A New Richelieu.

John P. Barrett. who plays Richelieu
in Harry Glaciers Three Muskateers, .
has created no end of controversy be-
cause of his f1oRting Of all accepted ira
ditions in making up fof the great
cardinal. Instead of the lean, gray
haired. aging churchman, Barrett rep
resents him as erect, dark-haired and
vigorous. And Barrett stands on firm
and tenable ground, for Dumas In Inc
novel plainly states that at the time he
was about 81 years Of age and, there
fore, not the old man of Bulwer's play.
Mr., Barrett is credited with having made
a careful study of the man who moved
armies by sign, who unmade kings

moribund France to the first position
among the nations of Europe.
