Persecution of the jews.

Il is proposed By parties competent to the
work to produce at the Orpheum during the
present month a drama, the motive IF which
is the cruel barassment Of the Jews in Dor-
lions of Europe. not only in the dominions
of he Gar Of Russia but also in the IOnian
Islands, where On Corfu the antagonism to
tie Semitic race seems TO be even more
cruel than that shown by the MuscOyite. 1t
is a question whether this movement against
an inoffensiye people be political or a re-
ligiOus one. II the latter the Greek Church
has certainly adopted a system Of pTOselyt-
ing UneXampled IN its terrorism. IL would
seem that anna presenting in mimic form
tie startling incidents We find detailed in the
columns Of our newspapers every morning
would be appropriate and interesting just
now. The production, we are Informed,
will be an expensive one, and the cast en-
braces such names as Lawrence Hanley
George w. Bryant, Harold Russell, Darrell
VIntOn, Theodore Roberts, Scott Cooper,
lingo TyrreH, ID Tothy R0ssmOre and Jean
Clara Walters, together with upward Of one
hundred supernumeraries and ch0Tisters.

A Visit From the " Divine William"
The Bates testimonial al the Alcazar on
Thursday afternoon last afforded an OpDor
tunity for the ghost Of Shakespeare TO visit
that theater a second time. Twice only,
we believe, has the shade Of the divine Will
lam been allowed within its walls, and both
times it came with Julius Cesar"-once
to allow Mr.. Grismer TO show the public
how little he knew about legitimate acting.
when he undertook Brutus, and this time
to afford cause for mild astonishment that a
hitherto neglected member Of the company,
Mr.. David Davies, could read Shakes rearean
text so well. and by doing So as Trebonus,
in the quarrel scene" actually hold up
the scene and prevent il being fiascn, as
the Grismer company's acting If the whole
plav was in the first instance. Mr.. William
Beach knew nothing Of Brutus at this matt
nee and Mr.. Hanley was equally ignorant
Of the requirements Of the cynical Cassius,
or else be had looked too fOndly on 'the
wine when il was red, and when It gave its
color in the cup" Davies regards Shakes
peare con am0ra, it would appear AT least,
his reading of the Irebonius lines showed

Miss Katie Emmett, who produces 'The
Waits OF New York at the Alcazar tO-mOr-
row night, plays boys part in the drama,
from first to last-that of boOtblack. Her
adoption of the male rig on the stage had
queer cause. She was stopping at an East
ern watering place several seasons ago,
when an acquaintance of hers proposed a
wager, the terms of which required Miss
Emmett TO dress as boy and 20 about for
an afternoon and evening. minglng with
the thousands, without detection. 1t was
promptly accepted. and a small party of
friends, witnesses of the wager, accompanied
the pretty young actress and the propOser
of the wager on their rounds Miss En-
nett made such a charming and alto
getheT natural boy that she attracted
good deal of attention, many people
turning TO look alter her and remark
what handsome little fellow" Having
won the bet (the stake u supper for the
party, it was collected, aud ii was during
the discussion of the elaborate spread, Miss
Emmett being still in male attire that some
body asked her why she didn't star as
boy. The idea was warmly commended by
everybody present, and so urgent was the
advice Of friends that Miss Emmett con-
cludtd upon mature deliberatiOn to try it.
Her first season in The Waits of New
OH" was such positive success that her
use Of petticOats and bOnnetS will be con-
fined to private life for considerable time
to come. Ia many of the smaller towns adj
mlrlng matTOnS refuse TO believe Miss En-
NETT girl aud wait at the stage door to see
her, along with the troop of boys who are
always there. Before the Waits OF New
York" IS worn out 1t may be that Miss En-
nett viii be compelled to call herself Tom"
Emmett, or some equally masculine name,
in order to make the public think she

Until the establishment of the Chamber
lain company Shakespeare had been an
actor, gradually rising in the esteem OF MS
fellows. But henceforward he takes BIS
place as one of the chief actors in the princl-.
pal company of London, acting in licensed
theater.
Shakespeare retired from the stage about
1910.
Yet, with all this evidence of Shake
speare as player, it is not recorded that
he played any character in his own plays
neither can / fad any record that he dld
not; but Ger tain it is that he was a member
Of at least one company which enacted

rest assured of a rich treat at the Burtis

Smith Russell. What wonderful fellow
is he to be sure! There is nobody like
him-nobody whose personality is so
pleasing or whose acting is so thoroughly
delightful But it isn't scting, it is SIM
ply Russell. He can't help being funny.
In his nature there is strange comming-
ling of comedy and pathos; it is this m v
,ure which puts it in his power TO carry
his audience with him always, to move
his hearers to laughter or to tears. These
qualities appeal to every heart and we
love him for them. In Peaceful Val>

give scope for his peculiar talents The
plot is of absorbing interest.

From, Rnrper's BaIor.
A great deal has been said Of the charms
Of the old French salons. those delightful
reunions whore the brightest spirits of a
sparkling era met in free and familiar con-
verse, each showing his own best and draw
Ing out the best of the others. The peculiar
grace of the old salon has passed away with
tue days of the OLD regime. Even in France
the salon Of this country is not that of the
last. "Other neople, other ways"
The society which composed the salons Of
the eighteenth century was q brilliant
growth Of peoples AID corn flowers nodding
aud moving in the breeze upol the roof Of
a matched cottage. Beautiful in ITSELF
this growth is but a token Of the age of the
rottiug thatch and that Of the ruined
dwelling beneath it. It needed but the zap
of a childs hammer upon the tottering lin-
| tells, AMI almost in a breath there was moth
ing left but heaps of debris, and here and
there an astonished flower left living aud
wondering ! the mid of destruction.
What were some Of the influences which
fcstered the gay flowers of the old salon?
First Of all was the freedom that comes
from assured position aud social equality.
Bowling 70 the monarch as the one supreme,
anu Ignoring the x eat una Nses below Jlem
with an unconscious selfishness incompre-
hensible to-day, the mel aud women who
composed the salons were on a social plane
that admitted but slight inequalities. Tley
understood each other. If tbert were bicker-
ing, aud jaalousies, they weTe-like the
differences i'll a well disciplined family-kept
beneath the surface.
Every member of a circle was known to
all the others. not superficially, but thor
oughiy; not only each in his owl person,
but each hist rically, that is, in the history
of his ancestors. This sort Of Acquaintance
is essential to the freest exchange Of thought
agc ep gram. No slightest illusion or turn
Of phraseis lost. The brightest sailies Of wit,
the kesnest flashes Of wisdom, are those
which are uttered in a strictly family circle,
where all the memb ers are bright ana culti-
waited, and though often widely differing,
are yet united by an electric touch OF SYM
pa by.
This sympathetic freedom was the ozone
OF the French salon. Its sunshine soft aud
