THE LION HEARTED. "
Downing ut tho Theatre To-Night-The
"COIonel" for Two Nights.

Robert Downing, the favorite American
tragedian, will appear at the new Rich
mond Theatre this evening in "Richard
the Lion-Hearted," a romantic drama by
a. ID. Hall, Esq, founded on the story
Of Richard l.. King OF England, Occur
de Lion.' as he was known TO his con-
temporaries, the Black Prince Of Sir Wal
ter SCOTS "Ivanhoe." This play was
first produced in Chicago in December,
and leaped into an immediate and inn
mense popularity. 1t is full OF powerful
situations, the interest beginning in the
first act. when the motive FOR the con-
spiracy OF Hugh Mowbray Earl of Nor
folk, is disclosed In the act Of the king
In compelling him to marry a peasant
girl whom he has wronged. The second
act shows the meeting between Beren-
garia, Princess of Navarro, and the King,
in the hut of Friar Tuck, both being in
disguise. Richards bravery in saving the
Princess and her maid from some out
laws who had attacked them has its natu-
raj result in each conceiving a violent
passion for the other. In the third act
they renew their protestations of love,
and this time in their proper persons
enter solemn engagement OF marriage.
The act closes with a striking tableau in
which. at the suggestion of Berengaria,
the King pardons all the political pri-
soners, Mowbray's captured followers,
and exacts from each an oath to follow
him into the Holy Land to deliver the
tomb Of the Saviour from the pagans.
The last act shows Richard in prison.
He is released by bereugaria, who seeks
him out in the disguise of boy and places
his sword In his hand. A combat with
Mowbray. in which Richard Stays the
traitor, closes the drama. The faithful
DrtpcacG 10 tbrona tfr
ing has given to this great play a powerful
cast. handsome special scenery and splen-
did costuming. His own work in the part
of Richard is the best he has ever done,
and he has made In IL the hit Of his pro-
fessional career. Those who have seen
him in 1.-The Gladiator and "Virginius"
know how much this means.

tunity TO express his views as to the cost
