CHAPLIN AS LINCOLN.
Clever Monoloaist Portrayal of Famous
President at the Qdeon

Benjamin Chaplin cannot be accused
of having followed the lines of same
ness. which are often very pronounced
in series of entertainments such as
comprise a lycsum bureau course. His
entertainment is unique and the two
audiences before which he appeared
Saturday in his portrayal OF Abraham
Lincoln, will probably concede 1t to be
one of the best numbers so far given,
on the course of the Railroad Y. NJ. c..
A. Mr.. Chapill's monologue Is not a
caricature, but is a study in minute
details of this famous president. In
face. form and figure. Mr. Chaplin, as
he appeared msde up, is an exact image
of Lincoln, with his long-drawn- out
awkward figure and strikingiy homely
face. How we'll his voice may initiate
that of the original. was. with most of
his auditors, merely a conjecture. The
president was presented as seen at
home with his family, In his office with
his cabinet, receiving visitors, telling
stories and directing his army. There
is only one possible criticism, and one
which was heard quite often, that. for
a monologue. even with such famous
character as its basis. 1t was a trif1e
long which caused the interest to wane.
The matinee crowd was small, but a
capacity was played to in the even
