NELSON'S views OF HER MTGS0Y
AND HER MARGUERITE.

tFrom Interview In Chicago Timcs.J
Nilsson.-The critics do not seem to under
stand the individuality of an artistic. Each one
wants me to play his Mignon, his Marguerite,
and does not realize that each artistic, unless
she be brainless imitator, has her study and
her ideal Of these. My caressing the gypsy
children has been censured as frivolous in Mig
non. Well, am only gypsy then, love does
not transform me for some time after. At that
moment am striving to realize that am free,
and the truth is SO dazzling that am be-
wildered, and do just the simplest and most
joyous, most fantastic actions that my tumul-
tuous impulses suggest. The Times critic
quoted Carlyle at me, and said do not play
GOethe's Mignon. Well, I have read every
page of "Wilhem Meister." know Goethe's
Mignon If years Of study can teach it to me. I
know Ambrose Thomas Mignon; If he is capa-
bic of impartng his ideal in music or in confer.
ence. have studied Goethe; have practiced
and performed directly under Ambrose Thomas'
eyes, and thus after painstaking that nobody
knows anything about, I have created the char
setter Of Mignon in music. dcnot play Lucca's
Mfgn0n; certainly do not; that would be
playing Lucca; but play Mignon.
R.-f remember rightly, one of the other
critics minated that you were selfconscious
0ur1ng the nrSt act.
Nj assure you was not. never once
thought of Nilsson. Now in Faust" that charge
may be true. When Valentine got down on the
floor, instead of falling on it, forgot that I
was the poor, miserable Marguerite, and I
laughed because I could not help It. Nobody
could help It. Now, concerning my Marguer-
he, about which 60 much has been said, I claim
that It Is the highest impcrsonation which I
have ever made. This claim has been tested
again and again before the most critical audi
eDces of the oldest cities of Europe, and am
perfectly justified in making it. There arc
vulgar impersonations on the stage which
assumes that Marguerite has fallen before she
comes on the stage. This Is not the true Mar
guerite. She Is pure and simple-minded but
her simplicity Is that OF innocence, not of stu
pidity, much less of vulgarity, least of all, of
sin. I do not slap Faust's face, nor push him
away, nor let him play with me. No modest,
timid girl would do any Of these things. A
grisette or gretchen might, but Marguerite
would not. am reproached with coldness in
Faust's love-making. Very well every good
woman who has ever been wooed knows that
cent, guileless girl to play with such . sutton.
in his advances, as If she were no better than
hel Alter Marguerite falls in love with Faust
she shows It but here again am called cold.
Well, think know the difference between
love-making and vulgar love-making. I shall
never be vulgar on the stage. That is neither
art nor morals. Do you think that after re-
ceiving the congratulations of all Europe on my
Marguerite IL Is not q little piquante to have .
Chicago critic assure me he would not like to
seemc In It q second time-in fact, that he
would like to inform me as politely Us possible
that 1t is not gooda
