The sorrowful story conceived by the clever author, made so difficult to un- fold by its swiftly anging lin. nd intricate dialogue, was admirably handled by Mr. Cross, Miss Herne and their capable supporter nd as the company get: more familiar with the lengthy speeches the piece should Jrove as jnteresting and impressive as of the plays they have essayed to ent during their stay here. The Tron Maste portunity for Mr. Cross and Miss Herne.

In their many scenes together the couple show consummate skill in emotional acting, Mr. Cross rising to heights of c power as the talented voung actress, co-star with him, depicts the agonizing suffetings of the proud and unhappy victim of a chain of circum- | stances which burdens her with a load | of sorrow and wretchedness. These scenes are touching and tear dimmed ‘ cyes could be noticed as the audience travelled with them over the dismal ‘rnad which eventually led to their | haven of happiness. | " Both Mr. Cross and Miss Herne | were letter perfect in their exceeding- | | i i i dramat! | 1y difficult lines and spurred on by their splendid acting, their supporters worked faithfully and well to give the piece a suitable presentation. J. Trving White began his farewell week by again displaying his remark- able versatility, assuming the role of the lowly born and uneducated mil- lionaire, who successfully buys en- trance into society for his daughter and by the same methods secures a title for her. He gave his usually careful interpretation of the part and made the character impress the audi- ¢nce throughout the entire play. Philip Sheflield won the sympathy of the audience for Octave De Beau- lien and with Miss Winifred Welling- ton, cast as Suzanne Derblay, his <weetheart, brought out the tender ! centiment woven around the charac- ters by the author with pronounced cuccess. They acted their parts feel- ingly and showed a nice conception of {he roles assigned to them. Miss Dorothy Moniglen, one of the newcomers in the company, has a more important part than usual this week. She has a most pleasing stage presence. her enunciation is excel- lent and her mannerisms well suited to the part she is playing. Her work dur- ing the week should attract consider- able attention. Showing a thorough understanding of the many finely shaded lines given | to her, Miss Dora Booth acts the diffi- cult role of Athanais Moulinet in @ I skillful manner and shares the honors with Mr, Cross and Miss Herne. Kugene Weber, William Ennis, Thomas Sena and Mrs. Hibbard also contribute their mite toward the suc- s of the piece. They gave an sn- | telligent reading of their lines la= night and life little to be desired. Th beautiful nes in the second and third acts testified to the skill of Maurice Tuttle while the manner in which the play was produced showed the hand of Kendal Weston, the direc- tor. The play is of the “bookish” type. It recalls the drama of a by-gone day and it impresses one by its natural- ness and logical progress. “The Iron Master” is worthy of a revival and last night's performance indicates that it | will fare well at the hands of the Ly- ceum Players. ‘ Fads and Fashions | color.

BAKER AND LA TOUR FEATURE AT GRAND The “last word to have made it's appearance at | Grang theater, Hartford this week. and goes without hesitancy in saying that Bert Baker and hi Bon-Ton troupe is far in advance of ilar attraction that has pl popular theater this or any other son, since the opening of the North Main street playhouse. Mr. Baker who is well known to lovers of burlesque for many years, has not lost any of his ahility to entertain his audience, and in the role of Be min Buttercup, his lutest character, he fills the bill to perfection. The burletta, “Copper at 647, furnishes many opportunities for this “fat and good natured” comedi to put into play his many capabilities ind when it comes to extricating him- elf from the many difficulties which the “plot” lands him, ways found on top by his clever man- ner in juggling the truth. As a prince of liars Benny Buttercup outdistances the entire field, winning in a canter. While Mr. Baker is what | termed the “star”, therc are other mmbers of the company, which the calcium may be set on during the pro- duction particularly Babe La Tour, that bunch of live wires, whose work in many respects resembles Eva Tan- guay Almo Gluck or Louis Homer may be the proud possessors of bet- ter voices for singing, but when comes to acting her songs there is only one Babe La Tour. The part allot- ed to Miss La Tour is one that is fit- tingly adapted for her many clever roints, and in the closing scenes of the burletta when she renders, “Close to My Heart,” she departs from the mel- oday part for a time to osculate with the musicians. Every member supplied with one (that's all), and everyone appeared happy except a fellow in the B. H. row who met with isappointment for his efforts. Miss our has appeared at a local play- house and her work has lost none of the “pep” that featured her work at that time. Other members supplying parts that make the “Copper at 647 a success e Leo Hoyt, Sam Hyams, pretty Lu- and dainty Rose IFord. The troupe departs from the custom of having a number of worn out songs on the program, some new fea- tures being contributed during the course. Particularly good are, “The Yankee Doodle Rag,” by Sam Hyams; “I Love You Because You're Irish’ by Lucille Manion, “Highland Mary,” by " by Mr. Baker, “On ssippi,” by Miss McCloud It has been said that the work of Mike celey and Mabel McCloud, the Barba Coast dancers, was superior to any similar team in burlesque, and if the manner in which they did their work last evening is to be accepted as a criterion, there is no doubt of the truth of the atements., Forced to repeat several times, the dancers were finally compelled to quit on account of the length of the show, but this did not he is al- of the “band” cille Manion efforts for several minutes after Sam Hyams and Irene Nolan in ‘Apache dance displayed clever skill.
