For popular success there is no play in

and when later in his experiments tho
baser nature OF Mr. Hyde becomes su-
preme. his work is terrifying Ia its grew
some realism. His changes from one
character 10 another are cleverly done,
and the stage effects well managed. The
supporting company proves most cOmpe-
