ITelena Von Rackovitza, the renowned actresa ahout whom Ferdinand LaSalle, the grest Boclalist leader, fought a duel and got killed, was the prineipal attraction at the New Chicago Theatre last evening. She appesred with Mr. Wurster’s company in Sardou's great sensa- tlonal plar, *Die Bpionin® (“The Bpy™). Mr. Emil Von Der Osten, during the last sen- son leading man with Wurster's company, had been eapecially engaged to support her, In spite of thuse attractions, the house was nof full by any mesus. The prestize which Mr. ‘Waurster's theatre once had has cvidently gona from it. The principal cause of this lies proba- bly in the fact that Mr. Wurster made some mistakes in sclecting his company for thls sesson. While it contained brilliant talent, 1t wos wesk In some respeets, and the plays did not go off s evenly s formerly, and gave less satisfaction. Since then Mr. Wurster has made great efforts to® remedy these evils, but, somehow or other, the former patrons of the placo refused to come. Unless Mr. Wurster is better supported for the balance of the scason, he will hardly be able to continue, and the Germaus will be deprived again of the enjoyinent of good and refined per- tormances In o first-class theatre. The efforts which Mr. Wurster has Jately made to regain he prestige which his theatee formerly enjosed would certalnly deserve bettor recognition thau they have been getting, ke Migs Helena Von Rackositza, thestar last even- ng, showed by ber perforiounce of the difficult part of Lora that ghe Is s veey excellentactress, though by no means as great an artist as sho has been heralded to be.
