THE ACTOR AND THE AUDIENCE

To bo successful tho actor must
play on the sympathies and feelings
of an audience, just as a violinist
would on tho strings of his instru-
ment- II thero Is something the mat
ter the response will be false just as
surely as tho note will bo bad IL the
vlolinist fingers badly.
This knowledge of audiences md Of
tho way to appeal to them has been
the gift of oil our greatest people OF
tho stage. Sardou studied audiences
moro than he did plays, md so did
Mansfield. George Ado knows people,
and he is human. Therefore he strikes
the human noto in his play and inter
ests us. A player can detect instantly
II there is something wrong In per-
formanco or with the audience. There
is very subtle sort OF telepathy
which goes from actor to audience and
from audience to actor that informs
each of tho exact state OF what tho
statesmen would call the entente cor
dialc.
II the audience Is unintcrested or
cold, then tho actor knows Immediate
ly that his art has failed him II the
people in front are interested it helps
the actor Sometimes with great
success like Tho Fair Coed" which
generally strikes people from the very
first on account of its youthful Mt
mosphere. an audience on particular
night will be unresponsive- No mat
ter how hard the people on tho stage
may work. they feel that thero Is
something lacking. and tho perform
ance suffers In spontaneity just that

Chicago Americans New Pilot.

To judge from his method of han
ding the team In the first few weeks
OF the baseball season Catcher Billy
Sullivan Is picked as an able successor
to Fielder Jones as manager OF the
Chicago Americans. When 1t comes
to knowledge of the game and ability
to handle men Sullivan VIII prove just
as efficient as Jones or course the
work Is new to him In way, though
he has always been Jones' principal
adviser and perhaps his additional
duties will interfere with his work but
there. is no one on the Chicago team so
well fitted for tho position as Sulli
van
1t has been argued that a catcher has
too much to do In filling his position
that is. If he be an intelligent one
to look after ball team. but Sullivan
Is a man of capacity and may be able
TO do both.
