Richard Mansfield left town last Sat
urday night in no very good humor. His
production OF Julius Caesar probably
paid expenses at the Herald Square, but
our actors performance OF Marcus
Brutus fell Nat with both critics and
audiences Indeed melancholy to re-
late, most of the former gave their
greatest applause tOthe Cassius Of Jo-
seph Haworth5 while most Of the lat
ter expended their enthusiasm on Ar
thur Forests Mare Antony, As for the
star himself he got more Kicks than Ia
pence for his irresolute and decadent
Brutus, a performance that puzzled ev-
gence, and disappointed even Mr.. Mans
fields most ardent admirers. Further
more, during this engagement no
furore was aroused. Generally Mr.,
Mansfield comes TO town like an army
with banners and fills columns IN our
newspapers with his opinions or vag-
aries. This time he received no more
than the customary attention accord
ed to an actor Of good standing, and
his production Of the Shakespeareau
tragedy, on which, 1t is said he ex-
pended $4,000, was lndifferently re-
ceived. Richard Is disappointed in US,
but no more than we are In him for TINS
time he has done nothing TO provoke
discussion Much less fuss has been
made over him than over Mr. Sothern's
Hamlet at the Garden, character
which on account Of his fixed and in
alterable mannerisms Mr.. Mansfield
does not dare to undertake, Yet Mr..
Sothern is not a growing chanticleer,
either. Two years ago when he intro
duced his melancholy Dane he was
modest. earnest and strenuous In ef-
fort. His Hamlet at that time was eN-
cellent but the praise which he earned
for it turned his head and presently
Sothern fell into all the errors against
which Hamlet warns the players In the
play. In comparison with the perform
ance he gave us two seasons ago his
new Hamlet Is harsh. unthinNng Vehe-
ment and unimpressive. Still, as you
may have noted In this correspondence,
the critics, In desire to make amends
for their first condemnation OF
his performance, applauded him
Justify. The public, however, did not
agree with the professional judges and
business has remained so light at the
Garden theatre that, at the end of this
week MIR. sothern shelves Shakespeare

for originally this actor was a good
Hamlet. and a good Hamlet need new

any player who can act this charac-

thought that his successor in the role
of Hamlet would be Sothern, but this
hope is now dssipated.

THE LOUISIANA PURCHASE.
Valuable Territory 1t Brought to the
United states.

Valuable Territory 1t Brought to the
United states.
The upper portion of the Louisiana
purchase was known as the territory Of
Louisiana. 1t comprised all that terri
tory north of the thrtythird degree of
latitude, eastward to the Mississippi
and westward and northward as far as
the undetermined boundaries Of the
newly acquired possessions might ex-
tend. South of this was the district of
Orleans, with it's seat of government
fixed at New Orleans. The cession Of
the upper part Of the purchase did not
take place until March TO- 1904, when,
having received the cession from the
Spanish, the French representative
handed it over to the agent of the Unit
ed States with very brief and simple
ceremony.
BY these unimpressive proceedings
the government Of the United States
was put in possession of territory with
in whose boundaries now flourish the
states of Louisiana, Arkansas, Missou-
ri, Kansas. Iowa, Nebraska, North Da-
kota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho,
Montana, the Indian Territory and
parts of the states OF Minnesota and
Colorado. The men who were the ac-
tive agents in the transfer of this
mighty land from one national jurisdic-
ton to another are well nigh forgotten
in the crowd and rush of later but not
less important events. BY this historic
purchase the seat OF mighty empire
was forever established. BY this pur-
chase the possibilities of developing
from the republic n world power were
strengthened. Under our benignant
rule comfort, luxury, prosperity and
every variety of material activity fill
the wide spaces In which our fathers
found only tracklcss wilderness. Com
mon gratitude bids us recall with ac-
claim the names of Jcfferf on, Living
ston and Monroe. who building better
than they knew, made this magnificent
transformation possible. Noah Brooks
