Concerning Miss Willmer's work
the Monmouth. H.. Daily Review
says:
Before an audience that emalled in
number that of the opening night.
when Nine. Schumann- Heink gave
her recital Miss Wilmer completely
won the hearts Of the Monmouth peo-
pie.
The most eloquent testimony that
could be given i'm regard To Miss Will
mer and her recital Of last evening
was the profound stiffness that pre.
vailed during her entire reading. Miss
Wilmer held her audience completely
IN her power and scarcely "A person
left the tent during the time she was
telling her story.
Her dramatic ability is wonderful
yet it is no more wonderful than her
versatility. There were many charac-
tiers to portray, yet her story was made
so vivid that the audience was made

they were living in the troublous times
Of Nero.
The Sign Of the Cross" as given last
night WAS Miss \Villmer'c dou,n lro,,,
atization of Wilson Barrett's great
book, and much honor is due her for
the skill shown in selecting the most
important scenes ard connecting them
in so clear a manner.
The story as told last night. is one
OF beautiful Christian strength i'm the
face of the most trying persecution
during the reign of Nero. II is the
story of the persecution of the Chris
tlans. when no pity was shown, even
to the children and the aged. Rome
had Just been reduced to ashes. and the
Nero. seeking to place the
blame for the deed, had falsely ac-
used the followers of the rapidly
growing Christian band. To satisfy his
hatred for them he had decreed that
they should be burned at the stake or
given to The lions in the arena.
At the close of this scene and of the |
play Miss Wilmer reached the height |
If her dramatic ability and storm Of |
applause showed that her masterful |
Effort had been appreciated as it de-
served

Why not take the powerful force
