Maud Hildyard Dramatic Company,

Under the direction of Allan Hamilton, Messrs Meynell and Gitnn have sent to New Zealand their latest powerful attraction— Miss Maud Hildyard and her powerful dramatic company, who will appear m the Opera House, Wellington, next Thursday m "A Warning to Women." Miss Hildyard will appear as Moira Kennion. Picturesque Irish scenery will give

brightness to a story m which the cast will also include Miss Geraldine Quin, Miss Violet Dene, Mb Steff McDonald, Mr Conray Wing- 1 field, Mr Boyd lrwiu, Mr L. Walshe, Mr Tracy Barrow, Mr Rutland Beckett, Mr W. Eovis and others. A great moral lesson is given m "A Warning to Women." m which Miss Hildyard (who is essentially a sympathetic actress with great emotional power) takes the character o£ Moira Reunion, who is addicted to the drink and morphia habit. The scene is laid m Ireland, and when a medical student, Dr. Dread (Mr James Lindsay), places Moira under, his hypnotic influence, the acting is said to be most realistic. Miss Hild--yard id well supported by a splendid company, with beautiful scenery and dresses. The box plan is at Holliday's, and early door day, sale tickets at Abel's, tobacconist.
