right-minded people Will discOurag
the enterprise by their absence. 1t has
always been claimed that women make
a theatrical success. # they like a
play, its patronage is assured. Like
wise has the sex been accredited with
an abnormal share of curiosity. IN
this way the vogue of risque plays has
often been laid at their door Il may
be so TO a certain degree, but they do
not pay enormous premiums for seats
for vulgar first nights. 1t is said that
a few minutes before the curtain rose
for "Sapho' the other night two seats
were sold for So each Americans are
too sensible to believe that successful
actress must partake of the nature Of
the part she plays, but it would Seem
that our actresses could do much
toward bringing this era of vicious
plays to a close by refusing to act in
them. Maude Adams is q shining eX-
ample for high ideals. and her undis-
puted success should lesd more to fol-
low her examples. It IS a pity that
women of talent should use it 10 appeal
to the deDraved side of human nature.
IT would seem that such was not the
mission OF art. and it is such practice
which brings and holds the stage to
the contempt of the particular and the
religious There is no reason why the
drama as an art should make any
blush.

Walsh and Mcdowell.

One Of the most popular engagements
Of the entire theatrical year viii open at
the Salt Lake theatre next Monday
night when Blanche Walsh and Mel
bourne MaeDowen viii come for three
nights. These players raised quite a
furoTe on the occasion of their last
visit here and their engagement next
week is already causing a buzz of ex-
element among theatre goers. Miss
Walsh is one OF the leading emotional
actresses of America, as well as one
Of the youngest. She is about the same
age as Nance O'NeiI and something the
same style Of an actress. The story Of
her origin and early life has been re
peated many times. and 1t viii suffice
to say that she, by her own efforts, has
raised herself from obscurity to fame
Miss Walsh is very beautiful, which is
a potent factor in her favor, and this
with her youth and splendid talent,
makes her one of the strongest act
resses Of the present day. Fanny Da-
Fenport herself chose Miss Walsh as
her successor. Mr. Mcdowell Is
powerful artist and one of the best
known Of our legitimate actors. He
supported his wife. Miss Davenport, for
many seasons. in the plays which s.ltt

On the editorial page Of the Dramat-

said. among other pleasant things;
We ask actors. actresses. managers

Chem Cats.

General Sir Herbert Chermside was
formerly a consul in Asia Minor. Once,
in weak moment he sent couple Of
beautiful Angora cats as a present to
a lady in Constantinople The lady
was so pleased that she asked him to
send some more. Sir Herbert gave his
native servant some money and told
him to go and buy two or three. Then
came a demand for more cats from the
consyl's friends. and he gave his serv
ant more money with which to buy
cats.
This went on for two or three
months, and the native servant waXed
exceeding fat. One morning. however,
the general, on coming out of the con
sulate. was surrounded by a host of
Infatuated yelled women, who besought
Mohammed to curse him because he
had stolen all their cats. 1t appears
that the native servant had pocketed
the money for himself and gone round
with a sack and confiscated every cat
in the place.
