The New York Press says of the at traction at the Academy here Friday n?eht: " 'That Imprudent Young Couple1 is an ambitious piece and ia most pleasantly fitted to the exacting Tpnuirements of the Empire Theatre's clientelle. There is an abundance of bright dialogue and much action. Broadway has had many, many com edies, but the writer is at a loss to re call one that is more sparkling or spontaneous in Its humor than this. The author, Henry Guy Carleton, mnv well ha rjpoud of his work. It is neatly written, abundant in wit, and with much ingenuity in character drawing. Very likely Mr. Carleton, in his pronounced modesty, would claim no further merit for his comedy than the intention of adding to the nnd humor of the nublic. The audi ence allowed this claim and with no exertion whatever remained thorough ly cheerful throughout the evening."
