Apropos ofthe Shakespearian presenta-
tons Of the past week, in which the bril-
liant young actress, Miss Julia Marlowe,
so prominently figured before two notable
assembages, the question naturally arises,
which of the many heroines Of the immor-

from the fact thatit is one Of the characters
best understood. In the interview with Miss
Marlowe 10 will be remembered this was
the character for which she expressed
preference. Juliet, however, falls little
below the standard of ideal wOmanhOod,

for the display Of true histriOnic talents.
