New York, April 7,-Before his depar-
ture for home, Mr.. George Il.
Blair closed with Joseph Ha-
worth, to create the role OF
"Corlanton" the Book Of Mormon"
drama by o. U. Bean. Also with Mr..
ST. Clair a member of Frank Bangs
company, who played the part Of the
tester in the Francesca da Rimini"
production. All this means very inn
portant step towards the success OF
MIR. Beams play. And so the New
York managers are thinking, for It is
well known in the profession that Ha-
worth stands among the first Of ro-
mantle actors; though he may be lack
ing in the subtleness and fnesse OF
Kyrle Bellew, who Is so great an ex-
ponent of the same school, Haworth
makes up for any lack Of that in his
wonderful power and magnetism, to
make and hold a climax; his talents in
that direction, SO well remembered In
the christian" when supporting Viola
Allen, his success was the despair OF
her managers, who each night had TO
impress John Storm with the fact that
he was not being starred, but that
Glory Quayle was II must be very
gratifying to Mr. Bean when an actor
u Haworth's reputation will discard
the two strong roles he has been asked
to create, and take up the part OF
"COrianton." Among managers II IS
being much discussed, and no less than
iye of them are industriously reading
the Book OF Mormon with all the en-
ihusiasm of new converts; one Of them
remarked In the writer's hearing; III

tinue his study, and assured that he
would find more than one subject
around which he could weave an in

Emma Lucy Gates final ap-
pearance under the management Of

delphla, and from all accounts she made
a yertable triumph. After singing the
