The tableaux viviants are thing of
the past. The weeks of preparation
and posing and worry reached their
brilliant climax last night when the
types of English beauties this city can
boast appeared. in costumes a century
old behind the footlights, and to the
cheering and clapping of an enthusi-
astic audience reawakened the dor
mant interest in the famous old works
of English art.
Even more crowded house greeted
them than on the opening night. and
the entire program flowed more
smoothly. 1t was altogether a thor
oughly enjoyable evening, with a splen-
did orchestra rendering the old tunes,
with shorter periods between the diff
ferent living pictures and a more per-
feet posing than on the French night.
The dances were just as good, and the
opening scene of THE AIalP' was beau
tifully executed.
TRAGIC MUSE SCORES
The picture that really may be said
to have made the hit of the evening
was Mrs. Francis Carolan's interpre-
tation of The Tragic Muse" as orig
inaIIy posed by Mrs. Siddons in Rey-
nold's famous picture. In tones of sub
dued gold with a more vivid added
touch of color, with her long black
hair braided and hanging over her
shoulders and her head held high, Mrs.
Carolan looked even a more tragic
muse than the original, and a warm,
striking. vital muse at that. Her cos
tune posture and expression were per-
feet. and the minutest detail of the
great picture, even to the faithful por-
trayaI of the background, was shown.
Mrs. George Pope made charming
Nell Gwynn, after Lely's famous
painting, and Mrs. c. Frederick Kohl
was a stunning Duchess of Devon
shire" her masses of blonde hair in
rows of curls and her arms heaped
high with roses. Mrs Oscar Cooper
was a brilliant FURNISHED type of a
Burne-Jones sketch in her pose AS the
''Delphic oracle" and little Miss Frances
Ames made a pretty Age of Inno-
cence," though facing the wrong way
to the original

HANDSOME GOWNS SEEN
The gowns seen in the audience were
