SalyinI, an actor who has won fame
more rapidly and 81 an earlier age than
- any enc in the memory OF the Oldest
patron OF the drama. Given Dumas
. romance with Salvini as its hero and
=" the result should gladden. the box office
- heart. Dumas has surrounded bis hero
with the glamour Of seventeenth CEN
fury romance. He was a registering
!, descendant of an impoverished but val
!. orous house, daring, dashing, skilled in
y all manner OF solderlY accomplish
ments, honorable as rench honor goes,
and intrepid like the breath OF the
times, with wit and blade audaciously
alert. His good sword Bob" his
friend, stood him firm 10 all extremity,
and was more faithful 20 him than all
besides. Oue does not realize the beau
u OF THE Three Guardsmen" until IL
Is seen in action. For instance, the
character OF Anne OF Austria does not
fix itself In memory by reading as by
witnessing the living Interpretation.
Doubtless this is due TO the splendid
work and magnificent presence OF the
actress who plays the part. Drama

motive and result.
