This is considered by many critics as Mr. Ktene's greatest character and it calls for the full strength, ot hit superb company. Keene is just coming out of the South and the following Is copied from a recent issue of the New Orleans Times-Democrat: Thomas W. Keene opened an engagement at tbe opera house last night in the grand and ever-tascinating play of "Richelieu." He was greeted by an audience that filled the house from pit to dome, and they thoroughly enjoyed the fine performance throughout. The piece is elegantly staged, and the costumes, which are those of the time when the cardinal flourished, when tbe men were as vain of their dress as tbe ladies now are, were magnificent and added very greatly lo the stage effects.

Mr. Keene in his characterization of the prince of diplomats represents him in his varying moods and different situations with a sublety of touch and delicacy of finish lhat show a close study and a thorough grasp of Ihe compli- caled character of Ihe cardinal. His portrayal of the feeble old man was as great as a physical impersonation as his presentation of Ihe crafly cardinal was as a mental delineation. In his rapid transitions from dejection to insinuation and from insinuation to lofty scorn, Mr. Keene did as finished and scholarly a piece of work as has been witnessed here in a long time, his fine flexibility of voice enabling him to give the cardinal in such a way as to make the audience understand how it was possible for the cardinal in real life to have deceived those abont him or left them doubt aa to his real meaning.

The sale of reserved seats begini this morning at confectionery aad the house will undoubtedly be one of the largest on record at tlie Academy.
