Mr. Davis, advance airent for the Janet Waldorf dramatlo company, was in mo vauey mis ween arranging lor the production of the play "Ingomar." tie nau intended billing for tno enter tainment in this city but the opera house was engaged for the 29th.. the only date be could play, and in conse quence be billed (or Jacksonville on that date. The company will play at no other town In the valley. A special train will run from Medford if enough tickets aro sold to warrant the expense. Here la what the Oreeonlan. of date January lO'.h, bos to say of the company: A good-sized audience was attracted to the Marquara Grand laBt night by Janet Waldorf In the play of "Ingomar.'' Tho part of Parthcnia, made famous by Mary Anderson and Julia Marlowe Taber, was a thorough test of Miss Waldorf's strength in horolc lines, and she proved beyond a doubt that she is capable of winning the favor of the fiuouo in a rolo tbat bas long been a avorito ono with debutantes in the winning of their first laurels. It is rullurly suited for tbat purpose, aa requires ingenuousness and sensi bility, such as comes only with youtb. Miss Waldorf succeeded admirably in throwing into tbo part a happy blend ing oi purity ana priue, without dis maying any oi tno sentimentality mat s so ofton engendered bv it. as a psoudoctassic role. There was not a tedious moment from the first scene to the last. Mr. William McVey, who was atone time leading man to Mar garet Mather, played tho part of Ingo mar, ana no succeeded most eirecllyeiy in showing the real nobility of tbe man through the wild lawlessness of the barbarian. Mr. Dave Murdock was an excellent Polydoae, and Mr. George Hornandez continued to put consider able humor Into tho part of the timid una vacillating Myron. This is Miss Waldorf's first season on tho stage, and she Is destined to make a great success of it, if all bur work Is as oapably done as was Partbenia last nlgbt. Tbe company will play Oregon and California tons and cities and will play a return engagement in Port land, giving "As You Like It" and ."Romeo and Juliet." Admission 60 cents. ... :.
