digitateurs used to carry all their ap-

the entire paraphernalia of a wizards

the magician's art has kept pace with
them. Herrmann's outfit fills one en-

HERMANN NEXT WEEK.
What Is Going On in the The
atrieal WOrld--PerSOnal
Gossip.

The past week has been devoid
of anything noteworthy in the the
atrical line. 1t has witnessed the
first presentation Of a farcical COM
edy. entitled "Lost-Twenty-fo
Hours which proved a failure, and
therefore cannot be considered note
worthy, for failures are not rare. l
understand that Mr.. Hilliard intends
to have the play rewritten. This
is absolutely necessary before any
hattering hopes can be built upon 1T.
AS indicated by the GLOBE in its
former comments upon the play,
there are ideas and elements in it,
which, if clothed in proper dress and
presented in different form, might
produce agreeable and amusing eff
fectS. AS it is, two of the characters
are obtrusiVe, if not superf1uous, the
melodramaiic situations offensive
and much of the dialogue cheap.
Where the foundation of a comedy
or a farce is as f1imsy as this, Moth
ing can atone for it but brilliant,
scintillating wit and the cleverest
ingenuity in devising the surprises
and amusing climaXes. Lost -
Twenty-four Hours is lacking in
both of these qualities. It's sole
merit lies in the introduction of two
or three eccentric character studies,
which, with little more elaboration
and different setting, might prove
highly entertaining. But when they
bestow more care upon their diction,
and avoid the suggestion of coarse
ness now too apparent. F. G. H.

Langtry. But the great interest in
anything relating to Japan would
make Danjero a partial success
even if his histrionic ability did not
tickle the delicate American palate.
While Danjero is called the Henry
Irving of Japan, there are few di-
rect reasons for the sobriquet ex-
lleept the general fact that he occu-
pies the same high position in the
Japanese world of dramatics that
Irving does in the English. Dam
Zero is bowed down to by the stage
world of Toxic, and artisticalIy tow
hers head and shoulders above all
Ibis rivals. {-s
|; Personally ne is little, almost in
significant, man off the boards. He
is short, dumpy and modest, and
much of his wide popularity is due
to his gentleness and kindness of
character. He dresses in European
clothes ordinarily, and, having a lib
eral education, is conversant with
affairs in America and Europe. He
| is a good business man, too,a and,
| in addition to being the leading ac,.

afternoon. Effie Ellsler was the ideal
Hazel when this powerful play first
came before the public. Her perform
ance of the part since could only add
to it's finish, in the sense that what was
original acting now appears second ma
ture. Miss Ellsler receives her princi-
pal support from those capable actors,
Messrs. Frank Weston and Robert
Drouet.

again until p. m. This means an
eight-hour performance, which is
something more than most people
care to attend.
The reason of the great length
of the-play is that the Japanese dra-
ma portrays only big events in the
history of the nation. Some of these
events are SO lengthy that play
runs two, three and four days. OF
course, in a serial drama of this kind
the curtain Invariably falls at some
exciting climax; the curiosity or in
terest of the audience is excited, and
they come the following day to view
the next installment of the drama.
These serial plays are not unlike
the serial stories, novels, ETC., print
ed in periodicals. They are conducted
with considerable realism as far as
the lapse Of time is concerned. For
instance, if Gen. Lees surrender at
AppomattoX were the event to be
portrayed the play would begin with
the arrival of the two great armies
upon the scene; then it would show
the preparations for fight: the sour
rying about of messengers a day or
so later to arrange for a meeting
of the two generals, and would finally
conclude with the surrender scene
All the scenes are faithfully repro
duced, and even if the play does
drag YEARLY at times, it instructs
the people thoroughly in the history
of their country, and gives them a
living interest in it's great leaders.
3 But if the play drags, the audience
is prepared for the wearisome spots,
and they manage to enjoy themselves.
The body of the Japanese theater is
divided into little compartments five
feet square, and separated from one
another by a low fence or partition
about foot high.
{ One of these little boxes costs from
dollar and a quarter to dollar and
a thalf day, and at this moderate
expense husband. wife and several
small children can enjoy days pleas
uring. These family parties fill the
and, with their little contriy-
ances for making tea, manage, with
wen-provided basket, to make com
AOSe$OiS ibiiSi III liiC sOt stHeFddy.
When the drama lags these family
parties chatter with one another at
terrific rate. The noise doesn't inter
fere bit with the actors or the action
of the play. It runs along smoothly.
even when the racket of the converse
ton is so great that all other. sounds
are lost in the hubbub
But as soon as the interest in the
play revives the onlookers are all at
tention.
The japanese, particularly the worn /
en- and children, are sensitive people,
and their emotions are easily stirred. |
They are made. to weep and laugh and
applaud vigorously as occasion de-.
mands.

TIRED OF HAZEL KIRKE.
Effie EIIsler Says 1t Has Lost Its
Charm for Her.


