Mr. .Oland tried out Strlndberg Father."
Forbes-Iioborton, Mr. Faversham and
others were playing in dramas of Shake

Why Miss Anglin
Left Mr. Mansfield
Mii-s Margaret Anglin, who will appear
In Oscar Wilde's satiric dtamu, "Lady
Wlndemere's Fan," at the Broad Street .
Theatre Monday night, made her debut
under Richard Mansfield in Edmond Ros
tand's "Cjrano do Uergerac " Miss Ang
lin was n distinguished success In the
part of Roxane a success all the more
marked b her abrupt and unexplained
disappearance from the cast Miss Ang- I
lln's success was indeed almost as great
ns that of Mr. Mansfield himself When,
therefore, after the company had started
on tour and Miss Anglin vanished, many
and arious were the suppositions as to
why the charming original Roxane had
cone.
Only a short time ago was the mys
terv sohed in the discovery of n letter
written bv Mnnstleld to a Chicago news
lper It is characteristic of the great
actor, and reads thus:
"Virginia Hotel. Chicago, Oct 9. 1902.
"Mv attention has been called to the
continual reference to Miss Anglln and
th ubual innuendot.3 as to why she sev
ered her connection with my company.
MHs Angl'n pl.oed RoMane In 'Crano
do Bergerac' very charmingly, and Im
mediately after her marked success In
the role received an offer of twice the
sum I had contracted to pay for her ser
vices. Miss Anglin accepted the offer.
"I nm jorry that the facts are so sim
ple and uninteresting really almost sor
did, but 'tts true It would have been
more exciting, and no doubt more agree
ible, to hae been able to relate lion
the poor cnature was taken hy the hair
and dragged about the stage, or how
she was, ifter a stonily rehearsal, kid
napped and confined In a dark room,
whero the monster squirted Ink at her
through the kevhole punctually every 15
minutes or how she was sandwiched be
tween two b.iards like the lady In Tol
stoi's rustic tragedi while the beast sat
upon her and read hla prayer book, and i
then how she escaped, nui ever niter
refused to reveal the mystery of her suf
ferings for fear of the vengeance of the
blood-thirsty trant!
Miss Anglln will be supported by
Florence Caipenter, Carolyn Darling.
Patheiine Alnsley, Louise Gtlmore, Helen

A NEW CHARACTER IN DRAMA
In "Nearly Married," Edgar Selwyn's
faice comedy, which comes to tho Garrick
Monday night for n week's run, Cohan
Ai Harris, the producers, assert they In
troduce a character new to fiction and
the drama. It Is the "professional co
respondent." "The character Is taken from life and
is almost, it not quite, confined to New
York," declares Edith Campbell Walker,
who will poitray the part.
"As In Edgar Selwyn's farce, these girls
are secretly engaged by married couples,
seeking an Immediate divorce. They are
girls of good character and only pretend
to lllrt with their client, the married man
who hires thcin.
"Mr. Selwyn has caught the humor of
this sham, and at the same time has
created a type never brought out here
tofore, either In the drama or In flcUon.
Mr. McRae will bo supported In "Near
ly Married" by the original company ap
pearing at the Gaiety Theatre In New
York last season. They Include An
toinette Walker, In the role of Betty
Llndsav; Kdlth Campbell Wnlker. Alice
