THE NATIONAL.
Ofis skinner.

The return OF Otis Skinner in the in
comparable Balzac comedy, The Honor
OF the Family attracted an audience
TO the profound impression made here last
season by both the star and his play
AS was the case during the prior engage
ment, the applause last night was as
spontaneous as It was generous, and the
comedy and the actors completely won
the favor Of the audience at all times.
The Honor Of the Family is a dra-
matte production which bears the closest
comparison with the>better class Of plays
Of the French school. OF which ''Dlv0r-
cons, Diplomacy" and ''Fr0u FrOU'
may be cited as the more familiar exam
pies The establishment at the outset OF
a definite train OF action, which is pur-
sued with continuously sustained interest
TO a perfectly logical denOuement, gives
the whole play an Irresistible appeal II
IS play that will please the intellectual
theatergoer as well as the seeker for
amusement. or the lover OF melOdTamatic
effects. And through it all is apparent
the genius OF the greatest novelist the
French have ever produced, whose touch
IS unnistakable wherever IL may be en-
countered.
AS Col Philippe Brideau. Otis Skin
ner has accomplished what has been
everywhere pronounced as the distinct
triumph Of his career. He may have en-
acted roles more ambitious. more serious.
more heroic. but never one more pictUr-
esQue or one IN which he has so COM
pietely evaded conventional lines, OF more
successfully sunk his personality. Il IS
sn artistic achievement Of which no &C
tor on our stage could be otherwise than
proud to have been the author. In the
creation Of this part ne has IN one
bound. reached that goal toward which
he has for years been contending-the
topmost position among our native act
ors.
An excellent company surrounds Mr..
Skinner. and It Is for the most part the
same as that Of last season, including
A. G. Andrews, the veteran character
actor. as Rouget; Miss Percy Hasweu,
as Flora Brazier: Harry Burkhardt, as
Kousi; Alfred Hudson, r.. as Ors'anto;
r y Ferguson. as Mignonet. Sarah
Padden. as La Vedie, and Frederick Sar-
gent. as Max Gilet.
There Is no question that The
Honor OF the Family" and the acting
Of Mr.. Skinner as Col Brideau, con-
stitute one OF the dramatic events OF the
present season.

THE ACADEMY.
MeIodrama.

The attraction last night at the New
Academy was Charles z. Blaney's new
Western melodrama, The Sheriff OF
Angel Gulch," with no less a figure than
Young Buffalo. the King Of the Wild
West" ss the hero and central figure Of
the play. the scenes Of which are laid
in the region of Arizona and attempts
to depict the wild life Of the earlier DAYS
in that then "far distant West"
The fact that 8lr. Blaney is both author
and manager OF the play gives ample as
