METROPOLITAN THrArzR.-T California

METROPOLITAN THEATER-The California
Theater troupe appeared at the Mctropoli-
tan last night in dramatiza,ion of Victor
Hu9os great romance Notre Dame Mic
kee Rankin had the leading part. Quasi
modo, the deiormed bellIinger of NotTe
Dame. The company is Z very strong one.
1t IS weak only IN supernumerary forces.
And yet, greatly lacking as it is III this
direction, and suffering in consequence. as
any troupe must, it is very questionable If
the management would have been justified
IN bringing from San Francisco the neces-
sary trained upernumeTaries Bat these
may be ignored and their absence condoned
IN the presence Of such an array of comoa-
tent people as Mckee Rankin and wife. D.
II. Harkins, Frank Mourdant. George Os-
borne and wife, J. Holland, Mrs. L. VI.
Bates, Mabel Bert and Adele Waters. The
piece presented last night is heavy or ro-
maEdcally tragic enough to satisfy the
most eGacting taste for the melOdrarna To
say that the leading people presented the
characters allotted to them well is not
necessary to state In such admirably bal
anced companies an actor cannot afford to
do otherwise. 1t is seldom that so strong
stock combination appears here, or one
that IS IN every leading department so adj
SiLil'lNI. diltl appreciation Oh the
effort to sustain it here week ought 10
meet with recognition. "Notre Dame" will
be repeated tonight, and tomorrow night
" Wife and Child will be presented. when
Mrs. Mckee Rankin will make her appear
ance. Last evening. Mr.. Rankin and Miss
Bert were complimented by hearty call
before the curtain
