Leslie and in the Record. Herald ' by james o uonneil Bennett. . -Says" Miss Leslie: .; ""Olga NethersoJe has been cloying the restless, ears hungry for extravagant emotion and rather rousing her least en thusiastic admirers to considerable sur prise by a certain subdued and more en . durable suppression of her hitherto most violent extravagances. Miss Nethersole comes back to us at the Majestic, look ing, exactly the same with a - slightly heavier Jaw and eyelid and a much bet ter Issue of contralto moans and wails. Iier tawny hair swep the air or floor er furniture with Its 'old magnificence and Olga Is still handsome and noisy, but not so amazingly so as she was ten years ago. , f "She does the separation scene from ,- tier tabooed and ardent "Sapho" and she . friops the stage as of yore, but does it .valiantly and with much stanch force and emotional abandon. The majestic Kenny is attractive and appealing and. If she Is gymnastic at times and grovel ing, it mufet be confessed she is much less so than she was when Miss Nether vole bore down upon us with the police jon her trail." Says Mr. Bennett: I Half an hour's exhibition of Miss Nethersole's acting provides sufficient v, opportunity to estimate the present state of her powers, and those powers reinad.-known in sH -therr abundance nd all their error In the third act the tone she presents in vaudeville of "Sa ho." Fanny, long apprehensive lest her mature fascinations shall pall upon her young lover, learns at last that such :1s the case, and she is torn between fury and abject woe. ; "In illustrating this conflict Miss Nethersole pulls the throttle wide. She Churls herself upon Jean, she grovels, she paws and she mauls, releasing simul taneously a copious stream of the vitu peration of a strumpet and the shrill heroics of a playactress. The tragic .conflict is reduced to the level of a . tussle, but power of a kind, undeniably Is brought to bear. There is. indeed, jenormous power, but no leash. Conse quently the effect is murky, excessive nd horribly gross, for that effect is created not by emotional depiction but y emotional riot. The pathos and the .gTlmness of Fanny's plight are lost in fanny's gyrations and. Fanny's vocal splurge. The physical abandon of the .actress becomes almost maniacal, but no note of spiritual anguish reaches the in uis uenoiaer or so much stress and so much struggle. It is not acting mo much as It is an emotional bout and .there Is no poignancy in in only the wrath and balked desire of a wild ani mal. Miss Nethersole does not in this scene mirror the emotions; she pumps them up. The arm that moves the han dle is strong and the gush from the ;spout deluges the place." ;. Miss Nethersole has returned to America after an absence of three sea sons.
