THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH,' FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 1890.
GENIUS OB THE STAGE
Sheridan's Rivals Presented by Jef
ferson, Florence and Mrs. Drew
IS THE MOST ARTISTIC HAMER.
The Players Arrive Late, but a Large Audi
ence Greets Them Warmly.
A GREAT
IN DETAIL
PEnFOKllASCE
The 'world will neTer cease wondering
how a young man of but 24 contrived to
write "The Rivals," a comedy which for
unity, broad, humorous incident and spark
ling wit has never been excelled, unless it
be in some regards by the same author's
"School for ScandaL" Yet Richard Brins
ley Butler Sheridan to give him his full
name was but in his 24th year when "The
Rivals" was given lor the first time in
Covent Garden Theater, London, on Janu
ary 17, 1775. It is a remarkable fact that
"The Rivals" has never lost its original
popularity, but rather on the contrary
seems to win more admirers as time pro
ceeds. On the occasion of its first presenta
tion the play did not achieve instant ap
proval. It was too long although Mr.
Sheridan had, with the help of
Mr. Harris, manager of Covent Garden
Theater, curtailed it greatly before its
production. For this reason, and because
Mr. Lee played Sir Lucius 0' Trigger very
unsatisfactorily, the firit performance of the
play excited no enthusiasm. Although
Sherid an at
tributed the
rather cool re
ception of "The
Rivals" to the
machinations
of a hostile
clique of small
critics and
others, he cut
off many of the
remaining ei

bloodshed. It is a great performance a su
perbly humorous one.
It is not because we consider her least
that we take Mrs. Drew into consideration
last of the triumvirate, but that the praise
that must be bestowed on her might gain
warmth by keeping. Mrs. Halaprop, the
old lady who so nicely "deranges her eoi
taphs,'1 and put such store by "ineflectual
learning," has
A PEEFECT DELINEATION
in Mrs. John Drew. She, too, seems to
have stepped out of some eighteenth cen
tury picture frame and brought the affecta
tion, the ceremonious bows, the very voice
of our great grandmothers with her. Not a
single cne of those awful blunders in
language which Sheridan has given to Mrs.
Halaprop does Mrs. John Drew waste or
fritter. Each familiar misstep tries one
into unurged laughter. The interview be
tween Captain Absolute and Mrs. Malaprop
is the lunniest no, it is one of the funniest
of all the laughable things that "The
Rivals" with such Interpreters affords.

It is lucky that the modern acting edition
of the play is very much shorter than the
original, or some of our readers might still
be sittiug in the Grand Opera House and
laughing, without breakfast. Throusrh an
unfortunate failure to make connections on
the journey from Cincinnati to this city, the
Jefferson-Florence Company did not reach
the city till about 9 o'clock, and the curtain
did not rie upon the play till a minute be
fore 10. During the long wait the audience
was entertained by the orchestra, which
worked very hard. Most of the audi

