production was some time n the early
part OF the century. when Mrs. BARELY

be noted that no record Of an actress
playing both characters is to be found

but Miss Kidder has shown beyond
shadow OF doubt that the two parts are
naturally best portrayed by a single
person.

eHave You Seen smithP,,

Rumor has it that Of all farce COM
edieS there has never been one more
potent to create laughter than Have
You Seen Smith" which makes its en-
try into this city before long. 1t is
said to be the funniest of funny shows.
This season il has been revised and
rendered up to date and is presented by
Manager Thomas H. Davis with an eX-
ceedingly clever company. There are
several broadlyvdrawn characters in the
piece. There is the semblance of a plot,
however, to the farce, and the fact that
it deals in a satirical manner with Incl
dents in everyday life lends interest.
Unadulterated wit Is a rare commodity
in sO-called farce comedies, but as the
author of Have You Seen Smith
claims for his work only a skilfully
constructed vehicle for the marketing
of a pleasing article of amusement
doubtless the result will show an i'm
provement over the stock parcelled out
by the less modest purVeyOr- Dominant
features are the music, dancing
marches, medleys and duartette sing
ing and numerous varied and unique
specialties, and ALL it is said. possess
the charm of novelty. Have You Seen

Mr.. Collin Kemper, who was a MEM
Der Of the Daily company for several
years, including a London season, is
another strong member of the company.
Mr.. Kemper is an exceedingly natural
actor and comes as near as possible to
q modernly colloquial reading of the
classics. He is always interesting and
effective.
Mrs. Henry Vandehoff, widow of the
great Henry Vandehoff, is particular
~ strong ally in this elaborate under
taking, for she is thoroughly familiar
with the best traditions of the legiti-
mate stage and is an artist of eXcep-
tional attainment. Other notable peo-
pie are Mr.. Norman Hackett, Mr.. W. A
Lincoln, Thomas Coffin Cooke. j. L.
McVicker, Harvey Cassidy, George Nc
Culla, Miss Helen Singer, Miss Aphie
James, Miss Emily Grey Bethel, Miss
Drofnah and twenty others.
The repertoire for the engagement Is
as follows: Wednesday, Thursday and
Saturday matinee, The Winters Tale"
Friday. THE Rivals with Mr.. James
as Fighting Bob Acres, and Saturday,
Macbeth"
The advance sale for the triumvirateS'
enga cement opened yesterday with a
rush, and packed HOUSES are assured for
the whole engagement.

"The Winters Tale. y

The Winters Tale" has been seen
all too seldom on the American stage.
The last worthy effort made to
produce this play was Mary Ander-
sons. Miss Anderson chose The Win
ter's Tale" by the way, for her fare
well appearance on the stage. Miss An
derson achieved success as Perdita and
HermiOne, and it is interesting to note
that the next actress to make a like
trial Of her abilities is another Amer
lean girl, Miss Kathryn Kidder.
The production of The Winters
Tale by AIessTs. Wagenhals & Kemper,
in which Louis James Miss Kidder
and Charles B. Hanford are to appear
here, is said to be in every way worthy
of comparison with Miss Anderson S.
The general impression seems to be,
wherever this production of The Win
ter's Tale has been given, that never
before in this generation at least. have
the leading roles of this most difficult
but beautiful drama been so happily
filled. In this instance, Miss Kidder es-
says. of course, two very different char
acterS. Hermione, the grand matrcn.
and Perdita, the romantic Waif, the
quintessence Of youth and love in
woman

