she known Maggie Burns. and On the pro-

AS The leading lady In this play, Miss Fay had
even more swing and dash than one might gen.
orally attribute to the residents Of the district from
which she supposed to hail AS rule she
landed in the centre OF the stage in about three
Jumps. a performance which. though repeated sew

audience
It would be difficult to tell to what school OF
dramatic expression THE Belle of Avenue "A pc
longs It not the Terry school. at any rate.
One could not say that she had any stage man
nersms Neither in her acting did she resemble
TO any striking degree Mrs. Patrick Campbell In
her love scenes she was by nc means languid. The
mere fact that her chief adairer was prizelshter
made CampbeIlian languidness impossible
Those who complain of the rapidty with which
the performers IN this play have their exits and
entrances who find fault because many times an
actor disappears on the end OF boot thrust or at
a tap of the palm, should remember that in Ave

as in a New England village. The play hardly
