The friends of Misa Imily Gavin, in thlt and Laka counties will be glad to learn that she It meeting with un­ bounded success wherever she appears. She appeared in St. Louis a few eve­ nings since in the character of Lady Macbeth, with the celebrated actor McCullough as Macbeth, and this is what the St. Louis Uepublican says of her: "Miss Emily Gavin was the Lady Macbejth of the occasion. This lady still improved the impression prSductfd by her Queen Katherine of the Drevious evening and made friends with the audience at once, by her earnest and effective work in the letter scene, ller treatment of the role Is all womanly, attuned froth the key-note ot true wifely affection for Macbeth, and ambi­ tion for his advancement. Knowing hi« tender and pliabie nature, she does not storm him to her purpose in the masculine mood but adopts the im­ pulsive, pleading, afiectiouate method of women with her husband, while she is at tfie same time the cruel, iullexibie stuff of which she is made. Miss Gavin's Lady Ma betti shows a clear aud intelli­ gent insight in art and capacity to attain high results. In the murder scene she more than satisfied the gen- eml expectations of a second appear­ ance, and showed drttuiatic stuff of great promise. The whole scene ex­ hibited good professional work. In the baquet scene she was commanding and queenly, aud in her sleep-walking act her talijvvhi^e tigure was peculiarly efiective. Her pantomime anu move­ ment, and broken utterances were also up to the professional standard. In fact all that Miss Gavin does is stamped with goad seuse, great intelligence aud. a dramatic capacity which coutains the germ of great promise In the heavier roles of the drama."
