AS YOU LIKE IT
Second Performance Of Janet WAL
dOFf Troupe.
A FINE RENDITION GIVEN
Excellence of Interpretation by the Star
Correct Reading - Work Of
the Support.

Miss Janet Waldorf's second per-
last night more than fulfilled the pre-
diction that the young American actress
had the genius and power to- portray
characters of the immortal beard. She
outstripped as Rosalind anything that
might have been expected of her by
those who heard her in Twelfth Night.
Nothing could have been more fin
ished than Miss Waldorf's reading Of
on its face years of hard work and
study. That she is student and has
had the best of instruction is apparent.
Besides this, she is naturally an ac-
rising to every climax without the
slightest attempt at play acting. In fact
in this particular her work is very
refreshing.
AS You Like Il is especially adapted
to bring out the genius and versatility
of an actress. Rosalind is a great
part and Miss Waldorf fully appreciat-
ed the opportunity. 1t has in it pathos
that Of two girls, high born, being
compelled to seek their own fortunes
through the tyranny of an uncle. This
point was we'll brought out in the first
act
Nothing could have been more de-
l;ghtful. ingenious and womanly than
Rosalind's desire to have Orlando make
love to her incognito in the forest OF
Arden In fact, the work must pass
without criticism. Miss Waldorf GER
tainiy has great future and she shows
by her painstaking work that success
cannot come without great application.
It will be of great interest to lovers OF
the histrionic art to see how TINS
talented star handles the other great
roles she is assigned to.
Mr.. VIM. McVay as Jacques was at
his best. There is no character IN
the play more adapted to fine work
than this and Mr.. McVay appreciated
the opportunity. His reading was
good. bringing we'll merited applause
in the rendering of the seven ages. 8.
If there was anything amiss III Mr..
Norval McGregor's performance on
the opening might he certainly made
up for it by his rendering OF Orlando.
He was clear in his reading and ard
ent in his love-making.
Touchstone is a difficult part, but it
must be said that for one so young
Mr.. Hernandez showed a fine concep-
ton of it. The main thing with
Touchstone lis knowing how to read
his lines Inis the young actor did
very satisfactorily and his acting was
good.
As might have been expected Miss
Dow, as she is known to old theater
goers, now Mrs. Currier, played the
part of Andry in a manner that was
particularly noticeable for it's fine fin
ish-that is TO say, its perfect abandon
ment and righteousness.
Mr.. G.. w. Bowman's Adam, Mr.. Geo.
Howard's Duke, and Mr.. Herbert T.
Shaw's Banished Duke. were all good.
Miss Ellen Boyer as Celia and Miss
Virginia Cranna as Phoebe did not
have opportunity for the test Of their
real worth; nor did Mr.. Francis Boggs
as Oliver De Bois have the opportun-
ity that viii be given him later for his
fine reading
1t must be said, and that without
overpraise, that the balance of the
Janet Waldorf company is very per-
feet, each one doing good work.

River Riplets.

The steamer Dubuque, of the Dia-
mond 10 line, is scheduled to arrive
from St. Louis tonight.
The stage of water at the bridge at
a. IN. was $50, and at noon it was
9-45. The temperature at noon
| was so.
The Tenbroeck brought down 10
strings of logs, and the j. w. Van
SAINT 50 strings. Other boats down
were the Lydia Van SAINT, Ruth, Verne
Swain, Lone Star and Winona; up, E.
Rutledge, X. ID. Kendall, Ruth, Wi
mona, Lone Star and Verne Swain.
The steamer Volunteer, which has
succeeded the w. j. Young in the
Burlington short line trade, is one of
the nattiest craft that sail the Mis-
sissippi this season. Capt. Walter
Blair is proud of her, and well he
may be. In addition to being rebuilt
from the hull up, the boat is thor
oughly equipped with every home
like convenience, even to electric
lights, and modern plumbing, all of
which was not installed when the
boat started out on her first trip.
The cabin of the boat is coy and
home-like. and the Is state rooms are
furnished in manner which VIII de-
light the patrons of the Carnival City
Packet company during the remain
der of the season. Spring mattresses
of the latest design are among the
furnishings of the state rooms, while
down in the engine room is a small
sized electric plant, which furnishes
the cabin and state rooms with cleo
trio light. In the engine room new
valve gear has been installed on the
pistons, and the machinery has been
generally overhauled. while the
kitchen is one of the most convenient
and best equipped on the river. In
addition to an ice box, with a big ca
pacity, the boat is provided with a
cold storage room. which will hold
half car load of meat. The table
will also be elegantly set with new
Syracuse china, acknowledgement,
and the best fare on the river.

You Can Boil Anything.

A successful experiment was made at
Columbia university in boiling away a
silver dime. The dime was cut in strips
and laid in the cup of one of the car
bons of the arc light. The pointed car
bon of the arc was placed above this
and strong current turned on. Under
the intense heat the dime melted, sim
mered and then boiled like water. In
two minutes it had boiled away into
vapOr. Professor Pupin, who conducted
the experiment. declared any substance
on earth, even granite rock, may be
boiled away in similar fashion if only
sufficient heat is brought to bear ON it.
He also stated that any gas or liquid
would freeze if it could be submitted to
sufficient cold.

Census Taking In China.

In china census methods are simple.
They don't have much trouble to take
a census there. When the time for MAX
ing count of the families and their
individual members comes around, the
head of each house is compelled by law
to write on slip of paper the number
of individuals living with him and the
name of each person. The authorities
lay particular stress upon correct spell
ing. and there is a severe penalty at
tached to any misrepresentation either
as to the number of persons or their
names This obviates in the beginning
the wrestling with unpronounceable
names. which helps to make life inter
esting for the American census taker,
and reduces the enumeration of the
population of Chinese city to u very
simple process.

HIS THREE WIVES.
They Were All In One Picture, but
Did Not Stay There.

! They Were All In One Picture, but
Did Not Stay There.
Allan Cunningham. in his Lives of
British Painters, tells story of Cop
ley, the father of Lord Chancellor Lynd-
hurst, which reveals what a portrait
painter eudures from the vanity and
eccentricity of his sitters.
A certain man had himself. his wife
and seven children painted by Copley
in family piece.
"Itsvants but one thing said the
man, ON seeing the finished picture,
land that is the portrait of my first
wife-this one is my second 3"
But" replied the artist, ''she is
dead. What can dos She must come
in as an angel
''Oh, no; no angels for me. She
must come in as a woman"
The portrait was added, but several
months elapsed before the man again
called at Copley's studio, and when he
did, a strange lady held on to his arm.
Il must have another sketch from
your hand. Copley, said he. IAN ac-
cident befell my second wife; this lady
is my third, and she has come to have
her likeness included in the family pic
ture.''
The painter introduced the likeness
of wife No 8, and the man expressed
himself satisfied with the portraits of
his three spouses. But the lady remon-
strated. Never was such thing heard
of. Her predecessors must go. The
artist painted them out; then the man
disputed the price. Corley sued him.
and his son. the future Lord Lyndhurst,
signalized his call to the bar by gaining
his fathers cause.
