Martin Harvey and his company
have sailed for England. Mr.. Har
vey's first tour in this country has re
suited in winning high appreciation
from the most intelligent playgoers
for his fine art and unusual abilities
Indeed, it would be only a fine ar
tist who could overcome the many dis.
advantages under which he has la.
bored. In the first place. he was han
dieapped by poor management Men
who are versed in exploiting leg shows
are not qualified by experience, or
taste or anything else to handle an
actor Of Mr. Harvey's quality. Fur
thermore his management stupidly
brought kim over in an old play that
had been worn out in the first class
theaters and had been given at cheap
prices by most of the stock com
panies.
In spite Of these handicaps Mr. Har-
vey has laid a permanent foundation
for the popularity and prosperity that
he will undoubtedly win under hap
pier circumstances in the future.
