"HAMLET" AT HYPERION.
COMING APPEARANCE OF WILL
 HAM BARSTOW SMITH.
New Haven Man Who GViII Probably be Recognized as Great Tragedlan-Has 'Fine Supporting Company.

New Haven Man Who WtIl Probably be Recognized as a Great TragedIan-Has sFine Supporting Company.
 New Haven has not given to the the atrical world any artist of great note but in William Barstow Smith she bids fair to have a representative on the stage that will do honor to his univer- sity city and bring fame to the actor, himself. MT. Smith, who appears at the Hyperion, Friday evening, in Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, Ham let,' is a New Haven man who has de- voted the best of his efforts to the study of classical plays.
 MT. Smith is the son of the late Dr. J. Fl. Smith, who for many years was one of the best known and leading dentists in the state of Connecticut. He studied at the Yale Art school for some time and despite splendid successes in pastel work he determined to do his best with legitimate dramas and trag- edies.
 In 1895 after several years of prelim- mary work he entered upon his stage career. He first went with Julia Ar thur and Louis James, who as co-stars appeared successfully in Shakesperean repertoire. Alter that he joined the Frohnan forces and has since played with them in all their leading modern plays.
 Mr. Smith has always had a bent for the classical plays and has never failed to devote much of his attention and study to them, no matter how else en- gagged. In following out this natural desire he took advantage of a visit to London to study with the famous Madame Lester, who was student un- der Sampson, who was the teacher of the great Bernhardt.
 MT. Smith comes of a fine family and a cultured audience will greet him and his fine supporting company at the Hyperion. A fine tribute to MT. Smiths talent is contained in the fol- lowing letter written to him unsolicited after recital at a private gathering in Boston of Harvard professors and other cultivated persons The letter is from critic and scholar of prominence and is as follows:
 William Barstow Smith:
 Dear Sir:
 T was deeply interested in your ren- dition of certain selections from the works of the Bard of Avon. Your con- ception of the character of the Danish Prince evinces the most careful study and delicacy of light and shade of !, true artist. It is both philosophic and artistic. Your rendition Of the solilo- quy while by no means copy of hat of the late Edwin Booth reminded me strongly of his conception of it; full of deep thought and reserve power, Yours is the figure and the voice of a Hamlet while your facial expression in it's mobility covers the gamut of hu- man emotions. Your selection from Richard III. is full Of poWAt and mos; impressive as is that of the Corsican Brothers, while your voice sounds the rich diapason of the organ. We wish you every success in your arts
