DRAMATIC FEUILLEroN.
Janauschek-Lady DedIock,

to rise upon one Of the most thoroughly effective
representations ever enjoyed In our city. That

with them, was made real TO all who had read

The Innate and almost unparalleled forces, the
distinctive greatness Of mind and physique which
have won for Janauschek an exalted place among
artists, niche In the world all 10 herself,
were never more perceptble to appreciation than
while, In the gorgeous apparel and proud
estate Of Lady DedlOck, she bore the weary bur
den OF her memories and woes through the
scenes with hauteur undlsAolyed by all their
weight; the unconquered patrican cOntendlng
with lnsldlous enmity, and yet unbent when
broken at last. Underneath the laces and Jewels
a princess might envy Is made sensible the
aching heart OF the. woman, and when the
mother owns her daughter, Janauschek'B power
Is felt by all.
Enough and not excessive expression IA, In her,
one great result Of the penetration Of genius.
When Lady DedlOck moved upon the stage alone
or surrounded by her family the very atmosphere
seemed heavy with the sad mystery with which
