Tiie following criticism of the

to appear here on Friday night,! is
frocr the Fort Worth, Tex.. .-Daily
Register : The largeat house of the
season greeted Alba Hey wood and
his excellent company at the Opera
House last night in the Y. MM0. A.
Course. Nearlv everv statin the
house was occupied, and the audience
estimated at 1,300 people. From
beginning he had his audience
6 mercy, but it was soon evident
the audience had no mercy on him,
as the encores were so oft repeated
that he was compelled for the third
fourth time to respond. His
roretation of "Pce'a Rtveu" was
novul, his pa'helic work was good,
but perhaps his Siliy Billy" was
the most catcby of his evening's
work. As a character actor he
star da ahead of any that has been
hea-d in this city. Miga Flora
Dre'scher was a favorite with the
audpnee. It is safe to say that no
better violinist has been heard! in
Fort Worth. MiseEliseReimer'a work
as a pianist was exceptionally gobd.
