IMPE RIAL THEATRE.

East Lynne that play OF trouble and
tears. is familiar 10 most theatregoers by
reason OF It's frequent production by the
various popular priced stock companies
which have camped dawn on the city In
the past few years. but the production
given the play by Miss Laura Biggar and
her excellent company at the Imperial
this week Is a revelation TO many who
have seen II before.
II Is so very familiar by reason OF It's
frequent production that slight reference
to the story need he made. but for those
ladies who reyel in sadness and a good
hearty cry East Lynne Is uneoualled on
the American stage.
Much interest was manifested In the
work OF Laura Blggar, whose work was
familiar 10 Providence audiences several
years ago and her family troubles as ex-
plotted in the Sunday papers added Inter
est on the part OF others 30 that her FIRST
appearance as Lady Isabel was greeted
with n ripple OF applause.
II Is far cry from the widow In
Hoyt's "A Trip TO Chinatown to the
lacrymose, jealous, erring heroine OF East
Lynne but Miss Bggar's conception OF
the part was a revelation to many and
she proved herself equal to the rather ex-
acting role.
Her work in the earlier part Of the play
lacked I'm spontaneity but after she khad
expressed her Jealous fear that her hus-
bands affections had left her and she
left home with the nonchalant and un-
scrupulous rake, Sir Francis Levison, she
plays with a realism and depth OF feeling
that suits the ideals OF the most exact
ing.
During the play she wears a number OF
stunning gowns and I'm acts three and
Ave displays a handsome negligee.
The others OF the company give harmo-
NOUS interpretations OF their parts, VIII

was screamingly funny and the audience
laughed themselves tired.
Josephine Sabel, the American chanson-
ette, sang a number OF character songs
with a great deal OF yt1city and much
OF the style OF the Partisan music hall,
and judging from the applause given her
seemed 10 be well liked. The Three
Nevarros gave capital act. Their
work is easily among the best on the
stage today and Is always marked by
novelty, grace and agility. They make
very pleasing stage appearance and
deserve the appreciative plaudits given
them.
Pongo and Leo gave fine aerial
comedy act winning as many laughs as
they did applause, and Jones and sutton
colored entertainers. pleased with their
ragtime songs and dances. Mr.. and Mrs.

shown on any stage. will be the chief

Six Pretty Maden the Petite Forodora Company

again and again TO the stage and repeat
this number and even after the card an
nouncing the next act was shown, the
applause continued No prettier or more
popular musical number has ever been
shown on the Keith stage. and no one
should miss seeing II.
one OF the biggest hits Of the entire
propram was scored by those two favor
ties, Gertrude Mansfield and Caryl VIII
bur, among the very foremost sketch ar
lists I'm vaudeville today. They offered a
new sketch called "6l Prospect Street"
which for laugh provoking purposes has
not been excelled this season. 1t tells OF
one Of the most laughable cases OF mis-
taken Identity yet pictured on the stage,
and keeps the audience I'm an uproar from
the opening line 10 the final curtain.
Miss Mansfield and Mr.. Wilbur are both
exceptionally clever artista, and one OF
the most delightful features OF their little
act Is that both Of them have excellent
opportunities 10 exploit their abilities.
Miss Mansfield looked as charming as
usual. and showed an intelligence OF con-
ception and artistic finish IN her portrayal
OF the demure little Lucy Dobbs that ar
reused the heartiest enthusiasm Mr..
Wilbur has never done better work. His
depletion OF the two strongly contrasting
roles emphasized this clever young mans
versatility, and it is hard to say when
the audience liked him better as the
scape-grace college student with his
lengthy slang vocabulary or tho earnest
young clergyman. They We're given sew
eral genuine curtain calls az the end Of
their act and scored one Of the hits or
the bill
Another attractive feature was the
unique little character work done by
Lotta Gladstone. called The Country
Girl" Miss Gladstone has style quite
different from any seen ~ Kelth's. and
proved genuinely pleasant surprise
Her laugh Is extremely infectious and
before she had been ON the stage a min
ute she had everyone laughing with her
She was given tremendous and we'll
merited round OF applause and recalled
several times
a novelty In the line Of acrobatics was
