when buying gallon of whiskey how many

work has scholarly flavor; it smells
Of the midnight oil.
His analysis is so clear, SO accurate,
Sd penetrating that il is almost dis

warmth, the magnetism which is the
chief charm Of strongly temperamental
PLAYERS. You never for a moment
feel that the mans whole self is
speaking to you across the fOOtlights,
you hear and see only a cleverly

is to your intelligence.
He appeared here this year in '.Da-
vid Garrick." 1t is his first season in
the part, l believe. 1t is as thorough
ly admirable as his other impersona-
tiOns, and, like them, just little

days out at the Carnegie library sur

and times Of Garrick. used to drop
in OF an afternoon just to see that
quiet, studious gentleman there; it
rather renewed ones faith in the
seriousness of the drama.
To me tie most remarkable thing
about his 'Garrick" is the way in
which he reproduces the atmosphere
OF the time. He plays the historical
'Garrick." The note of modern in
tensity is never sounded. This is a
''Garrick' Of other times and other
manners, player of the Drury Lane
theatre; always somewhat theatrical,
often declamatOry, who reads Shaks-
pere as the actors of the eighteenth
century read him. In the tipsy scene
l fancy Mr.. Willard rather overdid
this theatrical side of the man when,
in speaking to the woman he loves,
'Garrick" fOrgets his odious part for
a moment, and talks of the true in
SEPARATION Of the stage. He spoke for
her ear alone, and even ''Garrick''
would scarcely have INDUCED in de-

usual manner. In the last act, when
entreating the girl tOQuit his apart
ments and return to her father, this
tinge Of the theatric is almost entirely
absent, and l thought the character
became more convincing from its alb
sence. Yet it is in the tipsy scene
that Willard does his best work.

such he deserves to be taken seriously.
Acting has become one Of the most
intensely subjective Of the arts; play
ers have their own playwrights, who
are en- rapport with all their personal
mannerisms and predictions, and
who write for them one part over and
over, one part placed in different sur
roundings, set of by different fOils,
thinly disguised by the costumes of
different centuries. Actors usually
prefer adapting their parts to them
selves rather than themselves to their
parts. This is a perfectly legitimate
and often admirable form Of art. 1t
is one, however, which necessarily
subOrdinates the actors creative in
telligence, which in time quite blunts
the edge Of his intellectual acumen,
and finally paralyzes the purely Gre
alive impulse altogether. This has
been the history of all those gifted
young temperamental actors who
achieved success too early-Of Man
tell, Of Charles Coglan, Of John Drew,
Of Edward SOthern. Having once
charmed by peculiar gifts Of tempera-
ment they were assured that those
same qualities would charm again and
ceased from that travail Of the intel
lect which inevitably accompanies
artistic progression, and with their
own hands built the wall which shut
them from the stars.
l like Willard because he is the
antithesis Of all this; because he is so
calm, 50 self-contained, so ascetic, so
seemingly concentrated upon his work

results. 1 saw him every night last

fectly handled, an idea developed with
consummate skill, and high artistic
conception admirably portrayed.
There is no man on the stage today,
Richard Mansfield excepted, who
keeps his personality SO entirely out
of his work as Willard. Behind each
part you recognize the same piercing
mentality, but his physical and emo
tional personality he leaves behind

tions like SOthern's famous sweet
heart, !" which always makes the same
hearts flutter. He is altogether above
the desire to please. When he pre-
sents a character to the public, he
presents a character OF his magma
ton. He gives to that character not
only motive but tastes, standards,
mannerisms, personal attributes all its
own. No two characters could be more
wholly different than his professor
in "The Professors Love Story" and
his "Bailey ProtherO' in the ''ROgue's
Comedy" Different not only in moral
tone, but in physical, emotional and
mental attributes. He seems nightly
to have approached and made the

to have introduced himself to it anew,
