Show I j 'Return, of Clara Morris. The revival in New York last Mon-5 Mon-5 day night of "The Two Orphans" with V an all star cast seems to have caught the public fancy, and the reviewers of the production have only words of com-j com-j mendatlon for the' performance and all concerned therein. It was a time of "big" receptions for every one of the players, for the ca&t Included Grace George and Margaret Ulington as LouIho and Hcnrlette, Annie Irish as tho Countess, Ellta Broclor Otis as Froihard, Clara Morris as Sister , Genevieve, Kyrle Bellow as Maurice, 3D. X M. Holland as Plcard, Charles Warner as Jacques, James O'Neill as Pierre, 5 and Jameson Lee Finney us De Presles. tj Especially hearty was the welcome ac-3 ac-3 corded Clara Morris. One of the New ij York reviewers writes: "The appcar-a appcar-a ance of Clara Morris was the signal for n n renewal of the enthusiasm. Then oo-t oo-t curred a scene such as Is seldom q witnessed in any theater. In vain the l actress raised her hand to still the tumult; tu-mult; In vain she clasped both her q hands together as an indication of re-f re-f tiprocal feeling. It was only when her H lips quivered, her eyes filled with tears, and her body trembled, that tho people In front seemed Instinctively to rea-t) rea-t) Uzc that even enthusiasm may be enr-Q enr-Q rkd too far. After last night let no j man say that New Yorkers are lacking H in loyalty, are Incapable of sentiment, jt Why, even sentimentality can run riot s" on occasion. When the cripple, Pierre, s! covered the shoulders of the shivering Louise with his tattered Jacket, even B the boxes responded to the pathos let a no man say bathos of the situation. tj Chicago Tribune. ri |
