A "I TKE L- L A poetic suzges.iou rather thau a drama is "Out of the Storm," bj- Eluyn A. Bar roD, with which the perfo-manee at the Alvin began last night It holds a pretty kernel of sentiment, and like a short poem leaves lots to the imagination. It was well acted last night, Thomas A. "Wise being parliulacrlr natural and quaintly humorous as Dan Cusfiit.g a miner. As he sat whittling away at the table, cutting off slivers and throwing out chunks ot rough bat ready philosophy such as his description of his partner, "He's not poetic, he's a gentle man!" he made a mighty pleasant picture. He overshadowed the others, though Miss Henrietta Crossmaa was buoyant anderace ful eaough as the heroine, and Mr. Stevens did what he could with his rather stilted and conventional man with a past. The more important part of the bill was James Mortimer's farcical comedv "Glori ana" not "Gloriani" or "Gloriano" as it appeared on the programme. This is another of Charles Fronman's comedy ven tures, to be classed with "Jane," "Mr. "Wilkinson's "Widows" "The Family Cir cle," "Imagination," etc. It is like the rest, intended simply and entirely to make laughter. It succeeds. A point in its favor is that it does u hat even the funniest farce produced in this decade does not do it steers alto gether clear of impropriety even by distant suggestion, and would not hurt the tender est lambkin in the flock by word or situa tion. As to its story it would take a cork screw to extract it, without breaking it to pieces. The beautiful widow Gloriana is in love with a man who is encaged to another woman. Hoping to discourage Gloriana, Joeelyn, the man she loves, tells her that he has been masquerad ing as a gentleman, but is really a valet. She, romantic soul, loves him all the more in livery. The disguise Joeelyn takes pre cipitates him into a very maelstrom of trouble. The jealous Bussian Count who is courting Gloriana tangles things up bcautilully, and by the time the third act is reached the spectator is thoroughly at sea about the outcome. Unfortunately the author seems to have fallen into confusion and doubt also, and one cannot help think ing that he hit by accident upon the way in which he has chosen to wind up the play. The third act is nothing like the other two for frolicsome fun, and the finale is tame. But the acting in "Gloriana" is capital. Miss Henrietta Crosman as the charming young widow, Gloriana, is ripely and rap turouslv fetching. She Has the touch-and- go diablerie wmch a comedienne in iarce wants most A pretty face, a stunning nsure, which stylish dresses set off, a rip plinc laugh, a twinkling eye and the apparent enjoyment of what she does makes Miss Crossman easily the central figure ot the picture. Then there comes the eccen tric Russian Count interpreted by Edwin Stevens. Mr. Stevens moves as if he had swallowed a gross of watch springs, talks English delightfully broken, has a semi paralytic twitchinjj of the jaw, and more comic angularities of motions and tone than any character actor has crowded into 6nc comedy role in a long time. His drinking bout with the lackey disguised as a gentleman is an artis tic study, and all the more laughable on that account Otis Harlan is the lackey, who makes his share in this drinking scene tell abundantly, and it is the best thing Mr. Harlan has done yet The kick he gives in imitation of Count Etitoff is out rageously funnv. In fact, his constant obtrusion of the lackey's feelings and habits through the gentleman's clothes made more laughter than anything else fast night. Charles B. "Wells was breezy and quietly humorous as Jocdyiu. Misj Louise Alden, especially in her mis tress' clothes in the last act, made an amus ing domestic, whose London accent was too true possibly to be appreciated here. Mr. "Wise had too little to do as the Birming ham father of Joeelyn' i bride. The rest of the company was entirely competent, Miss Kobinson looking very p'retty all she had to do. The audience lauched very heartily at acts 1 and 2, and moderately at act 3 but accepted the whole as a goo'd excuse for laughter. A curtain call followed act 2. The Middleman at the Duqnesne. The vociferous applause that greeted Mr. E. L. Yn'illard last night on his reappear ance as Cyrus lilcnharn was not one of the ordinary kind. No political convention, whose platform had been unanimously adopted, could have surpassed the audience in the Dnquesne Theater in their enthus iasm. For full a minute and a half nothing was heard but clapping of hands and noth ing seen but waving handkerchiefs. "The Middleman" is almost known to all playgoers in Pittsburg,and will therefore be remembered as a play with a very strong story, consistently brought to a happy end. In the role of Cyrus Mcnlarn, the old potter, Mr. Willard has opportunity to touch both poles in the dramatic art the one of sub dued quietness and the other of exalted force. In both instances he shows himself equally powerful. In the first act he "lives" the life of the dreaming artist, whose only object is to find the secret of an lost art Up to the time he learns of his daughter's betrayal, he has no ambition outside his lonely kiln. At the moment the truth flashes upon him his whole individuality is changed. From the absorbed dreamer he becomes a man Cyrui JSlcnkarn, the potter, is now Cynu Dletikarn, the avenging lather. Mr. "Willard, ttrido sensu, is both. If we love him in the beginning for his quiet, quaint ways, we admire him when he uses his force. And be does not exaggerate; therein lies the truth of his art How many actors would not, for instance, in a scene like the