Hamlet. F"

NJ NantelIs impersonation Of Hamlet mas peeh
seen before now and It is not unknown. Last hsi'
u WAS disclosed TO a considerable anu hAii"iS o.
a,a,oa at the Garden Theatre. There may pe
somewhere on earth, an actor who can 1mpersoiato
rIo,,a+ as that character stands IN Shakespeare S
sublime tragedy; but il so. he mas hot Se'
vealed himself TWO actors, within the ias' MY
,,esrs have risen to the height OF that great IN
+e,Iactual imaginative creation,-Edwln Booth anu
Harry Irving They dead and gone, ana the
part has died with them. Mr. Manteli Is al a.
of respectable talent and ample experience"
however does not seem TO nave oohe INN ~
.ood His performance of Hamlet is a careful, ana
In some trifng respects commenoaoie' eiioit - g

,tuality of temperament, 1maglnauoh' olstiiio'ii'
refinement feeling, grace, repose Iteiec'uii 81
uremacy, and copious variety OF eApieA1
mower To all these things this actor is d CUM
nIete stranger He has plenty of voice. but does

IJanIet is not an acrobat, blacksmith, nor a

discuss such a performance. There is no more
of Hamlet in Robert Mantell than there is OF milk

1aved from time to time. and the various expert
r,ents on it, as they along, must be viewed
with whatever patience can be maintained MI
ManteII is announced for Macbeth, ,-another III
stance of professional temerity. But this Is d
strange time The awful intimation has peen
nubIisbed that Mr.. Z. H. Sothern will present
