O'Neill as a Swordsman,

1t almost goes without saying that
as D'Artagnan in Liebler and Com
pany's gorgeous production of THE
Musketeers." which is to be the Christ
mas attraction at the Lyceum, James
O'Neill has another opportunity to dis
play his superb workmanship. The
public remembers, of course, the ease
with which he, as the Count of Monte
CristO, used to dispatch Danglars, the
banker, to his deserved death. During
several seasons it was necessary to
change the actors who were first en-
gagged for that part, as they refused
to play it after a few months had
passed, claiming that they did not en-
gage to have two or three fingers cut
off in the duel scene for the privilege
OF playing opposite to Mr.. O'Neill.
In his younger days Mr.. O'Neill
crossed swords with all the noted ac-
tors of the period in whose companies
he served Edwin Forrest, Barry Sui
livan, Edwin Booth, Lawrence Bar
rett all matched their fencing skill
against his. On one occasion the H.
lustrious Booth caught him off his
guard and promptly knocked out one
of his leading mans front teeth. As
D'Artagnan was known among the
musketeers of King Louis as the best
swordsman of his time, so James
O'Neill enjoys the reputation of being
one of the cleverest men with the foil
In the world today. Mr. O'Neill will
be seen at the Lyceum Christmas af-
ternoOn and evening.

THEATRICAL.
"CYrano de Bergerac.n

Francis Wilson has long been rec
ognized as one of the bright, luminous
stars in the light opera Ornament,
and he Is always sure Of full and at
tentive hearing from theater-goers.
Even If his vehicle happens to be a
little shaky 1t goes" if there Is plenty
OF Wilson in It.
There Is naturally plenty Of Wilson
in "Cyrano dc Bergerac." in which he
appeared at the Lyceum last night. and
the only thing the audience regretted
was that there wasn't more of Wilson.
There were not many bright moments
when Wilson was off the stage unless
the charming Lulu CHASER came on TO
help the meriment along.
Cyrano dc Bergcrac l. not the kind
OF character around which a model
comic opera can be constructed. Harry
b. Smith did some good work on the
book and Victor Herbelt's music gives
no indication that he, is writing him
self to death. but one can't escape tha
conclusion that the whole thing Is
rather fiat. Wilson realizes this
and he worked like Trojan
last night to overcome the handi-
cap and was rewarded by real, hon
est and hearty applause. The CyranS
he is now giving the public Is evidently
not the individual carved out by the
comic opera constructors. Wilson is at
present introducing to theatre-goers a
burlesque on Rostrand's hero 'Tis a
dignified, unaggressive burlesque. let It
be said There was nothing left for
Wilson to do but burlesque Only in
that way could he induce any laughs
to eXude from Cyrano.
Miss Glaser's Roxane was a trihe
more broadly burlesqued than Mr.. Will
sons Cyrano but it was delightful and
introduced that talented young woman
to Scranton audience in a new light.
Her ability as a comedienne has not
heretofore been appreciated here. The
leading woman of a light opera COM
edian is ordinarily now expected to do
much In the way of affecting the risi-
bilities of the audience, but Miss Glaser
has ignored that fact. She easily
divided the honors with Wilson last
night.
There were a number of good voices
in the company and Mr. Smiths lyrics
were very pleasantly rendered. Two of
Victor Herbert's waltz numbers won
instant favor with the audience. The
music, taken in its entirety, is delight
ful, and Mr.. Wilson has staged the
opera in a strlkingly magnificent man
ner. 1t does not follow the lines of
the original poem very closely. Rox-
ane does not marry Christian, instead
giving her hand to the Chivalrous Cy-
rano.
