features Of metropolitan life in which
the charming actress appears partic-
ularly in her element
The Resurrection" at the Victoria,
Is Justifying the expectations of the
large success presaged for it. As an
intense character study Of rather ele-
mental emotions and character, 1t is
a great contrast to the modern society

an opportunity which she has thor
oughly realized.
The Bishops Move" at the Man
haitian theater, under the management
Of Mr.. James K. Hackett is a comedy
by John Oliver Hobbies (NIrs Craigie)
and Mr.. Murray Carson. The play
does not deal with religious matters
although bishop, the part taken by
Mr.. w. II. Thompson, is the leading
character.
The play is brilliant with epigram
and humor, and in the character of the
bishop Mr.. Thompson has the most
congenial role Of his career. He rep
resents the kindly, benevolent, yet
shrewd old priest, whose heart, while
devoted to the best interest of his
church, is full of charity for the in
terests and faflings of humanity.
The character of the Duchess of

disposition, which, combined with her
beauty and handsome toilets, make her
altogether fascinating parsonage.

diences that attend this theater.

Marie Cahfll has stepped well to the
front siRce her appearance in Nancy
Brown" For a number of years Miss
Cahtll has been a Broadway star in
| fact, although she never before has
been more that featured in metropoli-
tan productions, but Manager Daniel
V. Arthur, with supreme faith in her

are to the effect that his Judgment has
not been misplaced.
