She is possessed of an unusually pretty face and figure, and her rendering of the difficult role of the young girl, just budding into womanhood, was unusually well done. Through the scenes that are most susceptible of overactiDg ana ytt, which all of their beauty if underacted, she carried herself wonderfully well, adding touches here and there showed her confidence in her ability, yet touches that were never the least bit too strong nor the least particle tco light Her future career will be watched with interest by all who saw her last night.

The Times-Union of Jacksonville, one of the leading papers of he South, in its issue of Dec. 2. 1905, Has this flattering criticism of When We Were Twenty-One," as presented this season by Mr. Brandon Courtney's Sew York Company. V.

Esmond's beautiful little comedy-drama, 'When We Were Twenty-One" delighted two fairly large audiences at the Duval theatre yesterday, matinee and night, and those who braved the inclement weather were well repaid in every way. The story of the play, made famous by Nat Goodwin and the incomparable Maxine Elliatt, is a beautiful little heart story of faltn-fuiness to a promise given a dead comrade, and interwoven with a love motive as sweet and tender as it is unusual. The play exploits no star, each role fitting Into the other and combining to form a perfect whole; ach act a careful elaboration of the plot; every line one that is needed in the unfolding of the pretty sentiment that never becomes sentimentality. For this a well-talanced company is needed and this Mr. Courtney, who presents the play has gathered.

The toast scene in the first act, the brake reconciliation between "The Imp" and Dick" in the third, and the entire fourth act touched chords in the heart of every one in the audience that tne modern play too oiten neglects. A beautiful play' was the unanimous verdict of bcth audiences holes on the route to the river, and that it is making a very offensive odor. Thursday, Jan. 25th.
