actress, brittle, enameled, vivid, of the
stage STACEY, and yet expert. When
she was born a fairy godmother came
to her cradle with the tidings that she
would never, never be beautiful
But" she added, you will have style,
That will last longer" 1t is, then,

who. encrusted with jewels and clad
gowns, postured elegantly through the
sundry woes of the unhappy Gautier,
never making any of them seem quite
real but never letting any of them be-
come the least bit dull.
She was able TO rivet and hold taut
the interest of a. largely and some
what ostentatiously comprehending
audience last evening. And this was
no small feat, for the entractes-the
longest any management has ventured
to impose on a New York audience
in many day-were so unduly pro-
tracted that it was difficult each time
to remember at what stage the pre-
ceding curtain had left the distressed
heroine.
The next role which Sorel will in
troduce to her New York audiences
will be Katherine in a French version
Of the Tanning of the Shrew."
