the clever utah ulan tragedian she has taken various roles during her career and her success Is most pleasing to her many friends I 1 A alan 1 an dale dramatic critic of the N new ew york world has th follo following iving caustic comments in a late paper chos been telling they are telling a very tunny funny and attractive segry about pauline hall and her ter company and I 1 think it Is worth repeating miss hall placed in salt lake C city y recently and was very well received to her horror howe however ver on the morning following her initial performance she discovered that she had been stated slated lit in one newspaper and that miss jeanette Jeanc tte F henry had walked away with all the praise miss liless hall half pained at the insult so did MISS halls husband mr fr mcclellan admit that the was ot nt rosy evert even for the least exacting 9 en ilar actress 1 duncan B harilson was accused cuse d of having been instrumental in securing the good notice for miss henry and tile the bad notice lor for miss hall actresses vou void know always imagine that dramatic critics critic are more mere looking glasses lit in which the sentiments of 0 every tom dick and harry can be reflected with the utmost facility critics tire are never supposed to have any opinions lo 10 of their own even dav favorable arable no tic are written because some friendship Is presumed to exist between bet ireen the and the duncan 13 harrison Har Is a very clever energetic and plausible gentleman find and he feels fee Is very indignant at the accusations lons hurled burled at his head by miss lillas halt hall and her husband ile he also felt that he was completely innocent and that some indication was wals necessary mc essary so he wrote to the dramatic editor of the salt lake pit paper in question mr glen miller I 1 believe by name and flaked him to convince the irate star that she wits was quite in the wrong mr air glen idiller acquiesced very amusingly and as I 1 suggested before instructively for once he remarked 1 I would like to say gay that I 1 recently wrote a dramatic criticism just this time I 1 want it understood der stood that no press agent dictated my utterances I 1 and I 1 alone was waa responsible for the statement that ha has q antlered red miss hall so thoroughly this thin kind of thing Is not peculiar to salt lake city it la Is jut just as aa rampant in new york tork one would think that in the metropolis the theatrical people would at any rate expect to find dignity and impartiality among th the critics but they dont the dramatic e critic in their estimation criticizes criticises to t 0 please lease p them only all his alms in life Is to write puffs tor for a crowd of u ungrateful sycophants who accept a all 1 praise as aa a matter of course ive no patience with these theatrical dolts bolts and ive come to the conclusion thit that th it the lest less you see of em cm the he more pea peaceful e ful will your tire lire be they cannot
