SPRINGFIELD, Mass,, Oot, Charles Richman began his starring tour at the Court Square Theatre last night under the management of Weber & Fields, in a new romantic drama called ‘Capt. Barrington," by Victor Mapes, and won a decided success, The audience was one of the largest ever gathered in this city. Mr. Richman plays the dual role of George Fielding, Neutenant in the Continental Army, and of Harry Bar- rington, a captain in tho British Army. It Is a trying part for any actor, re- qairing many quick changes, but Mr. Hichiman scored. heavily. ‘One of the central figures in the drama is that. of Gen, Washington, whom Teut.

Mrs, Fiske's Hedda is hardly the cre: tion of Ibsen's philosophical brain. The Hedda seen at the Manhattan {s simply @ woman with a soul too emall for a big, honest sin, coldly cruel and oynical- ly eelfish. Selfishness, in fact, is the keynote of Mrs, Fiske's characteriza- tion. The Hedda she p: wom- an with a gangrened ego. There nothing pleasing about it, except the personal magnetism of the actress, There \4s no lesson to be learned, Hedda ts | simply bad without exouse. It 1s hardly probable that Ibsen would be pleased with Mrs. Piske's presenta- tion of his creation, He might be pleased here and there with the art of the a tress, but he would have to use a micro- scope to find any trace of his Hedda. ‘Dwo or three members of the support- ling company were good, Miss Carlotta ellson being especially so as Mrs. Ely- ed. Willlam B, Mack, as Tesman, Hedda’s husband, presented a very con- vincing character. His realization of the simple, fooligh, trusting bookworm was all that could be desired. Beyond these two exceptions the mem- bers of the company played their parts in a woodeny manner and there was Uttle in the production either from the viewpoint of atmosphere or novelty that would mdicate for i any great amount of popularity.

All the apartments of a big, five-story flat house at No. 553 Grand street, were flooded by the bursting of a large water tank on the roof. Twenty-four families were driven from their flate and the wildest excitement prevailed in the | bullding and neighborhood. ‘The water caine down with a roar that awoke most of those in the big building and those not aroused by the noise were soon routed out by the water, which dripped through the cellings and ran under doors. Not a room in the house escaped and a two-inch pipe that fed the tank added more water every moment, Scores of men, women and children rushed from their apartments into the halls to be met by a torrent of water. ‘The screams of the frightened women and children could be heard for several LUCILLA FLAVEN AS AVIER MILBREY.