There is not a great variety of emo
tions in Bob Acres for inttpretation : the
character is a superb satire upon weak hu
man nature, full of amiable conceit, blind
to his own faults, and void of aggressive
ness in any form. Bob Acres' rural color,
his newly adopted foppishness, the struggle
incessantly in progress in his mind between
vanity and rank cowardice in fact, the
characterin all its subtle details is em
bodied, pictured and projected upon the
stage by Mr. Jefferson. Mr. Jefferson, we
dare to think, makes more of Icres than
Sheridan put in him.
THE DTJEL SCENE
is the most broadly humorous episode but
the quieter comedy of Jefferson's in the
earlier scenes is even more delicious to us.
The character of Sir Lucius O' Trigger is
ol course meant to contrast with Bob Acres
most strongly, but the contrast never conld
have been made more absolute than Mr.
Florence as the fire-eating, rollicking Irish
man, contrives it shall be. The turn of Mr.
Florence's tongue for the brogue is an an
cient accomplishment of his faith, he
must have been born with it.
His make-up as does Mr. Jefferson's
makes one think of Reynold's picture, the
Colva Tree, Dr. Johnson, and the days when
George the Third was King. One would
swear Mr. Florence had worn small clothes
and a wig all his days, and that his hand
wai, as accustomed to the hilt ol a sword as
it is to the butt of a fishing pole. AVe do not
know whether to admire Mr. Florence most
in his delightfnljflirtation with Lucy or dic-
fating the challenge to Acres, or nmn th
field of honor, doing his best to promote j
Luckily all these three pre-eminently
shone, the company as a whole showed
full capability to make the play a well
painted picture as a whole. None of the
characters were out of drawing and no
obtrusive ambition in a minor actor
marred the perspective of the scene. Mr.
Frederick Paulding was admirable as Cap
tain Absolute, and the young soldier's father
Sir Anthony was strongly and most care
fully placed by Kdwin Varrey. Miss
Viola Allen was as romantic and nrettv
and very spontaneous in her moods as
Lydia Languish could well be. The David
ot Mr. Denham showed what pains and
study, coupled with native ability, can do
for a small character. The costumes were
very handsome.
The audience was a very large and repre
sentative one.
WHY MET CAME LATE.
The company had many vicissitudes on
their trip. They left Cincinnati at 11 o'clock.
Pittsburg time, Wednesday nieht, via the
"Nypano" road. Their special'car was at
tached to train No. 12, which arrives in
Youngstown at 11:40 and Pittsburg at 1:30
in the afternoon. The train was delayed by
the heavy snow, which drifted in many
places along the road three or four feet deep.
The tram was abandoned on the "Nypano"
between Cincinnati and Youngstown, and
when turned over to the Lake Erie it was
about seven hours late. The special car was
attached to train No. 20, which should have
arrived at 8:55, city time. It was a few min
utes late.
As soon as the train arrived at the South
side depot the company of 15 people were
hurriedly bundled into two omnibuses and
driven to the playhouse. Their car will be
sent to Homestead, there to be transferred to
the Pittsburg, Virginia and Charleston road
and run over their tracks to the Union sta
tion. The company will leave Sunday
morning for New York via the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
NOT WITHOUT PARALLEL.
Judge While's Decision In tbo Itllnnlck Cnso
Recalls Another.
Some people seem to thiufc the incarceration
of W. J. Minnick, of Braddock, stands alone
in its character in this county, but such is not
the case, and it is supposed to be possible that
other people have been committed to that insti
tution with as little reason, but it Is a difficult
matter to determine what is best to be done in
all cases, as not many years ago a man named
Moore was released whom Dr. Reed believed
to be wrongly detained, and the subject a few
weeks after cut his throat, thus vindicating the
judgment of those who had him committed.
Minnick's case recalls one containing coinci
dences. It isNo. 408 Jnlyterm, 1SS2. Charles
A. O'lJrlen, Esq. had Hannah Jones broufht
from Dixmont on a writ of habeas corpus. It
was alleged that she had been committed at the
Instance of some relatives whowished to secure
her money. Judge White heard testimony and
viKMiuui iu uic juanur anu at 113 conclusion
ordered the woman's discharge. Three points
of resemblance are pointed out in the two
cases. The Jones case came trom Braddock,
tho motive for incarceration was contended to
be not proper, and the same Judge heard the
caso and disposed of it

The fact is fully established in the mind of the public that our bar
gain sales are genuine, that our offerings are tempting, and that every
representation made is carried out to the letter. Hence the success which
has followed our efforts to please the people.
Besides the bargains which we have already published both in high
and medium grades of Shoes, there are others which we can quote every
day in the week if so disposed. With an immense stock to rely upon
our means to gratify all tastes is inexhaustible, and we take pleasure in
leading the mind into new channels of thought on the all-important sub
ject of Footwear.
Naturally one will buy where the greatest real value is triven.and we
desire you to think this over. We mean where the best goods for the
money are sold. Prices are somewhat confusing unless you know the
value of the goods. After you see them, handle them and give them
every turn that close scrutiny would suggest, we have no fear for the re
sult When we say that a bargain exists in a certain line of goods, re
member we have digested the subject well; it would be folly to throw out
some worthless things, calling them by misleading names and putting on
a price which seems cheap that is, way down in figures, but not cheap
in reality. Understanding the value ot goods, we never issue a bargain
that has not been fully considered in our judgment to mean that the
buyer can gain a decided advantage in purchasing it. Shoes at regular
prices vary but little, except when the market affects changes by rapid
fluctuations. When these regular prices, then, are cut for some specific
purpose, as for example our enlargement sale, this means that we are
happy to give the public a chance at that particular time r.-ithpr than
move our goods that the contractor's work may not be impeded. This
explains why, at a juncture like the present, we are willing and able to
make bargains all along the line and move our goods at a liberal dis
count right where they are needed.
As an illustration we quote two only of the many bargains offered
which, mind you, is a continuation of our bargain sale talk:
A GENTLEMAN'S FINE CALF WELT SHOE, either in Bal., But
ton or Congress, all styles of lasts, finished in good taste, a shoe which
we warrant, at $2.90. This is a regular 4 Shoe, upon which you save
$1.10.
A LADIES' FINE FRENCH DONGOLA, hand-turned or hand
sewed, Common Sense and Opera lasts, all widths, warranted in every
particular, at the ridiculously low price of 2.90. This is a regular 4
Shoe, upon which you make a clean saving of 1.10.
A saving can be effected on all other goods in every department in
this great enlargement sale.
