HAGERS THEATRE.

'Sapho", dramatization of Dau-
det's celebrated novel was the play
presented at the Hager theatre last
night. Although the attendance was
not as large as the one that greeted
the company's opening play last
Monday evening, still the house was
comfortably filed. Miss Branscombe
was in the previous play the whole
show and in the part OF Fanny lie
Grande (Sapho) was fine, The role
in this piece taken by Miss Brans-
combe is greatly different from her
part in THE Sheriff" and in view Of
this fact, it gave her much opportun-
ity to display her versatility, The
gowns worn by her throughout the
performance were beautiful and were
greatly admired, especially by the
women present. Herbert Ashton who
took the part of Sapho's lover, Jean
Gaussin, met with the approval Of the
audience. The remainder OF the cast
were well balanced and gave good
portraiture of their respective parts.

At THE ASTORIA AND

LARGE CROWDS TURN OUT TO
TO SEE "SAPHO" AT BOTH
OF THE POPULAR PLAY
HOUSES.
ASTORIA THEATRE.

The intensely emotional play OF
Sapho held the boards At the Astoria
Theatre last night and yielded uni
fed enjoyment to large and cultured
audience. 1t is one OF the plays that
invokes the interest and challenges
the social Judgment, which remains
undetermined and uncxpressed until
its very finale, Miss Georgia Harper
made an ideal Sapho and her por-
travail OF the complex and beautiful
study lost nothing OF the depth and
mystery and tenderness with which
Daudet invested it. II is purely Pa
risian in conception, plot, detail: but
rich in all the passions that swept
humanity and make the happiness
and misery OF love mostly its misery.
Ii sounds all the depths and shadows
OF life and solves many OF It's enigmas,
but leaves its central and most en-
crossing problem, woman, just where
the creator lett her, exquisite, battling,
alluring. incomprehcnsible; yet al
ways and forever dominant The
play must be seen TO be dealt with
justly: and it is worth the best study
that can be given it,
Miss Harper gives all her excep.
tional talent to the character and is
very fascinating iii the marvellous var
iations demanded OF her
She is splendidly supported
throughout and especially by Mr.. Jos.
Detric&, as Jean Gaussin, the young,
country-bred lover and genuine man,
The play sparkles with wit and hu-
NOR and clever situations which not
only charm one, but relieve the ten
sion OF profound interest excited by
the startlingly realistic features OF it.
There is no lack of interest at any
point and in the hands OF this clever
troupe, affords a delightful and OBJ
sorbing entertainment for an evening

Bishop Henry Goldman Potter, of the
New York Protestant Episcopal dio.
eese, was reported by his physicians
to be resting somewhat more comfort
ably with symptoms rather more fay
orable than at any time during the
past several hours. The condition Of
the eminent patient is still critical,
however, and no great hopes are built
upon the slight rally. Oxygen is being
freely administered
Gathered at the bedside of the
bishop, at the country place of his
wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Clark Potter, are
the members of his family, summoned
when the serious character Of his i'll
ness became apparent. AT more than
one time hope was practically aban.
doned and the gradual ebbing Of the
patients strength gave rise to fears
that the life spark might go out any
moment
kilograms of inquiry as to the
bishops condition and expressions Of
hope for his recovery came in a con.
stant stream from all over the e0an
try, while numerous cable messages
of similar purport were received from
various parts Of the world. Little re
assurance could be given the anxious
inquirers, owing to the admittedly
critical condition of the patient, and
even the slight turn for the better was
not made the basis for any marked ex
pressions of belief that the issue
would be favorable.
Bishop Potter's health has for a
long time been far from good, but II
was not until early in the spring that
his condition began to cause anxiety
When, on Easter Sunday. he was IN
able to take part in church services
It was announced that he was suffer
ing from acute indigestion. Later ii
became known that he was expert
encing an attack of stomach trouble
and liver trouble, and early in May il
developed that he was too III to think
of attending the Pan-Anglican con
gress in London The bishop was much
affected, too, it was said, by the death
of DR.. Morgan Dix, Of Trinity parish
on April 80, this serving to aggravate
his illness. He made arsufficient recov.
cry, however, to allow of his removal
here on June 10.
During the past few days, however
the heat had a serious effect upon the
bishop. He is in his seventy-fifth
year, his powers of resistance are i'm
paired by his illness, and he rapidly
grew worse.
