DEATH COMES SUDDENLY AFTER
A GRAND PERFORMANCE

WAS MAKING FAREWELL TOUR
SEIZED WITH ATTACK OF SYM
COPE, HE DIED BEFORE DOC.
TORS ARRIVED.

London, Oct. a. - The English
speaking world has suffered an ire
parable loss by the sudden death last
night of Sir Henry Irving, who was
universally regarded as the most rep
resentative English actor of contem-
porary times.
Sir Henry died literally in harness.
He was giving a series of farewell
performances in the English prov
inces, and this week was playing an
engagement at Bradford, appearing
in several favorite roles. Thursday
he presented king Rene's Daughter
and THE Bells and seemed to be in
excellent health, taking the exhaust
ing part of Matthias in the latter play
with
All the Vieor Of Youth.
Last night, before an enthusiastic
audience he portrayed one of his most
characteri\ ically intellectual parts,
the title role in his own stage adapta-
ton of Lord Tennyson's Beckett"
with marked success.
After the performance Sir Henry re-
turned to his hotel reaching his rooms
at II 80 o'clock, when it was observed
that he was in great pain. Physicians
were Immediately summoned, but be-
fore they could arrive Sir Henry was
seized with an attack of syncope and
expired.
Irving Liked Americans.
WASHINGTON. Oct, 14.-"Sir Henry
Irving was looking forward with much
enthusiasm to his coming tour of the
United States,' said Charles FROG
man, his American manager, in speak
ing of the distinguished English actor
last night. "He liked the Americans"
continued Mr.. Frohman, land he had
many friends among them. 1t was Mr..
Irving's intention to come to the Uni
ted States probably two months in ad-
his season in the latter part of next
October and just spend the time in
visiting among them.
Was to Be His Farewell.
"His season was to cover a period
of twenty playing weeks. extending
over a large part of the United States,
and was to terminate at the Knicker-
booker theater in New York city. 1t
was to be Mr.. Irving's farewell ap-
pearance in America and he wanted
the opportunity to make his adieu to
the American people. Following his
last appearance in New York, about
the end of February, he was to be en-
tertained at breakfast to which well
known people from New York, Phil
adelphia, Baltimore, Washington and
other cities were to be invited. He
then expected to sail for England"
