PARK THEATRE.

THE Belle of Richmond" southern
romance by Sidney Toler. is the opening
attraction OF the new stock company's :
season at the Park theatre and was play
ed TO crowded houses at both perform
ances yesterday. The company Is under
the personal direction OF Mr.. Barley
McCullom. one OF the best known stage
directors in New England. and is headed
by Mr. John Waldron and Miss Ethel
Clifton in the leading roles.
The play is an unusually bright one
with d pleasing comedy vein running
throughout its entirety. The scenes.
which are particularly good. are laid In
and about Richmond at the period which
is marked by the close of the Spanish
American war The story Is of two men,
both prominent in business circles, one n
lawyer, the other a bank cashier. The
men are in love with Nellie Mason.
reigning belle in the city. They meet at
her home one evening. each bringing her
n charming nosegay. which the servant is
told TO carry TO his mistress. He. being one
on those jovial southern negroes, tries very
hard TO remember the correct sender OF
the flowers, but on the way gets confused
and by the time he arrives before his mis-
tress cannot tell which bouquet was sent
by lawyer or cashier. The young lady
loves the lawyer and wears what she be-
lieves TO be his gift. In this she makes
mistake and he. thinking she has worn
the white roses of his rival TO show her
preference. decides to go away, while his
rival tells her that Gerald is going north
TO be married. She then promises to mar

to the discovery OF the real forgers also
to Nellie's finding out her mistake In the
choice OF the flowers, all of which Is
quickly rectified and Gerald and Nellie
are united.
The introduction OF vaudeville between
the acts proved to be a decided hit the
speciaIties were all i'm good hands and
well rendered
The company presenting the drama is
strong and well balanced and the good
work OF the opening performances is
sure to draw large audiences. The music
played by the orchestra are the ever-tak-
ing southern melodies OF which a music
loving audience never tire. There will be
two performances daily for the remainder
of the week. The management announces
as its next attraction woman Against
Woman" which will certainly prove as
attractive as the Belle of Richmond :"
The vaudeville sketches will also change
each week
The interior of the theatre was made
very attractive bv retouching during the
interim between the closing OF the regu-
lar and opening Of the stock seasons.

To say The Evil Men DO" Is extreme
ly enjoyable has a peculiar sound. but
Al any rate the play OF that name which
is the attraction at the Empire theatre
this week certainly gave the good sized
audience last night its fiil OF sensation,
at the same time interesting them suf-
ficiently. to keep them in an enthusiastic
st,ite until the last curtain.
IL is one of Theodore Kremer's latest
effusions and In II the Imagination of that
play wright has evidently been working
at its best. for such a succession OF ex-
citing incidents and OF wicked deeds by
man can hardly be conceived by the
average mind.
II takes five acts and 10 scenes TO tell
the story. so II is useless 10 try and give
