THE DAGGER AND THE CROSS,

In his new play, Tho Daggar and the
Cross" RoberuR. Mantell will be presen
here on Wednesday night.
Mr.. Mantell has once again proved his
claim to rank among the greatest expon-
ents Of romantic drama that the stage
has known. Mr.. Mantcll is essentially an
actor of classic and romantic drama, His
fine performance Of Hamlet in recent
years is we'll remembered, but the public
seems to prefer him In modern romance.
Bearing, gesture, voice and personality
irrevocably mark him as n romantic ill.,
terpreter and his present production Is
said to be the most successful Of his entire
career. Without any desirsto indulge in
wholesale eulogy. ono must praise Mr..
Mantell in unqualified terms for the good
ho ha. brought to bear upon tho stage OF
to-day. He takes u manly view Of his art
and has never tailored in the maintenance
Of its dignity. This season he is undor

ment caterors.
