has not only mounted the ladder OF
fame to the top rung. where he is gen

but he has become conspicuous fig.
ure among the famous men of Ameri-

in England, where he has played sew
eral engagements; but where, to be
sure, his financial success has not
been as great as In his native land.
He was an artistic success in London,
and several of the leading dramatic
critics acknowledged that England
had no comedian quite his equal, yet
his financial takings were not on a
footing with his American returns
In this, however, Mr.. Goodwin shared
the same fate as Edwin Forrest, Ed
