GORE OF THE IRISH DIFFICULTY. ,
THE CATHOLIC CLERGY.
AMUsENrENTS.

The public is fond of supposing that the
LIE OF an actor is all roses and sunshine,
and few there are who can realize that be-
hind the comedians smile is sometimes an
aching heart; and often real tragedy give.
point TO rollicking mirth. The play of
Yoriek's Lore gives emphasis to the fact that
actors are men, that love is the Inheritance
of the player, be be never go apt a simula-
tor, that the suBniest heart may be clouded
with despair, and that the actor often has
his cue of passion from bitter experience.
Yorick's Lore is located IN the
dian of the Globe Theater, married to
"Mistress Alice" leading lady, his junior.
His foster son, Edmund" and "Alice" fall
in love with each other. Walton" leading
actor, professionally jealous OF "Yorick,"
discovers the passion and acquaints
"Yorick" with it. The actors al appear in
play in which an u1faithful wife and a
treacherous ward are the chief characters,
and "Yorick, the husband, in burst OF pas
sion, really Kills Edmund" who is PERSONAL
ing the ward, and then kills himself. There
is fine vent for tragic passion in such
a play, and most fltingly does Mr..
Barrett portray it. The play is finely writ
ten, and is lacking in none of the require
ments of tragedy. The anger of a severe
and stern man, no matter how great it may
be, is after all but natural; but the passion
oil the good-natured Jester, the lnimltaole
humorist, is terrible beyond measure. To
zee the laughing lips forget The wit and curl
with contempt and hatred, and culver with
despair, is as horrible as the woman's laugh
usurPing the place of woman's tears.
Mr. Barrett's "Yorick'' is animated with
the requisite fire and pathos, and he
has lent it that historic favor so delicious to
the palate of the thinking man of to-day.
He has shrouded the fine, frank nature of the
comedian with the agony of a deadly love.
The result is masterpiece OF histrionic art.
Mr.. Louis James was superb master
Walton" Miss Marie Wainwright acted
with fine intelligence and delicacy as "Mis-
tress Alice" All of the supporting actors
were above par, and gave proof that Mr..
Barrett has by all odds the best tragic COM
pany on the road. Tonight double bill
