TENER SIGNS HIS LAST PARDON
Governor About to Retire Grants Free.
dom to Second Degree Murderer

Governor Tener to-day attached his
signature to the last pardon he will is
sue as Governor. 1t was for Josef
BANNER who was sentenced in October,
1908, in Bucks county, to serve twenty
years in the Eastern .penitentiary for
murder in the second degree.
Last May a petition for pardon was
filed, but protest was at once enter
ed by the Bucks county authorities,
and the matter had been hanging fire
for months after being argued before
the Pardon Board. At the Board meet
ing held in December the secretary of
the Board was directed to obtain GER
tain information bearing on the case,
and on receipt of this the Board to-
day recommended the pardon. The
papers were at once made out and sent
to Governor Tener, and he affixed his
signature of approval. That was his
last pardon.
With the disposition of the Banzner
case the Board of Pardons has disposed
of every case before it, and when the
new Board comes into existence. next
week, it will begin on an entirely new
calendar.

MISS barrymore clever
IN A HOPELESS Play
Her Art and That of Bruce McRae All
That Save 1.-THE Shadow From Be-
ing Utterly isappointing-Piece
Holds Brief for Home Wreckers

Only the rare artistry Of Miss Ethel
Barrymore and Mr.. Bruce McRae, aided
by FIVE other capable performers, saved
"The Shadow" a new Frohman play by
Dario Niccodemi and Michael Morton,
from being dismal failure in the Ma
iestic Theatre last night.
Miss Barrymore had the hardest role,
perhaps, that she ever attempted to
fill. She, by the way, has developed
from the slightly Young girl who ten
years ago delighted audiences as much
by her youthful graces as by her bud
ding. histrionic ability, into more ma
tured actress of infinitely more finished
dramatic power. 1t must have been
terrific strain upon Miss Barrymore
physical and intellectual powers to have
saved "The Shadow" from being
hopelessly dull and uninteresting play.
There can be little if any excuse for
the theme and at times the audience
would have lost all interest in it had
not Miss Barrymore aided by her com
petent support, saved it by sheer
strength Of her personality and good
acting.
But "The Shadow" is not worth Miss
Barrymore's time There is no reason
why an actress such as she should tax
her strength almost to the breaking
point in an endeavor to keep such a
play out of the discard where it is
destined very soon to 90.
'The Shadow" carries no message.
The lines are heavy and ALMOST devoid
of all humor, The piece is painfully,
harrowingly and unnecessarily depress.
ing Briefly stated the play holds the
brief for home-wreckers by endeavorng
in some measure to excuse home-wrecli-
ing. There is nothing in "The Shadow"
to appeal even to that class of calloused
theatregoers who can become interested
in play that is 'off color" for it
even lacks the clever lines and funny
situations that are necessary to make
morbid play presentable.
The crowd in the Majestic last night
filed every seat and many persons were
turned away at the box office. No one
could blame Miss Barrymore. Mr. Me.
Rae and the rest of the company, nor
the Infringement of the Majestic, for
the disappointment that "The Shadow"
proved to be.
We doubt if any group of actors ever
tried more valisntly to make piece
go" Miss Barrymore was on the
stage almost all the time and put her
whole soul into her almost hopeless
task. The quality of her acting com
PEELED close attention and won merited
appreciation of her efforts, as was
shown at the close of the second act
when she was called to the footlights
n dozen times to acknowledge applause.
1t was simply a case in which the plav
proved failure despite the most en-
thusiastic and expert treatment by the
performers, 1.-THE Shadow" simply was
tried and found wanting and its failure
could not have been anticipated either
by Miss Barrymore or the management
of the Majestic.
