"ELIZA COMES TO STAY."
Bright dialogue, subtle satire, and excellent acting make "Eliza Comes To Stay," as played by Joseph .Cunningham's new London Comedy Company at the Grand Opera House, a delightful show. There was another large audience last night, which, clearly showed its appreciation. The story describes the horror of a young bachelor, the Hon. Sandy Verrall, who has a hoydenish girl willed to him. In disgust he makes a,;trip, and returns to find that Eliza has blossomed forth into an attractive young person. A change of name to Dorothy, charming clothes, and attention to her diction have worked: wonders, and the Hon. Sandy marries her. The Eliza and the Dorothy of Miss Zillah Bateman are very fine, and the young actress scores a great success. Mr. Copelin suits the part of the Hon. Sandy Verrall admirably, •while Miss Cavendish does excellent work as Lady Pennybroke. : '
