Says the Sacramento, Cal., RecordUnión.- She, drew a large audience last night. It was presented much better than we believed they would be able to do in a brief engagement. There was a great deal of new scenery shown . The piece is the strangest and wildesi freak of a brilliant and undirectec imagination. At times one can fancy that the story is allegorical and ïntended to reveal deep purpose, and that it hints of a weird philosophy of life that is bewildering in suggestion; a' others, the auditor is led to conclude that there is no purpose in the tale beyoud the weaving of marvels of wild fancies into a mysterious and not un derstandable plot. We confess to hav ing abandoned the reading of the nove She before two-thirds through its pages and without any regrets. The play is more satisfactory than the book. lts spectacular effects are great aids, and the realization of the loves of the beautiful women,"Ustane' and "She," gives it poetic charms anc graces. The WebsterBrady Company undertook a heavy task in handling the piece. Their success was acknowledged last night by much applause, and en cores for many of the spectacular ef fects and melo-dramatic tableaux with which the play bnstles on all sides. -It will be played" again to-night and for the last time at the Saturday matinee
