There are three new turns at the Or
pheum this week, and each in its KIND IS
good. Cora Tanner and Louis Massen,
players Of legitimate reputation, appear
in a bright If not very ambitious sketch

scene is a studio where comes the wire,
thinking her husband is there under an
assumed name, and that he is pretending
to be an artist. She exchanges her street
garment for others more spectacular and
greets him as the painter who occupies
the studio. He takes her to Pc ms ms
friends model and pretends to be the
painter. and all works humorously IN ner
favor until he sees that she knows MIN,
whereupon he promptly says, that ne mas
put up the whole scheme himself and
come there just to trap her. Ihen Iol-
lows the usual humorous reconciliation.
Miss Tanner and Mr. Massen are tS egna 1t to
a much severer histriontc strain tnan this

note OF the character, she introduces a
motley of Rankinisms that annihllates
the life-likeness of the portrait.
There are times when she gives
really vital identity to the central figure
In this absorbing domestic tragedy, but
there are others. many others, when her
work is nothing better than husky
melodrama, when the fine irony and
bitterness of Magda's lines are given
with the fake emotional voice and the
overdone facialism, SO that, on the
whole. it is a very difficult matter TO
consider the performance with serious
ness and justice. And at the same time
you feel an admiration for the good
workmanship that is displayed, even as
you resent the false schooling and nasty
temperament that keep it from being
all good workmanship. She has the
material and the mind-you feel that
and a certain amount Of rough but ef-
fective technique; but she lacks in that
quality of generalship which is essential
to a we'll proportional characterization
She boils to a fever at the slightest
provocation, and INDUCES in all those
old cant tricks Of playacting OF when
her tutor is such a past master.
Miss O'Neil is no longer an infant:
and certainly after this much practical
work the assurance that she may some
day be a great actress can be OF no
more immediate satisfaction to her
than 1t is to us. The female player
has fewer years in which to attain au-
thoritative art than has the male. The
player's life is brief enough at best, but
Time is doubly swift and cruel to the
women of the stage. 1t is with them'
so to speak, now or never. Miss
O'Neil is a big, strenuous, interesting
personality, who ought to be big
artist. sse has improved not at al
since her first season at the Columbia;
and with her present environment 1t is
not likely that she will improve. With
all respect for her tutor, who is an ad-
mirable man in his own life OF pusl-
ness. I think that the principle obstacle
is too much Rankin. -,
Miss O'Neil will play in East Lynne
tonight and Sunday night, "Ingom7sar
Wednesday night, THE Jewess" Fri
dav night and Camille" at the Satur-
day matinee. On Saturday night the
bill will be OLIVER Twist" in which
play both Miss O'Neil and Mr.. Rankin
are at their melodramatic best.

THERE was confusion worse con-
founded of tongues in Justice Groez-
fnger's court yesterday afternoon. In

vocal chords to a fiddle string tension in
an effort to turn an American idea into
japanese words, then all but splintered
his larynx twisting thoughts out of the
lacquered lingo of the Nikado into the
picturesque phraseology of a San Fran
cisco temple of justice.
The courtroom was full Of small brown
Japs, who were anxious TO buck and tackle
the syntax of the Anglo-SaXon, but who
went down before a rush of battering
English sentences. At one time Judge
Groezinger lost himself in the mixing Of
the tongues, and three japanese interpre-
tiers got at one of their countrymen triced
up in the witness box. In five questions
they had him reduced to a state of hope
less imbecility, and in two more queries
they were unable to understand each
other. An attorney, after complaining
bitterly of the inability of the laps to
handle the English language, asked the
following question:

The answer came back through the in

1t was in the hearing of the case of
Toda, the Japanese procurer, slave owner
and divekeeper from Brooklyn alley,
charged with keeping Chiyo, minor girl,
in a house of Ill fame. Miss Mia Koku
Chiyo-her full name-was born in the
eleventh month of the fifteenth year of
the nresent ruler of her country, which,

in Japan, makes her over Is. If Toda
could work his native Nippon calendar
over on this side of the Pacific he would
