Excellent Performance of the
Classic.

The Louisville, KY, Times of
Oct. 8, contains the following
mention of Charles B. Hanford,
who will soon appear at the JEFF
fersOn Theatre.
1t was a splendid production of that
Shakesperian classic, "Antonr and
Cleopatra" that Charles B. Hanford
and company presented last night at
Macauley's. and it was warmly re-
ceived by an audience of such proper
tions as to be decidedly compliment
tary, considering the inclemency of
the evening.
Mr.. Hanford has reinforced the pro-
ductiOn with modern embellishments
in the form OF the spectacular effects,
including a ballet.
In a curtain speech he explained
that it was his aim to popuiarize the
classic drama by such innovations in
the hope that it could be brought back
into public favor as in the days of
Booth and Barrett when the interest
was such that even the spacious old
Auditorium was filed by patrons of
Shakespearean plays. Mr.. Hanford's
talk was warmly applauded, showing
that his ideas we're approved.
And yet while Mr.. HanfOrd's pur-
pose to pOpularize the classic has met
with Endorsement in a measure, it
must nevertheless be a bit discourage
ing to this conscientious exponent of
Shakespeare to observe how the gen.
eral taste runs, as shown in the en-.
core OF the dances in contrast with
the fact hat some of those sublime
Shakespearean speeches ''went over
their heads" or we're received with
only moderate applause.
Mr.. Hanford has retained some of
the members of his company and
strengthened it in the addition of new
ones. He has been happy in the
selection of his leading woman.
Miss Alice Wilson made a charming
Cleopatra, both looking and acting
the part of the beautiful Queen of the
Nile in n manner which easily carried
the imagination. Except for a slight
deficiency in vocal power her portray
al left little to be desired. The part
of Domitius Enobarbus by John M.
Kline, also stood out prominently in
the performance, his fine voice and
distinct utterance being features OF
his work.
OF course, Mr.. Hartford in the role
of Antony gave a vigorous, well-roun-
ded portrayal of that noble old Ro-
man.
A most c~Ommendable fact was the
promptness with which the drama was
presented, there being only short in
termissions, and the five acts being
given within the IL O'Clock limit, which
is rather unusual for Shakespearean
productions,
"AntOny and Cleopatra" will be re-
peated tomorrow night For tO-night

"GeOrge Washington, Jr.." at the
Crescent Theatre.


Crescent Theatre.
N. o. Picayune, Dec. 20.
"COhanisms" are such whole
some fun that they who see
George Washington, Jr," which
began its run for a week last
night in the Crescent Theatre,
cannot refrain from repeating
some of the snappy bon mots.
and now that the play has found
favor here the buttOn-hOlers will
be using some of the good things
that go with the show. While all
that George Cohan has done has
won popularity. he surpassed his
other efforts when he produced
George Washington, Jr." 1t is
in light vein, with an interesting
story. In his inimitable way
Cohan strikes at half-hearted
Americans, and in creating the
character of George Belgrave,
who assumes the name of George
Washington. J-. las a show of indie.

which will find echoes in millions
of hearts. Senator Belgrave, al.
though he has won much in poll
tics and is rated a millionaire,
has desires to be in the aristO.

dear old England, and he aims to
have his son George marry IA
titled lady. The bride-elect hap.
/ pens to be a magazine writer and
adventures working in partner
ship with a smart political press
agent, who assumes the role of
Lord ROthburt, a peer ON a visit
to this country, and presents the
magazine writer as his daughter.
Senator Hopkins, a political en-.
envy with a pretty niece who is
loved by little George and loves
little George in return, is at the
bottom Of the scheme to have
Senator Belgrave sell off his son
in the marriage, so that at the
right time the duplicity of the
imposter will be exposed and the
Senator will be the laughing
stock of the country. However,
little George rebels, and in a
quarrel scene with his father, re.
nounces the marriage PROPOSE.

Hopkins niece, and as he has
been disowned he will call him.
self George Washington, Jr. In
proper time he saves his father
from the imposters and in the
end little George wins the girl
he loves and all is happy.
Carter De Haven does not imi-
tate George Cohan.' He is an
original young American. The
twang which goes with Cohan's
singing is not necessary with De
Haven, for he has a way of his
own in singing topical songs.
And his dances are graceful, and
while somewhat grOtesque, the
steps find favor as we'll as Co

Haven made a distinct hit, and

W. L. Colyer has sold out his under
taking business to J. A. Ringness, has
rented his house to Geo. A. Munro
and will spend the winter in Cali

MIR. Ringness has not only bought
Mr.. Colyer's stock, but has also rent
ed the undertaking rooms and will
continue to use them for that purpose.
Mr.. and Mrs. Colyer plan to leave
Morris soon. They will first go to
Minneapolis and Waukesha, Wis. and
visit there till about November 1st,
when they will go to Rialto, Califor-
