has to her credit record of unprece-
denied success in this comedy. In

Old in Philadelphia she played to the
biggest audiences and receipts in the
history of dramatic entertainments in
this country; in Boston the fremont
house was so crowded that the orches-
ira was put under the stage. and more
recently, in Chicago, Miss Crosman
aroused degree of enthusiasm seldom
witnessed in that city. 1t is univer-
SALLY admitted that in THE Sword OF
TIE King" Miss Crosman has excelled
ali former achievements. No such
praise has ever been bestowed on any
artistic as has been given TO Miss Cros-
mau in this comedy. IL is conceded |
that as Philippe Drayton Miss Ctos-
man does the best work Of her stage
career. She reveals in comedy and
furthermore displays her versatility in
strong emotional portrayals. Miss
Crosman is supported by one Of the
best companies that ever surrounded a
star, while the play is mounted in the
highest degree of excellence Known to
the stage. The ertire production is
new and costly, having been especial
ly made for the recent engagement at
the Grand opera house, Chicago.
