Margaret Anglin in Notable Revival
Margaret Anglln Is ono of the really com
paratively few great living actresses. Ono
speaks of "great living actresses" tho nmjorlty
of great actresses, of course, being doad. The
Bamo Is Inevitably truo of great, very great,
playwrights.
Howovor, Miss Anglln Is very much alive so
much so that hor husband figures In automo
bile arrests while she, hor-clf, revives n play
written by ono of tho most hiilllant men of
tho century a man to whom, lying In a gravo
In Montmartre, has como a full and deserved
recognition for surpassing wit and genius.
"Lady Windermere's Fan," In which Miss
Anglln appeared last night at tho Broad Street
Theatre, la a play of ndmlrable technique, an
evening's dramatic menu In which every course
Fh served' with tartar sauce. There has never
been a more seductive, a more subtle, a more
delightfully worldly Mrs. Erlynne than tho one
presented by Mlsa Anglln. Miss Anglln makes
that brilliant woman, of a dubious character,
really winning. On the stngo this typo usually
Isn't. In Wllde'a play this .woman, tragical In
her life, becomes n mother desirous of protect
ing her child. Mrs. Erlynno Is perhaps tho
most nppeallng character in tho AVlldo plays.
As such, Mlsa Anglln played tho part with an
Intellectual understanding, an artistic restraint
which Wlldc himself would have admired.
If "Lady Windermere's Fan" Is already an
nuachronlsm so far aa upper Fifth avenuo or
Rlttenhouse Square aro concerned, Its satire
on social and homo frailty Is quite as apropos
as when Wlldo wrote It. As a play It is far
superior to the Eugeno Walter ahd 'Gua Thomas
productions na they attempt to deal, seriously
or otherwise, with social and other problems.
Miss Anglln's cast la admirable. Ruth Holt
Bouclcnult Is a sclntlllant Duchess of Berwick.
Florence Carpenter, as Lady Windermere, was
Insinuatingly captivating. Whllo .Sidney Grccn
strcot played Lord Lorton Incomparably, there
havo been much better Lord Wlndermeres than
thnt enacted by Leonard Wllley, tho heralded
Austiallan star. Mr. Wllley was a bit too In
tense too Intense, you know. Altogether, Miss
Anglln's revival la notable. It Is perhaps one
of tho best, If not tho best, preaentatlon or
Oscar Wlldo'8 delectable play.
boring one. It Is a hlgh-wnter mark of
banality and bathos, and a typo of the sort
of thing which makes one wonder at tho tem
porary mental comas of vaudeville managers.
On the other hand, the rest of the Keith bill
con only arouse admiration for the Intelligent
selection. It la hugely entertaining. Mae Mp
vlllo Is as delightfully funny as ever. Paul

Is genuinely diverting.
"Nearly Married" at the Garrick
Governor Tenor, of tho sovereign State of
Pennsylvania, aided- and abetted an elopement
last night. This In Itself wns reprehensible
enough, but his full Iniquity wll be understood
whon It Is announced 'hat the etopement was
between n man nnd his own wife. Just whnt
pxcuso the president of tho National League will
mnko remains to be seen. But aside from this
official fnux pns. "Neatly Married," which came
back to the Ganick last night with n cast new,
with the exception of tho stnr. Bruce McRae,
proved a pleasant entertainment.
Thn main criticism of tho play, which has
been reviewed before, is Its exceeding sllmnoss
If brevity be thi- soul of wit. then "Nearly Mar
ried" Is the wittiest play of tho ages, for It
lasted Just ono hour and 27 minutes. It began
nt half-past 8 and finished nt half-past 10, with
two 15-mlnute Intermissions.
Bruco Mcltnn, who Is a living duplicate In
looks and manners and speech of Archie Gunn,
thr nrtlst, was a bit heavy In the role of the
bedeviled husband. Hattlo King, the profes
sional co-respondent, was fairly truo to life,
though a bit hard. Gertrude Robinson and John
McCabe, as the other wedded couple, did well,
as did Dick Glffen as the obnoxious brother.
Smaller parts were played, and played well, by
Dolmar E. Clark as tho East Indian. Beatrice
Ingram as his Irish wife, John Sparks as tho
Justice of peace, and Danny Day as tho chauf
feur. Antoinette Walker was Betty Lindsay, the
foolish heroine
Tukcn all In all. "Nearly Married" Is a merry
comedy, broad at times, but entertaining never
theless, but too biief withal, save for tho in
excusably long Intermissions.

A S'rikhig Miracle Pla)
"Prate's Daughter," the miracle nlav by
Francis L. Kenzel, a Roman Catholic priest,
was piodin.ed last Ight at tho Chestnut Street
Opera House. One of the unique features of
he production Is that there are no male char
acfia In it.
Apart from tho spectacular aspects of the
play, It has a strong rellgloua appeal the ap
peal of such plajs as "Bon Hur" and "The olgn
of tlm Cross." "Pi'ute's Daughter" is founded
on the old Icgoinl relating to the daughter of
Pontius Pilate. According to this, Claudlu, the
daughter of the proconsul, threw a rose from
her bplcony ns Christ was being led to Calvary.
The flower touihcd h's garment, and although
It was trod upon by hundreds when the girl
-r-povcred it. the rose still b'oomed.
Ten wars later the perpetually b'oo-ning rose
waa used to work miracles. A spring is made
