A melodrama of the most thrilling
sort was 1.-The Fatal Wedding" and
evidently most accepta BILE to the two
audiences that witnessed it yesterday
1t is a play to which the adjective
stirring" may most fifty be applied
The villains villainy is of the black

ish like bay trees, and virtue triumphs
at last, all to the accompaniment of
Kisses, tears and applause, from the
audience.
The acting of Miss Taylor, who takes
the leading part, was very good in
deed neither forced nor overdone. The
most prominent figure on the stage,
however, and a charming, if touching
one, was. the child-actress, little Miss
Frances Clinton. who was wonderfully
clever.
At to-day's matinee and tonight,
Manager Seeskind will present Amelia
Bingham, in The Frisky Mrs. John

Fitch, has ever done during his ca

two years the original play ran in
the city of its production, Paris, and
was one of the most successful come

capital. Necessarily, it was French
from start to finish, and could never
have stood a cold English translation.

water to throw on the fire. when I suddenly
remembered that water would spread the oil.
