Thomas E. Shea in "The Bells"

In THE Bells" which he played last
night at the Academy, Thomas E. Shea
proved that neither he nor the play has
lost popularity. Mr.. Shea was greeted
with applause upon his first appearance
and almost his every move thereafter
brought forth an outburst. The role of
Matthias is one of the most effective OF
all the big roles played by Mr.. Shea, anu
last night he was as intensely Impressive
as ever.
The story of THE Bells is an old
one. A poverty-stricken burgomaster,
Matthias who. in this instance. Is Mr..
Shea, kills rich seed merchant to obtain
gold which the merchant Is CARRYING.
Though the burgomaster Immediately
becomes rich, nobody suspects that he
killed the man whose horse and hat are
found, but whose body has been destroy
cd in a lime kiln. The merchant haunts
the burgomaster. and the bells or the
merchants sleigh, as when he hrst called
upon the burgonaster. ring constantly in
tried. sentenced to hang and dies
strangled by tie around his neck.
William Dickerman, as Hans, an old
poacher. and Jack Amory as Father
Walter, a farmer. in comedy roles played
particularly well. James J. Cassidy, as
Christian Beme, quartermaster of the
Eendarmes, was well received. as also
was Frederick Going as Anette, daughter
OF the burgomaster.
In DIR JekyIl and Mr.. Hyde" Tuesday
evening Mr. Shea brought to the tit 9
role. or rather roles, a realism which
made the lower nature Of the famous
dual personality terribly vivid Mr.. Shea
was master of the part at all times
His rapid changes from one part to the
other were as startling as ever, and his
sudden appearances as Mr.. Hyde fairly
caused his audience to gasp
James J. Cassidy appeared as DR.. Ian
Won and John E. Gilbert as Gabriel Ut
terson. the lawyer. Jack Amory. as Abra-
ham Poole, Dr. Jekyil's servant, was ad-
nirabIe, and Frederick Going. in the role
of Susan, the girl servant. was realistic
as the curious and wheedling domestic.
DIR. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is announc-
ed for Saturday night Friday night
1.-The Bel 5" is to be presented. At the
matinees today, tonight and Saturday
afternoon THE whirlpool will be re-
peated.
