MRS. SCOTT-SIDDONS.
She Made Her FIRST American Ap-
pearance IN This City.
with Charles R. Thorne Sac Played Romeo
and juliet.

The death OF Mira. scott-Slddons
the distinguished actress and elocu-
zionist at Paris yesterday calls to
mind the time when she first played
IN this city. II was on November 23 and
"a, 1868. Thst was memorable season
at the old Academy OF Music on West
minister strest, the only theatre worth
mentioning In the city at thst time. The
greatest stars OF the dramatic armament
were here during that year. The list In
cluded wyzemsn, Marshall, Mexican,
buchanan. John Il. Owens. Jospeh Proc
tor. Mr.and Mrs. f.. l.. Davenport, Edwin
Booth, two engagements, Adelaide
Ristori, Kate Fisher, Mile. LsmbelIe.
Laura Keene, Maggie Mitchell, Mrs. II.
W. Lander, +. &. Chanfrau, Edwin
Adams. Mrs. Scott-siidons and John
Broughsm, a list of players whose gem
eral excellence has never been surpassed
In this vicinity In any single season.
This was Mrs. Siddon's first appearance
here on the his.ronic stage, and only three
years after she had made her first profes.
sional appearance in England, and the
hrst year she was in America as sne came
to New York in 1868.
Strangely enough the great grand
daughter OF Sarah Siddons generally con-
ceded to be the greatest of all English
speaking actresses, made her first public
appearance in this country in this city.
This is not generally known, out 1t is a
fact nevertheless. Sne gave readings
and some time after che played Juliet
and Rosalind two of Shakespeare's most |
iovable femslss, and she played them |
charmingly. Indeed she was the most
beautiful actress Providence had seen.
As matter of fact her beauty has not
been materially eclipsed by any player,
who ever visited Providence. There are
old theatsr goers living in this city who
remember the beautiful woman who
played so charmingly with Charles f.
rhorne who was the most magnetic and
capable Romeo this country has seen in
nearly two generations, and whose recoI-
lection will thrill with pleasure at the
thought of those two fine specimens of
manly and womanly comoliness in the
greatest love drama of all time.
Another member of that mem ora BILE
cast from the Boston Theater Stock Com
pany was William F. Burroughs, who
was the leading member of the stock
company which played "Fashion," when
he Providence Opera House was opened
20 the pu olic, Dec. 4, 1871.
Mrs. Scott-Siddons was born frT furftH
n 1914, and WAS educated in Germany.
ar first appearance was at NottiE CHAM,
Eng, as Lady Macbeth. Her first Amer
can appearance as an actress was at the
Boston Museum In 1868.
Her last appearance "a an actress In
mis- city was at the Providence Opera
House In 1880.
