THE American Girl" is the name
Of Mr.. A. @. Scammon's interes ting
comedy drama which will be pre-
sented at Swisher's Theatre tonight.
The title in itself will appear to
every American, to the ladies as a
matter of curiosity, and to the gen
tlemen for the reason of rightful ad-
miration. This may be one Of the
causes of the remarkable financial
success of the play, which however,
may be mainly attributed to the
fact that the splendid work of the
author, II Grattan Donnelly, is most
artistically supplemented by the clev-
er star, George F. Hall, who is ably
supported by an excellent company.
