Macbeth" the Herman-Warde company
closed its short Omaha engagement last
night. Mr.. Herman assumed the title role
and acquitted himself we'll. giving a schol-
arly and in many ways a satisfactory in
depreciation Of the dificult part. The chief
interest in the performance. though, rested
on the work Of Miss Roberts in the role

praise for an excellent presentation OF the
part. She departs almost entirely from the
traditional woman Of unfettered ambitions,

throne" and max of Lady Macbeth a

A press dispatch from New York states
