Miss BeuIah Dodge. who impersOn-

a friend in salt Lake that she viii quit
the stage after this season. She has
concluded she does not Ike the life.
And no wonderl Miss Dodge UP to
a year or so ago was singing in a
church choir at Syracuse, y. Y. She
is as devout a Christian and as perfect
a woman as one would wish to meet.
Some manager heard of quarrel that
had occurred between her and her faith
er-at least that is reputed TO have
taken place. and convinced her she
should 20 on the stage. Miss Dodge
did so. She was trained for the part
of the Salvation Army lass and went
out on the road with The Belle" An
aggregation Of that kind is invaria bly,
made up of BOhemians and worse than
BOhemians, and Miss Dodge did not
take to the associations at all. She
even would not go 10 lunch after the
performance it is said and her mOdesty
was almost too much for her manager
Now she expresses her intention Of
going back to the choir Her trip
across the continent has cured her of
all desire she may have had for the
stage.

productions are just as different as it
is possible for two styles TO make them.
one is a portrayal OF emotional acting,
the other a scenic display. And, taken
in their respective lines, there is good
reason to believe that both are greater
than the town has seen in many years.
Mrs. Fiske, in the opinion of a great
many, is the greatest emotional actress
on the American stage In the minds
OF others she Is. 1T least, "One Of the
greatest" Whatever her exact status,
her quality is something extremely rare
and the advance sale indicates that this
is not entirely unappreciated by the
salt Lake public. The Grand is prac-
ideally sold out for the three nights Of
Ber engagement. Advanced prices
seemed To cut no figure.

Mrs. Fiske who is to play, and. that is
all that's necessary to know. Her tour
across the continent has been one grand
triumph. She has had to play in cheap
houses everywhere. because of her

her on this account has grown all the
