rHERE Is to be only one attraction at English's next week, so that, although the other theaters will be busy, the program of local amusements will be loss varied than usual. The one attraction at English's comes on Wednesday in “Eben Holden.” ft dramatised novel, in which E. M. Holland la starring. The Grand will have vaudeville, aa usual, with Katherine Bloodgood at the head of the bill; the Parte will have two attractions, a farcecomedy and a melodrama, and the Empire will have a week of burlesque. English’s—Eben Holden. rvRAMATlZED novels appear to be los- *-* lag none of their attractiveness, if one may judge by the success which ha.* to “Bbcn Holden." This is one of the latest adaptations for the stage of a popular book. It will be presented at English'* next. Wednesday, matinee, and Bight, under the management of Charles Frohman. "Eben Holden" was written by Irving Bacheller. and In this country and In England It has had an Immense sale. The dramatisation was made by Edward E. Rose, who adapted "Alice of Old Vincennes," *"ft> Have and to Hold” and “David Hamm." "Eben Holden" recently completed a run of nearly one hundred nights at the New Savoy Theater. New York. The play is to return to New York next month. Mr. Rose’s version adheres closely to the original story. The love theme relates to the heart affaire cl Will Brewer and his foster-sister, Hope, whose complete happiness, after a aeries of disastrous misunderstandings, is finally brought about by genial old

The machinations of Livingston make Will appear to be unresponsive to Hope's affection, and there is a stirring scene, ending with the departure of

liked at the Park. ,

The company Is headed by the Blondells, clever funmakers Supporting them are the Cosmopolitan Trio, singing specialists; McMahon and Chappell, singing and dancing team; Alonso Lang, Adolph Katsenjammer, to whom all troubles flow; Branneck sisters, singing and dancing specialty; Master Bergeman, Ramsey sisters, musical specialty; Jack Slmonds, who plays one of the leading parts; Signor Heck and others. There are two hours and a half of fun and the Blondells have added more new features than ever.

A Homespun Heart.

“A Homespun Heart,” which, as its title indicates, is a play of country life, will be the bill at the Park next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It Is a rural play, full of country folks, homely clothes, and provincial conversation, but it has the scent of flowers, the atmosphere of the fields the charm of a country v..,age. The story tells of the love of a manly young farmer and his old playmate, who for a time are parted by the efforts of a harsh old money-lender, aided In his wrong-doing by a heartless adventuress, but who, in the-end, are defeated through the efforts of the heroine’s half-witted brother. The cast la one of merit and includes Blanche Warren, Lulu Espey, Lucille Allen Walker, Estelle Howard, Fred Moniey, Harry L. Dunklnson, Azack L>. Evans. Will M. Chapman, Charles W. Porter and Merrill Frederick. “A Homespun Heart" is by Hal Reid, and is said to be as good as “Human Hearts” and "The Night Before Christmas.’’ It will begin its engagement with Thursday’s matinee.

The Empire—Burlesque.

|>k INKINS'S "UTOPIANS” will be seen D at the Empire all the week. Besides an olio of specialty acts, two burlesques— ‘There Is Something Doing” and "The Coming Champion"—will be seen. Harry Gordon, George N. Topack and Lillian Washburn supply the fun in the burlesques. The Empire City Quartet, Klein and Clifton, Fonner and Carter, Gordon, Vldocq and Perry, Washburn and Topack and the Jasselin Trio are in the olio.

E. H. Sothern’s Plana

| N course- of an Interview the other day * Mr. Sothern discussed his various projects of next season. “I have many plans in contemplation," said Mr. Sothern. Mr. McCarthy, the author of Tf I Were

