''Rchelieu." II possible, he deepened the
impression which he made on Monda y
night as the Prince of Denmark II was
supposed that Hamlet was his supreme
and unapproaohabie performance, but by
his itnpersonation of the crafty Cardinal he
discloseS new arteries OF genius not sug-
getsed by the earlier performance. AS
Hamlet, he seemed young and small, with
all the attributes OF yoUthfulness As
Richeheu, he transforms himself into u
suavc, dignifled, aged diplomat, IL is not
merely the transformation OF builded
heel, the makeup box, or the costumer
but he gives vital reality to the affected
personality before the audience. Again he
gave evidence of the acting powers which
fayorably introduced him on Monday
night. Naturally, his best moment was the
curse of Rome. 1t was a telling and ef-
