THEI'S'i'TAGE
Alberta eaIatin.

s
Once upon a time there was a
Chesty Manager who liked nothing
better than to cause young actors and
actresses trouble. Whenever they
applied to him for job he would blow
up to seven hundred and eighty and
turn them down with an awful bump
One day there came to him young
Virginia debutante, who wanted to go
on the stage. AS was usual with him
he whispered eshddoo" through his
nose and rolled over in his office chair
for another nap.
But one day he happened to notice
the name Of Alberta Gallatin on a
programme at a theatre where the
mighty Richard Mansfield was play
ing And some time later he saw the
same name in support of E. II. Soth-
ern- he thought 1t looked familiar to
him but could not remember Just
where he had heard 1t. Then he saw
1t again many times in company with
Minnie Madden Fiske, Henry Miller,
Jacob Adler Joseph Jefferson and
such like celebrated lights of the
stage- And then he tumbled and went
around to the stage door with little
supplication. But this time 1t was he
who felt the proximity of the North
Pole. And mournfully he turned
away
And when he saw the name still
later, this time heading the bills of
Under the Restoration" and still
again In the same position on the pa
per for Ibsen's Ghosts" he got wise
In a heap and again scrambled for
the Stage door, this time with a
prayer But the actress would have
nothing to do with him and sent him
ON his way, wiser manager than he
had ever been before.
Since then he has been good to
young actors and actresses. He now
gives them a chance.
Moral: Even If you are not a man.
ager It Is best to see an actress at
work before passing an opinion or
saying what she can do.
Miss Gallatin will appear in Sou.

Mildred Holland.

Mildred Holland has often been re-
ferred to as one Of the best American
emotional actresses, but since she
has made her phenomenal success as
Catherine the Great in "The Triumph
of an Empress" she is also styled the
Queen of Comedy. When Miss Hol-
land appears at the Grand Opera
House on Saturday, October 14th our
theatregoers will see her in the best
part she has ever portrayed.
In reviewing her performance the
Worcester, Mass, Telegram said in
part: Mildred Holland, who is well
known to Worcester audiences. was
the star of the play. Her work gave
it body, soul and flavor. She has the
rare faculty of comedy. She has vi
vacity and stage presence. She is one
of the great lights, the big women of
the theatre.
Her best work was done last night
in the earlier scenes. She did not
lack later. She did not fall short of
real dignity when such was dempnd-
ed of her. Yet her comedy was SO
spontaneous, her humor so con-
tagious, and her general department
SO captivating, that she makes a fig
ure good not only in the present pro-
duction. but that promises much in
the time to come.
Mildred Hollands chortle, her pecu,
liar laugh Of glee, beginning in a lit
tie ripple and rising gradually to a
full grown laugh, is one of the rarest
of things. Her rapidity of utterance,
her change OF moods, her smile, and
her general stage department, all
promise many things. In the present
performance she demonstrated that
she has ability and that she has de-
veloped into lone Of the best actresses
on the American stage. Those who
saw her years ago were not prepared
for the ripeness of work, for the full
ness of power that she evinced last
night. She could dominate the stage
in defamation in the latter scenes,
and in both she was good"

eff there is much virtue in the doc

there such a vast difference as we see
in a multitude Of instances between
brothers OF between sisters?" said Mr..
R. T. Hufmayer of San Francisco.
years ago I began to make a study
of this matter, and I have a book at

ternal ~disparities. I know Of a learned
jurist, and a most excellent man from
every point Of view, who has a brother
in the p~enitentiary. I knew Of a fam
lily Of six brothers, three of whom were
men of the highest social and bust
ness standing, while the other three
were knaves and vagabondS, outcasts
from society. They had the same
father and mother, the same moral
and intellectual training. Whence the
difference? I know of two sisters, one
of whom is an angel and the other a
totally depraved creature. Inherited
qualities often exist and are inluen-
