When the ofHoeri entered. the string to the

A laror audience greeted Rhea's third
appearance in Montpelier. " Judith " is not
so brilliaut a drama as " Josephine, Etn
press of the Freneh," and iloes not present
so many opportuuities for tiue dramatie dis
play. It does, however, present to the
leadlng obaraoter the opportuuity to ex
hibit womanly honor and dlgntty and a
mother's lntense love for her olfspring in
wa.vs that thrill and lnaplre admiration;
and in this reaneot the drama is qttite as
interesting as " Josephine," and the acting
quile as effective, altliough there is lacking
the " pomp and eirciimstanee " of the court
of Napoleon. Mlle, Rhea is a very interest
ing peraonallty. She bas beanty of a high
and retined type; OUltUred and" graoeful,
he preaente also a nature that is full of
love and devotion, and a spirit that ktndles
with virtuous anger and resentine.nt at the
Uggeation of wrong or dishonor; she has a
preseneo and bearing that beeotne the ideal
empreea, but all these qttalitlea are aooaa-
sories to her ability as an actresa this is
always supreme and this always wins the
respeet and admiration of her andiem ...
Hers is a rare character, and she has a won-
derful oomblnatton of rare gifta. ln"Ju-
dlth " she reealls to the olnerver the Re
becca of "Ivanboe" aud fnlly ititerprets
the virtues and illustrates the graee aml
beauty of the famous Jewess of Seott's un
rivalled romauee. One wishes the nlav had
! been written for Mr. Harris as well as for
Rhea, aml that he had heen given a more
extended part. His resonaut voice aml
dlatlnot enunoiatlon, deolded manner aud
expressive features are rlt, necompanimen ts
of acting that is always strong and always
tneeta the bearer'a fulleal conoeptlon of the
reqnirementa of the oooaeton. Paul Wool-
OOtt, " Judith's " son, by little Miss Gracie
Bherwood, was a captlvating oharaoter,
with a strong reminder of the popular Little
Lord Fauntleroy, Mr. Amory as Ceoll Kn
dlcott and Miss Abell as Gladys Sinclair
did the love-niaking and presented the com
edy of the play very satisfactorily. The re-
malntng charaotera were taken with vary-
Ing degrees of suceess and coutributod their
part to bring the drama to its tragie enil
Judtth'a loss of reaaon aud pltlful ueath.

taoe "f the pulpit was beautlfully deoorated
