position ought to hold its just relation TO
her genius, for she has earned the right
10 the first place in Importance among
the actresses Of her country and time.
What Bernhardt is TO the French drama,
Clara Morris is to the English; she has
been properly named the American
Rachel" !" Tor none save that great actress
has ever approached her in the ability
TO sway at will the passions and sym
pathy OF the human heart" At the
