Then there is Nella Walker as a gushing art patronessâ€"and a ‘host of young folks in the grand masquerade which ends the play. ~Robert Milton has shown meticuâ€" lous care in direction. He also,. if the writer is not mistaken, directed the present play when it was proâ€" duced on the New York stage. â€" ~â€"*"*The Bargain" is the play youi have been looking for.
