Leah LeSSi in East Lynne"

Year after year new productions are
made upon the stage, pushing aside tho
success of the past, but with all the
efforts of thirty years, nothing has cast
a shadow on the brilliant record Of East
Lynne"
AS a literary work the play is not above
the ordinary, but the theme is far and
away more powerful than any problem yet
set to dramatic lines.
Lucille Western, Laura Keene. Julia
Dean. and Ada Gray, great actresses that
they were, whose ambitions moved them
to the classics of the stage, had TO bow
TO the popular opinion and accept the YER
dict of the world that East Lynne" was
their masterpiece. and while unpre .en-
tious companies Of players have found
in it the most grateful play of their re-
pertoire, the greatest artists of the stage
have in turn descended from the throne
OF the legitimate to assume the simple
roles of this wonderful story.
An excellent company. headed by Miss
Leah Lessi will play East Lynne" at the
Academy OF Music this week. Miss Lessi
appeared in the same piece AZ the Acade-
my about year ago AID created a first
class impression.

Julia in America. but in this statement
he is probably mistaken Miss Riddle was
the Julia to James Sheridan Knowles
Master Walter, when he appeared in this
country. Miss Riddle. by the way. was
the mother of Kate Field, the authoress
and journalist.
John N. Kingdom. in his edition of the

The play. indeed. has been given so
often on the American stage that it would

MT. Clarkc's Matinee Receptions.

Harry Corson Clarke. who is playing a
special spring engagement at the Colum-
hia Theater, introduced new idea TO the
Thursday afternoon after the performance
Of Why Smith Left Home"
The members of the Clarke company
acted as hosts TO the large audience and
an enjoyable half hour was spent by the
actor people and the audience in getting
personally acquainted. Much interest was
displayed by the patrons Of the theater in
the reception, which is tc be repeated
every Thursday during the remainder of
Mr. Clarke's local engagement.
One OF the most popular members of
the Clarke organization Is Miss Lottie AL
ter. At the Thursday reception Miss AL
ter attracted more genuine enthusiasm
and interest among the audience than any
Of her associates. and she was constantly
surrounded by a dozen CT more of women
folk. each of whom was particularly de-
sirous Of seeing how the actress looked
T!th her war .ailt" en-.
Miss Alter has shared the successes of
the Broadhurst comedies with lir. Clarke.
Last season she was prominent member
of Henrietta Crosman's company, playing
. Mistress Neil,' and Just before coming
TO Washington with Mr. Clarke she par
ticiDated in the presentation OF Maud
Banks play. which was given fer the ben
eft of the Professional 'woman's League,
OF New York city. at wallack's TheateT.
and which proved quite a success.
Miss Alter has been iikened by many
to Lotta Crabtree, known to the theater-
goers of the country principally by her
first name. Miss Alter has frequently
been told that she could tour the country
in the repertoire used by Lotta and make
a fortune.
Five years ago a Kansas City theatrical
manager offered to star her, but exac.vu
the promise that she should refrain from
marrying for a period OF five years. Miss
Alter imagined that this was too much
TO ask OF any pretty. talented yoGng won
an, and fatty refused. although she AYERS
she did not have any idea at the time of
becoming even engaged to any lucky young
man, and has not since.
Only" she explains the matter. "I did
not want TO put myself on record as being
opposed TO the matrimonial state for such
a long time as FIVE years
Next season Miss Alter will be the
leading woman with a well-known acto-.
who will make bid for stellar honors in

Mr. and Mrs. James I. Powers.

