"Gloriunu' wiih given its third preson
tntion in this city Tucsilay evening, be
ing preceded by a one-act curtain raiser
entitled "Sweet Will," which like nearly
all curtain raisers was notable chief
iy for its dreariness.
Thoro is something the matter with
tho people who write one-act plays. The
humor in these plays in quite apt to be
sickly, and tho pathos is generally
bathos. Stupidity is almost invariably
ono of thodistinguishing characteristics.
Miss Emily Hancker, who has a par
ticulurly charming stage presence, was
a very pretty Glarutna, with not quite
as much vivacity asMissCroBBinan, who
is bo delightfully remembered in con
nection with this part.
Mr. Pursons as Fitz Jiwelyn did noth
ing" that entitles him to any considera
tion. Sj)inkn and Count Kvititff were
cleverly done, and other minor parts
were well taken.
"Gloriana" is a very clover farco, and
it was thoroughly enjoyed Tuesday
even.
Coining Attriictloint.
Milton NobloB in"ThoPhojnix"willbo
seen at tho LaiiBing Tuesday, January
1(1. "Tho PhcL'nix" was produced in
1875, and in it Milton Nobles was first
scon us a star. Yet thoro are people
ready to swear they saw it thirty years
ago, and that Nobles is at least seventy
live years old. In ono of tho o.xchangcs
last weok, Mr. Murray, Mr. Nobles'
manager, was conversing with an elderly
gentleman who has recently built an
opera house in u western town and who
was in tho city filling timo.
"So Nobles is going to revive tho old
'Phienix,' eh?" said tho manager. "Well,
I am glud of it. It will carry me bauk
to my boyhood again. 'The Pluenix'
was the first play I ever saw. I waB a
kid in my shirt sleeves und I nearly fell
out of the gallery when tho first scene
cume on."
NoblcB was Heated in an inner ofllce
and heard tho remark. lie sauntered
out, shed up tho speakor,who looked old
enough to bo the actor's father.
' Introduce me," said Nobles to his
manager.
"So you saw me play 'Tho Pluenix'
whon you wore a kid in the gallery, ehY
Let mo see, where was that?"
"Old Arch Btreet theatre, Philadel
phia."
"Yes. I nlayed there in 18(8 for the
first time."
"Oh, it was long before that. It must
huvo been in tho '(X)s."
"Hold on," suid Nobles, "tho play was

written in 1875.''
"What! 1875? Well, I thought you
looked mighty young. It must have
been your father I saw. What did he
used to play?"
"Rip Van Winkle and Davy Crockett."
"Oh, yes, sure enoHgh! Davy Croc
kett! That is the pieeo where tho
Indians set tire to the cabin and tho
soldiers arrive on a freight train just in
time to rescue the girl."
Morrison's "Faust" will be presented
at the Lansing theatre, Wednesday,
January 17. The version of Gnotho's
work which iB presented was made by
Mr. liuylo Bernard, of London. Tho
general arrangoment of tho scenes fol
lows very closely that made familiar by
Mr. Irving, but it should be said that
there is no evidence of any attempt to
copy the production of the English
manager. Miii'diicrile is imprisoned,
charged with the murder of her mother,
and not with the killing of her child and
indeed tho fact that shoever had a child
is ignored. The piece is staged well and
tho pictures are ellective. Electricity is
used with good efTect in several scenes,
tho duel with its flashes of electric light
is a startling incident. The apotheosis
Is iiIbo interesting, making a fitting close
to the weird and singular performance.
The scene on tho summit of the Jirockou
is thrilling and impressive, 'is was the
casein the Irving production. It holds
tho attention of the audience and its
close made brilliant by a dazzling dis
play of fireworks is iiuite a novelty. A
great many supernumeraries are used,
and tiiey aro handled so skillfully that
they add to tho naturalness and elTec
tlvoness of tho picturss. The culcium
lights aro also cleverly placed and
utilized to good udvantngo. (J rent caro

"A Trip to Chinatown" will be pre

pany, and adequate accessories. This
farco of all that lloyt has produced in
recent years, has been the most success

New York of over four years. This
play abounds in striking songs and
catchy novelties, and having on its form

most enthusiastically, it is sure to repeat
its former success next Friday. "A Trip
