AMUsEMENTs.

Madame Janauschek is one of the finest
living examples of lofty school of dra-
matte tragic art of which so little is seen
nowadays. The attendance at the Metro
politan last night was fair, and as Meg
Merrillies the appreciative audience found
Madame Janauschek much as play-goers
have known her in the past. 1t is at once
one of the most difficult and subtitle of
characters to present. That Janauschek
interpreted it with the tragic intensity and
imposing expressiveness of a finished
artist, a mistress of dramatic power, is not
even to be questioned. The part calls for
the presentation of picture of old age
rallying all itspowers for the consumnation
of lifelong purpose that is comprehen-
sible only under realization of the tenacity
and undying devotion-that Madame Jam
auschek's art made so vivid-with which,
under aristocratic forms of society, a SUBJ
ordinate class attaches itself to the
fortunes of old families. Henry Bert
man, as personated by Mr.. Stuart,
while otherwise well enough, de-
served the crutch of old Meg over his
shoulders for total absence of feeling when
the old nurse, to whom he owed his life
and the restoration of his fortunes, with
her dying breath called to him from the
deptnS OF affectl0n and devotion. Mr..
Chaplin, the leading man-not at all a
comedian-was not well cast in the part of
Dandy Dinmont. but still demonstrated
how competent ACTOR can fulfill an ILL
appointed task. The play is not one of
cheerful character, and is trying to even
the best of support. Aside from
Chaplin, Crawford and Roberts and
the very satisfactory Dominic Sampson
OF Mr.. Power, the support was not equal to
that the great merit of Nine. Janauschek
deserved. Tonight it will have better op-
portunity, however, all around, in Mac
beth, to prove its quality. With Chaplin
as Macbeth, Stuart as Macduff, Crawford as
Banquo, Roberts as Rose and Power as
Duncan, there is strength sufficient to give
Nine. Janauschek's Lady Macbeth adequate
support, and to insure a finished perform
ance. The orchestra, under the leadership
OF its new director, George Franks, last
evening rendered a good programme of
seven numbers, with good taste.
