LEADER ON AMERICAN STAGE
For Some Months his condition Had
Been Hopeless But the Fact
Was concealed From

hid not been made public. Mr.. Mans
fields condition had been reported
as being excellent.
1t was stated that he stood the
journey well from Saranac Lake and
that he was up and around his home
here until three days ago. Then a
turn for the worse set in and Mr..
Mansfield was confined to his room.
O. Thursday DR.. Mcclellan, Of Pitts

New York, Aug. 31.-Richard Mans
field was born on the little island OF
Holigoland on May "a, 1857. His
mother was Nine. Mansfield Riders
dorf, a famous prima donna, and 1t
vas from her that Mansfield inherit
ed his love for the arts. The actor
studied at several schools On the con-
tincrt and then went TO England to
study art in the South K|ensington
Museum, London.
The young artist made a precarious
living painting pictures and many
times his only meal in those early
days in London vas a hot potato
bought from a street peddler.
Il used to hold the potato to warm
my hands" said Mansfield in relating
his experiences, land then eat it."
The struggle for a livelihood proved
dis%couraging to Mansfield and he
cane to Boston, where for a time he
entered business life as a salesman
in a dry goods house. Commercial
life was not congenial to the tenn
+ rGment of the young man and he
returned to England. He then turned
his talCn1 toward the stage. AS a
singer and comedian he joined a
ta"eling company at a salary of SIS
a week. Even In those early days of
his stage career he did splendid char
acteristics and mannerisms, which
r'arked his work and stamped 1t as
his own many years after. Mans
field turned his whole artistic bent to
the study of the stage and waited for
an opportunity to show what he could
do.
Several years were spent playing
small parts in tours of the English
provinces, and then Mansfield came to
this country where his first appear
ance was made in Les ManteuX
.'oir,s at the Standard theater. Later
he played the part of Nick Vedder in
rip Van Wrinkle"
Mansfield's genius had so far failed
to make itself manifest to his associ-
ates, but in 1888 his opportunity came
when A. NJ. Palmer put on the PA
ri ian Romance" j. H. Stoddart was
cast for the part Of Baron Chevrial
in the play. Stoddart at the last min
rte declined to play the part, with
which he said he was not in full sym
pathy. Mansfield, who had been cast
for small part in the play, stepped
forward and begged permission to play
the mart of the palsied, dissolute old
French nobleman.
Mansfield lifted what at first seemed
a small eccentric part to one of all
absorbing interest. The public and
the critics forgot the play to talk of
Mansfleld's Baron Chevrial, and from
that day Mansfield became a leading
actor on the American stage. After
several years of acting in various
plays, which he carried to a degree
of success by his powerful person
a t., he became a star in 1887, when
he appeared in Prince Karl"
