The Columbia.

Madeline Lucette Ryley's first successful
play, "Christopher Jr.." in which John Drew
ana Maud Adams were wont to shine, was the
bill at the Columbia last evening. Worthing
assuming Drew's old part and Blanche Bates
the role made famous by Maud Adams' dainty
and delicious delineation.
The methods of the leading Frawle players
and the original creators of the stellar roles in
"Christopher Jr." are 80 materially different
that comparisons are impossible, and the re-
spectiye PLAYERS must be judged by their indi-
yidual merits To say that Worthing is a less
airy, inconsequent Christopher and that his
love seen es lack that delicious sincerity which
is so characteristic of Drew is not to take one
whit from the praise that is justly due Fraw-
ley's leading man.
Worthing has not sought to follow in Drews
footsteps He has given an independent in
terpretation to the role and his conception OF
one One misses Drew's little puff of forci-
bly, expelled air that raises his mustache like
a Kansas cyclone, but for the Drew ever pres
ent "shake-a-day-day" motion We have
Worthings continual ''see here" and "hold
on" and so may feel recompensed.
AS different as their physique was the act
ing OF Blanche Bates and Maud Adams. Miss
Adams Dora is ethereal Miss Ba tes decidedly
material. Still she was fetching and well de-
served the applause the patrons oil the Coium-
bla ever greet her with.
The rest of the cast was In excellent nands.
Gladys Wallis was a dainty, picturesque Nelly
]. M. Colviile a splendid Christopher Jr.;
Eleanor Moretti fascinating Mrs. Gllbb, and
Harry Corson Clarke an excellent Mr.. Glibb,
the man who never talks.
The management has mounted the play
beautifully, the interior OF the bamboo hut IN
Bonn bay being picturesque in the extreme.
"Chrlstopher Jr.,' Is the bill for the entire
week and deserves to draw crowded houses.

Baldwin Theater.

| Sidney Grundy's mucn-talked-of comedy,
| 1.-THE Late Mr.. Castello" was produced at the
| Baldwin last night by the Lyceum Thea ater
| Stock Company This was the play IN which
Mary Mannering made her first success, and
it certainly presen ted the English actress in a
| more fascinating light than anything in
which she has appeared here
Sadie Costello, relict of the late Mr. CASTILLO,
| is a whimsical, capricious hirt, who is sup
| pos ed to have an irresistible charm over men
which, in the hands OF most actresses, would
require too great a stretch of imagination for
| the audience to realize. The character, such
| as 1t is, fits Miss Marnering like a glove. an
| the greater part OF what success befell the
play was due TO her really Charming work.
| AS play "The Late Mr.. Castello is i'm
| probable and tar-fetched, even for comedy
| bordering on farce Some of the dialogue is
| sparkling, but the action is too long drawn
| out Next TO the really clever characterization
of Miss Mannering the work of Mrs. Charles
Walcot gave an air of proba bllity to play
| that is full of improba bilities. James K.
| Hackett seemed to have realized that the part
was not exactly in his line and had appar-
! emily made up his mind to treat the whole
thing as a huge joke. John Findlay played
| the part of an aged baronet amusingly, albeit
with considerable eXaggeration.
| "The Late Mr.. CASTILLO" was well received,
! and it has been decided TO continue it on
| Wednesday night instead of the bill previously
| announced. The comedy was preceded by
| 'The Wife of Willougbby," romance in one
| act by Theodore Burt Saye and Helen Bogart
| 1t is easy to imagine that the authors penned
this airy trif1e after coming home from per-
| formance of 1.-The Prisoner of Zenda," for
! there are numerous points of rese mblance-
such as a costume duel scene by candle-light
| and sacred music without for the finale.
Willoughby, the husband of the heroine, is q
] gentleman past middle age, who, discovering
| that his wife loves another, considerably has
| himself killed in duel in order to make her
| a widow, free 10 wed his rival. Edward Nor
gan played Willoughby on lines which sug-
| gested fervid admiration for the manner
| isms of Sir Henry Irving. Frank R. Mills, as
| tire into corners to hide the little emotion he
! did express. Maude Odell, the heroine,
made love much more fervidly than her lover,
and wicked as the husbands meddling friend,
who was challenged by the devoted Will

Big PUGS ON A SCREEN
Veriscope Views Show How
Fitzsimmons Whipped
Corbett.
Members of the Press We're Treated
to a Good Exhibition at Peoples
Palace Theater.

The representatives of the press and
many other people who represented other
walks in life witnessed with much interest
last evening at PEOPLES Palace Theater
the veriscope pictures of the Corbett and
Fitzsimmon. fight at Carson.
Announcer Wheelock did not score a
success by any means. His voice would
not reach across the ring and his pun nctu-
alton between sentences was altogether
too long.
The pictures were first class. the only
drawback being the blur cast on them by
the electric current, which is rather Sc
we're test on the eyes.
The first scene-that is when the con-
testants entered the ring-is exceedingly
life-like and many OF those who witnessed
the battle royal will at once recognize on e
or two particularly striking features Of
the memora BILE meeting OF the giadiators.
The second feature that will never be
forgotten by those who gathered around
The ring is the refusal of Fitzsim mons to
shake hands with his opponent, who walks
back briskiy to his corner and waits the
signal for the start.
Among the spectators who loom up
very prominently il the pictures are L..
Houseman, J oe Corbett, Billy Muldoon,
The smoke from Houseman's cigar can
be plainly seen during Intern ission be-
tween some of the rounds.
The pictures also prove beyond Ques-
ton that Fitzsim mons was the aggressor
from start to finish, and that he was
taking only a short breathing spell when
he went down in the sixth round.
They also show that Corbett in
variablv cIinched after landing right or
left to save return.
1t will also be noticed that Corbett s
blows were swift, and that his body did
not go with them, which is an evidence
that the MANY smashes which the Cor
nishman received, although showing a
bloody face, were not very Furnishing.
But the unges that FitZsim mons made at
his opponent are shown very distinctly,
especially in the latter rounds of the fight,
and close observer will note that they
carry weight and power.
The finish blow, of which so much has
been said and written, is not shown clearly
in the picture, but it will be noticed that
Fitzsmmons lands two blows, viz: a
short arm right and left on Corbett's jaw,
from the effects of which Corpett drops
toward FitZsimmons, ana as he almost
reaches him the Cornishman ia bs him q
right-although some said left-in the
stomach, and then Corbett drops to the
floor whipped man.
The veriscope elso shows the blow that
"Fitz" struck at Corbett as the last-named
contestant was on one of his knees, but
his glove did not reach the intended
mark. The wind-up is very good and
shows in detail the excited sports who
plunged into the ring as Corbett dashed
from his corner to have a mix-up with his
successful opponent. There certainly can
be no doubt as to the genuineness of the
pictures.
