Beyond those misty mountains there

Modjeska uttered these words at English's
last night the heart of every nearer melted

She has that strange gift which influences
one before a word is spoken-the gift Of
personality; she has all that can add
to this. From France-from France"-the
music and pathos of those words from Mod
jeska's lips are worth years of ordinary
acting. 1t takes much to move an Indian
apolis audience to tears-yet one was so
moved last night when Mary Stuart said
'I am done with earth" and turned her
footsteps toward the scaffold and the block.
Modjeska seemed less vigorous, perhaps,
than in prior years-her voice lacked
volume at times, but not power. If pos
sible its effectiveness is increased. Her
presence is the same matchless presence
that so long has ruled the stage. In the
park scene her joyous airiness seemed like
nothing so much as the bird to which she
hkens her own heart. And the scene with
Elizabeth just after is overwhelming in
majesty and power. Mr.. Haworths Morti-
mer was manly, forcible, impassioned, full
of intelligence and perspective. His death
by his own hand is the hest thing of the
kind seen on our stage in many a day.
The weak. handsome. Intriguing Leicester

Malone'S Burleigh was a fair piece of
work. The Elizabeth of Miss Proctor was
adequately done. When she signed the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Charles Cogh-
Ian scored pronounced success with his
new play, 1.-THE Royal Box which he pre-
scented TO a distinguished audience at the
Columbia Theater tonight The play is
founded on Alexander Dumas drama,
"Kean, or Disorder in Genius" Mr.. Cogh-
Ian assumes the role Of the great tragedian
me action of the play deals with a grand
dame of the court, who, while enamored by
the actors stage characterization, repulses
his love as man. In his wild passion he
develops. an inordinate jealousy of men
with real stars on their breasts men of real
honor, real fame and real power" This
Jealousy leads TO the highly dramatic and
novel situation in the fourth act, when the
actor, from the stage, publicly denounces
the Prince of Wales, who is an occupant of
the royal boX-a fact from which the play
gets its title. The play was very we'll re-
ceaved: There were several curtain calls,
and Mr.. Coghlan responded felicitiously.
The cast is strong including E. l.. Rat
cliffe, Mrs. Louise Thorndyke Boucicault
and Miss Gertrude Coghlan, the daughter
OF the star, who made her debut tonight.

BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 22.-The entire
contents or the fve-story building Nos. 81
and S19 North Howard street occupied by
William H. Scott, popularity known as
Great Scott" as a furniture store, were
to-day destroyed by fire. in which one
woman, Mrs. Susan E. Maxon. of 1886 Will

the building. occupied by Mr.. Scott. which
is owned by Michael F. Mccormick, was
also completely demolished, although the
four walls remain standing. The total dam
age to that and adjoining property is esti-
mated at about $135, 900. The two adjoining
buildings, occupied respectively by the
Uriah Pollack Furniture Company on the
south side, and by Potthast Bros, dealers
in antique furniture, on the north side, were
considerably injured by fire and water. The
former suffers the greater loss. In the

building three small houses, occupied by
colored people, were damaged to the extent
OF about $500, sparks having fired the roofs.
The origin Of the fire is not known. 1t

the fire was communicated to every floor

Parlx-"A Hot old Time"

From the time Johnny Ray steps on the
stage in "a Hot Old Time" now at the
Park Theater, until the time the curtain
goes down on the last act there is little else
than laughter. 1t is safe to say that never
before has there been as hilarious a per-
Torrance at the Park as that seen yester-
day. The theater was simply unable to ac-
commodate the crowds. and hundreds stood
UP at both performances, many being
turned away last night. The Rays certainly
have winner in "a Hot Old Time" Edgar
Selden's farce comedy. They have very
sensibly given it good cast and mounted
ii handsomely, so they are by no means
the whole show, although good big part or
1t. Johnny Ray as Larry Mooney, or Moon
eys EXPRESS has a part that is intensely
funny, and his attitudes and grtmaceS keep
the audience in a constant state or merri-
ment. The piece is sort of dromio al
fair, Frank Labor, as Jack Treadwell, max
ing up an imitation of Mooney, the re-
sembance between the two being SO great
that it is almost impossible to distinguish
them. The scene between Mooney and Mrs
Blazer Emma Ray), in which the former
is yanSed about the stage and thrown in a
heap by the muscular and very angry wom-
an was greeted with shouts of mirth. That
scene is somewhat familiar here, being part
of an old sketch in which Johnny Ray and
his wife have appeared in this city IN past
seasons. II is as comical as ever. Bernard
Dyilyn has a good part in "Alkali Ike,
from the woolfy West, and introduces sew
eral descriptive, songs. His voice is as good
as Of yore and he has hard work getting
the audience to let him off, his encores yes
terday being numerous. The Washburn
Sisters introduce some new songs and Josie
Claflin has a pretty toe dance. Other spe-
cialties are given by the Rays and the rest
of the company. "A Hot Old Time" is all
that was promised The engagement closes
with tomorrow nights performance. Open
ing with a, Thanksgiving matinee. 'McSor-
ley's Twins" comes for three days.
