the produi'lioii of a long list of pluv
and the revival of many familiar
ones.
Mine. Hernhardt, after four yours'
absence from the New York singe
returns for a three week.-.' engnjii"
ment. On Monday evenim; he ap
peared in "L'Aiglon," a play in m
acts by Kdmond Kostand. Mine.
Hernhardt at the mje of (!7 appeared'
as young as the youth she portrayed
There were no .signs of feebleness in
her acting no indication of age n
her voice. The audience rose to wild
enthusiasm in the scene where the
ambitious youth is made to look at
his own weak form in the glass and
to realize the impossibility of iiU
ambitions, here her voice reached it
greatest pitch and fullest volume
The Wagram scene, too, brought
much apolaiise, and tested the pow
ers of the actress, who seems to be
beyond test. One of the features 01
Mine. IJernhart's engagement will Ik
her appearance for the first lime
here in "Jeanne d'Arc," a play b
Mons. Kmile Moren. It is not to be
confounded with the iilay of the sami
title by Mons. Jules llnrbicr, ii
which she appeared years ago. Slu
will also be seen in "Caiaille," "L.i
Sorciore," by Mons. Victorien Siir
don and Mons. Miguel Jamacois,
"Les Houffons."
"The Aviator" will be reviewed in
next week's letter.
"Macbeth" at Broadway.
K. II. Sotliern and Miss Julia Mar
lowe gave a very notable perform
ance of "Macbeth" at the Bmadwav
theater. Laudatory adjectives have
long been exhausted in describing i $
their art. Mr. Sothern's "Macbeth"
was wcellent and in the scene with; X
Hnnquo's ghost, Sotliern was sn-1

was a delight to the eye and ear. She! Squash
was beautiful to look upon and her1
diction was more charming than herj
face, her art as appealing as either, z
The most impressive moment of thoU
piny is when Macbeth, completely j
broken with the terrors of the ghost's J
visitation, his lady seeks to allay his'j
fears, then succumbs 'herself audi
falls hysterically weeping across his X
knees. This moment is touched with J
tender pity. It would be hard to say
where she was better in infu-ing
into the hesitant Macbeth her own
fire and steely purpose, in merging
her fears and remorses with hei
lord's after the banquet scene or ii
that sleep-walk of a distracted mind
and conscience that shortly pr

applause. How-land Bucii

only a few
mice brought forth a round of an
phiuse. The witches are worthy of
mention if only for the art displayed
in their make-up. They were imper
sonated by Albert S. Ilowson, .Mal
colm Mradley and I.eonore Chippen
dale. "Mary Magdalene" at New Theater.
.Maurice .Maeterlinck's Hiblieal
play, "Mary Magdalene," was pre
sented at the New theater, with Miss
Olga Xethetsole in the title role. It
is full of poetic beauty as a literary
production. "Mary Magdalene" fol
low the Hiblieal story of Mary ol
Magdala, and her reformation
brought about by a spiritual contact
with the Nazarene. As a drama it is
not at all convincing, the weak point
of the piny, technically speaking, is
that the reformation of Mary
through the influence of the Savior
is not strongly enough emphasized.
Miss, Aetliersole acted in the mam
very well indeed. Edward Maekny
gave a good representation of Lu
cius Yenis, and Arthur Forrest as
Annoeu.s Silanus, the philosopher,
was admirable.
"Sherlock Holmes" at Empire.
Sherlock Holmes, in the person of
William Gillette, furnished thrills
galoie at the Kuipiic theater, wheic
Mr. Uillette begun a short engage
ment, reviving his famous detective
play. Never did Ibi- actor's audi
ences of other years show keener de
light, and with good reason, for he
had lost none of his power to por
tray the cool, shrewd detective who
vs was ready for the eineigeney
through his wonderful ability to
reason from the most- trivial things.
Mr. Gillette responded to nine cur
tain calls after the gas chambei
scene, but was deaf to calls for a
speech.
"Daddy Dufard" at the Hackctt.
"Daddv Dufard," a comedy by
Leclnnere Worm II and Albert Chev
alier, in which Albert Chevalier, mu
sic hall artist, delightfully acts an
old French actor. The play is a very
simple one. The first two acts are
rather titesome, but the third act i
mi good that it makes up for all
shortcomings. Chevalier's old
Frenchman is excellent. Daddy Du
fard. the old French actor, bass a
daughter in whose talents he has
much faith. She is to have the prin
cipal role in a sketch at the Cale
donia theater, but after a few re
hearsals the theater manager is per
suaded to give the part to one of his
other actresses because he is afraid
of her. The author of the sketch,
I'nnl Hammond, is in love with Du
fard's daughter, Hose. The old man
finds an opportunity to take up resi
dence as a baron in a gambling house
that is about to be raided on a
charge of cheating, mid as a baron
'ie bring the mumc hall manager to
his terms regarding Hose. The girl
makes her first appearance' uecess
t'ully, pleases the manager and re
ceives the salary that her father
think is due her. liv the third act he
ippears as Chevalier, us Chevalier
is mid U sings two coster songs,
"Mrs. 'Fury 'Awkins" and "Hight as
Niuepence." He also docs his fa
miliar "Workhouse .Man" uvitntion
In these impersonations h.- vns
splendid, and the house applauded
him vociferously. Thi was b far
the best feature of the evening, and
the play seemed merely a iuoiiolo!(U'
for Albert Chevalier. Miss Yiolet
Iteming played the leading rile
charmingly. Leslie Kcnyon was good
as the music hull manager. Artluu
Hrankstou played the French gam- the llackett theater under the
bling house manager realistically am' Hon of Frank Lea Short
K. Murker was very good u-ii
