Lole Fuller.


 To put dancing on basis with the inc arts has been the notable en- deavor Of some half a dozen artists of the last few years, but 1t IS prop able that none of them nave uonc more to popularize classic danclns than Lofe Fuller. who, at the neau U of a cast of 35 persons, appears at J:ckson's theatre, this evening. There are besides Miss Fuller ana neT rn,.ses- two solo dancers who had not been taught under her instructlons. These are Gertrude Won .Axen ana Irene Sanden. They are celebrated European creators of their own art, each different in itself. and have been engaged especially for Miss Fullers s American tour The programme con- sists of a series of solo dances. inter pret1ng with bodily motion the music of Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Durano, Rameau. Mozart, Chopin, Rubinstein Brahms. Schubert and Strauss, and at the end of the ballet of light, giv- en by Miss Fuller and her musess Miss yon Axen is noteworthy in her first and last productions. He IS or the Teuton type and her interpreta- ton of Beethoven's funeral march IS impressive in it's restrained mental agony, its hopless woe. In her last dance. a march from Schubert, she gives a totally victorious march. vig- orous and buoyant. Miss Irene San den is quite different type of dancer. She is extremely light, airy, abandon ed and her most pleasing role is Tn fappv. carefree music. Her delicate. imaginative conception of one of the Strauss valses is a wonderful bit or vfsualfzatfon. and her Bacchanale of Rubinstein is the mad dance of a spirit drunk with youth. Orchidee, ti1e t1rsf muse. gives two solo dances which are pleasing. There is march by Mozart and pantomirne dance with all the muses portraying the daring huntress, Diana. The biggest and most spectacular dance is that of Loie Fuller and the muses in the ballet of light.
