She is n very hard working little woman.
Nine years ago she did not understand n
word Of the tongue which she now speaks
without an accent, and to this day she
uses her native Observation-Disclosures

bled consonRnt sound much better than
she does English. Moreover, she devotes
every spare moment which she can find in
her ~days-already pretty well filled with
rehearsals and performances-to studying
French.
She has had ever since she was 10 years
old a very powerful incentive for all this
hard work in the care of her mother. They
live together in a coy little fiat when they
are in New York, and when Miss Burt is
forced by her profession TO travel the
mother is always with her.
on the stage she has the same pleasant
voice and charming manner which brings
applause when the footlights are blazing.
and with her big eyes, fresh complexion
and shock of-curly brown hair she always
makes a delightful picture. which is en-

tastefully chosen gowns-a lesson which
so many actresses have failed to learn.
Her stage career has not been a long one.

generation of actors is not what we have
known In the past, belong in the same
class with the folk who in these days OF
steam transportation and electric lights
look with regret on the time Of stage
coaches and candles. The difficulty Is that
any actor TO be tolerated nowadays must
be good, and so the contrast between the
stars" and humble members OF the pro
fession is less noticeable, and both classes
suffer by it. There are hundreds Of young
actresses and actors today whose greatest
laurels are yet TO be won. but who would
have been considered wonders fifty years
ago. Take the three whose portraits &C
company this article, for instance.
Laura Burt is not very big. as far as
stature goes, but she has a big ambition
and has honestly earned a big place in the
hearts of theatregoers. In New York they
feel much more than the ordinary amount
Of admiration for her. and it came about
In this way.
Miss Burt was playing a small soubretts
part at one Of the popular theatres some
time ago, when ii was announced one
Wednesday morning about II o'clock that
the actress who played the leading role
was i'll and would be unable to appear for
the afternoon performance. This was a
very serious dilemma, for, strangely
enough, no one had understudied the part.

went to Miss Burt and asked her II she
could not take it. At first she aid she
could not, for she did not know IL, but as
the theatre would be forced to close unless
she came TO the rescue she promised TO do
the best she could. Between II o'clock and
2 she had learned the first two acts. Then
the curtain rose, and she went on the stage
without knowing a line of the third and
fourth acts.
Fortunately in the third act most of her
business" was done while standing by a
sideboard and a mhntel and sitting at a
table. Copies Of her part we're lying on
each OF the three pieces of furniture, and
she read her lines outright, studying dur
ing the pauses the lines of the fourth act,
which WAS the most difficult of all, and
during which she would have no oppor-
tunity to see her lines.
When the curtain rose on the fourth act
she was pretty badly scared, but she went
on the stage bravely and carried it through
without IA break. and the audience never
had cause to suspect for II moment during
the entire performance that she was not
Zine perfect" in the part, and had not
learned the business" of it in dozens of
careful rehearsals. After that, during the
four or five weeks while she played the part,
she made a verltable hit, and it is not at all
certain that the public was not sorry when
the leading woman recovered from her ill
ness and Miss Burt retired from the part.

and worth of Joseph Jefferson. That hon
est man and able actor who. as the passing
years drift snow upon his head, walks
modestly along, doing good deeds silently,
showing us mimic characters as no one
else can show them, and winning each
day new friends whose lives are better if
they have but seen his kindly face upon
the stage.
A comparatively new acquisition to
America and the Kendall company is Nell
lie Campbell. She Joined the famous En-
glish couple during their engagement in
New York about three months ago, and
America likes her. Whether she likes
America or not is another question. 1t
scared her very badly when she first be
cAme acquainted with it, and made her i'll
a little later, so we must not blame her if
she does not.
She is a thoroughly English looking
young woman, and of course is proud Of it,
just as every American girl should be
proud Of looking like a Yankee. She has
au attractive and expressive. il not a pref
ty, face, and above it there is a mass OF fine
blonde hair that is given TO tumbling down
in a very fetching way. even il she is digni-
fiedly English.
Her stage career covers about nine years,
and has consisted almost entirely of work
with Wilson Barrett, the famous English
actor, and in Violet Melnotte's company.
Miss Campbell is a ~painstaking and
pleasing actress, showing in her work on
the stage that her success has been
achieved through careful training. She is
one Of three sisters, all well known on the
English stage, where her mothers name is
also familiar.
These three young actresses are members
OF an army of talented young women, and
while in these individual cases fortune has
smiled more brightly han usual, perhaps,
such instances OF real ability are more
plentiful in the dramatic profession today
than they ever were before.

DRAMATIC NOTES.

The Old Homestead" Denman Thomp.
sons famous play, has reached the end OF
its phenomenal run in New York. For
nearly four seasons It held the stage at the
Academy of Music. a revival Of Joshua
Whitcomb" follows it.
The resignation Of Rubinstein Ms director
Of the Royal Conservatory of Music at st.
Petersburg is said to be due TO the utter
ances of certain young Russian composers
who consider the great musician "old fash
oned."
During 1880 fourteen theatres were
burned in Europe. Only eight people
were killed and thirty-five injured. In
America three big theatres were burned
aud one wrecked by wind.

two adventures. One of her Journeys was
interrupted by the Johnstown flood, and
was continued on the first train that passed
through that i'll fated city after the great
disaster. In the meantime abe was re
ported as one of its victims. She was also
in Louisville during the cyclone. The
hotel At which she was staying was wreck
ed and ten Of its inmates killed. But for
tunAtely for American theatrical audiences
Miss Burt escaped uninjured.

those two unique and delightful figures in

and William Florence-is another bright
little actress Her name is Viola Allen.
and it Is already well known. AS an act
ress she is careful, intelligent, and
therefore interesting. Her ambitions, and
they are legion, seem likely to be realized.
She is a part of what Georgia Cayvan
speaks of as the new blood, young blood
and well behaved blood which was given
TO the American stage by the Madison
Square stock company. She was a mem
Der of the "Esmeralda" COMPANY for nearly
a year, and stepped from there into the
distinction OF a season with John McCul-
logh. She remained with him until his
death. Honors came to her thick and fast.
Her next Engagement wa with Barrett.
During the following season she 'ledr with
1890 az ElC
Boston museum and with the "Shenan-
dosh" company, and then the beginning of
her life in that happy family which is pre-
sided over by genial Joe" Jefferson, with
Billy" Florence as an assistant father.
For a young actress this is a surprising
record. but perhaps some explanation may
be found in the fact that Miss Aliens tai
emit is hereditary. The family has been
more or less professional for a generation
or two. Leslie Allen, who plays the part
OF Mr.. Pendleton. the bank director. in
Men and Women" De Mile and Belasco's
latest success, is her father, n there are
other talented Aliens on the stage.
Miss Allen Is a little woman, who would
be pretty even without the v~ivaclty which
Ia the main characteristic of her face. She
has an unusually pleasing voice, and can
say good things of her own off the stage
as well rs she can other peoples converse
tional gems when she is before an audience.
When she is neither at her rooms nor at
the theatre it is reasonably safe to assume
that she is voyaging around among the
shops where bric-a-brac is sold, china being
her particular hobby. Her greatest trial,
she says, is the fact that earthly salaries
are not limitless-that she cannot buy
every pretty thing she searches out while
on these expeditions.
1t would be unfair TO Miss Allen to fail
to mention that one of her most frequent
subjects of conversation is the kindness
