MONTE CRISTO" is
BETTER THAN EVER

James O'Neill and Monte Cristo"
pleased a large audience at the Wor-
cester Theatre last night, as this COM
bination always pleases an audience.
He is the same O'Neill as youthful as
when, 20 years ago, he first appeared
as Edmund Dantes, and he speaks the
same lines with the same voice and
gesture. But the production is differ
ent. Last season Liebler & Co. set
about to give Monte Cristo' a setting
that would make theatregoers talk,
and the company succeeded. Last
season the play was seen only in the
larger cities, for the expense of moving
it was something enormous. This sea-
son smaller places are being visited,
and while there is some difficulty at
times in getting some of the massive
scenery on the stage, still the produc-
ton is well worth seeing.
The famous Chateau DIFF scene has
been enlarged and made more realistic
and the scene in which Dantes reaches
the rock after escaping from prison
is realistic in the extreme. The storm
is shown perfectly, with forked light
ming and the tossing sea. The conser-
vatory and ball room of the Hotel de
Morcerf is also a magnificent settiW
and while the size of the stage at the
Worcester Theatre was rather against
the full effect of the scene, it was
sufficiently impressive to draw around
of applause from the audience. The
last act. showing the forest of Fon-
tainebleau is an example of what we'll
applied lighting effects will do. The
trees of the forest are made to CLEAN
with ice crystals and the snow-covered
ground to sparkle in the early morning
light of the scene.
The company supporting Mr.. O'Neill
is one of the best he has ever had and
in no particular is it incompetent to in
terpret the story. There are nearly 50
people engaged in the piece and the
principals are all especially good

A REUNION OF IOWA TROOP!
will be Held This Summer.

A commendable movement has been
started for holding reunion of all Iowa
war veterans and Cedar Rapids has al.
ready made bid for this gathering. j.
o. Stewart Of that city is secretary, and
is quite right in insisting that the COM
ing summer will be the most appropri.
ate time for the reunion. 1t is now just
forty years this spring, since the First
Iowa regiment was formed, and the idea
of holding the reunion this year of all
the veterans of Hawkeye regiments
started with a number of the leading
members of the First Iowa. Mr.. Stew
art relates that when the First Iowa was
enlisted during the spring of 1861, they
went for three months, and it was gem
orally believed the rebellion would be
crushed to earth before the expiration of
that time. The confederates were to be
an easy foe to conquer, it was thought.
and then it was that so many spoke of
going down south and whipping the
rebs before breakfast" President Lin
coin had made his call for troops, and
from coast to coast rang the echo of the
voice of mighty people: 1--WE are
coming, Father Abraham, three hum
dIed thousand strong" 1t does not
seem as though that was forty years ago
this summer, does it? We are growing
old, comrades, and the suggestion Of
this reunion brings that fact home to us
allin a startling manner. Outside of
the annual encampment of the Iowa de-
partment Of the Grand Army of the Re-
public no large gathering of Iowa troops
has been held in recent years, and Sec
rotary Stewart is anxious this shall be a
memorable occasion for the veterans.
The reunion ought to be held in Des
Moines, the center of the state and the
point most easily reached from all parts
of Iowa. Iowa State REGISTER.
