THE THEATEn
The houses which greeted Frederick b.
Warde were uniformly good, and the fact
that they grew larger every night proved
that Mr. Warde's ability Is recognized In
Helena The supporting company was a
satisfactory one, and with such sterling
actors Rs John Marble, Mr. Weaver. Miss
Belgarde aud Miss BOniface an efficient
representation can always be- relied upon.
Mr.. Warde unquestionably excels In tragic
roles which call for great force and strong
emotion, and he rose 10 the highest level Of
tragic power In "lielphegOr," when he de-
mands the papers Of the pretender KOlla,
and again when he declares himself as
Ielphegor to the astOnlshed duke. II crit
icism he called for, 1t might possibly be
said that Mr.. Warde at times seems dis
posed 10 bewail too much. In a repertory
Ike Mr.. Wardr's, including, as Il does
such trying parts AS Belphegor, Richard,
Virgnius aud Galba, IL would be difficult
to find any actor on the American stage to-
day who could give 50 intelligent render
ing and afford the general public greater
satisfaction than Mr.. Warde-fOr he IL still
comparatively young man-and II he con-
tinnes 70 improve his art and grow In the
estimation of his audiences as he has In the
last five years, he Will be second To none as
delinestOr Of tragic roles before another
five years have elapsed
Mrs. r, ID. Kelsey's concert drew good
house, in which the Encore club was very
well represented. The object Of the con
cert was worthy one, and the programme,
embracing some very excellent music
rendered by such artists as Mrs. Fo0te,
Mrs. Kelsey, Mr.. Sharpe, Mr. Jackson ct
al, could not help proving a musical treat.
