The following is taken from a Chi
cago paper:
Next - Mrs Hopper the surprise
OF the evening CHANGED to be a young
girl, Ina Claire. A child in her teens,
this young person stepped out of the
ranks and instantly displayed such
talent III the rough, such nimicry, grace,
emotion, and variety in charm and
gift, as to attract almost establishment.
Nobody but Elsie Janice has given such
perfect limitations in Years as this
Claire girl"
The following is from one of the
Chicago papers by Ashton Stevens, one
Of Chicago's foremost dramatic critics:
1.-The surprise of the night was Ina
Claire. 1t is no longer question of
who is she? Where did she come from?
She arrived with glory last night; and
by the st inglorious routes known
by the modern Show. She loosed upon
us a couple of limitations I wanted
to jump with Jupiter when the band
began Elizabeth Murray's Dublin Rag,
hut 1 sat to joy.
"And it was the same when she broke
into Harry LADDERS Daisy song-not
only the songs, but the talk and the
face and the burr and-well, the best
Lauder I have seen since Harry. 1t
was Immense. Such an imitation had
to be immense to sweep a 1910 audi
ence as it swept last night. Miss Ina
Claire is one of the neatest finds of
the season.
Miss Claire has relatives in Topeka
with whom she stopped while here last
winter, and her father. J. r. Pagan,
was formerly CT Topeka.
