LYCEUM THEATRE.

The new vehicle in which Miss
Eugenie Blair will appear at the Ly-
ceum theatre on Thursday is a new
adaptation of one of Willie Collins
novels, entitled Her Second Life"
The role of Mercy Merrick gives Miss
Blair every opportunity to display
her talent as an emotional actress
and bids fair to out-rival her former
successes, such as "Zaza," Iris"
and "A Lady of Quality" The pro-
duction is entirely new and is elab.
crate and exquisite both scenically
and sartorially.
In the title role, Miss Blair repre-
sents a woman. more sinned against
than SHINING, who while serving as
a nurse in the Franco-Prussian war
sees a young woman of aristrocratic
birth and breeding, apparently killed
by fragment of a shell, and assumes
her clothing and name, and by hel
memoranda is enabled to present q
a letter of Introduction to wealthy
peeress as the daughter of dear dead
friend. She is adopted, becomes the
fancee of young man, friend OF
the family but the woman whom
she impersonates has been restored
to health and again enters upon the
scene. No one believes her story and
the usurper is secure. She Is touch
ed by love for Julian Grey, a clergy
man and a nephew of her benefactor
ess and makes atonement. Spurned
by her lover because of her past
/ she marries Julian Grey.
