title role. Such was the case last evening when the A. l.. Scannon company pre- sented. at Polls theater. '.The Ameri- can Girl,v four act play. half drama and half farce. in which George F. Hall and Miss Dorothy Simpson are enacting the stellar roles. Miss Simp- son is a Waterbury young lady. To d person who was present at Polls last evening there is no need of mentioning fhIs fact. inasmuch as one could easily perceive 1t from the spontaneous and enthusiastic applause which greeted her first appeaFance in this city. Miss Simpson must indeed feel flattered to- day of being the recipient of such a cordial greeting at her home city. A conventional role Is hers. Her charm ing personality and her physical beau fy make her the proper person to DOT tray. as she did in the early part of the play. a bright, cheerful and 1.-the American girl. plain and simple, yet strong and noble. In her portraiture of the deserted. poverty stricken wife in the second act, though an almost different role. she was just as strong. And so throughout the play she was prime fayOrite, as was we'll attested by the many handsome flowers which she received at the conclusion of each act 'sThe American Girr' company numbers in it's roll another former resident of Waterbury. George F. Hall 9Ir Hall and his abilities are too well known to require any lengthy com lnent. Suffice 1t to say that he is comedian of the old school. whose sal lies. though sometimes a little antique. are funny, and Furthermore are devoid of vulgarity. He received hearty reception from his many friends in this city who were present in large numbers. The role of Twister, after wards Saratoga. was played to perfec- ton by Miss Frankie St John The young lady, who is vivacioHs and win some, sang and danced admirably. Sir ohm Balfour. an English gentleman; Philip DeyaIi. an artist: Samson Craft, "a very confidential agent, were capa- zbly portrayed respectively by Frank kAuburne. G.

THE GIRL ERoAI PORTO RICO.

Opening with special matinee to- morrow, .'The Girl From Porto Rico ,'' will be the attraction at the Jacques during the balance of the week. It is a comedy, pure and simple. having no other purpose than to compel laughter and produce merriment, and it is well constructed to that end. Tommy Shear CT. who plays the chief comedy role, has made a name for himself as q prime funmaker. and Mis- Isabelle Fletcher, who plays the. title role, is likewise a Jolly o-0yxedienne. The play ought to prove attractive to showgoers who like to laugh.
