NOTE AND COMMENT.

Scenic artists are now at work in New
York preparing the scenery for the forth
coming joint starring tour of +. II. SOth-
ern and Julia Marlowe. The first of the
classic plays to be presented by this new
combination of popular players will be
Shakspeares pretty comedy, Much Ado
About Nothing" 1t is now understood
that the partnership just formed between
Mr.. Southern and Miss MarlOwe is of far
greater Importance than was at first sup
posed, THEN initial tour being intended only
as fOrerunner of a permanent alliance
which shall in the matter of productions
and artistic effort, represent in this coun-
try what the ASSOCIATION OF Sir Henry
Irving and Ellen Terry has stood for in
England Although the present arrange
ment provides for combination of three
years only Charles Frohman Daniel Froh-
II an and Charles Il. Dillingham;, the man.
ayers interested as we'll as the stars them
selves, have agreed that II the venture
prove the success anticipated, the names
of Marlowe and Sothern will be linked to-
gether indefinitely. To this end, it is said,
the greatest playwrights of the day have
been invited by Charles Frohman to con-
tribute new dramas preferably on histor-
zeal subjects. which will afford the star
roles equal TO those written especially for
Sir Henry Irving and Miss Terry. The
repertoire for next season will probably be
confined to Shakspearean productions.
One of the most interesting transforma-
tiOns the stage has been that of Marie
Tempest. Twelve years ago she was the
leading Iight-Opera prima donna Of the Eng
lish stage, and she made profitable tour
of this country in THE Red Hussar." In
dianapolis play-goers who follow thearu-
cal events will remember her delightful
work I'm that tuneful comic opera when
she appeared here at the Grand Opera
House, with Lenore Snyder, an Indianapolis
girl, as her leading feminine assistant in
the cast. After singing in opera for
number of seasons Miss Tempest found one
day that her voice, if not exactly failing,
was at any rate, giving her considerable
trouble. and she decided, without more ado,
to desert the operate stage and turn TO
straight comedy. After a long and serious
preparation she made her debut in dramatic
work, appearing in London in the comedy
Mistress Nell To everybody's amaze
merit and delight she proved her right to
the title of accomplished coincidence. Now
she has found what seems to be a very
clever and diverting little comedy, The
Marriage of Kittie.' She scored hit with
it in London and has been charming

Horace B. Fry is a solid man among

Minnie Maddern Fiske 1t was a tragedy
of low life in the Italian quarter of New
York. The writing was strong in natural
ism, there was genius in Mrs. Fiske's act
ing, and both were admired very much.
But this demonstration of Mr.. Fry's ability
TO make a good drama in a single act did
not lead any manager to accept one from
him in more acts. So he hired a company
to give a performance of a full-length play
selected from his stock on hand. Well, /

in Shylock, one of the easiest make-ups,
the artist must rely absolutely the voice
and eyes for natural expression. The coun-
tenance should be the mirror of the soul.
AS a branch of art, makeup has always
been a serious study with me, and if sue

a knowledge of painting. Is not makeup a
