 The estate is strongly English in it's aspect, modelled by the tragedian from the homes of British nobles he saw and coveted during his youthful years as a transforming Shakespearean actor in the provinces. A high wooden fence sur- l rounds Brucewood," and broad paths and numerous flower beds heighten the charms of the natural forest
 It was in the shady hooks of Bruce wood'' that Miss Hamper visualized Ros- alind. And it was there that Mr. Man tell, in studying again the fine old lines of the melancholy Jaques. found ser mons in stones and books in running brooks"
 Miss Hamper played Rosalind for the first time in Toronto on the evening of Tuesday, October 5, of the present sea son. How well she had caught the spirit ot the fascinating Rosalind and the TO- mantle atmosphere of the Forest of Ar den was reflected in the enthusiasm of that first-night audience. She had dis carded much of the old stage business of the part, set down in the prompt books" substituting for it more natural prompting that came to her under tke trees of "Brucewood. her own Forest of Arden, and these innovations proved are they in spontaneous comedy that springs from the situation when the bashful Rosalind assumes the disguise of boy. | Of MT. Robert Bruce Mantell little need be said for his magnificent support of true ideals, his perfect art and his splendid culture have placed him at the head of dramatic actors, honored. rev vered for his excellent art.
 It may be recalled, en passant, that MT. Mantel was born in Irvine, Ayrshire not far from the birthplace of Robert Burns, February z. 1854. Five years later his parents moved to Belfast, where the boy attended school until he was 16. It was the intention to make of him a bar rister. on account of a natural bent to- ward oratory. but success in amateur theatricals turned him to the stage. He made his professional debut in the The atre Royale.s Rochdale. England. October 21 1876. as the sergeant in "Arrah-na- Pogus''
 l Two years later Mantell came to Amer lea and played for the first time in this country at the Leyland opera house. Al bsny. N. r., in the support of Mime. Modjeska, appearing at Tybalt in Romeo and Juliet" After touring season he went back to England to play leads with Shakespearean company, headed by Miss Ellen Wallis.
 In 1882, Mantell returned to America as leading man. appearing first in/"The
 World" and "The Romany Rye" Next as Loris Ipanoff in Fedora" supportins
 Fanny Davenport he scored a hit that led to his elevation to stellardom. His 1 first appearance as a star was in Tan 1 gled Lives" at the old Fifth Avenue the atre, New York, December 1s 1886. l Then followed a long succession of ro-

mantle plays, in which Mantell won fame and fortune, "Monbars,' The Corsican Brothers" The Marble Heart and "The Face in the Moonlight, among others. IL was the habit of the times for star to build up a repertoire of his successes, in- stead of dropping an old play when new one was staged. Into his repertoire Mantell occasionally introduced classic. first. Romeo and Juliet" then Hamlet. then "Othello' and the rest. He kept presenting new plays. such as The Dag ger and the Cross and "The Light of Other Days,' but finally the classics crowded out the romantic dramas. and he became exclusively classic star.
 With 12 plays in his repertoire. Mir. Mantell has no little difficulty ;n ar ranging for each city he visits a reper- toire to meet the wishes of lovers of the classics. Try conscientiously as he may the tragedian always finds some one who feels sighted; some one who wished particularly to see this or that play he has omitted. Or. sometimes 8 play is desired by the writer of one of the numerous letters he receives is included in the repertoire, but given on night or an afternoon the writer cannot attend.
 When such worries become burden soVe, MT. Mantelf finds comfort. so hic critics relate. in recalling an inci- l dent that happened to a one-night stand in Pennsylvania nearly third of century ago, when he had just added Hamlet" to a repertoire of TO- mantle plays like "Monbars," The Face in the Moonlight" and The Cor

 This season, he brings to Birmingham three brand new productions, AS You Like It. and Julius Ceasar'' and Bull wer Lyttons "Richelieu,' one of the few dramas on the Shakespearean model not written by the Eizabethan master that have survived. All of his other produc- tions have been rebuilt and repanted practically throughout, and are said to be the most elaborate and picturesquely effective ever carried by star on tour O. America The costuming, entirely new throughout, is in keeping with the scenery and lighting effects.
 Though he has staged his plays law ishly, following the trend of Batterton, Garrick. Kean, the Booths and Irving, each of whom improved over his pre- decessors as new methods of staging were invented, MT. Mantell has never lost sight of the fact that the greatest phase of Shakespeare is the great dra- matic poetry of his lines, and these lines
 
 old tragedians, and not in the parlor- conversation tones of followers of the new fads. He speaks the lines as Shakes peare himself taught Burbage to speak them, and as they have passed down through the generations of the royal line,' in unbrolsen tradition. His King Lear, lconsequently, and his Macbeth and Brutus and the other great personages of his repertoire, are vizualized to au- diences today much as they were to Elizabethan audiences. Since the death of Sir Herbert Tree in England MT Mantell remains the only tragedan oi first importance, either side of the Al lantic, preserving the traditions in thei purity.
 In Miss Genevieve Hamper, Mr Man tell possesses one of the rarely fortunat, actresses who compass the long gamut of Shakespeares heroines while still young and girlsh enough to look the parts to perfection. Nearly all the he roines of Shakespeare are girls in their teens or their early twenties: Ophelia | Desdemona Juliet. Cordela, Rosalind Even Lady Macbeth is young matron, and Cleopatra is in the height of her youthful charms. But the long and diff ficult preparaton for Shalespearean career usually finds the actress fading before she has arrived at the climax of her ambitions Miss Hamper is the first | the American stage has had since Mary Anderson, who has acquired an exten- sive repertoire while still in the bloom uf early youth. She presents. in conse- quence. the loveliest classic figure now known to the stage.
 Never did a stage Rosalind study Shakespeare's charming heroine in more ideal surroundings than those in which Miss Genevleve Hamper. who win play the part with MT. Mantel in the "As You Like It. matinee next Wednesday afternoon. worked and dreamed during | the past summer.

 To those pessimists who have predicted hat Shakespeare would be supplanted on the stage by the modernists, MT. Robert Mantell, the great dramatic actor, and his superb Shakespearean productions, are living, breathing examples of the fu- tility of such reasoning, for since MT. Mantell essayed to present Shakespeare san repertoire, some several years ago, beginning with his triumphant seasons pn Broadway, to the present en tourage, he has verified the fact that Shakespeare is alive, active, insstent, the supreme test of the actor and the magnificent .hoice of the discriminating spectator.
