the roles that Mr.. Mansfield has por-
trayed have become indelibly stamped
upon the pages of theatrical history
AS an artist who in character work of
the highest type is unequaled any
where, Mr.. Mansfield will be welcome.
He has won the esteem of the great
dis eliminating public by character ere
atoms that have become the boast and
eXemplar of the American stage. He
has fought for the best ideals and with
that emblem he has won. Mr.. Mans
fields singular power of -efface-
ment in so many diversified characters
and the degree of faithfulness with
which he carries them all have made
for him an enviable position. One need
only refer to his Baron Chevrial, his
Beau Brummel, his Jeylkll and Hdye,
his Shylock, his King Ricard Ill, to
prove the quality of his marvellous YER

almost robbed the story of it's original
comedy purposes by subordinating all
else to the character of Shylock. The
stage settings of this play are said to
be beautiful in design and coloring, the
furnishings complete and handsome,
and the costumes rich, varied and his
torically correct. A particularly at
tractive feature is the incidental music
which is arranged by Arthur Mees.
In the revival of Richard Ill.," Mr..
Mansfield has endeavored, it is said, to
restore to the stage what he conceives
to be the Richard of Shakespeare. Mr..
Mansfield does not eXaggerate the de-
formities of Gloster AS he presents
him Richard is no longer a hump
backed, limping monstrosity both In
body and mind, but a man Of double
nature, capable of wooing as well as
loving, but at the same time Influenced
by all the human passions of hatred,
ambition and envy. He endeavors to
show the deformities of Richards mind
rsther than those of his body. The
pictorial side of Mr.. Mansfeld's pro-
duction of Richard Ill" is in every
way a duplicate of the famous one

In his London letter to the Chicago
Ilmes-Herald, Elwyn A. Barron writes
concerning Ellen Terry:
1T is painful to reflect upon the manv
rumors Which are buzZed about con-
corning the health of Miss Terry: but
one hears upon all sides wise nothings
which, II they had any grave founda-
ton, would prepare the London public
Tor the speedy retirement into private
HE OF TINS Incompatible but no longer
yCutnful actress. The most serious of
these bits of tattle declares that it is
becoming a matter of the utmost diff
cufty for Miss Terry to memorize the
hhes or new part, and that the post
ponement of Mime. Sans Gene" has
been due, not so much to the ill-health
Of any one as to the inability of Miss
Terry to get command of the lines of
the role upon which the success Of the
play must depend Whether or not
this report be well-founded, am not,
OF course, in a position to say; but one
must bear in mind the fact that but
recently Miss Terry in the, to her, new
role of Imogen, gave no indication of
any defect of memory in reading the
eXacting lines Of that delicate part.
On the other hand, they say that
Miss Terry has manuscript bits of her
part in numerous convenient places
about the stage, so that us she moves
from one position to another she can
refresh her memory by glancing at the
speech she is next to deliver. l am
sure, however, that the public would
willingly submit to the Introduction to

ing prompter hooded" in front of

Inc reservation is termed unneces-
sary as the rainfall is 1856 inches a year

sad, tends to keep the tracts practical

between acts, became smitten, and i'll
time they married. The comedians in
tention was the permanent retirement
of the dainty little woman from behind
the footlights. At this time Della Fox,
who was playing the leading feminine
role in Hopper's ''Paniandrums," be-
came i'll, and Hopper looked in vain
for a substitute. He went to Charles
Frohman for advice, and the following
conversation took place:

Well, says Frohman, 1.-The only
