JOHN- SON,” adapted from _the French of Gavault and Ber by Clyde Fitch, was present. ed at the Columbia Theater last night for the first time locally by Miss Amelia Bingham and her company. As Mr. Lackaye suggested in his unc- tuous impromptu, we may “‘write to our friends who are out of town—getting their noses burnt—to come and see the piay,” or, as Mr. Lackaye did not say, to come and see the pecple in it. For, dis- tinctly, “The Frisky Mrs. Johnson™ | pleased last night, pleased largely in spite | of itself, but emphatically pieased. And those of us who were not out of town “getting our noses burnt” signaled sat- isfaction in unmistakable fashion. I left off at ten in counting the curtain calls at the end of the second adt. The “new and partly original play from the French” of the programme defines Mr. Fitch’s relation to the comedy. In just what the play is original with Mr. | Fitch is left undetermined, but open to suspicion. As in the original the scene is laid in Paris, but with dramatis per- sonae of English, French and American nationalities. Chiefly American. In fact, the whole atmosphere is tremendously but un- persuasively American. Englishing the French play is ever an ungtateful task. The average result suggests the translat- ing Of a butterfly into a goose, and the | suggestion is not wholly absent here. Au- thor Fitch would, however, seem to be peculiarly well suited to the Gallic trans- lation, but he has not so shown himself here. In omitting—and what so difficult as the delicate art of omission?—some of the inevitable Gallic suggestiveness, Mr. Fitch becomes most un-Fitchly heav: | footed, his people bourgeois instead of gay, his situations consequently implausi- ble instead of inevitable, The central episode is happy, and in Mr. Lackaye's, Miss Bingham's and Mr. Ab- ;inxn]on's hands becomes human and touch. ing. But these chiracters, the oniy pos- | sible ones in the play, are surrounded by 2 very grab-bag of others. Yet there are those characteristic touches—confetti of the drama—that Mr. Fitch throws with such practiced hand, to be found in ad- mirable abundance. The scenes are grace- | ful and gay—carnival time in Paris—and | the setting elegance itself. The story concerns itself with the sac- rifice of a supposedly “frisky” sister— the frisky Mrs. Johnson—for a reputedly virtuous one, Mrs. Frank Morely. Mrs. Morely has compromised herself with one | Lord Heathcote, and the widowed Mrs. Johnson takes upon herself the onus of the affair. But it becomes more serious | than she had antigipated. The brother of her sister's husband, with whom she her- self is in love, has fallen in love with her, but learns from his brother of Mrs. John- son’s supposed sin. And here begins the improbable. \ The person Mrs. Johnson is supposed to have found the world well lost for is an intolerable cad, that is, when he is at all believable. He mostly isnit. It was pat- ently manifest that she could not have loved him. Nor even her weaker sister Grace. But granted the possibility, and the rest becomes thoroughly interesting, and as it was aeted last night even con vincing. Mr. Lackaye as Jim Morely, in love with “Mrs. Frisky,” quietly walked with most of the honors of the perform- ance. He has, it is true, much the best opportunity. A large share of what good lines there are fall to him and his part has been painted at least plausibly by the author. But he won again by his natural, human methods, his quiet drollery, by the balance, finish and poise of his work. His scene with Mr. Abingdon, where he learns of Mrs. Johnson's supposed perfidy, was a little masterplece of acting. They called for him after the second curtain until Miss Bingham forced him to the front and he unwillingly began, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, after Miss Bingham's very beautiful but obviously prepared speech, ago and I have never any Jv’fible since. twin terrors of skin diseases — Nettle-rash, MISS GENEVA BRIGGS.

In a gale of laughter each man promised Mr. Lackaye and himself that he would. Miss Bingham was comfortable, gay and buoyant Mrs. Frisky. She brought humor, sincerity, and sympathy to the part and a dream-like repertoire of gowns. The audience compelled a neat speech from the accomplished man- ager—before Mr. Lackaye's famous effort, but Miss Bingham made the hit of her performance by the sweet courtesy with which she brought Mr. Lackaye to the front of the stage.

Ernest Lawford did - Lord Heathcote as well as could be expected and the rest helped Mr. Fitch throughout. o California. “In the Palace of the King,” which was presented most successfully at the Call- | fornia Theater last night, is a wonderful pleture of the strange life of the Spanish court four centuries ago. The elegance and frailty of royalty, the power and | majesty of the Church of Rome, the en- | thusiasm and fickleness of the hol poliof, the haughtiness and humility of the no- ¢, the hergism and self-sacrifice of stillan grandee and the love and of a beautiful woman constitute charity the basis of a charming story. The play abounds in thrills for.the blase and quickened heart-beats for the har- dened. The manuscript is replete with telling lines. The story Is a succession of sensational incidents. The actors do fine- ly with their mighty task, even if not all of their names are written oy scrolls of higtrionic fame. The costumeS$' and stage settings are both excellent and appro- | priate. The house was crowded last night and the applause was almost continuous. The principals were given hearty curtain calls time and time again. Lillian Kemble gave a remarkable inter- pretation of the character of Dolores. She has great elocutionary abllity, which stands~her well in hand in this play in which she stars. Her fire and spirit are infectious and she had her hearers at her feet last night. George Soule-Spencer as Don John seemed to embody all that the difficult part demands and was recelved quite en- thusiastically. Adora Andrews in the role of Princess of Eboli won success in an ex- tremely unpopular part. Her work was second only to that of Miss Kemble. Thomas Oberle as King and Frank Mac- Vicars as the Cardinal also did splendidly. Joseph Dally and H. 8. Duffield were oth- ers who were frequently applauded and who materially strengthened the plece. The rest of the cast furnished admirable support. Tivoli. epeated curtain calls, bravos and a cartload of flowers came to Camille d’Ar- ville at the Tivoli last evening for her share in the production of “The High- wayman.” As soon as she appeared on the stage and before she had sung one word applause began and there was a steady clapping of hands from ground floor to galleries that was long continued and was full of vigor. The house was filled completely with first-nighters and they were in the mood to give D'Arville a sturdy welcome. In this they succeed- ed. No singer has been better received at the Tivoll in many moons. No one has, throughout an entire evening, better held to herself the favor of the audience ,of the Tivoll than did she. Truth to say, she filled anticipations completely. Her voice was in fine trim, pure, strong and ample. She was cos- —_— | packed and the succession of elaborate <+ of her role Is not especially ambitious in many respects. Much better would not have suffered at her hands. But what she had to do was entirely satisfactory. ‘While it was a.D'Arville night, it was not less unmistakably a triumph for Arthur Gunningham, who fairly disputed the hon- ors with D’Arville. His song of “Kitty O’'Brien’" got two recclls and the audience was not satisfied then. Cunningham gave a star performance. His voice has not been heard to better advantage dur- ing the season. Stevens, Hartman, Annie Myers and ‘Webb, the fun-making quar- | tet of the stock company, had roles that were musically overshadowed by those | of D’Arville and Cunningham. Stevens | caught and held the fancy of his auditors | with the gypsy song, in which he was abetted by a quartet from the chorus.
