NFW STANLEY PARK.

The recent apprOprlauOn or three thousand dollars by the city to start development in this new park in the North End, along the elaborate lines shown by the map in the su- Derintendent of parks office, with it's tennis courts, baseball diamonds, large skating pond, pretty walks and drives, and beautiful groves, has in
 terested many of our citizens in titys recreation grounds. Situated but twenty minutes walk from Main street at the end of the North Stan ley street trolley line, opposite the new Stanley school it is easily access sible to the residents of the central city, The fine concrete road 'eXtend- ing in front of the park adds largely to it's attra ctiveneSS, and as it is in tended to shortly extend this perma- nent pavement to Hartford. it will make this section even more popular than at present. The many beauti- full bungalow and cottage houses re- gently erected by the management of the Park Land Co.,, whose property all borders on the park, gives evi- Gence that the people of New Britain gre getting away from the provincial idea, that it is necessary to live in the more cOngested part of the city, The easy plan of paying for lots, and the sure increase of the value of land

myself into my part-a villain of the deepest mould-with all the maligant power I could command
 Each season would find me plaving a villain Or the heavy as it is termed in the profession. These parts offered no variety. They were all of one stamp. Their speeches, pretentious, tawdry, overloaded With ornament. crammed with high sounding words and far-fetched figures, made me wonder at the audacity of playWrights who dared so to presume upon the in telligence of the public.
 "Of course I had to have sense of humor to balance the storm of dis approval which continually greeted my criminal activities. At last the monotOny and insignificance of my lot palled, and I began to long for fresher and more fertile pastures. I wanted to do something worth while on the stage. But I had not looked around long when I realized that had ton. I had been so closely associated with villains that no one would be- lieve for an instant I could play any thing else.''

My criminal intentions knew no bounds. l held up scenes while I emphasized my wicked ness. I succeeded in my mission. New CT have I heard uch a volume of hisses as greeted me every time l came on or went off the stage.'
 The actor believes that the lurid melodramas will eventually return. When people tire of motion pictures they will again demand actors in the flesh in plays dealing with elemental passions. And believe me or not" he added, "those cheap melodramas of Owen Davis and Theodore kremer were not any worse than a good many of the plays we see for $2 today on Broadway"
 Mr. Miltern confessed that his am bition is to play whimsical characters, "such as the creations of Barrie he said, "or those with which Sir Charles Wyndham has always been identl- fled v

 Tries Wall Street.
 "I decided'' he went on, that be- fore I would play villain roles in cheap melodrama again I would quit the stage. I sought hard but could not obtain a footing on the onward and upward trail. So I kept faith with my resolution. I left the stage and accepted a position with friends in Wall street I invested $S,OOO, all that l had saved from years of touring up and down the far places of the coun try and proceeded to get rich quick.

A sadder and wiser man, I wandered into the office of A. H. Woods, broke, and disheartened.

and who, by force of circumstances, could not seem to rise above his en- vironment."
 Rose Above Environment.
 John Miltern, however, has risen above the environment that threatened to engulf him permanently. He has come triumphantly to the top of his profession, and today he is regarded as one of our few remaining actors who have striven successfully to in dividualize their performances, in stead of considering them as mere opportunities to display certain ener- gies or to make certain grimaces and gestures. Others may give a picture more critically exact, may read with more of the elocutionist's skill, may even dissect a part with a truer philos- ophy; but few will grasp more vivid- ly the prominent features of a char acter, or give them haN the expres- sion, half the earnestness the reality that he does.
 Is Convincing.
 l was particularly struck with this quality in his latest performance. An over-heroic role, MT. Miltern made the agent entirely plausible and convinc- ing. He seemed to feel what he repre- sented. He played in a quiet gentle manly style, with considerable feeling and subtlety. The suggestion of force was always present and this mere sug- gestlon made his personation seem more manly and natural
 You feel this concealed strength when you talk to Mr. Miltern. He is a much younger looking man than you expect to find. His figure is tall and slender. His features are those you are accustomed to associate with artists. His eyes are soft and dreamy but with a blase expression strangely mingling with their gentleness.

 T was always interested in the the ater," he began, ''and naturally this in- terest resulted in organizing an anna teur dramatic society in my home town, New Britain, Conn.,, but before l had a chance to prove to my fam fly and friends any genuine histrionic ability, I was given an opportunity to go on the professional stage in a melo- drama Which was to tour under the d1recton of Sullivan, Harris and WoodS. considered myself forum ate in making my debut with so little preparation and training.

 Gillette Finds Him.
 My next engagement was with William Gillette on his farewell I played the heavies in his repertoire. both in this country and England. The managers began to see," he laughed that I could act in $2 drama. Subse- quent engagements were in Officer 666,' The Man Inside and Inno- cent"
 MT. Miltern related an interesting experience with David Belasco.
 'When MT. Belasco sent for me to assume a leading part in The Man In- side,' I was naturally elated But when l learned my part was that of dope fiend and seCond-story worker, I was frankly disappointed. I remonstrat- ed with MT. BelascO against being seen again in an unsympathetic role, but to no effect He simply jollied me along, telling me of pretentious his- tOrical drama, he was to stage in which I would be given a prominent part.
 "I sulked at rehearsals and dis played no interest whatever in my part or in the play. In fact, I was ready to welcome dismissal. The old man." as MT. Miltern affectionate1y called him, 'let me severely alone. One day I uttered some minor criti cism of the character and his face inn mediately frightened up. AS he after wards confided: T knew I had you then; I was just waiting for that lit tie Outburst.' MT. BcIasco seems to posses an uncanny insight into char acter. He discovers traits that no one had detected. Moreover he knows the secret of harmOnizatiOn None of his players ever usurp the limelight to the discredit of the other actors. Perhaps, his power lies in that fact that, though his mind is of a psychic 1 and philosophic cast, it is eminently l practical in the application of his in ferences. l hope some day. he add ed, ito do something really notable l under his direction
 I asked MT. Miltern what he con- sidered the essentials of good acting. l
 Secret of Real Acting.
 The power to make your audience | feel that your thought transcends your l words and deeds," he replied, that | what you are thinking is infinitely more important than what you are saying and teamwork You hear such phrases as uniformly fine acting or finely balanced cast They simply mean that the players are not trying to seek individual glory at the expense of others; that they are all contribut- ing to a harmonious picture. You don't find successful baseball teams when the players sacrifice team work to individual efforts. The same rule applies in the theater."
 The actor expressed admiration for his present role. It is really the most sympathetic part I have ever played. Though for that matter I have always contrived to win a measure of sym pathy, even when playing the most de- spicable characters. Perhaps, my audience looked beyond my words and a ctions into my mind and saw that I was not as black as I was painted.
