American stage, without LABOR. and the
incidental crosses which mark success

favora bic TO the efforts OF his earlier star

to his support. Few prominent actors
have been as earnest in the study OF
their authors as Mr.. Keene. He is re-
tiring, domesticated man, given much to
reading. This habit has given tone 10
his quiet, scholarly life. On his travels
or in his quaint, Colonial, Knickerbock-
er home on Staten Island, ". Y, he is
always feeling out for something novel,
by which his stage productions may more
effectively portray the meanings of his
authors, and OF the times and scenes OF
which they treat.

most entirely with sights, scenes and In
cidents as well as persons In high and
low life in the great American metropo-
lis. With one exception. that of the de-
serted mission and mining district In
California, the scenes are familiar ones In

Bos,onians in Prince Auanias.

klpette
Idalia.................M Miss Jessie Bartlett Davis
The pleasure of the audience, which
occupied every seat at the Providence
Opera House last night was due largely
to the wit aud ability at the command
of ths Bostonians rather than to any
thing particularly bright in the comic
opera "Prince Ananias."
II isn't dull py any means out there are
few spots where the audience is apt to
be in Q mood sympathetic with that OF
the King of Navarro, who has not smiled
for 30 years. But MIR. Henry Clay Barna-
bee, as La Fountsine, manager OF the
players, wins the collar OF the Lord
Chamberlain by writing play which sis
the thing to force a smile from that clam
faced king" according to the "scheme"
OF the opera and he is even more success
full with his audience.
On the whole the m music 10 good, parts
OF 1t delightfully sweet ana tuneful, not
of.the sort, however, that rings in ones
ears on the way home, and the dialogue
10 entertaining. And the sstirical COM
ments on the ways and means OF modern
stage people make hit
With Barn bee are Macdonald, Froth-
ingham and Dale, and they are great
quartet OF fun makers. Macdonald of
course, is more than that, thanks to mis-
voice.
Mr.. Eugene Cowles has the song OF the
evening, and his story OF the outlaw re-
csivsd Q double encore.
Mr.. I. Kelley Cole was unfortunate last
evening, and for an instant there was q
quaver in his singing. The audience was
generous and an encore gave this posses
sor of splendid tenor voice an oppor-
tunnity 10 redeem himself.
Miss Davis was the favorite, and the
picture which she presented In the first
act was more than enough to redeem all
the trivial defects of the performance.
She has delig htful voice and a charm
ing presence.
Miss Nielsen has plenty to do In the
opera aud does Ii we'll.
This afternoon "War Time Wedding"
was finely rendered. This evening "The
Bohemian Grip will attract attention.
