has scaled to new heights with his
feminine glory Accepted by the rest
OF the country, but the endorsement
withheld, Eltinge apparently has
forced the skeptical to receive him with
more than passing approval in THE
Caroline Girl" The wonder of the
women in that he is able to invade
their domain in the graceful and effec-
tive wearing of beautiful gowns, and
amazing the men through his ability
to impersonate the eternal feminine
with such realism without crossing
the line which would bring disgust
rather than amusement, Eltinge prom
ises to have his longest New York run
in his new play.
1.-THE Caroline Girl" is, of course,
built especially for the representations
of Eltinge. He first appears in civil
ian dress, and then, as in 1.-THE Fascin-
ating Widow" the way is cleared for
his appearance in the latest gowns by
the placing of wages as to his ability |
to deceive friends dressed IS women.
Pictures Excite Comment
To those unfamiliar with the work
of Eltinge there is something even in
his pictures displayed in the entrance
of the Knckerbocker theatre that de-
fies fathoming. Entering the theatre
for the opening performance man
and woman, evidently man and wife,
stepped from the crowd for moment
and studied large portrait of Eltinge.
They commented on his thoroughly
masculine countenance as revealed in
the picture in male attire. By the side
of this portrait was another just as
large 1t showed Eltinge in low cut
evening gown a huge wig of auburn
hair and dazzling head-dress.
And, now who is this?" queried the
wife, rs this his leading woman?"
The peace of the family was threat +,
ened as the husband explained and the t
wife was still unconvinced and con- t
templated the two pictures for several c
minutes before entering the theatre
to be convinced. t
1.-THE Caroline Girl" as well as il
serving as an acceptable vehicle for t
Eltinges representations, is melo-
dramatic farce which moves swiftly n
and increases in entertaining qualities b
as it progresses.
Margaret AugIin in Doublet.
The same glimpse which revealed u
Eltinge in new play and new gowns
showed the Rialto, Margaret Anglin
in doublet and hose. Opening for a
limited run at the Hudson theatre in

Anglin was we'll received. The repro -
duction was deliberately staged, and
though Miss Anglin was engagingly &c
pretty as the shepherd youth her Ros-
alind was in no wise epochal. '
