In many respects it was really & marvelous bit of actiug. The play is intensely dramatic, stron g in plot, - teresting as to story and tainted with sug gestions of immorality just enough to make it fascinatine. The character assumed by Miss Coghlan is of such type us to full test the powersof any artist. There are very few stars beforethe public now capable of handling itat all, and more especia before respeetable andiences. Among those who have dared to undertake the part in recent years, Miss Coghilan’s interpretation of it is certainly superior to any He conception adds more refined of the brond, harsh, dissipated teatures than theatre-goers, especially in this section, have accustomed to secing. In addition to dramatic_business. which ranked very high, she dressed the character m & manner that has nev beforo been approached, uppearing in a different costume 1 each of the three acts. Tothe ladics present those gowns wmust have been objects of great admiration and pleasing beauty. They were indeed magnificent. As “Forget Me Nou” is played virtually by four people, Miss Coghlan’s’ support was all t could be desirea. Mr. John ‘. Sullivan as ir Horace Webley sharcd the honors with her, while Miss Agnes Thomas and Miss Alice Fairbrother, us Alice Verney and Mrs Foley, respectively, deserve the highest praise. Allin all, it was a powerful and well conducted performance “Lost in New York and appreciative andienc housc last night. The perf smoothly and was well rece -— Mortus The aged father of Mrs w.

W. J. Harsha's Appeal to the “avored Little Ones of Omaha, My Dean Litrie Friesos:—Last yoar about this time I addressod a letter to you, asking you to save up your pennies until E Christmas time to buy presents for the poor childron. Muny of you respdnded nobly, and you remember how much happinoss your generosity brought to 500 familios of littio ones to whom Santa Claus would not huve gone had it not been for you. Now. what was good to do last year is good to do this year. Thore are just as many poor, destitute children in the city now as then; rhiaps there are more. At all ovents, our obligation to them is as groat as ever; and | trust you will be just as ready to help mo to make them happy A Kind physician was telling me, just last week, of the mise of a family into which he was called, The fathor was away, 1think, and the mother was sick. There were several children and they had no ol to care for them, they nad gono to sleep all sorts of shapes and positions on the floo wherever they had become too tired to play any longer. They were dirty and ragged and looked vory forlorn lying abaut in the corners and on the floor. Santa Claus would not go to them, und they knew nothing at all of the pleasures of Christmus. There are hundreds of such families here in Omaha, and We ire ol to try to reuch every one of them with some gift, howover simplo. So, if you have any pennies you can spare, or playthings you have not quite worn out, and if you will send them to me, or tell mewhore Tcan get them, I will see that thoy are used in such & way ns to make some sad little heart haopy. If you could only have gouo around with the gind ladies who distributed YOUF gifts last year, you would have had your heurts made glad. This year we will try to describe some of the cases and places visited, and 1 know that you will ve greatly interested., Poriiaps 1 may say to the older people who read this request that the work described above doos not tond in_any way to pauperizo tho recipients of the gifts; bocause tho at tempts is confined to trying to make Christ mus & bright day to those to whom it would otherwise be dull and without uny chris suggestion. It is revognized that promiscu ous giving is ofton the purest mistake, but there'can’ be no harm in throwing u little Urightness into the life of an innocent child whose manhood and love of the beautiful may thus bo awakened. Omaha has always been noted for her generosity to her poors and 1 1y safely venture to Urge parents o assist me in my Bitempis to 8o train the gencrosity of the child in those of th | 0, by awakening their interest own age loss favorably situ- ated, that our city’s traditions 1 this aireoc- tion may be continued and increased.
