auditorium when Madga and her aunt in
dulge in their little spats and also dur
ing the visit of the grand ladies of the
town, with the wife of the general at
their head. The lines are mostly rugged
literature instead of brilliant dialogue;
but the characters. while strongly drawn,
fail to appeal strongly to such a gathering
as was attracted TO the Columbia last
night, principally through the clever adver-
Using that heralded the appoach of this
English actress, before whom Chicago
capitulated in no time. and who was given
but lukewarm reception in Gotham.
There is nothing in "Magda" to create
any undue amount of enthusiasm. and
the element of society represented in the
audience regretted, very evidently, that
1t had no opportunity to view sartorial
creations instead of listening to the stolid
Sudermann speeches.
One thing that particularly impressed
the majority OF the assem5lage was the
TACT that. contrary to general belief. Mrs.
Campbell is not a beautiful woman. True,
she has wonderfully expressive eyes of
black and a profusion of hair of the same
color; she is lssome. even if she does
not move about the stage with all the
grace that one might desire. but she is
not beautiful by any means. Her voice
is rich and mellifiuous and is mostly
heard in a monotone. but when called
upon to scale the heights of passionate
utterance one of the principal reasons for
the success of the actress is made APP
parent.
An Excellent Company.
One of the best things in connection
with the performance of "Magda" is the
general excellence of the supporting com
pany Mr.. G. S. Titheradge makes a
sturdy Schwartzc. with his stern beliefs
as to the obedience due a father by his
children. Mr.. Titheradge's entire work is
characterized by an intellectual apprecia-
ton of the part that makes it take rank
with that of the star. Heffterdingk, the
pastor of the little town church, is ex-
cellently played by Daniel Mccarthy, and
Charles E Bryant makes Lieut.. Max Won
Wendlowski an impetuous. dashing, manly
young fellow. Lucie Milne is a demure,
obedient little sister to Magda, while the
stepmother is showed as lovable, sweet
tempered old lady by Florence Montgom-
cry The Won Keller of Herbert Warins
is pitched in an excellent key, and he
contributes one of the notable bits of work
of the performance.
Tonight Mrs. Campbell will be senn as
Paula Tanqueray in The Second Mrs
Tanqueray" in which she first attracted
the attention of London's critics and the
atregoers. and which by many is thought
to be her best role.
