THE ORPHEUM

The Orpheum Stock last night rem
dered for the first time the four act
drama, The Vampire, in an excellent
manner, especially for the opening
night. The play, while not of large
cast. has a story that runs deep. 1t
is Of the final redemption and sacrifice
Of a woman known as The Vampire,
who. naturally good, is thrown into
her circumstances by one who
wronged her and who proved finally
to be the father of the one man she
did love-and sacrificed. The story is
strong one and full of shameful
truth. However the sentiment of the
play is the best.
The stock members playing parts
showed themselves and their abilities
in a pleasing manner. Miss Edna
Marshall playing the vampire had an
opportunity to display her talents as
an emotional actress, which she did;
playing upon the motions of those
who witnessed it last night, making an
impression favorable to the play and
to her own abilities. 1t is in parts
like this that Miss Marshall proves
her value to the Orpheum players.
Albert Patterson as Robert Sterling,
the fance of Miss Helen Madison
and in love with the vampire whom he
believes good, threw the same SINGER
ity into his part that has made him
so popular in the leads. Miss Deane
as Helen Madison. played a part sweet
with honest lovetof good and Robert
Sterling. Louis ]. Morgan played a
heavy part as a gentleman CRATER and
crook. He was somewhat overbear-
ing probably from the fact that the
role did not seem to fit him, Harry
Joyner, as a fair gambler, Mollie
Fisher as an Irish maid, and Roy Van
Fossem as Sterlings valet did credit
to their parts, each lending neat per-
sonal touches. J. Francis O'Reilley,
as Sterling's father appeared to ad-
vantage in his role.

In his engagement of Efrem ZimbaIist,

symphony concerts.
Though only 26 years old Zimbalist

in Europe and in America. Two years
ago the young Russian married the
famous soprano. Alma Gluck. since
when both have appeared many times
on the same concert programs.
OF his performances the critics in

ANTAGONIST OF PRINCIPLE.
C. p. Scott, Editor Manchester, Eng
Guardian, in New York Evening

P0Ses
The fact that the breach between
the United States and the central
powers should take place on a ques-
ton of international law and right is
not accidental. 1t arises out of the
fundamental antagonism of principle.
1t is not the ethical aspect of the sub
marine outrages which is really most
important, but the easy overriding of
law and right when these come into
conflict with an immediate supposed
national interest. which has been the
startling characteristic of German
policy and action from the first day
of the war. If, as war goes on, more
material aims come in. as they are
bound to do. you as most disinterested
of great belligerent powers. might help
to moderate and rationalize them. AS
to the value OF your assistance 1t is
beyond question. If rightly directed
and co-ordinated with our military
needs and activities. How can the aid
of scores of millions of the mast ener-
getic ingenious and resolute people in
the world be negligible? 1t must in
the end be decisive.
