Web- d'Artagnan of the time of Louls, was the pessessor of a heart of oak, an arm of steel and an ever ready sword. Stuart is decldedly clever as De Bazan, giving to ilhe part of the devil-may-care Spaniard just enough vim and spirit to raise the character above the level of the ordinary hero of melodrama, and at the same time so portraying De Bazan that the au- }dience thought him worthy of a recall and applauded until the curtain was | | ralsed to give a chance to see De Bazan | in the attitude of a conqueror. There are | four acts to the piece and at the end of | each a curtain call was given. In each | instance the recall was deserved. not only by Stuart, but by Joseph Eggenton, who | took the part of Don Salluste de Bazan, |the hero’s cousin, whose villainous | schemes kept Don Caesar's sword arm | busy. Frank E. Camp was the idiotic | monarch to the life, and Charles Inslee, | who played the part of Dun Pedro, the | King's faverite, did splendidly. Mary Horne, as Maritana, a handsome peasant girl who attracted the amorous glances | of Charles, and won and returned the love of Don Caesar, is a very clever ac- tress. She is an Eastern production, as is also Eleanor La Salle, Who took the | part of Inez, Maritana's sister, and did so fn a manner that she won the applause of not only the gallery, but of the occu- pants of the chairs on the lower floor.
