four acts, from the novel of the same
name by Minna ret Dels ml; adapted by
Charlotte Thompson. The cast:

When Margaret Anglin broke away from
a long association with Henry Miller; gave
over "The Great Divide," and the promise
of other and easier roles In support of th
star, and announced her determination to
produce "The Awakening of Helena
Richie," and to do other things on her own
hook, much wagging of heads waa engen
dered, and a great deal ot Ink wa spread
on paper to tell how well she might do a
a light comedy actor, hut how far away
ho waa in tempernicnt and Inclination
from the more serious drama. When new
came back from Australia that she had
scored in her new play, mor wagging of
heads and spreading of ink was indulged
by the quid mines. And finally she came
home to our shores, and for several months
she haa been proving to Americana that
she haa the capacity for earnest, sincere,
purposeful dramatic work. It may be that
her forte Is for light comedy; Omaha has
not seen her often enough to Judge of her
qualities in this regard. She surely po
sesses tho power for serious and authorita
tive expression of the deeper and stronger
passion that stir human life.
As Helena Richie she Is offering a type
of woman far to be preferred to those usu
ally presented under similar circumstances.
We have had a long procession of those
fair one who went "a-kennlng wrang,"
and who were too weak to win back their
road to happiness by the only means
humanly possible.
Helena Richie found the way, and sh
was given strength to follow It Mrs.
Deland foresaw for her the calamity that
overtook Paula Tanqueray, and saved her
from It, not by any tour of force, but
by the expedient open to Plnero or any
other creator of these puppet who are
moved about in the game ot aex upon the
stage. But Pluero and his kind had not
the courage to adopt the one chance open.
Maybe the atmosphere ot Old Chester is
clearer than that of London, and for thl
reason the ability to discern the choice be
tween right and wrong Is more readily ex
ercised. At any rate Helena Is left at
last redeemed because she had the strength
to turn her back on "the easiest way,"
and set her feet on the stony path of right.
Miss Anglin gives a fine idea ot the
"awakening" of the woman, showing how
her own sense of right and wrong was
finally adjusted till It met with the rather
narrow but eminently correct standard of
Old Chester and it mentor, the good Dr.
Lavendar. She haa some very strong
scenes. In fact, the third act Is fairly
tempestuous; Helena Is called upon first
to renounce her lover and her chance for
marriage; then to make confession to the
old preacher, whose conviction would
admit ot no compromise between self and
truth, to give up the boy she longed to
adopt and for whom ahe had sent away
her lover; and finally to stand convicted
before her own conscience. It Is a whirl
wind of passion and emotion, and In it Mis
Anglin ihows how much strength she really
commands. Not a passion Is torn to tat
ters, not an emotion la shrieked out In
gasping hysteria; no sofa pillow are tossed
about, nor does the tide of sobbing disturb
the scenery. Here I an act that nine out
ot ten of our "emotional" actresses might
study with profit. Mis Anglin leaves not
a point untouched, not a chord unsounded,
but all 1 done so reasonably that It seems
real beyond Imagination. Nor is it in this
alona she shows her art. In the lighter
passage she is equally good. Her Joy at
the coming of her lover; her feverish eager
ness for his reply to her telegram; her bit
ter disappointment when she fluids h Is
not aa ready for the marriage as she, all
are parts of a well conceived and wrought
out character. Miss Anglin has Justified
her own Judgment when she deliberately
undertook to "star" under her own man
agement. The suporttng company ia good. Mr.
Crouford is impressive at Dr. Lavendar,
and Mr. Howe fully realizes the part of
Dr. King. Mr. Ormonde might leave a tittle
less of Pryor'a Intent apparent and not
spoil th role. Mr. Shakespeare acts Sam
Wright with commendable enthusiasm and
taste, and Mr. Brown 1 strong as old
Benjamin Wright. Miss Swiggett's Sarah
