The Man on the Box dramatization
by Grace Livingstone Furness of Harold

to be highly entertaining performance
Henry E. Dixey of "Adonis'' fame was the

with dash and a swing that kept the
audience On the qui vive from curtain to
curtain. Enthusiasm SO high at the end
OF the second act that Mr. Dixey was
Obliged to show himself before the curtain
many times and finally to respond to the
continued applause with a characteristic
and amusing little speech.
The humorous situations and the bright

effective by the work of the capable COM

Assistant United States Attorney Charles
II. Turner. in a brief explanatory adj
dress. told the jury that the gov
eminent expected to prove that the
defendant shot Steele after an alterca-
ton. and that the shooting was done not
with premeditated malice, but upon the
spur OF the moment; that tho weapon used
was a shotgun: that the shcoting occurred
in Pruttts house, and that Steele was
wounded IN the wrist and abdomen, from
which injuries his death occurred the fol-
lowing day. Mr.. Turner also said that the
government had succeeded In bringing into
court Charles r. Chiseldine. the only eye
witness of the affair. who could not be pro-
duced either by the defense or the prosecu-
ton at the first trial. The hearing of testi-
mony was then begun.

ing shot Steele. but pleaded self-defense

THE TIL Err.
Columbia Theater.

Robert Mantells appearance as TRACE
dian in this city was expected with far
more interest than attaches to the usual ex-
ploration In classic fields of actors who
have become favorites in the lighter TO-
mantle roles. A great many years ago Mr..
Aantell entirely proved his efficiency as a
ShAkespearean actor by performance OF
Hamlet at the close of weeks engagement
in plays of a modern meiodramatic charae-
ter. His Hamlet then was a discdeet we'll
poised and yet most impressive character
ization; one which left no doubt of his
mental grasp of poetic and philosophic sig
nificances nor of his capacity for their lucid
and convincing interpretations. Year by
year Mr.. Mantell has been close student
of the methods which most impress the
sensibilities OF an audience. He has been
always a player of the popular type, and
yet one whose style of work has command
ed serious critical appreciation.
For the opening performance OF his en-
gagement in Washington that giant among
tragedies. King Lear" was selected In
terror there is only one play in the Snakes
pearean collection which surpasses 1t, and
that Is Titus Andronicus.' The central
character stands out supreme and doInlnat-
ing above the other figures in the drama,
whose unimportance was last night en-
phasized by the inefficiency of several Of
the players. Mr.. Mantell's Lear Is fine
rather than a robust creation In some OF
the scenes its pathos entirely overWheIms
the majestic dignity which is the supreme
and vitalizing quality of the role But as
a character 1t is closely studied. The de-
tails of gesture and vocal expression are
looked to with faithful and comprehending
skill. 1t is a tremendous test that an actor
submits himself to in portraying Lear. The
public is unfamiliar with 1t, and its plot
and devices are so involved that Instead OF
enhancing 1t sometimes retards the interest
which normally must center in the great
kingly feature that gives the play Its t1tie
Mr.. Mantells fine resonant voice Is en-
ployed without apparent Evolutionary aru-
flee, and while at times his study of the
character becomes pictorial rather than
temperamental. 1t never descends to crudity
or staginess. 1t is portrayal well worthy
of an honorable place in the list of later
classic representations. The part of Kent,
as played by Mr.. Gordon Burby, was an ex-
celent piece of acting and the performance
of Cordelia by Miss Marie Booth Russell
was also a highly capable piece OF work.

At meeting in Scottish Rite Cathedral
last evening the Masonic fraternity OF
Washington auspiciously opened its cam
paign for the May festival, to be held at
Convention Hall during the week of May
2l-2S. This festival is designed to raise
funds for the further advancement and
completion Of the Masonic Temple enter
prise, for which two successful fairs have
been given. The festival will differ In many
respects from the previous events, and is

About 100 members of various Masonic
bodies were present at the meeting last
evening. and thirty-six different bodies
were represented. There was an interesting
discussion of ways and means for the fes-
tival, and pleasing incident was the 'auc-
tioning of the first season ticket among
the members of the committee. 1t was
taken by Treasurer B. F. Smith for $40
note, and constitutes the present treasury
fund or the new board. But more and bet
ter things are confidently expected All IN
olcatlons point to very successful festi-
val, and some OF it's features already cut
lined are likely to prove very attractive.
The different evenings of the Masonic
May festival week viii be devoted to vari-
Gus entertainments, among those under
consideration being promenade, concert,
ball and vaudeville nights
The Masonic Temple Association and the
Masonic festival board OF control rely for
success largely upon the sale of season
tickets. which will be soon offered to all
the Masons of Washington.
The net proceeds Of the festival will be
divided proportlonately among the bodies
participating in the event in the form Of
Masonic Temple stock. and generous
rivalry among the bodies is expected to
enSue.
