IMPERIAL THEATRE.

Bulwer's ever popular play The Lady
OF Lyons" rs the attraction at the I'm
perial theatre this week and IL offers
Mr.. Courtleigh and his talented associates
splendid opportunities 20 win new ad-
mirers In large and splendid way does
the cast perform their interesting work
THE Lady OF Lyons is one OF those ro-
mantle plays that recall how true Is that
saying OF Carlyle's. that the age OF ro-
nance never ceases. Not a one is there
who lis tens to its exquisite sentiment but
knows that not IN France nor I'm the
revolution did this poetry alone find its
best glory, but IN his or her own heart.
IL is the ever new. ever old sentiment OF
poetry that the playwright has made
deeper thing for us all because he has
clothed the feelings with other beauties
that do not hide but enhance the glories
OF what We all know is something very
real.
Perhaps the language Is fervid and there
Is a dimness OF fairy palaces about IL,
but we realize that there is "a time when
all men are all Menottes all women
Paulines. else were tho world a much
poorer place were it's material wealth a
thousand times greater than IL is The
Lady OF Lyons" is one OF the great plays
OF the stage and will always have its
large number Of admirers.
Last evening the all-star cast received
most earnest proof that the audience ap-
preciated It's work. This favor was de-
served. for seldom has there been seen
at the Imperial a more thoroughly salts
factory performance.
Mr. Courtlelgh made an ideal Claude
Melnotte. In appearance he ILLS all the
requirements OF the part that the most
fastidious might require. He threw into
the character all the energy and tempered
IL with all the tenderness that could be
-
evening by the grace and ease that was
evident in every portion OF his work. His
reading OF the most important lines was
we'll worth hearing and there was moth
ing but the most splendid taste In his
union OF the action and the word In many
a delicate passage.
lanes J. Ryan made a fine Beauseant.
The part is much different from those he
has heretofore played here. but he gave
splendid proof OF his versatility and thor
ourhly pleased his many friends In the
audience Frank r. Jamlson played well
the part OF Col. Damas and Harmon Mac
Gregor i'm makeup and action was hne
specimen OF the old French MP.
Miss Flora Juliet Bowley made
charming Pauline. She Is handsome
Young woman and has all the grace and
other qualities that the poet playwright
sought 10 bring 10 life In his beautiful
nortrait OF a lovable woman. The part
is a djrricult one 10 play 1t calls for
youth beauty and a depth OF passion al
most as great as Juliet's. Miss Bowley's
work gives great evidence OF attention to
detail and she showed last night that she
nossesred very many qualities that belong
10 the great actress
AIhert Roberts plays the part or the
,rnieener and makes the trifing part
quite interesting The remainder OF the
cast is satisfactory.

sons, the eldest Of whom is James Ord.
IL is said the ord family are i'm posses

James l.. ord of this city declared to-
day that he would take steps 10 claim a
share in the estate which it is claimed

Mr.. ord states the gross value OF the
