Lafayette Company Revivcs .Thc
Great Unknown,

Last night. as If in relaxation from the
arduous work entailed BY the production
Of Quo Fadis." and as proof of the cana
biiities of stock company, the Lafay-
ette players presented .'.rhe Great Tn
known" comedy which had its initial
American presentation at Daly's Theatre
some years ago. 1t is a comedy. rure and
simple, and, unlike many pieces of the
same kind, has consistent plot. which
develops into one of the mos; entertain
ing and diverting stage stories seen at
the Lafayette this season. The title ap-
plies TO an unknown but much talked -of
authoress. and only in this does the name
have any connection with the play or its
plot But in forming two hours and a
half OF good, wholesome amusement. the
piece serves its purpose, and one could
ask little more.
White Whittlesey gives a consistent
portrayal of Ned Dreemer and William
Rednuonds Jeremiah Jarraway is m anus
ing picture OF foolish frivolous and i'm
pressionable old man. John T. Sullivan
is seen in the role of the 0'Donnell Don
an impetuous Irishman. and Frederic
Sullivan is conspicuous in the small role
of Tom Proude, the music teacher Lii
lian Lawrence is breezy and attractive
as Etna, whose girlish habit OF falling
into slang on every occasion proves Miss
Lawrence's work in The Great Tn
known is about the very best she has
offered since she became the leading
woman OF the Bellows company Antoin-
cite Walker makes a charming Pansy, and
Mrs. Thomas Barry quite fills the role OF
Aunt Penelope. The role OF Mrs Ara
bella JarraYsy was originally assigned to
Ellen Cummens, but she was unfortunate
enough to fall on the ice yesterday and
break her arm. which necessarily pre-
cluded the possibility OF her appearance
with the company last night. Eva Whit
ford, local girl, who has assumed small
parts on several occasions at the Lafay-
cite this season, was given the role late
yesterday afternoon, and played it very
creditably. Miss Whitford is an unusually
clever young woman, and her success last
night was a matter of congratulation.

s.The Gamblers Daughter PIenscs
Academy Audience.

With The Gamblers Daughter" the
Academy of Music reverted last night to
the general policy of that house In pre-
senting popular melodramas, and the
large audience in attendance testified its
approval of the play with frequent and
sincere applause. The piece is by owen
Davis. The story IS conventional. though
interesting. and recites the usual tale of
villainy against the apparently weaker
force of virtue.
There are any number of thrilling situ-
ations and stirring climaXes, which never
fail to find favor with the Academy au-
diences, and the love story which the
author has provided is distinctly charm
ing one. With all the sensational fea-
turcs, there is an abundance of comedy
which runs through the entire play and
lightens the story to marked degree.
Elsie Crescy enacts the title role, and
last night scored distinct hit in the
part. She is an attractive looking young
woman and possesses much ability. The
role calls for emotional as well as lighter
work, and Miss Crescy gives a commenda-
BILE performance. depicting the light and
shade of the character very well. The
other members OF the company assist in
giving a very complete performance.

HIS VIEWS UNCHANGED.
Representative StiIl Find President
for Cnbau Tariff Reduction.

As the result of a conference with Pres
ident Roosevelt at the White House yes
terday morning, Representatives Grosve-
nor and Payne, of the House Committee
on Ways and Means, learned that Mr..
Roosevelt's views are unchanged in re-
gard to making some concession in the
existing tariff schedule on Cuban sugar
and tobacco. They are. like nearly all
other members of the House. puzzled as
to how to make this reduction without
throwing wide open the entire subject of
tariff revision.
Representative Grosvenor carried un-
der his arm a great leather case, filled
with documents. which he showed the
President. About the only plan that has
been presented which offers any element
of escape from the precipitation of tariff
revision is the adoption of the cartel
system. This provides for rebate or
bounty disbursement to the planters in
accordance with their respective produc-
ton.
