has an actress scored a similar success
until Rose Stahl appeared on Captember
1. 1906. at the Savoy Theater In James
Forbes' comedy, "The Chorus Lady."
Like Miss Crosman, she was practically
unknown to Broadway. Today she is rec
ognized as a comedienne of unique ca
pacity for. In the words of an eminent
critic, she possesses "a gift not often
found In present-day actresses; the gift
that makes her akin to Joseph Jefferson.
Sol Smith Russell and Nat Goodwin, that
felicitous ability to alternate, to almost
merge comedy and pathos 'the tear be
hind the laugh.' "
Immediately previous to her present
appearance at the head of her own com

Henry B. Harris, Miss Stahl had won at
the Palace Theater, in London, a repu
tation of the success she had enjoyed In
America's vaudeville theaters, where she
had been presenting for three years Mr.
Forbes' one-act comedy of stage life

Miss Stahl's beginnings were compara

convent and a conspicuous participant In
the miracle plays given there under the
direction of the sisters. It was small
wonder that on her graduation she found
her way to the stage. A novitiate In
road productions was followed by a three
years' engagement as leading woman at
the Girard-Avenue Theater, in Philadel
