Miss Wentworth was well known in

gifts have also been the recipient of gen.
erous praise. Miss Wentworth has APP
peared with the Bostonians, Lula CHASER

musical companies. The part of Louise
de Marrilac was the one instructed to her
care last week, aud the excellence of her
portrayal was the occasion of some pride
among her local admirers. Miss Went
worth has many friends and relatives in
this city who wish her every success.
