Lady Gwendolln. who managed her campaign with great foresight, si-cured a number to people of the commercial and manufacturing cbuuea. Her object was to leave society of her calculations, rather directing her efforts to those directly Interested In great money making oonIn this she w«a wise. Society men are pot usually matrimonially Inclined. and 'the rich manufacturers who largely are without the prestige of family no sooner get rich than they begin to crave a family tree. One of the visitors' letter* gave them n Invitation to visit tbe owner and president of the Mix Manufacturing company. There was no man present except old -Mr. Mix. who was married, and Lady Gwendolln at once resolved cat tbe visit short. Bat Mr. Mix In•ted on showing them through tbe vorks of tbe company. They were comply—that is. Lady Gwenlolln was. Her friend was quite anxe the plant The president Inconduct his titled guests bimutlf. but arriving at his office found a -natter awaiting him requiring his lmnediate attention, so be turned them rrer to tbe secretary. Tbe secretary ei them through various workshops till he came to tbe foundry. There be turned them over to a workman In iveralls with grimy bands and a nnudged face. Now. Laffy Gwendolln bad no mind to spend her time In America looking mechanical contrivances explained by a greasy mechanic, and throughout, the tour of Inspection of tbe foundry she showed her Impatience. Not so her friend. She lUrtruod politely to all tbe workman said, asking him many questions. Indeed se minutely did she look Into everything that Lady Gwendolln napped: “Well. If you want to make a foundry woman of yourself, I’m going to sit here and wait till you get through." She threw herself an a bench, raising _er skirts so as not to come In contact with the cinder floor, and waited impatiently for the end of the impaction. When Lucy Rennerty could find nothin ore of Interest she thsnkwd her luctor with her sweetest smile, and the two-ladles left the foundry. "Good gracious. Lucy.” exclaimed Lady Gwendolln, “how could you be so familiar with a common workman?" “I found him perfectly familiar with tbe manufacturing processes, and all such things Interest me," replied the

ther.

Lady Gwqndolln's American trip a failure. She received a number of bites, but there were no fortunes among them, and nothing except a fortune would avail. She went back to England protesting that the would rather many a government clerk than American. The latter had no respect for birth and were too busy mak Ing money to become gentlemen. Lucy Kennerly, on tbe contrary, expressed much pleased with the country and the people and fancied tbe way ' * men's eons devoted themselves to setive buslneas instead of becoming social puppets. The fellow travelers failed to mneb of each other for some months after their return. Then one day 1 Kennerly wrote Lady Gwendolln nounclng hgr engagement and asking her friend to officlste st tbe wedding. It must come off at one*, since she to marry one of tl . . ' who couldn't spare enough' to consummate their marti _ . _ ertv. Miss Kennerly wrote an Illegible hand and the recipient of tbe note could not make out the groom's Lady Gwendolln had noticed while in America the attentions of a poor — piety man to her friend and had wi ed Lucy against him.

A large audience was immensely pleased laid night by (he Drury ritock Company's very fine performance of this breezy Western drama. This company's presentation of the play has been ranked by competent critic* the equal of anything done by Ae more pretentious oium of the proMias Eiois Bertram was the bright stellar attraction of the evening, bhc brought to her part all the purity and freshness of the Western plains of two decades ago. Mis* Bertram'sari makes her every characterization something wondered at and her M Tiss seems the very acme of her accomplish The Yuba Bill of Roland Sedgw ick as a fine Western type; hale, bluff ad hearty. Nothing was overdone, ren in the most strenuous situations. He deserves credit for his fine w ork. Frank B. Coigne as the young school master was a splendid feeder to MTiss. His work was thorough and masterly, but the part admitted of no great scope for the display of Mr. Coigne's recognized talents. Mr. Edward Melcombe portrayed the old drunkard Smith very fairly. The honors of tbe comedy and charster work fell to Messrs, du Freyne and Holby. The latter gave one of the best-rounded performance! of a wild and woolly judge we have ever seen here or*Ylsewhere. His Judge Beesw hanger is worth going a long way to "isefe. Mr. du Freyne as the broken down' tragedian was a revelation. HU vagger and get-up were uproariously funny and pleased hugely, as attested by the approbation of every one. • Mr. Carberry , a newcomer to ibis excellent organization, made a good impression in a distasteful character. We hope to see him essay something less

devilish.

Jennie Holby was seen in a small part and looked very sweet. The sellings were very nice and the management of the stage a credit to the company.
