Especial TO The NewyorS Tribune by French CahleJ
Downright: 1903: BY Tribune Assocatien)
London, Feb &c, l a. m.-Cecil Raleighs ne"
play, "A Queen Of Society," produced at the
Adelphi Theatre last night, is a lurid meio-
drama of type that made that theatre popu-
lar in bygone days. The heroine of the piece
is a woman who becomes weary of an lndul-
gent husband and social influence. and contem-
plates elopement with a needy adVehtufer'
utterly unaware of the fact that he is plotting
to secure her fortune. At critical moment,
however the villain, who had killed his old
sweetheart in order to screen his past lie. is
unmasked. and the erring wife. full of contrl-
ton, obtains forgiveness. The performance was
cordially received by a full house Mrs. Cecil
Raleigh artistically portrayed the emotions of
a foolish. scornful and discontented queen of
society, and Miss Vane Featherstone, in thrill
ing murder scene, acted with great power,
while Edward O'Neill was highly effective as the
villain of the play. I. N. F.

THE DRAMA.
MADISON Square Theatre.
"THE EARL OF PAWTUCkET."

A clever and amusing farcical comedy. called
The Earl of Pawtucket," by Mr.. Augustus Thomas.
was successfully presented last night at the Mad-
son Square Theatre, where. doubtless it will main
tain itself, in buoyant prosperity for the rest of
the present dramatic season. Mr.. Thomas-to
whom the public is indebted for many substantial
pleasures including the beautiful Alabama and
the rugged, picturesque Arizona" has, in this in
stance. devised an ingenious, comical plot, which,
while based on radical improbabIlity. is never
theless sufficiently plausible to win a mirthful
credence and this he has developed by means OF
incident that is consistently ludicrous and dia-
logue that IS easy. spright1y and terse. The CEN
trail theme is the humorous plight Of
English nobleman who, masduerading IN New
York under the borrowed name OF an absent Ameri-
friend eventually finds himself required TO
pay arrears Of alimony due to that friends di-
vorced wife, and in various other ways is drolly
compromised because of his fictitious identity. The
English nobleman,-assumed by Mr.. Lawrence
DOrsay, whose acting the King. in "A Royal
Family was SO much enjoyed and is so pleasantly
remembered,-s a formal, ceremonious. polished,
known Lord Cardington; in New-York styled
Montgomery Putnam; and the perplexity of this
peer amid the tangles of circumstance IN which
the play. Miss Bessie Tyree appeared as Harriet
Fordyce. the divorced wife of Montgomery Put
ram, and the object of the disguised Lord Card
ingtons honorable sut-it being. of course, under
stood that the nobIeman is ignorant of her do
mestic history. Both players exceedingly well
fitted. The situations laughable; the spirit is
refined; the picture of manners is measurably
truthful; and the total effect is impairment OF
innocent pleasure. w. W.

DIR. LLOYD DECLINES BISHOPRIC.
He Feels that He Can Do More Efficient
Work OH Board of Missions.

The Rev. DR.. Arthur s. Lloyd. secretary of the
Protestant Episcopal Board OF Domestic and For
eign Missions, has declined the call TO the Bsh-
opric OF Mississippi, to which he was elected on
January 20 He informed The Mississippi clergy
Wednesday. DR.. Lloyd was out of town yesterday,
but at his home it said that he felt he could
do efficient work III his present place and
that he better off there.
The board of managers of the Domestic and
Foreign Missionary Society, of which DR.. Lloyd IS
secretary, will no doubt heartily welcome his de-
cison. He has been in his present place for about
three years, and has been markedly successful in
a work which requires peculiar talent possessed
by few. The board had great difficulty in hling
the place when it made vacant by the death OF
the Rev. DIR. William S. Langford. DR.. Lloyd,
who at the time of his election was rector OF st
Iuke's Norfolk loath to accept the place, and
did only after much urging from the managers.
