Robert B. ManteI, a representative
of the romantic school of drama, was
rendered a cordial reception last night
at the Grand. The house saw him in
THE Dagger and the Cross" and was
not sparing in it's approval.
Mr.. Mantell has been too frequent q
visitor to st. Paul to criticize, at this
late date, his work in the school he
has SO persiStently associated himself
with. He is, on the whole. an adequate
actor. His Bernardo Roubillac in the
Dagger and the Cross the attraction
last night, was full of fervor. His
confession to the priest with it's caus-
tic fling at the libertine, Giovanni Zil-
letto, the despoiler of his home and
the wrecker of his peace Of mind. was
a pretty piece Of work and brought
him vigorous curtain call.
In the selection of a company, whose
talents will not interfere with the emf
hence that the central figure always
demands, Mr.. Mantell has only followed
precedent. His support is by no means
standard, but it will suffice. Repertoire
is a tax at it's best, and in Mr.. Man.
tells support it is seen in the use Of
ineXperience. where maturity alone
should prevail Whitened locks of ar
tificia1 make do not always smother
the vigor of youth. This was seen
last night in the case of two characters
whose looks and actions belied their
makeup.
Like Mr. Mantell. Grand theatergoers
welcome an old friend in Miss Marie
Booth Russell. She is the principal
support and last night gave an ade-

sculptor and libertine, one would per-
haps demand a polished subtlety that
harsh exposure alone would make plain
but A. T. Yelvington proclaimS his
meaning with frightful bluntness. His
work last night brought him an abun-
dance of the Villains portion-hisses.
OF the remainder Of the company,
George W. Hammond as the village
constable, c. F. Montaine as Father
LorenZa, Miss Grace Cahill as Mary
Talbot and Miss Minnie Monk as the
nurse are among the best. Miss Monk
