Always popular I'm this town where
theatre goers have watched his career
from a singer in farce comedy to his
present eminence as star, Andrew
Mack will make new friends at the
Providence Opera House this week i'm
the picturesque, romantic and musical
drama "The Ragged Earl" The new
piece. which proved strong and popular
enough to fill one of Americas biggest
theatres-the New York Academy of
Music-for a considerable run" is
built for the young Irish comedian and
similarly Mr.. Mack has heretofore
found nothing so thoroughly we'll
rounded TO his especial talents as the
part Of the Ragged Earl In setting of
romantic reading and music and charm
ing scenery. To the many lovers of the
drama wherein the light hearted but
cool headed and dashing hero brings
order out Of chaos and happiness out
of troubles deep and dark where viii
lainy is foiled after a threatened sue
cess and virtue Is amply rewarded for
all the complications that inVeigh
against IL. where men are mostly brave
and women are good, where the cos
tuning delights the eye and the cli-
MAKES thrill, the Ragged Earl makes
the strongest sort OF an appeal and
commands an audience even though
the blizzard RACES as II did last night.
For the audience at the opening gave "A
warm reception to the young comedian
and his company and testified its ap-
probation by tnat unfailing evidence
the curtain call"
Mack's singing is,of course. his strong
card. He has "A sweet and sympathetic
voice and he sings as IL he. as we'll as
his audience, enjoys II. 1t is a pleasure
TO hear him and To look at him, for he
is a mighty good looking fellow and
never appeared 10 better advantage
than he does as the Gerald Kildare, the

This pretty comedy drama is the
joint production of Ernest Lacy and

Unaffrighted by the silence round them,
Undistracted by the sights they see,
These demand not that the things about them
Yield them love, amusement, sympathy.
And with joy the stars perform their shining,

whom such little set of biographies of

'Tis theirs to sweep through the ringing deep

Or buffet path through the Pits red wrath

Or hang with the reckless seTaphim on the rein

They take their mirth in the joy of the Garth

For they knc'v OF toll and the end of toll
they know Gods law is plain;
So they whistle the Devil to make them sport

And ofttimes cometh our wise Lord God, master
of every trade.

And they rise to their feet as he passes by

So, cup to lip in fellowship. they gave him
welcome high
And made him place at the banquet board,

Who had done his work and held his peace and
had no fear TO die.

"Infatuation,' by b. NJ. Croker, proves
that the author has remarkably keen
sense of the fitness OF things. The heroine
is possessed by feeling which can be
called nothing else in the world but infat-
uation. Maria Talbot-that is her name
spends the decade of her life between
twenty and thirty in taking care of sell
fish, exacting old aunt and waiting for a
faithless lover to come back and marry
her. Meanwhile the lover is roaming
around the world having a good time at
other peoples expense. Even when his
faithlessness is proved to Maria, and a
tuOTOuSHly worthy man appears 10 pledu
for her hand, it takes some time for her to
overcome the feeling that she can never
marry anyone but the man who so heart
lessly deceived her. Yet she is thor
oughly natural and lifelike figure. and all
the character drawing in the book is done
with considerable skill. Among the char
acters is an American girl by the name of
Mamie Fontaine, whom the author has
evidently determined TO make as attractive
as girl can be. In this she succeeds fairly
we'll, and the portrait is at any rate no
more a caricature than two-thirds of the
other portraits of Americans In Eng

makes slip in trying to reproduce Ameri-
