1.-THE PLAYN

The genius of Shakespeare and the art of Rehan combined to thoroughly delight a large and fashionable audience at the Jefferson theater last night when that splendid actress appeared in 'TThe Tanning of the Shrew."
 There be some hereties who say they do not like '"The Tanning of the Shrew." and there have been some who have said that Tom Jones or John Smith or some one else wrote it. or at least the foundation of it. that Shakespeare simply wrote an adapta- tion. But all this is neither here nor there. Nothing can be proven one way or the other as to authorship. and all but a few critics believe Shakespeare wrote it. and accept it as such, holding therefore, that poetry and humor are properly mingled in it. and that human passions and feelings are portrayed as they are nowhere else in literature.
 As Kathedine, Miss Rehan has a severe task. She has to meet variety of distress ing circumstances, for Petruchio is by no means consderate in his efforts to tame his newly welded wife. She must stand up against his bullying, and yet be at no time ridiculous or tear-eompelling. That she succeeded in this is praise enough, even if she did not at any time rise to the height of her wonderful art. All felt last night that Miss Rehan not only presented in all its fullness Shakespeare's wonderful char actor but that her creative genius went a step beyond. All felt her power as an ar tist.
 George Clarke as the bullying husband was fully as bad man need t)e-fully as bad as his short stature justified. But he showed that a si1iort man can do a great deal towards tanning a shrew, for at the end Katherine became a loving, loyal and devoted wife.
 Wifred Clarke as Grumio added to the enjoyment of the evening, bringing laugh ter into every scene in which he appeared. The production as a whole and in detail was excellent, and trlere was a general wish apparent that Miss Rehan will an- nually come this way, this being her first tour through this section of the country.
