He received a most cordial and enthusiastic reception from the audience on his first appearance, was loudly ap plauded during the performance, and received in conjunction with Miss Fergusson a hearty recall at the end of each act.

Says the China Mail:-"The leading role (Claude Melnôtre) was undertaken by an amateur who has appeared but once on the local stage, and the success of his representation was greater than even his friends anticipated. He knew his part well, spoke his lines with great clearness and the play in a manner which elicited the warm approbation of the audience." Says the Dally Press-"Mr. Smith was warmly received on his first appearance, and throughout the evening he received applause far beyond the merits of his performance. The audience, how-
