Miss Margaret Mathcr made her first APP
poarance In New York on Tuesday evening
as Juliet at the Union Square in most
beautiful production Of Shakspearc's poetic
drama of "Romeo and Juliet" Mr. j. NJ.
Hill, her manager, gives production of
the play that is histrionically valuable. The
scenes presented are the result of many
months of work. Careful research has been
made and the play is presented correctly
from an artistic standpoint and faithfully
as a reflection of historical scenes in Verona.
The stage pictures are beautiful and as q
study will be found of much
interest. Miss Mather's JdiG is
not great one, but at the same
time, one cannot fail to regard with esteem
the earnestness and sincerity Of purpose
with which she invests the character Her
JUiid is responsive and she succeeds in
creating sympathy for her faithful and
steadfast love for Romeo. Miss Mather was
very pleasing in the balcony scene, and her
acting in the famous potion scene was very
dramatic. From a sameness of vocal cX-
PRESTON her reading is not infrequently
mOnotonous, and her acting admits of more
expansion but the faults that now appear
in her work will, from study and experience,
doubtless be corrected, as she has youth and
perseverance in her favor

Miss Mary Anderson, after her triumphs
abroad, began six weeks engagement on
Monday evening at the Star Theatre. It is
always a pleasant event, the welcoming
home of popular fayorito. Especially in
teresting is the incident Of her return when
we know that her performances have re-
ccived the seal of success from the people
OF foreign country, and furthermore,
when foreign comment has been favorable
also to her Interpretation of q Shakspearean
part that was new to her and which she es-
saycd for the first time before u strange
public. ROSdiiHd was the role she played
in England, at the Shakspearean anniver-
sary at Stratford-on-Avon and she enacted
1t ON Monday night for the first time in this
country. Miss Anderson received a royal
welcome from an audience that was com
posed, in the majority, of people in her own
profession. She is an actress whose meth
DDS appeal to the intellect rather than to
the emotions. Her work Is never magnetic
and 1t is but seldom that there are moments
Of deep outbursts Of passion that carry
the audience for the time being be-
You'd the personality of the actress.
She is seldom subservient to the part she Is
playing aud her own individuality Is always
dominant. If she does not win the admira-
ton Of her auditors ON all occasions, she
never fails at least to gain their respect for
herintelligence. Net6ertheless she is an
interesting, but by no means an ideal Rosa
lind. In doublet and hose she appears to
excellent advantage. Her acting in the
Forest of Arden is graceful and In her
scenes with Orlando she displays at inter
walls more warmth and feeling than she has
shown heretofore. Miss Anderson returns
to America a better actress In many respects
than when she left 1t. Her leading man,
Mr.. Forbes Robertson, invested OHduiO

Mr.. Gladstone is thus referred to in Sir Henry
Taylor's autobiography: Mrs Gladstone, some
time during her husbands tenure of Office as
Prime Minister, spoke to of the power he
possessed of turning from what was arduous and
anxious aud becoming at once intently occupied
with what was neither; and she regarded this as
having something of saving virtue. But she
added that nevertheless, it was a frightful life

intensity with versatility of the few oc-
casons on which happened to meet with Mr.
Gladstone, during his tenure of Office as First
Minister. He asked me what thought of two
or three volumes of poetry recently published.
had never heard of them. and the names of the
authors were unknown to me. They were pre-
sentation copies sent him by obscure poets. who,
if possessed of grain or two of common sense,
could have had but little expectation that their
volumes would be opened by Mr.. Gladstone,
even if they should pass beyond the sitting
hands of his private secretaries He seemed
however, to be prepared to discuss their merits

The Secret of the Troubles.

The unpleasant relations existing between the
Erie and the Chicago & Atlantic roads is still a
subject of comment, and the outcome liz watched
with interest, it really is an effort of President
King, of the Erie, to dethrone President Jewett,
of the Chicago & Atlantic. The sensitive place
with the Erie people is that the Chicago & At
lantic road made arrangements with the Wabash
road to haul their trains out of and into Chicago,
between Laketon and Chicago. This would
seem a trfl;ng affair, and really good thing for
the c. 81 A road, as they simply haul the cars at
SO much per car and have nothing to do with
handling or billing one pound of freight; yet
President King was displeased over the matter,
and has set about, it is stated, the busting of
President Jewett, and then securing the control
of the c. e. A. road. President King, while
there is apparently no grounds for it. has con-
ceived the idea that the c. & A. and Erie would
get this freight, did they not haul the Wabash
cars. 1t now goes to Detroit; then over the
Grand Trunk to Buffalo, where it is divided be-
tween the West Shore and the LackawanEa
roads, to be forwarded to the seaboard. One
thing is quite evident, that is that the squabble
between these two railroad presidents places
General Manager Broughton, of the Chicago &
Atlantic, and L. A. Lewis, manager of the Erie
fast-freight lines, in an undesirable position, as
it is quite difficult to serve two masters.