The specialties offered by James T.
Powers and Rachel Booth in THE Mes
senger Boy are among the distinct hits
of the imported musical comedy. Local
theatergoers, as well as those OF other
cities. have become so accustomed to see
ing these two clever people together that
IL would seem strange IL Mr.. Powers ap-
peared minus his charming wife. for in
private life Rachel Booth is Mrs. James
r Powers.
Miss Booth is dainty bit Of fenininity.
with sweet, spirituelle personality that
is exceedingly attractive to an audience.
She reminds one OF piece of Dresden
china. delicate aad rare, with the han
die with care" mark plainly visible at all
tines. Her work is always characterized
~ grace and refinement. and in the scenes
with her husband she shares the honors
equally.
Mr. and Mrs. Powers are quite as ideal
of the stage as before the footlights. or
even more so. for when away from the
theater they find the time too short to be
always falling OUT with each other. and
the serenity OF their home life is a by
word in the theatrical profession.
when seen at the theater last night by
a Times interviewer, Miss Booth had just
come of the stage, with the queenly air
that characterizes the speech wherein she
informs Tommy Bang that she will al
ways be his inferior"
Il am almost afraid to talk" she said.
for have to say so many OF those fool
ish things that / may say some for pub
lication. The role l am playing now is
very much like Alice in THE Runaway
Girl" and so | felt like meeting an old
friend when saw it. Ever since the pro
duction of Hoyt's "A Tin Soldier" have
bccn associated with Mr.. Powers in all
the plays in which he has appeared. We
always play opposite rolls, and. being ia

very easy to work up our specialties.

The Young Mrs. Winthrop"

Harry Corson Clarke still continues his
engagement at the Columbia. where ne
Will present Young Mrs. Winthrop" as
this weeks bill. This celebrated play of
Bronson Howard's is constructed on more
serious lines than any in which Mr..
Clarke has before appeared during his
present engagement in Washington.
1t is a touching story OF domestic love.
misunderstanding, and ultimate reconcile
alton wrought into exceptionally fine
dramatic form.
The strained relations between Douglas
Winthrop and his wife. Constance. are
apparent at the very beginning of the
play. Douglas. beset with business cares
of a grave nature. neglects his wife with
out explaining the nature of his anxiety.
She in turn seeks to find compensation
for her home loss in a round of social
gayeties. The breach between the Young
couple is widened by the sudden death of
their only child, and final separation
must have resulted but for TIE skillful in
tervention of Buxton Scott. their family
lawyer and old confidential friend.
The scene in which this genial, keen
sighted, kind hearted old bachelor effects
the reconciliation between his unhappy
clients is one of rare beauty and subtlety,
revealing at once Buxton Scotts mastery
of the art Of pleading and of the inner
workings OF the human heart.
The beautiful love story of Edith
Winthrop, the sweet blind sister Of Con-
stance, and Herbert. the nephew OF Doug
las, affords several bright and sympathetic
scenes, while Mrs. Dick Chetwyn, a type
Of the good hearted likeable dashing
woman OF the world, furnishes some very
clever comedy work.
Mr.. Clarke will play Buxton Scott, a

The members Of the chorus of THE Mes

who figured in the piece as members Of
Londons smart set was Miss Ethel Pow

Of Francis Powers. who occupied the posi-

The Regular Season at the National Brought
to a Close With the Engagement of The
Messenger Bou"--Harru CoTson Clarke
Gives "Why Smith Left Home" With a
Good Deal of Artistic Success -Vaude-
vile to Be Resumed at Chase's. :. :.

The theatrical year at the National was
practically brought 10 close last night
with the termination of the engagement
of "The Messenger Boy" given by James
T. Powers and an exceptionally good
company. Mr.. Rapley's patrons will en-
10y special productions of ''The Hunch-
back" by Julia Marlowe, and THE Lady
of Lyons" with Mary Mannering as
Pauline, and Kyrle Bellew as Melnotte,

The season at the National has been
one of the most successful in the history
OF the house, and during the year many
of the most important of the native as
well as foreign stars have appeared be-
fore the National clientele.
"The Messenger Boy proved to be i'm
mensely diverting, and while the musical
selections were not so good as usually
found in the imported gayety musical
comedies, the company gave most en-
5oyable performance. The attendance was
large throughout the week.
At the Columbia Harry Corson Clarke
gave a frst-class presentation of the
Broadhurst farce, why Smith Left
Home" The reduction in prices at the
Columbia did not have the desired effect
OF crcwding the playhouse, and notwith-
standing the fact that the work OF Mr.
Clarke and his band of players was of the
dollar-and -a-half order the theater was
not filled at any time.
Chase's enjoyed one Of the biggest weeks
of the year with burlesque company,
shea's Fiddle -dee-dee" as the attrac-
tion.
The production Of 'Joan of Arc at the

that Messrs Morgan Sherwood and George
