MR. MAEDER—AN EXPLANATION

(To the Editor of the Stab.) Sir,—Lest your readers should think Miss Piena suffered any discourtesy at my hands, as Mr Maeder would ungenerously insinuate, I" -:~. -4 trouble you with a feAv lines in jw r,}\- to his letter. It is quite true that I\l J* _tena was admitted to the theatre on pious occasions " without a purchased t" _cct or an order." but then she Avas not rbcompanied by three friends however small. The names of disengaged professional people are left on the door as a matter of courtesy, but it Avould be a line thing for me if every member of my company had the right of entree for themselves and friends. And, that it may not be supposed that I was too strict in this instance, it must be remem bered that the lady was one of my stock company, her star engagement, for which I paid pretty heavily, had terminated. You hit the nail exactly on the head when you say all trouble Avould have been avoided had M*iss Rena asked Mr Thatcher or myself for an order. Mr Maeder exddently takes some credit for apologising to Mr Enimett for •walking off the stage during the progress of a piece, but I doubt whether his apology condones the offence, and constitutes him and his Avife martyrs to what 1 consider the proper way to conduct my business.—Yours, etc., R. J- DeLias.