one where he calls on heaven for justice, strut from one end of the stage to the other tear ing their hair? Mr. Willard stands still on one spot; his handsare raised and his body vibrates, while his sonorous voice pro nounces the words with an underlaid inten sity and energetic force, that can hardlr be surpassed. In that supreme moment Mr. Willard struct the keynote of true drama tic art Miss Marie Burroughs infuses a note of sincere emotion in the part of Mary Mcnkarn and deserves the highest praise for her work. The two comedy parts ot Jesse Teg and BaUy Todd were ably handled by Messrs. Fred Tyler and Harry Cane and Mr. Louis Massen was very winning as Captain Chandler. The minor parts were all acceptably filled. The scenery was very good, the burning kiln naturally attracting the greatest attention. A German Soldier at the Grand. Mr. James A. Beilly has got a play that suits him to a T It does not pretentnnj V OLDIE-J Ty V.V- fr- new phase in comedy, but, adhering strictly to the laws laid down for producing a drama, that both has to be pleasing and con tain several situations in which the star can show himself to good effect, it is a success. In the part of Max Scldmmtl, the jovial Ger man, Mr. Beilly has an excellent chance to look like the late Joe Emmett, and evi dently has learned a great deal from him, as he" imitates his work in many way s The imitation, however, is very good, and his dancing and singing exceedingly pleas ing. There is a great danger that Mr. Beilly some day may be eclipsed by Bobbie Beilly, Jr., whose performance last night as little Daisy was one of the most wonder ful that has been seen for some time. The boy not only acted the part ot a girl all during the p'lavbut went even so far as to make the famous "split" in the serpentine dance, dressed in a "Little Tuesday" robe. Thomas R. Beattv was naturally well received bv his local friends, and very funny as Mtcltael Slaughtcry. Miss May Templeton looked sweet as Lena Zwcifel and Marguerite was very feelingly portrayed by Miss Florence Merrill. A novel feature was the transferring of the leader's baton to a lady, Miss Ida Gil lesp'e, who presided over the orcnestra as skillfully as any man could do. The capacity of the Grand Opera House was tested to its utmost, and the audience was large and emphatic in its verdict of ap pro ak The Academy of ainslc. Sam Devcrc has just about as good a vau deville company as comes to Pittsburg, and doubtless that was the opinion of the audi ence that crowded the Academy of Music last evening. There is not a bad performer in the entire lot, and there are many ex ceedingly good. One of the great features of the company is Sie Hassan Ben Ali's Itoyal Moorish troupe. There are nine of them. They are dancers, acrobats and jesters of a very high standard. The "Irish Dukes," Leonard and Moran, are an excellent attraction. In a little and inter esting .ketch entitled "Fun at the Club," Faddy McBride and Walton give a thorough-going boxine; exhibition that is worth seeing. The Sisters Coulson are clever sons and dance artists; the Wood Travelli trio are only fair, and C. W. Littlefield, Harry La itose, "The Musical Highleys" and Rowe and Brannen were all well received. Of course Sam Devere and his banjo went well, as usual. His songs, "When I Was a Dear Little Baby" and "Mammie's Little Black-lace Coon," were exceedingly entertaining. Tlio World's Museum-Theater. The interest in the performing dogs last week was so great that the management of this house had to keep them for another week. Yesterday they appeared in a new play entitled "The Hunter's Docs," and it goes without saying that the canines came in for their part of the applause. The in terest m them, however did not overshadow the whole performance, as Messrs. Vic and Harry Leonzo also met with a hearty recep tion. The play was ably acted and well staged all throughout Miss Lillie Kcrslake made her performing pigs do some wonderful tricks in the curio hall, and James Morris, the elastic man, was a wonder to professional and laymen alike, A neat piece of work was done by Miss Lean Sherman, who, with nothing but a common jack-knife, whittled all sorts of things. There were also several minor attractions, and the whole show was heartily enjoyed by the many people present Harry Da is' Xdcn JIusee. The good variety show was the main attraction at this popular house yesterday. Hamilton and Glynn's Metropolitan Com pany furnished the entertainment, and it was a pleasing one. Captain W. L. Marsh showed considerable skill and musical talent in handling the, trombone and the Crane Brothers presented something new and funny in their double bone act Mr. Glynn ranks among the first banjo players in the v country and is ably assisted by Mr. Hamilton on the violin. In the curio hall the gipsies filled a return engagement, and afforded a great deal of pleasure for the ladies, who were anxions to have their fortunes told. Captain Chit tenden showed a very interesting collec tion of Arctic curiosities, which he had gathered during his travels in the Northern seas. The attendance was, as usual, very good, and big crowds filled the house both at afternoon and evening performances. Tho Harris Theater. James H. Wallick and his trained horses, in the melodrama "The B&ndit King," drew two large audiences to this honse yes terday. The horses have improved since their last appearance here. Their acting is excellent This afternoon another ot those popular souvenir matinees will be given", when eeryboy and girl will receive a pretty present, something new being on the books for to-day. ligM MuSns.
