is considerab bly, larger, and the matinee
attendance at a second performance of
La Tosca" this afternoon is good
Topeka had a new ''Portia" last night
as well as a new 'Tosca.'' She was a
'Portia" that we'll pleased the rather
limited audience at the Grand Opera
House. She gave rather an original
portrayal. of Shakespeare's clever wom-
an, and while it may not have been
the exact 'Portia" that Shakespeare
had in mind when he wrote THE Mer-
chant of Venice 1t was one that won
the warm good will of the audience.
Miss Odette Tyler appeared in Topeka
for the first time last night, and was
received with much favor
The enga cement of the new triple all
lance, formed for the purpose of pre-
Senting Shakespearean drama, did not
open as auspiciousIy as it might have
done The weather had undoubtedly
something to do with the small audience
and possibly, also, the fact that admira-
ton for Shakespeare is apparently on
the decline Those who do enjoy Shakes
peare on the stage, and saw The Mer-
chant of Venice last night, considered
their time enjoyably employed
Mr.. Charles B. Hanford, the third
member of the new alliance, was neces-
sariIy somewhat in the background as
"Gratiano" in the performance last
night Mr. r D MacLean as Shy
lock- was much to the front, but he
did not succeed in overshado wing Miss
=
ceived much applause in his portrayal
of the grasping Jewish merchant, but
not more than Miss Tyler received as
his wOmanIy undoer
Mr.. MacLean's ''Shylock'' was an ad-
nirabIe character. Once in while it
seemed he gave to the part, in his
speech at least, a youthfulness which
was not possessed by Shakespeare's
Jew. In the effective portions of the
portra ya1. however, his acting was en-
tireIy satisfactory.
Miss Tyler's ''Portia' was altogether
free from affectation. Her lines were
spoken naturally. her movements and
gestures were natural as we'll She
made "Portia' a much lighter part than
is usually seen, and therein lay the
charm of her work.
While Mr. Hanford's opportunities
were limited as ''Gratiano." he made
the most of them. and the audience
liked him 1t was the same ''Gratiano''
he gave here year ago while support
ing the late Thomas Keene.
The supporting company in general
proved capable last night, and the pro-
duction was appropriately costumed
and staged
This afternoon Romeo and Juliet is
the matinee bill, and tonight "Othel1o'
will be presented, with Mr.. MacLean in
the title role, Mr.. Hanford as -Iago'
and Miss Tyler as '-Desdemona-'

A new La Tosca" appeared in To-
peka last night A young woman but
five years out of her teens, of slender,
graceful form and expressive face, as
sumed the role made famous by Fanny
Davenport and by Bernhardt before
her. If nothing else, Blanche Walsh's
ambition to follow in the footsteps of
Bernhard and Davenport, whether II
amounts to simply an attempt or some
thing more than an attempt, IS entitled
to praise.
Probably no one who saw Miss Walsh
at the Crawford theater last night viii
saw that she does not possess ability
Whether this ability viii amount TO
genius is a question. If it does not,
Sardou'S characters in her hands Will
always remain unfinished SO Tar. 1t
has not amounted to that. In the fact
that Miss Walsh is yet in her appren-
ticeshiD is a reasonable explanation of
her portrayal of La Tosca- she is
not a second Fanny Davenport, mas
much as she does not draw her audi
ence to her and hold 1t at her Will
There is something about Miss
WaIsh's portrayal which shows her ap-
premiership. She is not always unaf-
fected- Perhaps the enthusiasm with
which it is apparent she enters into the
mart is responsible for this. In may be
that the power of her youth in such an
emotional role forces from her the nat
uraI to the melOdramat1c.
In the torture scene and the scene OF
the assassination of Baron Scarpia her
ability was manifest to such a degree
that she was called before the curtain.
Considering the fact that Miss Walsh
has, during the nine years she has spent
on the stage, attempted nothing higher
than support in comedy and romantic
drama, and that her "Floria Tosca' is
but four months old, her work in these
extremely trying passages Of the Sar-
dOu drama was really ereditable-
The company supporting Miss Walsh,
headed by Melbourne MacDoWeIl is
practically the same as supported Miss
davenport the last few years she was
on the stage However, La Tosca" is
a play that limits opportunity to four
characters. those of "Cavardossf' and
.'Angelotti'' besides ''Tosca" and Scar
pia.''
To say that Mr.. Mcdowell makes
Baron Scarpia" sufficiently viIIainous
IS saving enough His familiarity with
the character during the years he sup
ported Miss Davenport, his wife, made
it easy in his hands.
The "Cavardossi'' Of Arthur Elliott
could be improved upon His stride and
speech suggest a little of the swash-
buckler.
The scenery and draperies used last
night are the same as formerly owned
by Miss Davenport
Only a fair sized audience saw the
piece The sale for Fedora" tonight

When about 200 women of various ma

the advertisement the Office was thrown
open and all made a rush for it. Inside
were John Waters. Gus Nussbaum, Chas.
Morris, John Bried, William Grau and
Gordon Monroe, who were the commit

While the selection was going on
many of the women lit cigarettes and
smoked. Some of the women rejected
told the manager in forcible language
they did not know anything about a
beautiful woman, and most of them re-
fused to bulge after being refused.
When the six men had selected a
hundred women they told the rest to go,
and then followed a riot. The disap-
pointed women called the men all sorts
of names and began beating them with
first, pieces of wood. beer signs and
other articles they found in the office.
Gordon Monroe, with his hat smash
ed over his ears, his clothing torn and
bloody, managed to escape and call the
police. To the police the women said all
they wanted was their car fare home

MISS WALSH HAS FUN
Running the Elevator at the Throop
Hotel

Blanche Walsh, the young lady who
aspires to succeed Fanny Davenport on
boy" at the Throop hotel last night;
the real elevator boy seemed to be much
OF the time somewhere else.
When she reached the elevator shaft
on her way to the dining room, after a
conversation in the parIor about s
O'Clock, she found the car but no boy
Stepping inside she busted herself for
a few moments arranging her hair
while viewing her reflection in the eIe-
vator mirror The boy continued to
remain absent
We'll, 1 don't intend to wait here for
ever, said she, rather petulantly, after
having satisfactorily disposed of two
or three stray locks. I'm awfully hum
cry Guess III run the elevator down
myself" and suitfng the action to the
word she laid hands on the elevator
rope
Just then the signal bell in the car
rang She glanced at the register and
saw that the ring came from the top
floor Maybe that's some poor mortal
as hungry as I am" she said Might
as we'll be p good fellow; so here goes
for the top floor"
Miss Walsh gave the rope pull in
the right direction. The car commenced
its gradual journey upward At the
top floor she stopped it and opened the
door for an elderly gentleman with gray
mutton chop whiskers and a nervous
air.
With the man inside Miss Walsh
started the car downward The old
gentleman looked at the fair elevator
boy with eyes open in astonishuent.
Tnmindful of his gaze, the interpreter
OF the Sardou drama gave all her at
tention to the descent of the car. and
gripped tight on the rope with her sIen-
der hands when it reached the first
floor.
There" she said. as she opened the
door for the elderly gentleman and fol-
lowed him out of the car, If 1 ever have
to give up the stage can earn my Ify-
ing running an elevator"
