With every part excellently oust. “The Girl From Out Yondei ' was given the initial performance of the week by Miss Hilly Long and supporting company at the Atlanta last night. The big audience was in thorough sympathy with tHe work of the players, generous in appluuse and laughter. The central characters in the story are the daughter and father, played by MNs Long and Joseph Klrkham, and tli;:! I heir work was most excellent is lust evidenced by the fact that toe big scei < the parting in the third act was met by a silence as breathless as it was profound, and in which the female ele ment of the audience were constantly drying their eyas, more or less surrep titiously. The stor\ of the play briefly Is that an old light house keeper lias reared his daughter from infancy to young womanhood as a rough little sea chap, with ail the characteristics and manners of ihe rough sea folks. When the story opens she has met a young civil en gineer in<| they love each other. The old father believes that twenty years earlier he has murdered the civil en gineer's father in a drunken fit. That his daughter may marry the young man, lie tells her that she is not his daugh ter, but a bit of human flotsam from a wreck. That another killed the en gineer's father is shown in rhe last act, and all comes oul right. Without exception, every part was well played, ami besides those men tioned above. Ralph Marthy as Joe> handled a difficult character study well, and Miss Kathryn Sheldon and A1 War ren presented some effective and infec tious comedy. In ihe part of Cousin Simonson Miss Sheldon was particular ly good, for the character is one which could he so easily overdrawn. Except Wednesday evening. “The Girl from Out Yonder" will he played all week every evening amt at Wednesday and Saturday matinees. SPLENDID BILL AT FORSYTH.

Atlanta always is partial to a (jus Ed wards' production, more than likely lie- cause they always are good. The Kid Kabaret which heads this week’s hill at the Forsyth is no exception.

George Jessell, the funny little Yid dish man; Betty Washington and Ruthie Francis. Each of them scores the usual hit.
