The plot OF the Girl and the Judge" by
Clyde Fitch. which Miss Annie Russell
Will present at the Providence Opera
House this week is one OF the most dar-
ing and original that even that uncon-
ventional author has evolved. II turns
upon the fact that the mother OF the
heroine Is a kleptomaniac. Miss Russell
has part Of mingled pathos and humor.
which is said to exhibit her powers 10
better advantage than ever before.

Andrew Mack Is one OF the incest things
that ever happens 10 and knows no coun-
ter attraction. Next Monday evening at
the Providence Opera House this charm
ing young player will appear in Sayre's
delicious comedy drama. Tom Moore"
which he will present for the last time on
that occasion. TON Moore" is quite
the neatest, most tHtelligently built play
ever handed over the footlights as straight
from the "ould' sod and as rule the
stunning inventions OF the modern writers
OF plays OF this type are beyond hope OF
Intervention or common sense hints.
They've had them so long that way they
thought they liked them. SO nobody until
Mack came along, ever found out about
the actual poets and adventures and ro-
mantle scapegoats and ballad mongers
belonging to Ireland. BY and by merry
Andrew shall have revived the romantic
history Of the dear little isle" jauntily
until IL will cease to woefully shake its
head and sigh "gadoch gadoch." Mr..
Mack will have a large, as well as very
strong company I'm the presentation. while
the scenery and costumng will be ac-
curate. II requires the services of IS
players TO present the pretty play.
