Mr.. Carnegie likes to talk to tall
men. Pittsburg friends say that they
have known him to deliberately
scrape up acquaintance with repre-
sentatives Of the 6-feet-aud-over class
for no other reason in the world than
to ask them how they managed to
grow tall. Mr.. Carnegie has never
got over his boyhood ambition to be
big man physically. He once said
to friend apropos Of this disappcint-
ment: People tell me that I'm big
man. But I'm not as big as I'd like
to be. Look at me-"

Academy of Music last evening before a
large and appreciative audience. 1t has
been several years since the attraction has
appeared in this city, and during this time
the play has been improved upon, notably
In the scenic effects. The story of the play
is an interesting one and it keeps it's au-
d1ence in state of continual expectancy
for the developments of it's progress While
the climaxes are not of the real sensational
type, yet they are Of a sort that arouse en-
thusiasm. The scene showing East river at
He'll Gate is a picturesque and natural
one: The river is represented by a large
tank upon the stage containing many thou
sand gallons of water, upon which boats
ply to and fro. Annie Ward Tiffany por
trays the role of Biddy Roman, and adds
much humor to the production.

Columbia Theater.

An obviously friendly gathering saw
Miss Bertha Galland in Paul Kester's
decentralization" of Mr.. MAJORS Dorothy
Vernon of Haddon Hail. at the Colurn bia
Theater last night Miss Galland has her
own conception of the part. She appar-
emily believes that Dorothy was something
real cute with baby gggle and an in
fantile expression, needing only pinafore
and short socks to complete the illusion
TO use nursery expression, she played
horse with her role nearly all the time
and evoked many a litter from her ecstatic
hearers. Mr.. Kester has written a pIay.
1t would be injustice to him to regard it as
merely dramatiZ1tion. 1t is a sort of EliZ-
abethan age Romeo and Juliet" There is
a quarrel between two houses, and the girl
of course, is in love with the scion of the
hoStlles. Transplant the immortal love
story of Verona to Derbyshire England,
and you have Mr.. Kesters play, with the
exception that the latter ends happily and
the ofsFztragedies are those committed by
the heroine, with her lines as the victims
There is not much humor in Romeo and
Juliet, it must be admitted, and there
was not in Mr.. Kester's play until Miss
Galland undertook to supply the deficit
Unfortunately, her idea of the humorous
runs to carlcature, and Il burlesque is the
result. 1t must be confessed that at times
1t is somewhat funny to see all the other
members of the cast taking their roles Sc
Miss Gailand airily valves the conventions
and proceeds, perhaps not deliberately, to
make her part ridiculous. For instance it
is, to say the least, extraordinary for q
heroine to MUNICH an apple while playing a
love scene. And when he asks, tenderly,
My love, why do you weep" she replies
Because l am so unhappy" every one
thought she was going TO say so hungry"
When Miss Galland was not portraying
the Juvenile she was, unfortunately, sug-
gestive of the virago READERS of the book
had no idea that Dorothy was anything
like that
Miss Galland has surrounded herself with
capable people. Frank Lascoe and Kate
Denim Wilson are of course well known for
much creditable work. May Robson has
dropped light roles for that of Queen Eliza
beth. Isabel Richards plays Mary Stuart.
To those who have seen Ristori and Janau-
schek, last nights portrayal of the two
queens was not only pitiful but painful. The
male roles were generally weak. Mr.. Kester
introduced a character of his own-hunch-
back jester who says II do not KEN" and
talks other Scotch with a Nebraska accent
Not single character has been transferred
faithfully from the book by Mr.. Kester. The
characters he has substituted common
place when they are not absurd.
Miss Galland was called out after every
fall of the curtain. and after the third act
briefly but graciously said she was very
glad her hearers were so well pleased.
