This will be the first public perform
ance of this play ever given In America
and the experiment will undoubtedly
attract large audience. Mr.. Mestayer
has surrounded himself with a capable
company and has given the produce

which assures a finished performance.
""The Lady of the Sea" is one of the
most interesting of the Ibsen plays to
read, and Mr.. Mestayer believes firmly
that 1t will be equally attractive on the
stage. 1t contains a comparatively
generous proportion of love interest
and dramatic suspense, so that from
one point of view or another 1t will
probably be found interesting to all
classes.
The play is a plea for greater free
dom of choice for women In deciding
their life. Ellida, the hero Inc, marries
Wangel because, as she says, she was
'helpless and forlorn and utterly alone.
What more natural than that I should
jump at the bargain when you came

val of "Ingomar." This is to be fol-

His "Ingomar" is not the "Ingomar" OF

ical and physical power mellowed by
years of association with the greatest
players of his time. The "Richelieu"
of Mr.. James is said to be a finely

many commendabe attributesr-it ap-
peals to the lover the soldier, the pa

Stage Stories

Here is theatrical announcement
clipped from a small dramatic publica-
tion of middle western town:
II take this opportunity to say good
bye and farewell to all of my friends
among the show people and others, as 1
have closed the opera house for good
and will move the building, which is a
one-story frame, 30x3O. down to the
farm, some three miles from town. I
may some time again engage in the
opera house business, when | hope to
meet all of my friends, travelling and
resident, and make new ones; but four
teen years at one thing, and making no
money at it, it is time to quit!"
The intense sarcasm which was Sir
Henry Irving's only weapon was well
illustrated when an actor but little
known and puffed up with his own inn
portance Informed Sir Henry that he
had a new idea for Hamlet. He had
discovered in Denmark that the color
for mourning was red, not black, and
he proposed to dress his Hamlet en-
tlrely in red.
'Well, that's-thats-tha new at
any rate" replied Sir Henry
The pompous actor went on to say:
1.-THE only trouble comes at that part
where Hamlet says: My inky cloak,
good mother
"Oh, WELL" remarked Sir Henry" you
know they have red ink"

"Virginius"

Wallace Munro, representing Louis
James, says with apparent modesty
that Mr.. James approaching presen-
tation of Sheridan Knowles sublime
tragedy "Virglnius" should encourage
the lovers of the Legitimate drama. The
various epochs which have marked the
strides of progress in the dramatic and
lyric stage have each and all been
fruitful of achieving, at least, a dis
tinction solely and wholly representa-
tive of the condition of the times pre-
sented.
I'VE have had the romantic, prob
lematic, prosaic, socialistic, frivolic,
classic, scholastic, patriotic and reli-
gious periods, each of which have DEM
onstrated beyond any question of
doubt the peculiar susceptibilities of
the auditor at that time, and to have a
return now to the classic is strong
indication of the moral and mental
transformation in public taste during
the past few months.
1.-THE sterner problems of life always
confront u.s. yet to witness the produce
ton of one of these great problems,
and realize it's solution, even II that
solution be tragic, is in itself fulfilling
mission that becomes incumbent up
on every one who considers that the
mission Of the stage Is to exemplify
the higher ideals in man, even though
these ideals be not in accord with pub
lie sentiment.
1.-THE story of 'Virginius with it's
fearful ending, although pitifully sad,
discloses a lesson of heroism without a
parallel in the history of the drama.
the filial piety of the daughter, linked
with the domestic purity and devotion
of the father, constitutes a picture that
will live In memory forever Such
plays ennoble the stage and elevate the
mental perception of the player and
auditor, Thus the higher mission of
the drama is achieved"

Music Notes

THE Westminster Abbey Choir, on
Tuesday evening, January 0, at
Simpson auditorium, will give its
only concert of the season in this city.
The reputation of the Westminster Glee
and Concert party won during its
western tour should be sufficient guar
antee that those who go to hear this
unique body Of singers are not likely
to be disappointed. At the same time
this evening of music will constitute the
sixth event of the Philharmonic course
this season. A feature that will un-
doubtedly prove of popular interest is
the appearance Of the solo soprano boys
who are said to rank amongst the most
celebrated In England.
