In response to the insistent demand made by those who knew of the excellence of the first two performances of Jerome's fine play, and those who had heard of it, the A.D.C. staged it again last night at the Lyceum Theatre and it seemed to be the general opinion of those who could make comparisons that the performance was even better than those preceding it. Some little criticism of the acting had appeared and it could not but be noticed that the company, evidently willing to learn—or to do everything possible to please—followed several of the suggestions made.
Certainly it was a most finished performance. Mr. H. E. Muriel, in particular, and Mrs, Covhrane somewhat overshadowed the others, but the play tends to that, especially with an amateur cast. Yet there was not a weak character and altogether it was a most enjoyable evening.
At the conclusion there were repeated calls for Mr. Muriel and the producer and many floral rewards were handed up for the ladies.
