‘ ‘ A Harke ? ha BG SUOLESS Robert Marshall’s Comedy,“The Duke of Killicrankie,” Keeps an Audience in Laughter by Its Sparkling Wit. JOHN DREW PLEASING IN UNINVITING PART, Mr. Ferdinand Gottschalk and Miss Fanny Brough Score Im- tmense Hits and Fairly Kidnap Most of the Honors, Mr. Ferdinand Gottschalk and Miss Fanny Brough walked off with “The Duke of Killi- @renkio" at the Empire Theatre last Right. And. It Is to be aaded, in per forming this feat these clever come- Gians walked off with a prise of « comedy, for “The Duke of Killicrankte” te Robert Marshall at his best when it @omes to clever dialogue, The play Is wonderfully witty, especially in its re- lation to the characters assumed by Mr Gottschalk and Miss Brough, one a facile fop of a fellow, Mr. Pitt-Welby, who is the object of all the sarcasm and the butt of all the ridicule, besides being the centre of near! eo “sit. wations;" the other a dry Vermouth of & widow, who Is chiefly concerned in .

Mr. Drew was strenuous wher wasn't stiff, and stiff when he wasn't strenu- us—neither of which conditions Is oon- duoive to the pecullar Drew charm, But withal Mr, Drew manages to be inter- sting and tolerably ingratiating, not- withstanding he le cast as a cad who decoys an unappreciative lady from London to @ castle on @ cliff in Scot- land, where he keeps her immured for &@ week in order that she may learn 10 love him, Not only that, but he subjects her in the end to the humiliation of having the affalr “get Into the papers,” an in- cldeat which brings on the scene a stupid correspondent who is wholly superfiusus and painfully out of the picture, Nateral Talent. To be eure, Mr. Drew can't help being the cad, and one ts quite willing to for- give Mr, Marshall making him one in view of the deliclous comedy which | Th rows out of the arrangement.
