as has marked the course traversed by
that sterling romance, The Prisoner
of Zenda," and fewer plays have wealth
cred the tempestuous sea of criticism
with such triumphant serenity. I'm
fortunately at this time many projects
are launched upon the dramatic ocean
that in a very brief period become YER
liable derelicts that not only prove a
menace to the progress of worthy and

Tim Murphy.

Tim Murphy.
The instant and cordial recognition
of Tim Murphy's artistic triumph in
1.-THE Carpetbagger, which he produc-
ed last spring at the Fourteenth Street
Theater New York, was one of the
most pleasing episodes in the past
t eatrical season. Nearly every critic
in New York praised Mr.. Murphy and
the play in generous terms, and there
was much marveling among the gen.
eral public over the fact that so de-
lightful an attraction should have
stayed out of the city for so long. Mr..
Murphy's impersonation of Governor
GRANGE, the carpetbagger, is the finest
work that he has ever done, and GER
tainly ranks well with the work of the
most famous actors of the day. The
character is one that requires skillful
treatment at the hands of the player,
since it develops completely and log
ically during the course of the pay.
GRANGE in the last scene is a far diff
ferent person from the GRANGE of the
first scene, and that Mr. Murphy
brought this out forcibly proves him
to be an actor not only of theatrical
accomplishments but of sound mental
qualities as well. Mr.. Murphy will
present The Carpetbagger" here with
the original cast Saturday matinee and
night, May 18th, at the Opera House.
Seat sale opens Friday morning.
