Miss Thurston Is Herself.
Miss Adelaide Thurston has aalarge
number OF friends and admirers In
Richmond. and most Of them were at
the Academy last evening to see her
In new play. Miss Thurston is
petite and charming actress OF some
what limited ability, but undeniably
clever as a Coincidence. The word
"cute" would TT her about as well
as any other adjective. and her pic-S
turesque appearance In a sailors cos
tumo elicited nun1berless obs and
"ahs" from tho feminine auditors.
"ThcS Girl From Out Yonder' is one
OF the crudest of melodramas, depicting
life on the coast. It possesses every
feature of this class Of play save the
Storm without which 1t seemed like
drama OF the plains minus gun
Miss Thurston invests the titular role
with an ingenious girlishness, and
were 1t not for the peculiar knack
she has of making any role she plays
seem thoroughly congenial. the play
would have been a dismal failure. Her
manager seems bent on surrounding
her with the most commonplace actors
that can be found, and apparently
without reason. for she is certainly
deserving OF far better support than
ts afforded by the seven or eight men
and women associated with her this
season. No fault could be found with
the staging OF the production. Next
season should find this capable young
woman doing better things. or. II not,
Ilet her return to Polly Primrose
When .'The Yankee Consult was first
produced at the Broadway Theatre,
New York, tho magnificence OF the
gowns worn by the members of the
chorus aroused widespread comment.
Those original costumes have outlived
their usefulness, but Manager John 2.
slocum has provided exact duplicates
OF them. which will give the young
ladies OF Richmond some novel ideas in
| the methods OF Partisan medistes.
The Consul will be at the Academy
to-day, matinee and night.
Commenting upon James O'Ncill's

This is supposed to be Mr.. O'Neill's
farewell appearance in this role. and
this Is to be regretted. The popularity

The Master Painters Association Is stu
holding out against the demands OF the
striking journeymen, and the members
have avowed themselves as being de-
terminal not to recede an inch from
their present determination. There are

have agreed to give their men a week
in which to return or give up their
jobs, and they are holding their posi-
lions vacant until the end OF that
time. At the end OF the week, If the
strikers are still out, non-union labor
will be taken in.
