The prmcmi:l parts are taken by Harry Jackson, W. Gleason, Charles Bates, Henry Napier, Charles Hand, Carmeletfa Yost and Mina Gleason. There was one trio that re- cefved unstinted applause.

I forwent the Frawleys last night in what was doubtless a very decent per- formance of a Daly comedy to go over the way to the Columbia and see the Messrs.

With the exception of Miss Nellie | Hawthorne, who pipes a dainty little | Jegend about “The Willow Pattern Plate,” there seems to be no one in the company who can sing with human re- suits. There are three young women who sing a trio ia the same number of | keys, and there are vocal sololsts whose | lives would not be secure on a Sundav | night at the Orpheum, and there is not & good new song in the entire perform- | ance. | Mathews and Bulger (especially Bul- ger) are clever fellows, but it is only | in their old spectalty act that they have | any chance.

Blanche Bates and Frawley are a well- matched couple in the reconciliation scene in Valabreque’s neat comedy, “Love in ‘Harness,” presented at the Baldwin last | night. «'Tis true, Miss Bates is rather| tall for him, but she leans down upon his | shoulder as though she belonged there. | There is not much out of the common in the role of Una Urquhart, the jealous and discontented wife of the play, but the actress has made a flesh and blood | part of it. Where there was much temp- tation and opportunity to overact she simply played the part as the audlence at once realized that it should be played— with human interest and action. The comedy, while it lacks the uproarious ac- tion, the broad humor and many ridicu- lous situations of “The Gay Parisians,” is clean and neat. There are no Sugges- tions of the improper, and the fun is in- nocent and_ mnaturally born. “Love in Harness” 18 a probable plece, not a miracle play, where the most es- tounding events occur by supernatural agency and are taken as a matter of courss by the actors and the audience. Frawley and Hickman played their parts as the forsaken husbands quietly and naturally, and the creases in their pants were faultless. Mathieu has a very small role—in fact, that of a walkin, entle- man, and it 18 so small, indeed, that it does’ not matter much whether he plays it well or lly. The women of the comedy were excel- lent, and the piece went off with a snap and go that was most refreshing to the first nighters. The Alhambra. A declded novelty was presented last evening at the Alhambra.
