S0thern-MarIOwe
Merchant of Venice
Lavish Production
Stars Give New Interpreta-
tiOns of Roles of ShylOck
and POrtia.

T. III. Sothern and Julia Marlowe de-
parted from their usual round of Shakes
pearean productions at the Century
Theatre last night to present "The Mer-
chant of Venice" in which they have not
appeared in several years. 1t was a
production newly staged and costumed.
Venice was suggested. principally in
glimpses through handsome draperies.
rather than being done in the realistic.
hard as nails fashion that was In vogue
in the time of their earlier performance.
There were no gondolas creaking off into
the wings as in those past days. The
aim was one of illusion rather than of
deception. The costumes. BETTING this
era of silks and satins. were more
gorgeous than in the past. and more
characteristic of that ancient time of
resplendent lavishness.
On the dramatic side Mr. Sothern ap-
pears to have intensified his portrayal
of Shyfock He stresses more than ever
the native accent of speech, combining
this with a decidedly Semitic makeup
that turns this into a racial portrait. as
Shakespeare quite possibly intended 1t
to be- 1t Is somewhat Of divergence
from the stereotyped impersonations of
the character, and marks perhaps Mr..
Sothern's most ambitious flight in a
tragic role.
Aside from the Hebraic note, Mr..
Sothern took care to bring out the under
lying human traits that make the
usurer's appeal so universal in his tragic
moments. When he discovered the flight
Of Jessica, and again when Shylock's
scheme of vengeance comes crashing
down on his own head. Mr.. Sothern made
Of him a powerfully moving figure.
OF course, he was abetted very much
by the contrast afforded by the spark
ling performance of Miss Marlowe as
Portid. She can give an ineffably light
touch to this spirited gentlewoman in
her more relaxed phases as when she is
discussing her suitors with Neriss1.
Then again in the trial scene she can
breathe firm stateliness and surety
Of purpose that make the most famous
woman lawyer stand out with statuesque
nobility.
The we'll rounded team work Of the
Sothern and Marlowe company Is again
abundantly in evidence. Frederick
Lewis's BdssGf,io, Alma Kruger's
Ne7issd, Francis Bandtsen's ArrGgoat,
Rowland Buckstone's inimitable Laatpce-
lot Gobbo. Lenore Chippendales JessicG,
and Sydney Mather's Antonio go far
toward making this most welcome ad-
dition to the seasons gifts of the theatre.

Interesting Play for Himself.

for Mr.. Gillette's clever manipulation
of the situation.
Then there were, moreover, situations
of the old fashioned kind that did not
fail to have their effect. contemptuous
as the attitude Of the modern drama
may be toward them. Like the con-
scientious star writing a play which
shall give his admirers all they want Of
him, Mr.. Gillette made himself the CEN
ire of every scene with unfailing cer-
tainty. What he accomplished in the
mere mechanics of playwriting was
quite as notable in this respect as any
other. There were minutes however. In
which even the puis,sance of the dramat-
ist failed. But 1t was nevertheless a
source Of continuous delight TO observe
what knowledge Of his craft helped
tlle author to achieve with such shoddy
material as he worked with.
Mr.. Gillette acted in the way that
has made him beloved of his public all
oveg- the country. The shambling gait,
the furtive air, the feeble plucking Of
the fingers--all were telling character
isticY of the man he had composed. He
was compelled to speak after the third
act. William Morris, Miss Miriam Sears,
Miss Myrtle Tannahin and Frank Nor
gan were some of his capable associates.
Among those in the audience were
Mr.. Howard E. Merton. the author OF
the book from which the play was writ
ten Mrs Morton. Mr.. and Mrs. Jules 5.
Bache. Mr.. Jules Glaenzer, who had q
party OF ten friends; Mrs. FRANK Dam

When William Gillette came again
before his New YORK admirers atter
years absence-this occurred last night
at the Empire Theatre-it was as an
avatar of the departed Sherlock Holmes
of blessed memory But tue popular
actor was not in the Dream Maker

and with a prison record in a Southern
country somewhere in his past. He hal

did It in lust the old-fashioned way that
made the audience open its eyes ana
wonder what in the world old iaVorltes
could not allow themselves when eic'
set out to amuse a devoted public.
Mr.. Gillette again appears. in his dou-
Bile capacity of author and actor. whlch
he has assumed with SO much success
during so many years. He wrote Ihe

tanned in a short story by Howard f.
Morton. The action of the four acts
passes in q seaside cottage near view

in which the two principals take turns

HOW TO DARKEN
GRAY HAIR
A Cincinnati Barber Tells How to
Make a Remedy for Gray Hair.

A we'll known resident of Cincinnati,
Ohio, who has been barber for more
than forty years. recently made the fol-
lowing statement:
Anyone can prepare simple mix
ture at home, at very little cost, that
will darlen gray hair, and make it
soft and glossy. To a half-pint of
water add l ounce bay rum. a small
box Of Barbo Compound and Il ounce
glycerine. These ingredients can be
bought at any drug store at very little
cost. Apply to the hair twice week
until the desired shnde is obtained.
This will make a gray-haired person
look twenty years younger. 1t is easy
to use, does not color the most delicate
scalp, is not sticky or greasy and does
not rub off"
