But as an atmospheric artist Thackery is quite otherwise, and it was this quality of atmosphere one expected to encounter in Mr. Langdon Mitchell's adaptation of "Pendennis."

This number brought much applause and no little interest. But that is the pity of the whole thing. Why could not more musical features have been introduced? If the authors objected to turning their farce into a musical comedy their objections stand in the way of their gaining more laurels. Although mixing categories is an awful danger among dramatists, a hybrid...
