Brooks the stage has ever seen, has
played this part ever since the play
was first produced at the Astor Thea
tre, New York. Frank G. Burton, while
not the first to play Capt. Williams,
soon succeeded Frank Sheridan who
originated the part; his Capt Will
Jams is doubtless one of the best per-
formances Of this character this play
has seen. Miss Mabel Acken as EN-
ma Brooks has met with favor every
where.
Miss Agnes Herndon, the we'll
known actress, is still seen in the
part of Mrs. Harris, as is Miss Lillian
Claire as Beth Harris. Mr.. Albert
