Ethel Chase Sprague's Success.

1t is pleasant to note that Ethel Chase
Sprague has earned success in her new
venture. There is some reputation and
considerable money to be found in Proc
tors Theatre. New York. and Miss
Sprague needs both at present. she has
han the i'll fortune that frequently,
although still inexplicably. follows young
players of talent. Miss Sprague studied
her profession under the best teachers OF
Paris. and there is an admirable quality
of French technique in all Ter efforts. She
did remarkable character work in the
Mansfield company. which should haAs
but unfortunately did not establish her
reputation in the thextre. An observer of
stage matters ia often astonishcd at the
quick progress Of unworthy players into
an applause that DELAYS long before reach
ing actors of intelligence and skill Pos
sibly Ethel Chase Sprague's aim was too
high for n beginner, because she has now
won in continuous performances that suo-
cess which was denied to her with MIR.

to write for the stage, rs well as TO per-
form on 1t, and, like enough, she will de-

than that in which she now apI ears On
account Of the rcverses that have over
taken the family tn which she belongs her
friends would wish to see this young girl
winning back by talent the fortune of
which fate has robbed her. But beyond
any sentiment Of sympathy, Ethel Chase
Sprague deserves approval for her dra-
matte skill and the indomitabe courage
with which shs has faced disasters that
must have overthrowna less heroic spirit.
