The mo3t fashionable audience of

Bird" at the Academy of Music last
night. : . ' -I j; -j ,
The - play was well balanced and
everybody enjoyed it. It deals witn
the most sacred relationsmarriage
and the greatest impelling force in
life love. As a. play "The Mummy
and the Humming Bird'' is a lesson;
a study in human nature, the differ

wife of a wealthy Londoner, accus

she thinks is capable of giving her
happiness. The husband fllea in
pursuit and traces her to the rooms
of the villian, but outwits him. . In
the last act the climax la reached.
She runs away, ; thinking she has

is a great actor and suitably termed
"the clever young American, actor."
He is perfectly at ease on the state

Paul Gilmore plays the, part of the
nusDana witn a poise and reatrnlnr
that are admirable. H? does nor n.

his carriage graceful and his manner

organ-grfnder he exhibits some talent
for the lighter comedy touches.
