This season has proven an exception to the rule only in the remarkable warmth of that afore- mentioned welcome. It was indicated by the women who predominated at Miss Blair's opening performance—a matine | Wednesday afternoon—and was taken up Jointly by the men and women who filled the big theater to overflowing last night. Little can be said of Miss Blair's ca- pabllity in the leading role of “A Lady of Quality.”” S0 general is the opinion of her | superlative excellence that additional praise were manifestly unnecessary. Suffice it to way that Miss Blair shows improvement over her former efforts, and that is saying u great deal. Somehow she seems to bring out the finer, the more delicate, tho more womanly qualities of Clarinda Wildal | the woman, which contrast and conden somewhat the faults of Clo Wildairs, the shrew, the hoyden, the untamed girl. With A subtlety that is frresistible she makes the character appeal to one, even though he be determined to find no good in the wo- man because of the fatal step of the girl She invests Clarinda Wildairs with a won- derful personmality, attractive and com- | mendable, and it is, indeed, a one who would think other than that he was more sinned against than sinning. It is, however, of Miss Blair that kind | words must be spoken, for her vehicle is encumbered with many flaws. To dispute its popularity would be to deny the sun, but, nevertheless, Miss Blair's friends be- lieve that the future holds greater thing: accomplished. With a good play and a capable company Miss Blair will shine with a brilliancy surpassed by few The play is put on with an adequate | scenic investiture, the scene of the rose garden being one of the prettiest imagin- | Miss Blair and of the stagecraft acces | sories there is little more to be sald.
