Such elemental manifesta tion of the baulo passlon-love-as b ve for one'e self, or for another; together with the clash that comes when two of these loves fall counter to one another, as they are continually doing In storybooks, must al ways furnish forth the material for any popular play.

Omaha haa had two slight opportunities to Judge of her as a comedienne. As Iouise In "The Two Orphans" he was to a great xtent overshadowed by tha more experi enced members of the cast, and did uot Show tha native fore needed to rulse the role to prominence. The work of Sarah Truax us Henrietta, of Mr. LeMoyne, f Clara Morris and Mrs. Otis left little lustra for Misa Ueorge ln the all-star east, and yet as she Is remembered her work waa that of a painstaking and care ful actress, each detail being given Us correct valu ln the perspective and th hol being very well don without Mtually reaching a climax. In "Th Mar riage of William Ashe'' she was seen to much better advantage. In this she was compelled to exert herself to overcome th disadvantages of a rola that a an tagonistic to th audience. At no point Aid It carry with It tho sympathy of tho listeners, and even In th UluglcuJ ending of the piece, where an emotional seen afforded her a chano for some excreta of her ability, ahe was in a false position s to tha audience. Since Miss Ueorge Was seen her she has produced another play. "Clothes," ln which she made some thing more of a success than was hen In "The Marriage of William Aahe."

Rest doe, ?t nothing. It means change scene and Interests. No one can plod l" same oiu mt year after year without becoming gray and uninspired. Recreation and rest do not necessarily lie In Europe, either. They may lie In a back yard garden, or the following out of a long- deferred course of vocal exercises; the further study of French.

Breunan of "Tha Clansman" company said: The action of the Southern Traffic as sociation rings the deathknell of the moneyless manager. Never again will It be possible to travel the southern circuit on a shoestring. Take, for example, nn opera company of flft people traveling an average of l.rinn miles a week. Before starting out their manager numt buv them fifty l.ncvmllo books that la, he must ad vance H.ssrt. to the railroad company beTore he can give his first performance.' More over, he la paying a cent a mile morn than he used to, the, old rate for firty or more persons having been onlv V, cents per mile.