The announcement that Effie Ellis
Ter is to appear at the Grand
opera house this week occasions
the usual query, when will she play
Hazel Kirke?" An evidence that the
old play still has a strong hold on
portion of the theater-going public. 1t
is only in response to this almost uni
versal demand that the old play is still
retained in Miss Ellsler's repertoire.
Constant repetition of the performance
during the several years of it's greatest
success has made it's presentation irk-
some to such a degree that the knowl-
edge that the play is to be given is
sufficient to ruffle to considerable ex-
tent the temper of Sweet >pat tent suf-
fering Hazel" 1t is a fact not gener-
ally known that Miss Ellsler was
obliged to relinquiSh the role just at a
time when it's success was at its great
est height. Her nervous system was
suffering from the strain, and her
sight impaired to such degree by the
constant rain of tears that her physi-
clan declared that unless the part was
given up her eyesight would be per-
manently affected. The original Hazel
relinquished her favorite part to an
other and with her husband, Mr.. Wes-
ton, went abroad, spending the re-
mainder of the season visiting the
great dramatic centers of Europe.
Since that time the character has lost
it's charm for her, and she is now only
seen in it when her admirers express
the wish, and she rarely refuses.
John J. Ellsler, her brother and adj
vance agent, relates an incident that
recently occurred, showing her disin-
clination to play the piece. While in
Buffalo, and during the performance,
he had occasion to see his sister. At
her dressing room her maid said she
was not there; she was not to be found
in the green room, but wandering about
in the darkened part of the stage at
the back, where the furniture and
other accessories not in use are
stored, she was found, or rather STUN
| bled upon, sitting alone in a dark room
where the hum of voices from those on
the. stage could scarcely be heard
When asked why she had selected
such an out-of-the-way place to bestow
herself, her reply was, Dear, I'm get
ting just as far away from the play as
1 possibly can. Ugh! 1 can't bear it,
/ However, public demands are para
! mount, and Effie Ellsler will be seen as
Hazel Kirke during her engagement at
the Grand opera house.

opera house, a reproduction of the en-
tertainment that succeeded in holding
the patronage of the New York and
Boston public for the longest term of
years ever enjoyed by one entertain
ment. 1892 is presented by Rice's Sur
prise Party, an organization that num-
bers sixty skilled and capable artists,
In addition to which they increase the
home orchestra to eighteen members
with their soloists. The stage will be
enriched by special scenery, brilliant
electrical effects and rich and costly
costumes.
1t is plainly stated that 1892 is moth
Ing more than huge farce, built for
laughing purposes only, and captiva-
ting the eye while delighting the ear
1t is said to be bubbling over with broad
humor filed with bright jokes and
puns, constant surprises and grotesque
romminglings of fifteenth and nine
teenth century ideas. A particularly
pleasing feature of this production may
be looked for in the costumes, excel
lence of cast, beauty of it's female
members, originality of it's specialties,
ballets, marches, tableaux, songs and
dances. One animated effect follows
another with such rapidity that it is
difficult for the sightseer to mentally
pass upon the merits of one until it
has given place to another which al
ways seems to eclipse it's predecessor
All the music of the piece is credit
ed with being strikingly original and
tuneful, and great pains are taken that
all the interpolated numbers are new

full view of the audience, and the play
goes merrily on.
Another curious feature is the man,
ner. of the players in entering the stage.
There are no wings and nothing sug-
gestive of behind the scenes When
not on the stage the actors remain in
the rear part of the theater, and when
their turn to go on comes around they
gravely pass through the audience,
ascend a narrow gang plank leading to
the stage, and then go on with their
parts. This method of entrance and
exit creates no comment; the japanese
are accustomed to it.
AN EVELESS STAGE.
Notwithstanding that the fever of
progression has taken hold of Japan,
the new woman era has not yet
| reached that Oriental kingdom. Women
are so rigidly guarded or thought sc
little of that they are given no place
on the stage. All of the great actors
are women impersonators-they are
both actors and actresses as the play
| demands.
! Danjero is famous .impersonator OF
women, and it is his ability in this di-
, rection that has given him great fame.
| Two of the Illustrations show him ir
his most popular roles, one as a woman
| the other as an old man. He is quite
an adept in costuming and facial make
| up, as the pictures show.
The japanese are familiar, to GER
! tain extent, with the ways of the Eng
! disappearing stage. American and
| English actors have toured the larger
| cities of the kingdom, producing Shake
speare's plays, and the best received of
the latter was Julius Caesar" the

a good old rector, in the quiet English
village, and whose only care is the
children intrusted to her as the village
schoolmistress. Later, when scandal,
calumny and unjust suspicion have
made her a victim, she is woman
patient in suffering, self-sacrificing,
yet determined in doing what she con-
SiderS right.
The character gives great scope to
the actress, and Effie Ellsler it is said,
portrays it in a manner to evoke the
warmest praise. The other characters
of the play are reported to be well
drawn.
Doris is announced for each even
