PARSONS. HARTFORD

Five years of careful study of a
single part is the record Of Mrs.
Fiske with the character of Mrs. AL
wing in Ghosts" to be seen here at
Parsons theater this evening and
for the first half of the week, with
a matinee Wednesday. Henrik 1b-
sen took two years to write this
great human drama. Mrs. Fiske
has devoted more than twice that
amount OF time to gaining a thor
ough knowledge Of the play to its
innermost detail and more particu-
larly the powerful central figure
about which the story revolves.
Long close student of the works
of the Norwegian master, this is the
fifth Of his characters she has por-
trayed on the stage. That she would
seem to regard 1t as the most am
bilious undertaking Of her distin-
guished career before the footlights
is borne ont by the facts. Certain
it Is that Mrs. Fiske regards Mrs.
Alvine as one Of tho most COM
polling appealing and thoroughly
human figures of modern fiction.

New York, April II Pt-Two large

of his Ballet MecaniQue" at Carne-

They responded with boos cat calls

to walk out. Eugene Coos Goossens

The end of the third movement
seemed to catch the audience un-

merely hull in the rendition. Man

Splans for effectively combating
the drive of the coal barons to
smash the union. Tremendous
interest centers around this con-
ference throughout the whole
district.
There is a widespread belief that
the conference of union officials will
recommend a nationwide relief cam
paign for the strikers and a general
assessment upon all members of the
American Federation of Labor.
Many Rumors.
In many mining camps there are
rumors that the conference will call
on railroad workers to refuse to ham
die scab coal. There are also rumors
that the conference will recommend
the calling of general strike in sup
port of the miners.
In official labor circles here the
idea is secuted that the conference
will do any more than issue a call for
relief but thousands of miners cling
firmly to the belief that A. F. of L.
leaders, confronted with labor-smash-
ing injunctions which threaten the
life of the whole labor movement, will
call for militant action from all sec
lions of organized labor.
1t is probable that among the min
ers there is confusion between what
the A. Fc of L. conference ought to do
and what it will do.
Big Responsibility.
Nevertheless, it can be said with
certainty that unless the conference
outlines and adopts program that
will give the miners new hope and
concrete support, the effect on the
struggle here will be bad.
In the opinion of all familiar with
the terrible conditions here among
the miners and their families, heavy
responsibility rests upon the union
leaders who will take part in the
Monday meeting. "a
