AMUSEME NTS.
Mansfieid's Bill for Today.

Richard Mansfield, pursuing his usual "the
ublic-bedamned" policy last night announced
during the performance that today's matinee
performance was off. No reason was given for
this action, which was taken in the face of the
fact that the company was able to go to Tacoma
yesterday afternoon for the express purpose OF
giving a matinee, so that the excuse could not
be made that two performances in day would
overtax the actors powers. Many persons had
bought tickets for the matinee because it is
more convenient for them to go to the theater
in the afternoon than in the evening and others
had done so because they were anxious to see
prince Kari the play advertised. The wishes
OF these people were disregarded by the aban-
donment of the matinee and, though their
tickets will be good for the evening performance,
that fact does not compensate for the inconven-
fence and disappointment they have suffered =
But Mr.. Mansfield was not satisfied with this
disregard for his patrons desires. He has gone
further, and changed the bill Tor the evening
performance. Though he had advertised CDR.
Jekyll and Mr.. HYDE" he announces that the
following will be the bill Third act of "Prince
Z Karl Gncuding the drawiug-rOom entertain
ment), third act OF 'Beau Brummell, third act
OF 10000 Year (AIr. Mansfield as Titttebat
Titmouse), second act of .'Don JUAN" one act of
Nero
Though this is very strong bill, 1t Is not the
one which many persons bought tickets to see.
When person buys tickets for certain even
ing on the strength OF the announcement that
a certain play will be given, he has some rights
which even such brilliant star as Mr.. Mans
field ought to respect. Many OF those who have
bought tickets for this evening did SO expecting
to see "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. HYDE and they had
a right to see it, and not fnd themselves the
victims of Mr.. Mausfeld's caprice.
Nevertheless the new bill is strong one
which has captured New York audience, as
the five characters to be presented by Mr.. Mans
field totally different creations, giving full
scope for the display of his genius and
versatility
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1892-06-04

character in the Beau. character which
should remain a classic to the modern
stage, and should take rank with such
plays as "Clito," Francesca da Rimini"
and those of like mould. The play is
rich in opportunity not only to the most
striking parsonage but to ali in the cast.
As matter of course Mr. Mansfield was
Beau Brummeil. Those who saw him
the night before as the lettering. palsied
Baron Chevrial could hardly fancy that
the same man was the 1.-THE, graceful fop
whose every movement was the personih-
cation of grace. The actors attention to
detail in this role is study of an absorb
ing character. There are three genera
.ions in Mr.. Mansfeld's Beau. First In
happiness and power, an almost utter dis
regard of the future. he was full of such
supreme seIf-conceit that he actually
thought he could cut the Prince and
make the king of the fashion," The was
the period of perfect garments. This next
stage is when he is met in lodgin SIS at CAT
ais-poor but yet preserving the outward
dignity of his prosperous days. The
third and last descent was observed when
the great dandy was reduced to absolute
starvation. In the first stage the actor is
man of exquisite form, upon which hang
the most exquisite garments. Next he APP
pears to wear the same robes, but they are
worn down. In the last scene the same
garments are used, but now they are in
rags. Mansfield pays the same attention
TO the management of his face. Its made
to grow gradually thinner and thinner.
until, in the last act, it looks pinched and
parched and makes the beholder feel
almost like supplying the poor, proud
wretch with food The voice, from being
round and full, gradually becomes thin,
cracked and piping. Brummells death
caused shudder to run through the audi
ence, it was so realistic. The actors whole
impersonation of the character was fin
ished and won for him the warmest praises
of the vast audience.
W. j. Feguson had part in Mortimer
that fitted him admirably. He was
thoroughly seli-contained and by his quiet
yet forceful work efiectually aided Mr..
Mansfield in some ofthe best effects of the
play. Mr.. Harkins' Prince of Wales was
fine piece of acting. He both acted the
grutf part and looked it. His makeup
was excellent. Mr.. Andrews made dis
tinctly interesting Sheridan, and Mr..
Griffith was most acceptable as Vincent,
the city merchant. Miss Beatrice Cam
eron was sweet and winning as Mariana.
She acted the simple yet seif-sacrilicing
girl with tenderness, while her lines were
read with fine effect Miss Measor was
sufficiently cold and revengeful as Mrs. st.
Aubyn, while the rest of the cast was in
all respects well balanced. The costumes
were magnificent