1t is natural that the play-going pub
lie should be impressed by the an
nOuncement of such a stellar aggrega-
ton as that of Louis James, Kathryn
kidder and Charles =. Hanford, which
Will be seen at the SAT- Lake theatre
next Wednesday night in The Winters
Tale
Although popular interest centers in
the distinguished stars and the elab-
crate revivalS of standard plays that
viii be given by this company, il is a
great satisfaction to the exacting tastes
of today to know that the stars will be
supported by people who are entirely
worthy of the leading lights Of the or
ganization. Mes5rs. Wagenhals &
Kemper, the managers of this big or
ganiZation, have recognized the fact
that it is necessary in order TO present
a complete and harmonious production
of each play of their repertoire, to en-
gage competent people for all the roles.
They have, therefore secured a COM
pany numbering thirty-seven people,
nearly all of whom have been chosen
with special reference TO their fitness
for certain arts.
Among the people who viii support
this great triumvirate is Mr. Harry
Langdon. the best old man" on the le-
climate stage of America Mr. Lang
don has been conspicueusly associated
with all the leading legitimate stars Of
our stage for a number Of years. He
has no peer in such roles as Sir Peter
Teazle, Brabantio. Polonius, Casca and
the like. Mr.. John a. Ellsler, who for
many years has been identified with the
legitimate drama, playing in the best
companies. and whose name is almost a
household word" with theatre-goers
will be prominently cast. Mr.. Langdon
and Mr.. Ellsler are familiarly referred
to as the two grand ole men" of the
ShakesDearean drama
Mr.. Barry tombstone, formerly lead
ing man with Mr.. James, has distin-
guished himself in varied line of char
acters. He is an earnest actor and a
finished artist. and his support will be
a big factor in the coming engagement.

is probably wise and good that there
should be a lull at the beginning Of
Lent to continue until the following
fall. for the public there is indeed sur
feited. And. as in the case of the pres
ent season, they are not only surfeited
with attractions. but with a style Of
them. from which rest forever would
be best. So if a phase Of either religion
Or nature serve to drop the curtain on
that type Of drama which is gaining 4
stronger foothold every season, il would
be welcome to all who have the best
interests of the stage at heart.
Much interest is taken all over the
country i'm the fight between Olga Meth
ersOie and he law. in New York. The
fight was brought about by the New

after the actress appearance IN

lieve is the worst type of the immoral
drama ever produced in New York.
There are many reasons why this state
ment is omen to the eusDiciOn Of exag-
geratiOn, but at the same time it is true
that "Sapho" is at least one Of a grow
ing class Of plays which should be
wiped off the American stage. The trou-

And, indeed. the methods used, even If
the motives be sound, make these sus-

that the public taste for the depraved
drama is growing. 1t is not many years
since the immoral situations of a play
were Kissed off the stage of a New York
theatre. Nowadays such scenes are
used 10 advertise the production, used
as a bid for public patronage. Thous-
ands of people are turned away from
Wallack's theatre. where "Sapho' is

The Lenten season is upon us and
spring is close at hand. There was a
time when both of these Dortended
much for tLeatricals. Those who keep
Lent are naturally forced &c forego
many pleasures. and the theatre used
10 be mentioned among them. Now,
however, many diversions are permits
Eible during the season Of sackclOth
and ashes. and society is almost as
fully represented a. the theatres as at
any other time II the year. This is as
It should be. especially here in Salt
Lake, for we are moi a. any time sur
Teited with attractions. and must take
them as they come. Besides. the best
dramatic productions that come to US
are as much for instruction ais for
amusement, and there can be no pos
sible harm in them. Take the James
Kidder-Hanford engagement the com
ing week. for instance. Ii can be moth
ing but elevating to see such artists IN
a Winters Tale" The Rivals and
Macbeth"
IA far as the approach of spring is
concerned, il ia always regarded by
managers in the large eastern cities
with the utmost apprehension. For
them it means the coming of the bicy-
2le fever and the desire 10 be out of
aoorS-and the consequent neglect of
the theatres. They have largely met
this difficulty by the introduction of
roof gardens as features of the spring
and summer ADJUSTMENTS. Here, how
ever. the coming Of spring need cause
the managers no distress. for we may
have bicycle rides. moonlight walks and
tho theatre as well-having variety as
vel ~ pleasure Then. inasmuch as
many of our best attractions come TO
us iu the spring. we are more than will

while they are with US-for We have
