erosion CLARKE, OCTOBER ODD, 23D, AND
24rH.
It WAS only last spring That Mr. Crcs-
ton Clarke, young actor who had APP
pesred in some OF the comedies which
the fine genius Of his father, Mr. j.
Sleeper Clarke, had made popular du-
ring the season, made his dCbVt III the
character Of Hamlet. The effort was at
least an ambitious one for so youthful q
man. When be first get foot on the stage
it was quickly recognized that he had
every physical requisite for the proper
portrayal Of the character, and that BE
lacked no intellectual ones that time
would not give him in their iulncss. His
presentation of Hamlet is throughout
thoughtful, picturesque, graceful, and
generally It il brilliant and Iorcibe. Nr.
Clnrke's rendition Of Bertuccio IN the
Fools Revenge reveals the presence on
the stage OF a genius who, ut the
very beginning OF his career. gives
ample evidence that he will IN a
brief while take rank with the
greatest OF cur actors. The part Is a
favorite one Of Mr. Booths, and 1t il
one IN It's many aud various changes Of
