by side they played there, the hre OF
each lighting up the genius OF the ner,
and both beating down criticism ana
compelling storms OF enthusiasm.
Booth played the calm, phllosophlc,
StoicsI patriot with all MS own olgnlty'
charm. and all his own magnetic re-
nose. Barrett the lean and hungry
Cassius with all his own fire, vigor and
magnetism. What language can de-
scribe the perfection of the great
quarrel scene between Brutus and Cas-
SUISSE familiar to every school boy.
! Both actors here shone Respondent,
and both evoked perfect salvos OF ap-
plause. Aside from the two great
| actors the piece was notable on many
accounts; the Roman opulace-though
it might have been doubled without
harm, and contained more than soil
tary female-was admirably managed,
and did some great work in the scenes
of the erations of Brutus and
Marc Antony. There was wealth,
brilliance and elegance of costumlng
after the strict Roman fashion, seldom
if ever before " itn :ssed on our stage. A
strong hit, too, was made by Mr. han-
ford as Marc Antony. The character
is one in which any actor of average
ability cannot fail to gain recall, and
Mr.. Hanferd havingsmore than average
ability gained double recalls of the
heartiest nature. Miss Gale had but
little to do, but of course did that little
we'll, As a brunette, however, she
hardly appears to such advantage as a
blonde.
After last nights performance Booth
and Barrett were driven at once to the
depot, when soon afterwards their own
special train left for Denver-the Union
Pacific handsomely lending them
complimentary engine for the trip, and
sending Mr.. Ingalls, along to escort
them over tie plains. They open III
the capital of Colorado for week, to-
morrow night.
The coming week will be full enough
OF plenitude and variety to suit the
most captious. Tomorrow night Lew
Johnson's Black Baby Boy minstrels
shine forth at the Theatre; Tuesday
and Wednesday nights James o.
Barrows, an actor who is well liked
here, and George C. Staley, come in
their own combination, presenting
dramatizatiol of the famous She-with
Miss Emma Heath as ''She who must
be oheyed." Ba5r1ws enacts the role OF
Holly, the "Baboon."
Thursday night the Confere ice
season will begin at the salt
Lake Theatre, with the Ho ne
Clubs new production OF the Shaugh-
raun. Entirely new scenery, a revolV-
ing prison tower and wake scene, are
among the features OF this play, which
will be cast with Mr.. Wells as the
Shaughraun, Mr.. Spencer as Harvey
Duff, the police spy, and with Mr..
Young, Mr. Taylor, Mr. White, Mr..
mings, Lottie Claridge, Ivy Ciawson
