What the New York, Herald has to say about this play. ; " "St. Elmo," a good old fash ioned drama was enacted last nighs at the Academy of Music. The play was adapted by William Holcomb from Augusta Jane Ev ans Wilson's novel of the same name.There was a certain charm about the piece because it re minded one of the class of play's that used to be seen years ago'. I he play toliows tne book in so far the limits of dramatization will permit. It is a play such as one has not seen in New York for a long time7 worth going to see." The eomnanv that will be seen here on Monday night is one of much merit and especially, selec ted for the different parts. To Ihoic InThc Court Calendar. Spring term 1912, Washington Countp.
