San Francisco Chronicle: Edward j.
Morgan is reported by the New York
Sun to have said that the matinee girl
bored him. and interfered with his
work. This is really sad, and the pub
lie should extend to him its sympathy
for being the possessor Of such unfor-
tunate beauty. He is quoted as saying
that it is destructive to art, or some
thing in that strain. Now, it seems
too bad that young actors promising
career should be blighted in the morn
ing of its glory by innocent, admiring
girls. Let him look up. though, for
there is hope This same nerii has
opened it's mouth like a dragon TO swal-
low up other actors who escaped md
lived to ;llumine or at least be stars,
of the stage. Maurice Barrymore, John
Drew, Henry Miller. Charles Richman,
Herbert Kelley, Robert Edison, Frank
Worthing, E. H. Sothern and others
have overcome the obstacles of their
beauty.

city which can make grand opera-that,

The holiday season is proverbially a
bad one in theatricals, and managers all
over the country have learned to dread
it. The many enticements of the shops
serve to lure those with a limited
amount of spending money. and those
who could afford both Christmas shop
ping and theatre-going prefer to be
entirely. engTossed by the excitements
and pleasures of the gift season. 1t is
time of the year when people find ali
the entertainment they need among
their families and friends. They appre-
ciate the novelty of the season and the
theatres go begging.
Many companies prefer to rest Christ
mas week rather than risk hard work
for no reward. Mr.. Edwin Mayo and
his company rested in the city during
the past week and thoroughly enjoyed
it. Actors as rule find Salt Lake con-
genial, and the "Pudd'nhead Wilson"
people are glad that their vacation hap
pened to occur here.
The week at the Salt Lake theatre
would have beer dark had it not been
for the single appearance of the Uni
versity Dramatic club. The appearance
of the club, by the way. attracted a
great deal of interest, and the members
will no doubt continue to work and es-
tablish a place for themselves as the
Home Opera company has done. Salt
Lake has had no local dramatic COM
pany for some. time, and il would seem
that the university company contains
the material for a good organiZati ton.
There was remarkably little stage
fright visible at the performance the
other night, only one of the gentlemen
having displayed it to any noticeable
degree. There were none of the rawk-
ward pauses usual in amateur produce
lions, and no apparent confusion in the
progress Of the play. This speaks eX-
ceedingly well for the management
There is decidedly a good amount of
talent in the club. and the members
should be. greatly encouraged by the
results of their performance.
Even the Grand, which has been so
rich in attractions this season, had but
half a week filled, and that with an at
traction which would seem to be trifie
stale in Salt Lake. 1t did fairly well.
however, and Manager Mulvey reasons
that it was better than having the

been cheapened because it was a sec
ond-class production in the beginning.
1t is having q remarkably long life
and has been cleverly constructed to
appeal to theatre-geers who like COM.
edy, heroism and romance of the ex-
IRENE sort intermingled.
Next week the Grand will present an
1bSen playa novelty in these parts.
and patrons of the Salt Lake theatre
will have nothing to do but look for
ward 10 the coming of Emma Nevada.
