The forthcoming appearance of the "Kemper Stock Corapany," which occurs at the Grand opera house, Saturday matinee and night, March 2d, promises to be a pleasurable event to the lovers of high class acting. This splendid organization, which has been selected under the personal supervisión of Mr. A. M. Palmer, will present Bronson Howard's rnasterpiece, "Young Mrs. Winthrop," on the same scale of excellence that characterized its original presentation. The lasting success of "Young Mrs. Winthrop" as a play is due to its perfect naturalness. Mr. Howard has drawn his characters from the present day, yet the distinctions are so fine that they can only be rendered by artists of exceptional ability. For a long time the management of the "Kemper Stock Company" have waited to perfect their orgaaization, slowly and carefully engaging the members until finally their patience has been rewarded - the company completed and its artistic excellence recognized and financially appreciated wherever they have appeared. In the rendition of "Young Mrs. Winthrop" nothing is slighted either in acting or costuming. The auditor's intelligence is not assaulted by incompetency, or bad dressing. The detail of the play is given thoroughly, intensity of acting is relieved by the refinement of cornedy, and by their artistic eff'irts the performance becomes a rare combination of coraedy and pathos.
