Although it is quite usual for our Colonials to give a hearty reception to great artistes from the Mother Country, it is seldom, if ever, that an actress has created so profound an impression upon South Africa as Miss Ada Reeve, who has been touring there since December last.  Commencing with Bloemfontein, her tour through the country has been one of veritable triumphs.  At Johannesburg, at Pretoria, at Pietermaritzburg, at every town in which she has performed, she has electrified her sudiences into unparalleled enthusiasm.  Theatres have been packed, standing room even being paid for cheerfully at exorbitant rates, and her appearance has always beeen the signal for a display of unprecedented emotion.  Again and again she has been recalled, to be bombarded with a riot of floral tributes and kindly messages.  At Johannesburg, Miss Reeve was cheered almost to her home by crowds lining the footpaths.  A commedienne of inimitable charm, miss Ada Reeve has established herselffirmly in the affections of South Africa, and when, as she intends, she pays another visit to our youngest Colony, there is no doubt as to the manner in which she will be greeted.

Condition is Very Good.
