Grand-Mrs. FisIke's Engagement.

Grand-NIrs. Fislke's Engagement.
The Grand Opera House was packed to
the doors yesterday afternoon with an audi
ence Of enthusiastic people to witness Mrs.
Fiskes production OF "Tess." This is her
strongest character portrayal. Those who
saw her work in this play last year are
forced to own that she fell short on this oc-
casion. Mrs. Fiske's Tess is a character OF
absorbing interest, but she does not love
so intensely nor suffer so keenly as the
Tess of year ago. She seemed to miss
the key in the famous murder scene. Her
voice, when she called Marion after Angel
Claires return, had the ring of a hardened
woman rather than one who had suddenly
realized the tragic trick which had been
played on her, and from that moment Tess
was played carelessly. Mrs. Fiske has
Topped Off some of the melodramatic effects,
and has thereby made the character more
natural
The long-anticlpated 'Divorcons," one of
Sardou's almost matchless comedies was
given last night to another large audience.
The entertainment was a veritable revela-
ton to those who had never seen Mrs. Fiske
in comedy Her success was attested by
the applause, that amounted almost to an
ovation The character was handled with
the same psychological insight which makes
Mrs. Fiske's tragic roles a triumph. When
she depicts human emotions OF love or suf-
fering she does so as one who has felt that
which she seeks to portray, but when she
endeayorS to become comedienne arid
now forth the lighter side of life she is I'M
able to quite remove from her personality
all evidences OF the s0mber emotions with
which she has so lately dealt. 1t was this
seriousness that enhanced the comedy ef-
feet. Mrs. Fiske will win more praise by
ronfining herself TO delineations of those
emotions and pangs which cause their vic
tins to have drawn faces and harsh voices
with semi-occasional bursts of tears, but
as a relief, a bit of French gayety such as
that portrayed in ''DivOrcons," is de-
lightful change.
This afternoon the Grand Stock Company
will resume it's interrupted week with "The
