throughout this section thatsit would be
supernous to give her history at THIS
late date. She has been seen In many
parts, and she has never disappointed
or made anything approaching failure:
She is sterling actress, always equal
to an emergency. and she touches no
thing that does not adorn. In the South
she is a very strong fayorite, and her
recent bereavement utd er the. saddest
circumstances. has created the widest
sympathy for har. She will probably be
seen in the role Of Cigarette in Under

her tact and ability to encompass.

Cigarette was the widest little Baccha-
nal that ever pirouettcd for the delight OF
half a score of soldiers in their shirt
sleeves; she was the most reckless CO.
cuette that ever made the roll call OF
her lovers range from the French marshal
TO the plough boy conscript: she had lirt-
ed as far and as wide as the butterfly
firts with the blossoms it futters to
through the range Of a summer day.
She had the coquetterie OF her nation
and the au6acity Of boy. Cigarette was
little hero; she was, moreover. des-
pera6o: but she was a child in years AND
a woman at heart. valiant and ruthless
young soldier that she might be. In
short, she was q little faggot of oppo-
sites. child, soldier. a dancer, a Dri-
gand, spoilt beauty, a mischievous
gamin. It is almost impossible to follow
the windings Of her hayward caprices.
ANOTHER INTERESTING CHAR
ACTER.
Another very interesting character In
this play is that of Rake BERTHE Cecil's
valet The love that he bore his master
was very much such a Wild chivalrous
romantic fidelity as the cavalier bore to
their Stuart idols. That his benefactor
had become soldier of Africa in no way
lessened the love or his loyalty any more
than theirs was lessened by the ADVERSE
ties of their royal masters. Like theirs.
also, it had its beauty in its blindness
the beauty that lies in every pure unset
fishness.
The play will be mounted with all OF
Mr. Citizens ingenuity and skill The
sandstone scene will introduce mechan-
ical effect that was seen here last sum-
mer, and the broadsword duel between
BERTHE Cecil and his colonel is one of the
thrilling incidents of the piece.
