BLANCHE WALSH
GIVES SARDOU'S
PLAY FEDORA
Her Acting Natural
and Womanly.

With the Grand Opera volleying and
laundering almost within voice-sound,
Blanche Walsh's Princess Fedora" en-
tered upon the boards. There was not
that warm meeting between the stage
and the seats that enthuses the actor at
the Columbia last evening. Yet the fer
vor of Sardou's strong lines found full
and true Interpretation in the rendition
of that talented young star
Fedora is Russian, and the fire and
the ice, the conspiracy, the revenge and
the tragic finish of Russian love is hers.
She trails the slayer of a lover from st.
Petersburg to Paris and finds him to lure
him to a confession. to denounce him and
to love him. She compromises herself to
save him. and when he turns on her In
fury. finding that she has unwitttngly
caused the death of his brother, she pots-
ons herself and dies in a noble and thrill
Portions of Miss Walsh's Interpretation
are beautifully womanly, especially in the
fine control of herself while her lover is
reading the letter that tells him of her
duplicity. Melbourne MacDowell is her
fitting mate in this great two-character
play, strong in his love and intense in
his hate The production should draw
good houses the remainder of the week.

a fine stage appearance and their coon
songs with French accent were a hit.
