filming himself to roles which he felt
were worthy of his talent. This talent
be no doubt conscientiously believes
that he possesses to marvellous de-
gree. But to allege that he will ever
rank in stage annals as the equal or
superior of Edwin Booth, as is contend
ed by thousands Of Englishmen, many
of whom never saw Booth act, is as
absurd as it would be to say that
Charles Reade as novelist was the
equal Of Thackeray. In other words,
it is the opinion of many close observ-
ers that, while the stage Is better be-
| cause of the fact that Henry Irving has
adorned it, he has nevertheless done no
little harm by having made pageantry
so attractive and so apparently artistic
that too much attention is now paid
to that phase of productions and too
little to the acting.
That Mr.. Irvings example, to some
extent at least, has had that effect it is
easy to determine by a visit to Julia
Arthur's presentation Of More Than
, Queen" Miss Arthur was long in
Irving's company. and from him she
imbibed her ideas of stagecraft. In
fact she confesses that she reveres him
as master in his line. Naturally,
when she was about to produce More
Than Queen" she followed his teachings
by spending probably ten of thousands
of dollars upon scenery and costumes.
But she did not follow Irving the en-
tire length by engaging a thoroughly
competent company. In fact, 1t is
doubtful whether Miss Arthur has eth
er the time. inclination or ability to
make much out of nothing in the case
of an actor, as is the way with Mr..
Irving And that is just wherein lies
the danger of the example set by the
English actor. Others are influenced
and attempt to follow the footsteps,
| but they are unable TO travel the Ell tire
distance. and they get the shadow with
out the substance.
While no one will contend that re-
turn to the methods of stage manage
ment as practiced by the actors Of CEN
turtles ago is desirable,'it cannot he de-
MED that we are in danger of going TO
the other extreme. In this connection
Austin Dobson's dainty little poem,
when Burbadge Played" might be
read with profit by those actors whose
tendency is to overelaboration of the
purely mechanical phases of a produc-
ton. These are the lines:
When Burbadge played, the stage was
bare
OF fount and temple, tower and stare.
Two backswords eked battle out
Two supers made a rabble rout;
The throne of Denmark was chair!
And yet no less the audience there
Thrilled through all changes of despair.
Hope anger. fear delight and doubt
When Burbadge played!

All moods, all passions nor. 10 care

was under the most favorable condi-

CURLING NOTES.

Mrs. T. L. Patton was visitor at the bon
spiel and acted as mascotte for her husband.
Among the prominent spectators present at
the bonspiel yesterday was Isaac Campbell,
@. c. Mr.. Campbell is one of the most prom
inent men in public life in Manitoba. For
several years he represented South Winnipeg
in the Manitoba legislature and was offered
the attorney generalship under Premier
Greenway. Mr.. Campbell declined the ap-
pointment for business reasons and is at
present city attorney of Winnipeg.
The Winnipeg bonspieers said yesterday in
speaking of the ice that they would gladly
sacrifice all of their trophies if they could
take back home with them the five sheets Of
ice at Raspberry island.
Secretary Davis deserves a great deal Of
credit for the able manner in which he has
discharged the duty of his position. One Of

According to Mr.. Holmes story the money
was entrusted to the care of his wife. Mrs.
Holmes is a paralytic and never leaves her
home. She kept the money sewed up In her
member the hoard was safely in its hid
ing place at Christmas time. The money was
missed two weeks ago, when it was dis
covered that the dress skirt had been ripped
open and the money taken out The parents
found it difficult to believe their son guilty
of the theft, but finally consulted the police,
who arrested young. Holmes in Minneapolis
yesterday. The police say the young man
confesses to having spent all but 81 or 50
of the money in dissipation. He is
charged with grand larceny.

Everybody watched with keenest interest the
