MISS KATHERINE WILLARD.

Miss Katherin Willard appeared before
an enthusiastic audience in The Power
Behind the Throne" at the Crawford last
night While Miss Willard has the dis
advantage OF not being as handsome as
some stars who have appeared in Wichita
she does have the advantage of being
perfectly natural in her acting, and one
will not forget her. She comes out
well in the strong passages.
In the scene in which she writes at the
diction of the secretary in order to save
her mother from the pillory and then re-
fuses 10 sign her declaration, she carries
the audience with her completely.
The play it self is not all that could be
desired. 1t is after Schiller's Love and
Intrigue" and bree thes the freedom of
the German people. Parts of the play
are decidedly not what the plays usually
sents and very plainly bits of modern
life that are hidden from public gaze.
but which too often play an important
part in the affairs of men.
Not the least feature of the play is
the elegant scenery which ranks with the
best shown here this season.
Miss Wizards strongest acting is in the
third scene, where she comes to III
grand ball at the command of the du-
chess and plays the mistress of Count
Won Oberfels to deceive her lover in order
to save her father. The climax shows the
strength and power of her acting to ad-
vantage. Her strongest supporters are
Wright Lorimer as Baron Ronald, and
Richard Nesmith as Heller the presi-
dents secretary. Maud i Irand as the
duchess deserves special mention for her
splendid support. Miss Durand is an act
ress Of much ability. especially in the
heavy roles. as was shown by her work
last night.
Altogether it was one of the most COM
plete performances given at the Craw
ford this season. The scenery was new
and beautiful, the costumes were grand,
the star was a fine emotional actress and
she does not overshadow her support.
The company is well balanced one. Miss
Willard has been secured for return
da te in March.

by stimulating the liver, opening the
