Last evening Mr.. Charles Pope gave his
fourth representation In Piper's New

Macbeth. The character Is . favorite
With nearly all tragedians. or actor who
sspire 70 DO tragedians, and Is familiar 70
every play-soer but nearly every version
difieu essentially from those Of every
other representation. Mr.. Pope's concep-
ton Of the character Ia o Of the finest.

the temptation comes 70 him, first In SUI
p~crnAturai form. and then In that shape
which few men ever resist, the prompt
ings and impassioned ~pleadings Of . we'll

and from that moment damnation seizes
him. His life becomes Q perfect hell on
earth. pursued by . terrible and pitiless
n morse, the fires Of which arc forever fed
by the haunting memory Of the crime.
This 10 tho picture which Shakespeare in
tends 10 draw. and this is the picture
which Mr.. Popo faithfully reproduccs In
his acting OF tho character. In the per-
sonation he introduces some new business,
which serves admirably TO impress tho au.

encounter with Banquo's ghost. he
