The players in this merry scene are so thoroughly in sympathy with it, their pranks and laugnter are spontaneous, the little details supplieu in the stage settings are so perfect, that as the scene advances the audience gradually enter into the spirit of the situation and forget theatre. The heated spirit of the atmos phere of the playhouse is dissipated and from the natural simplicity and life-like cha-m of the merriment there sweep over the spectator that perfect illusion which comes but seldom from stage art. Thafootlights dissappear and the actors on one side and the lookers-on upon the other seem to minai In rhclcso.T.i enjoyment. At Steward's opera House on Friday Nov. 30, there will be few in the audience who will not find the husking bee scene a perfect realization of the geniuine article A PLEASING PLAY A small house last evening witnessed the presentation of "The Sign of the Cross," by . a well balanced company. From the opening lines to the wonderful climax in the last act. the play was in tensely interesting. The leading roles wsre especially well played and the minor parts too, were well taken. Little criticism could be made of any actor in the caste. The story of how the the christians, during Nero's reign, suffer ed frightful bodily inflictions, was ably portrayed. Then too, there was an in spiring love story interwoven thru the play, which emphasized the devoutness of the christians. When the crucial test came for Mercia, the' leading christian lady in the play, her devoutness for Christianity overcame her love for man. The curtain falls on the last act U the psychological moment and makes the spectator more vividly imagine the fright ful end of two strong personalities, that of the christion and the converted subject of Nero, Marcus. MAUD FEALY Miss Fealy ought to be all that her crier of praises claims. Regarding her cleverness: She was one entire season with the late Sir Henry Irving, the great est actor of his time, in the enviable posi tion of leading lady, one might almost say, "his co-star." Then again, she held the same position with E. S. Willard. William Gillette and William Collier. And regarding her beantv. it is a matter of 1 history that her unotoRrapn was awa-ded i thi grand priz at the Par' Exposition 1 durinpf the International contest of the 1 world s most bev.ituul women. And 1 speaking of magnetism: Would it not j seem that she was bubbling over with I that indispensable adjunct to an actress, success, since she has attained an inter national reputation as a representative actress? Indeed we will not question MissFeaiy's claims but rather await the descending of this brilliant little twinkler into the loca theatrical firmament. Tuesday. Dec. 1 1 .
