CAST OF AS YOU LIKE I
NEW AMSTERDAM THEATRE
Miss Ruth St. Denis and the Rus
sian Balalaika Orchestra.

Miss Ruth St Denis, in dances symbocai
of the religion and customs of ancient
Egypt and the Russian BaIalaika Orchestra
provided at the New Amsterdam Theatre
Yesterday afternoon one of the most de-
lightful entertainments Of the season.
Supported by a company of fifty. Miss St.
Denis presented in beautiful settings four
numbers: Prayer to the Nile Gods" In
which she pictured the annual thank offer
ings that were given to the gods, In the
form of offerings cast upon the rising wat
ers of the Nile: The Tamboura," q dance
typical of the Feast of Eternity me-
mortal festivity given by the aristocracy
during the early dynasties; The Mystery
of Isis" in which the goddess manifests
herself as Meth and Hathor, and THE
Festival of Ra-' in which she danced the
Dance of Day" typical of the rise and fall
Of Egypt. and the Dance of Night" indica-
tive of the Trial of the Soul.
Miss St Denis gave evidence of thought
full care in the preparation of her dances,
which We're deliberately and tastefully
staged. individually her performance was
successful in the highest degree. Her facial
! expression and her graceful rhythm OF
movement seemed to be accomplished only
by thorough understanding of what she was
doing. And that conviction which appeared
10 be hers transmitted TO the audience
with marked: effectiveness. Miss st. Denis,
In her desire to give color to her settings,
however, employs numerous asststants,
MANY of whom destroyed the very effect
that she wished TO produce. This par
ticuiarly true in the banquet scene In THE
Feast of Eternity" There the dancing and
the conversation and the general effect was
anything but old Egyptian. 1T was only
when Miss st. Denis appeared upon the
scene and all the others were quiet that
the Illusion was established and sustained.
The Bslalaika Orchestra again won for
itself the heartiest appreciation. W. W. An
dreeff the conductor. presented varied
programme of beautiful Russian folk songs,
both sentimental and comic which in sim
piicity of theme and in artistic expression
were a delight to the ear and the imagi-
nation Perhaps his most successful num-
her WAS the Song of the Boatmen of the
ToIga.' wherein, by the use of onamatopeic
mira sing, the stimulation Of the Eolga bar
gees singing as they pulled the heavy
barges up stream. was startling realistic.
Other delightful songs were NJ. Andreeffs
own Butterfly Valse," II Have Been
Dancing With Gnat.' and "Oh. My Gar
den, Nv Garden The latter is supposed
To be addressed 10 the flowers in a garden,
which bloom so soon under the tender care
OF the gardener, only quickly TO fade and
die
None who love the poetry Of symbolic
song and dance should miss these matinees,
which continue to-day, Thursday and FRI
day at 2:15 o'clock

THE DRAMA
The Sothern-MarIoWe Perform
ance of Gas You Like It."

The second week of the highly success
full short season OF Shakespeare plays at
the Broadway Theatre began last night
with q revival Of LAS You Like It. This
play will be repeated tonight and to-mor-
row night. Romeo and Juliet" Will he
given Thursday and Friday nights this
week and Saturday afternoon; Hamlet.
Saturday evening. Mr.. Sothern and Miss
Marlowe appeared together in "As You
Like It for the first time last season. Last
night they deepened the favorable impress
sion they had made last March. In LAS
You Like IT. MI. Sothern prefers to play
Jaoues He leaves Orlando to a member
OF his company. Mr.. Frederick Lewis; Mr..
Sothern's preference is a wise one He
plays Jaaues better than he would play
Orlando. After a week Of Macbeth the
change must be restful, for Jaoues has
but to ''moralize the spectacle" and suck
melancholy out of song. Playing
Jaques must be for Mt. Sothern like taking
q profitable holiday. So be it. There is, at
all events, no better Jaques than his. And
for that reason give him welcome.
Miss Mariowe's Rosalind is blithe as
ever. At some moments in this character
she is at her best; at other moments she is
so far from her best that you wonder what
imp of carelessness has bewitched her. For
she can do all this role as well she does
portions of it. When she is at her best
what a joyous. delightful creature she is!
When she falls short of what you know
she can do you can scarcely be blamed for
resenting her lapse from skill. But when
all is said there remains the high spirited
charm Of her Rosalnd. the pleasant
memory of her delicious vooing and her
being won. Miss Marlowes Rosalind has
long been favorite with the playgoers.
and the audience last night was pleased
with her performance any audience has
been since first she won recognition in this
part.
The performance of LAS Iou Like It. Is,
a whole about the best in the Sotheru-
Marlowe series: it certainly yields large
percentage Of enjoyment any other
effort by these popular players. There is
nothing new 10 be said about if, but there
is the same old plea sure to be derived from
witnessing it And the close attention and
literally expressed qualification Of the spec
tators not the least of the facts worthy
10 be recorded. It is greatly to be hoped
that before next spring Mr.. Sothern and
Miss Marlowe will give New York another
month of Shakespeare. II would seem i'm
possible for any other city to held for them
greater Inducements. since New York fills
the theatre whenever they play. Some one
wrote the other day of their laudable
effort I" make Shakespeare popular" That
Numbering phrase. but characteristics
Of much that is forced 10 do duty COM
ment the contemporary stage. The
popularity of Shakespeare among the
''plair ordinary people of this country
VIII never be understood by certain kinds
of mind. Happily ii is unnecessary that it
should he understood by them, Meanwhile
Shakespeare has made Mr., Sothern and
Miss Narowe popular indeed. A. W.

CONSUL RECOGNIZES PRINCE.

Some weeks ago an article published in
The Tribune spoke of the visit to this cou1l-
try of Freydoun Malcolm Khan and said
that the title of prince commonly applied TO
him was incorrect, as in Persia the only
princes We're members of the royal family.
The Tribune is informed by the Persian
Consul General in this city that the Shah
Nasseddine in 1886 issued an imperial de-
cree stating that in recognition of the mer-
its of Prince Malcolm Khan. his Ambassador
at London, I'VE have bestowed the title of
prince-that is to say, the highest title OF
nobility of the empire-on his son, Frey
doun Khan" The Consul General states
that after investigation he has recognized
the right of Prince Freydoun Malcolm Khan
TO the title.
