THE THEATRE
Clay Clement played at the Funke on
Saturdar afternoon and evening to
packed bouses, In the evening es
pecially, every seat in the bouse was
old. Everybody who had eeen him as v
Baron Hohenstauffen in -'The New Do
minion," was curious to see bim in bis
new play, "A Southern Gentleman." In
"The New Dominion," Mr. Clement
created a dew character. Baron Ho
henstauffen was unique and Mr. Clement
made the play a delicate romance free
from the usual stage clap' trap and hero
ic. But, though it is with much regret
that I say it, it is obvious that Mr.
Clement played Hohenetauffen too long.
A southern gentlemen with a German
brogue is impossible though not more
fantastic than the reproductions of the
southern accent frequently heard on tbe
stage. Gen. Joseph Carroll of Carolina
is the Baron Hohenstauffen in the uni
form of a confederate general. His ges
tares, bis gutturals, bis accent are Teu
tonic lie is graceful, dignified, of a
noble character, but he is Dutch, though
be struggles against it. Mr. Clement is
an earnest scholar and a very intelligent
gentleman with ambition enough to pull
hiin out of any rut when once he knows
be is in it. He nedds something which
be is not getting on the road. If he
were to become a meeabe; of a stock
company and-play all sot ts of characters
bis Baron Hohenstauffen might lose the
peculiar flavor be now has, but tbe ac
tor would gain in versatility. The eii
tauMasm'ot tbe hownWM a personal
tad f rieadly express eC-tbe charm of
MrClement's character. The Phi Kappa
Psi fraternity, of which he is a mem
ber, received him with bravos innumer
able, and he was called before the cur
tain too many times to count. About
the play there is nothing especially
new the theme is a threadbare
one from a dramatic standpoint.
In the last two or three years ''Ala
bama," and the many war plays which
followed it, have familiarized the public
with all tbe favorite situations. The
success in "A Southern Gentleman" is
Mrs. Chas. G. Craig, who played
"Mammy Lind,"a little round mammy.
Her acting was carried to the point of
complete illusion, and as a piece of ar
tistic work deserves strong commenda
tion. From the strength and number of
the biases which Mr. Carleton Macey,
the villain, received before the curtain,
it was plain to fo seen that the
audience considered bim a real villain.
Therefore his work deserves the praite
of those who present verisimilar roles.
The rest of the company were excellent.
Miss Kara Kenwyn in a purely ro
mantic role has no chance to display her
gifts of comedy, but she was girlish, un
sophisticated and hero worshipping,
though one missed the incisive speeches
of 'the widow."
Primrose and West-
Andrew Mack in "An Irish Gentle
man' drew rather a slender audience to
the Lansing on Wednesday night, though
he has been playing to standing room
only in Kansas City. Mr. Mack has a
tenor so high that it is just on the bor
der line between a tenor and a soprano.
It has the flexibility of a Boprano and at
times a soprano's unsatisfying quality,
