of the character is every bit as good

point of stature and size, he is more
typical in the part.
Theatrical companies by the score
are going in from the road, either be-
cause they are forced in by bankruptcy

to be a bad one, particularly for I'M

Most of the managers of the COM

There has been a great ado over Ger
tain companies closing their seasons
for the reason that their managers have
not been able to secure a New York
opening and "a New York endorse
ment." The fact is, however, that very
many of the biggest successes of the
past either failed ignobly in New York.
or else never appeared there at all. If
the play and company is of the right
sort the provincials, so-called, do not
have to have New York tell them so.
Good news is carried on the same wire,
travels on the same express and is a
part of the same letter with the bad.
Booth, Jefferson, Marlowe Goodwin
and Russell have never needed "a New
York endorsement" There is a new
star this year, too, who has not both
cred on this score, being little Ade-
laide Thurston, who is appearing with
conspicuous success in Sweet Clover"
Despite the fact that she has not trou-
bled her pretty head about New York,
she has been playing to crowded houses
all along the theatrical highway and
making a fine name for herself, a name
already made conspicuous by her great
artistic success in the Little Minis

presented at a matinee and night per-
Torrance yesterday. At both perform

play is a melodrama in four acts the
scenes being laid in Paris and Fontaln-

scenes and climaxes in the play. This
is the first time the play has been pro-
duced in the South. but it has been
on the road for six seasons, and has
proven a big success. 1t is well set and

all thdt Is clean, artistic, merltOrlOuS
and enjoyable.
1t is not generally known that many
actors now before the public have other
artistic gifts than those displayed by
them in the pursuit of their histrionic
profession. Joseph Jefferson is a well
known painter in his leisure moments,
and Bernhard has given to the artistic
world examples of her talent as
sculptor. If anyone should stroll into
the exhibitions given each year in Lon
don or New York they could not fail
to be attracted by several dainty wa
ter color sketches depicting scenes in
Algerian life. After enjoying the pic
lures you Will naturally look for the
artists signature, and modestly and
unobtrusively on each painting will be
noted H. Dudley Hawley." Few win
connect this name with that of the
young actor who is making such a sue
cess as The Imp" in when We
Were 81" which will soon be seen in
this city. But such, however, is the
case. The young artist and the young
actor are one and the same person,
proving conclusively that artistic tenn
permanent will sometimes find express
sion even in different channels.
The Importance to the actress of an
alluring and musical voice can hardly
be estimated. Even with an at
tractive personality, along with eyes
like famous Italian tragedienne's
which were said to SAY fine things"
If the actress has a voice. harsh and
discordant as harp played on with
a hammer, she has small chance Of
winning her way on the stage OF course
there have been actresses that have
succeeded despite the fact that their
voices were beyond the art of a. tuner.
Sophia Arnold, the famous French ac.
treSs, was one of these. It was said of
her that she had ''as fine an asthma as
was ever heard" Yet, there is hardly
a parallel on the English-speaking
stage, since all the great actresses
from the charming Peg Wellington to
the festive ). Jordan, had voices
atuned for rip lJles and daintiness of die
ton. Mrs. Patrick Campbell's voice has
magic in its melody, and Ellen Terry's
would charm a bird off a bush" The
three most popular OF American ac-
tresses, Viola Allen, Maud Adams and
Julia Harlowe, have voices that MUIR
muir Aeolian sounds with fetching ten
dernesses. Words drop like honey from
their lips. Miss Marlowe's quickly
swells from plaintive sweetness into
full, strong and commanding accents;
Miss Adams is like the notes of a flute
played upon by a master; while Viola
Aliens is a cordial to the soul rich
and full like the lucious juice of the
vine. It's tones sink with steady
melting sweetness into the heart. In
the love scenes of in the Palace of the
King" Miss Aliens voice is, as Will
liam Winter lately wrote, "as en-
trancing as the notes of warbling
birds in the wales of Already"
That Miss Allen is to appear in this
city during the present season is a
matter of congratulation for local the
ater-goers. She will present, I'm the
Palace of the King"

as personal as the national character

To-day was the occasion when the
nation was to pay its last tribute of
respect and admiration at the bier OF

had sent here its representatives to
testify that the dead had his place deep

Other nations had ordered their
dplomatic and military representa-
tyss to be present as a token that
they mourned with America in Its
loss.
Ex-President Cleveland was here to
take part in the ceremonies. and like

About the White House the patrol
o. soldiers and sailors guarding the
entrance and grounds told the sad
story. The night there had been quiet.
A vigil over the dead had been main
tanned throughout the watches. De-
tails of cavalrymen, artillerymen ana
infantrymen, sailors and marines were
on guard around the grounds. A SEN
tryman paced back and fourth on the
rortico. Inside the house others did
duty. In the east room, sombre with
its drawn shades and dim-burning
lights and its heavy black casket IN
me centre of the room, the guard OF
honor watched over the dead. Mem
bers of the Loyal Legion and the G.
A. r. performed this sad duty, silently
giving way to others every two hours.
At the head of the casket stood an ar
tilleryman and sailor. At the foot
were a cavalryman and a marine. All
were at parade rest, These watchers
were relieved every half hour.
GRIEF STRICKEN WIDOW.
Mrs. Mckinley had retired by ten
o'clock and at that hour all the private
apartments in the White House were
locked for the night. There were no

way to day without incident having
broken its sorrow.
