star, Henry Beresford, young actor OF
exceptional comedy character talent,
who bids fair to win a more prominent
place. The play is very clever, and the
complications are funny. Mr.. Beres-
ford gets a great deal out of the leading
role, which he plays in easy style, with
Just enough of the farcical to suit the
whimsical plot. He has a good COM
pany, but he is principally the show.

star and the play hilariously, and it is
an entertaining piece for the holiday
