(0 ae mw igen and « Mrs. Woon made cir first appearance in Was! at the National theater last night in one of Sar- dou’s htest productions, “A Scrap of Pa- per.” The audience was a and the very start an enthusiastic one. The performance was a detightfu! one in every particular. Mrs. Kendal is more than an easy and natural ac- tress, although in comedy that about expresses | all. ‘In her way she is a genius, Every move- ment of body, every gesture has a way of tell- ing 4 whole story,in itself, Mrs. Kendal’s hands may be said to speak. Mr. Kendal also fairly divides the honors with his charming wife. He is a thorough exponent of the quiet English school of acting. Mr. and Mrs. Kendal are su; ported by an excellent company. The play it- self is spoken in English, but is filled with French piquancy. The dialogue is bright aad sparkling and many of the situations exceed- ingly taking. ALpavon's.—“Bluebeard, jr.,” starts off seemingly for a big run at Albaugh’s. “Bine- beard” is one dazzling fairy scene, consisting of gorgeous stage settings and picturesque groups to fascinate the eye and some excelient singing to please the ear. ‘The play is there too, and the many amusing situations offer good opportunities for Eddie Foy to show his power and versatility as a comedian. At times two bun people are on the stage and the effects are dazzling and wonderful, The poetic ballets, participated in by one hundred girls,are a feature of the performance. The company throughout is excellent, Miss Alice Johnson, who. by the way, is a Washingtonian, being es- pecially good as Selim, Hanais’ Bisov.—Shamus O'Brien,” an Irish play of considerable merit, was produced at this house last night, with Mr, Chas, E.

Kennan's.—The patrons of this theater were entertained by a variety performance last night which was highly satisfactory. Harry Kernel, in his pleasing Irish delineations; Nash, the bicycle “wonder, and the Braatz brothers, gyinnasts, all won applause in their specialties.
