Columbia.

The lovers of the tragic in the drama
who failed to witness the performance Of
''Virginius,'' at the Columbia theater
last evening. missed a rare treat. James
ONeill and Monte Cristo are so indis-
solubly connected that one scarcely thinks
of the one without recalling tho other.
So. too. was it with John Mccullough and
Virginius. the role that was more Pc
culiarly his own than any other in mis-
rerertory. And when the Old-timer wan
dered into the Columbia last night. to see
once more the masterpiece of Sheridan
Knowles 1t was with mingled feelings OF
pleasure and regret-pleasure. that he
might once again enjoy the play with
which Mccullough, in his palmy days. was
wont to thrill his many admirers, and re-
greet that that famous actor was no more.
But lie found in O'Neill a new Virg1nius,
like and yet unlike the Virginius of the
old days. A commanding .,presence, a
splendid voice, rich. deep and beautifully
modulated to meet the various emotions
of the role, a c1ear-cut and Intelligent in
depreciation, an excellent reading of the
lines. and a performance that is at times
intensely impressive, are the factors that
go to make O'Neilis VirgInius compare
favorably with that of the eminent ira
gedian of other days. The Virginia of
Miss May Clemment is q delicate bit OF
artistic portraiture. lacking, perhaps, at
times in warmth and feeling. yet inn
.pressive The support throughout was
good. Taken in its entirety the perform
ance was far beyond the expectations of
the audience and the numerous curtain
calls testified deep appreciation. Tonight
Monte Cristo"- will be presented, and
Thursday night Mr. O'Neill will be seen
as Mark Antony In Julius Caesar.

Richard Carrie and a company of unusual

"Mary's Lamb" which was made over

He is well supported by Miss Otis.

Montgomery. as colored servant, earned
many hearty laughs. The songs were
numerous. Among them "Isetsys the

hit. though many another came close

was novel. especially in 1.-THE Modest
