Referring more |E especially to the star, and the play, the Wellington Ky.'ning l'»st said : "if actresses like-Miss'Tiuell Hruno I came often to Wellmgion the question of building a large playhouse would have to bo taken into serious consideration. When the curtain rose at c the Opera House on Saturday c¥«n----0 ing for the fourth pcrform.?' rt ce of 'Ooroih'y Vernon' there was not an! .1 empty sea.l in the building, while C' many persons preferred to stand rill iber than forego Iho fAasip'c of see r ing 1b..-play. And if wits well worth standing for. Throughout the four 1, acts of the picturesque drama Miss ~ Brune is. the central figure, but she v is supported by a company of exccl- ,. lent all-round ability, whose efforts e are by no nn-ans (hvarfr-d bv the principal lady.
