not single ragged performance has
been given ct the Belasco during the
season. II entailcd a vast amount OF
work on the part of the star TO drill
his colleagues so carefully. but the
fruits OF his labor have been apparent
in the artistic presentations given such
plays as "Divorcons." Prince Karl.
THE Rivals" "A Scrap OF Paper. The
Gay Lord Quex." and others.
Miss Walker as Nora.
Washington playgoers nave seen Miss
Charlotte Walker in many diversified
roles within the past eighteen months,
not only In stock work. but during the
regular season. They have never, how
ever. seen her in a role which offered
her such possibilities as that of Nora
in "a Dolls House." in which she will
appear at the Pelasco tomorrow night.
beginning a supplementary summer sea-
son as the star OF the company at that
theater.
Few actresses have the fascination for
Washington theater patrons that Miss
Walker possesses. She is one actress
whom even the women and matinee de-
voices admire, compliment which is
most unusual. She will have a thor
oughly sympathetic audience when she
appears for the first time in the great
Ibsen play.
As a general proposition it would be
piece Of bad judgment for the man
agement Of d theater to announce that
an actress or an actor would hold a
reception after a performance, for there
/ is an enchantment about people behind
the footlights that rapidly fades away
when they are seen in the light Of com
mon day In Miss Walkers case, how
ever her magnetism may be even more
effective at short range. How many
matinee girls Will say after tomorrow

A Homemade curfew.

Every family should have cur
few which should positively "ring
tonight" and every night if needed.
These curfews are inexpensive and
can be homemade. Take a piece of
siding two feet long and whittle one
end down to handle. Then take
the child that needs the curfew and
bend him over barrel. Now take
the piece of siding in the hand and
use it for a clapper. Put it on hot.
Divide the strokes evenly and see
that none miss. Good for a boy or
girl up to the age Of sixteen, and
applications are warranted to cure
the most pronounced case of street
loafng that exists. The music this
curfew makes is finer than singing

Feat of a Greek Scholar.

1t may safely be said that no feat
of translation in any age has ever
,equaled that achieved by Professor
Jebb in rendering Browning,s "Abt
Vogler" into Greek verse. This fine
sohloquy of the musician is less OBJ.
scure, no doubt, than many other OF
its authors productions, but it
abounds in imagery and in turns OF
thought which even an EngIshman
finds it not very easy to follow and
of which he could hardly have con-
ceived it possible that any Greek
equivalents could exist. Yet they
did exist, for Jebb found them,
though it may be doubted whether
any other Greek scholar living
would have been equally successful
in. his search.-Lendon Telegraph.
