THE ANDREW MACK SEASON.

"THE WAY TO KENMARE."

The only Englishman in the piece is the chief villain, a distant relative of the Earl of Kenmare, whose son and heir had married a poor girl and had been disinherited in consequence. He and his wife died in America, leaving their son to a guardian who defaulted. The orphan, Pan Maguire (Mr Andrew Mack), is left to his own resources and becomes a wealthy miner. It is then that the audience become acquainted with him—on his return to Ireland. Fairley, with his own succession in view, plots to destroy all evidence of the Earl's son.' Dan, in the meantime, has fallen in love with Rose Harden, who Fairley also seeks to make his wife. From these circumstances a stirring and fascinating drama, full of incident, is shown. Incidentally, Mr Mack rendered many songs in his rich, clear voice, the in'ost captivating of which was perhaps "The Rose of Kenmare." His acting all through was capital. A number of other characters were in capable hands. '