Mra Patrick Campbell’s "Magda"— Rostrand’s “The Romanesques.” [Special to The Indianapolis News.] EW YORK. January* 18.—Orchestra stalls at the opera were deserted on Monday night, when Mrs. "Pat" Campbell, as she is affectionately known in London, made her bow to the metropolis in "Magda" at the Theater Republic. They were deserted again on Thursday night when the same star presented “Tho Second Mrs. Tanqueray." and it is hardly worth while adding that Mrs. Campbell made just the impression she had wished for. Fashionable society packed the Theater Republic and gave the charming "Mrs. Pat” a most hospitable welcome. With scarcely an exception the dramatic critics highly praised her work. But there Is a question# Is Mrs. Campbell’s “Magda” the “Magda” of the play? Mrs. Campbell’s "Magda,” who returns to her home after years of hardship, disillusion, bohemian life, and finally great success on the stage, Is without a touch of softness. All through this flying visit she is a cynical outsider, who wonders how she ever could have lived in the cramped surroundings of a virtuous household. When she Accidentally encounters von Keller, the government official, who seduced her while she was in poverty at Berlin, and her father suspiciously! demands an explanation of their relationship, it is easy to see that it is simply anger and resentment that drives the woman to tell all. The threat of the old army officer to kill her unless, she clears her name by marrying the man who betrayed and deserted her, leads to a scene of angry defiance on her part. Here Mrs. Campbell did not play on the sentiments of the audience. If the scheme of patching up her reputation is to be carried through, she must conceal the fact that she has a chMd. She refuses, not through love for the child, but because she has worked for him successfully. The thing she won’t do is to give up her vocation. It may kill her father, disgrace her sister, deprive herself of the last shred of respectability, but she takes the risk. All agree that In appearance Mrs. Campbell fits the play perfectly, that her art Is very finished and polished, but her “Magda” does not touch the heart nor sting the eyes with tears. Her "Magda” is a~brlUiant, self-willed and beautiful singer, who can not live without the excitement and triumphs of the stage. That is all. Of the company not so much good is said—with the exception of Herbert Waring, who played Von Keller exceptionally well. But for him the scene might Just as well have been laid In the outskirts of London, so English was the atmosphere. A cur lain raiser, so uncommon as to merit special mention, has been put on to precede “Sweet and Twenty," at the ! Madison Square Theater. It is described on the program as an act of “The Romanesques.” by Edmond Rostand—one of his earlier works—and it has been made into a clever little one-act play by George Fleming. It Is written In verse, and is a mild little burlesque of the "Romeo and Juliet" idea. The parents of the youthful pair of lovers are bent on making a match between them, and so make the courtship as difficult as possible, even going to the extent of building a wall between their respective estates to keep the boy and girl apart. The parents believe that to have this romantic incident attached to the courtship would more sincerely and deeply cement the sweethearts’ love. There is an abduction of the girl and a rescue by the boyall planned secretly by the fathers, which brings about the desired result with mathematical precision. Miss Elizabeth Tyree, who gave a sprightly and fascinating performance of the boy lover, scored the principal hit. She read M. Rostand’s lines delightfully. Miss Isabel Irving as the girl made a lovely picture and played with simplicity and girlishness. Miss Tyree in knickerbockers was very fetching,

indeed.

W. H. Thompson, Ellis N. Harris and

Stanley Dare completed the cast.

Richard Mansfield Is going to give the Actors’ Home a benefit before he takes "Beaucaire" away from the Herald Square Theater. He will do some choice bits of acting from bis previous roles. As soon as the announcement was made checks for money began to pour Into the box office, some paying as high as flOO for a seat and 1250 for a box. Mr. Mansfield Is the first

star to give such a benefit.

imaginatively, too, as if for him. as well as for its oompoaer, it pictured a long train of Polish nobles and ladies; as if for him, as for the native Pole, this polonaise were “the symbol of war and love, a vivid pageant of martial splendor, a weaving,

and fullness.

*or these tosses, however, this voice still outranks the little voices, younger and fresher though they be, as a star outshines a candle. But with Madame Lehmann. the voice side, pure and simple, is and always was, a second consideration. First, with her come art and feeling. And as she has mastered the on$, and is rarely dowered with the other, she is able at an age when with many women active life has become a memory, to hold and thrill her audiences. Her program madJ enormous demands, vocally and dramatically, and so marvelously did she meet them that for the younger generation at least, she set standards by which later artiste for many a day will be measured. Her delivery of that most noble of all Wagnerian arias, “Dich Theure Halle,” was triumphant and unrivaled, in recent years here, * unequa'ed. The sumptuous voice, the prodigality and power with which it was used, and the intensity of sympathy which burned in it, brought to life again all the splendid pageantry of that mediaeval scene like to

The "llebestod” was sung in the same exalted styled the style by which Lehmann long ago proved herself to the Wagnerian manAer born. But not only in the grand aria, but in the small song did she excel. On the ballad by Clayton Johns, "Where Blooms the Rose,” she spent herself and her art quite as lavishly.

Jan Kubelik’s Recital.

Jan Kubelik, the young Bohemian violinist, will play at English’s Thursday, January 30. Boone MeKee is bringing him. The event will be of great interest, as Kubelik is the most remarkable figure of the season in the eye of the concert going public in this country. His success since his arrival, less than two months ago, has been of the phenomenal order. The secret of Kubelik’s hold upon his hearers wherever he plays lies in the breadth of his appeal. Nothing about him is more remarkable than the fact that he is a favorite of the fashionable set in London and New York, and at the same time distinctly a player for the masses. In New York he was quickly taken up by society folk, but not before h<* had made an enormous popular success. He owes little of this success to the musical critics, for they have not failed to point out faults in his playing, nor does he owe it chiefly to the musically cultured among his hearers. His appeal includes these and the critics, but does not stop there. Anyone, be be musician or not. can enjoy Kubelik's music.

drama, with its three personages of father, son and Erlkcenig each distinct and real. And still this was not all. With a graciousness not to be expected under all the circumstances, Madame Lehmann returned to the stage and courteously announcing a dance-song by Grieg, fairly tripped it off with tne coquetry of sixteen. From "Dich Theure Halle” to this blithesome dance was touching the antipodes. Madame Lehmann's reception on her first appearance has been puralr leled here on few occasions, and th* same was true of the applause at the close of every number, especially the last. Respect, admiration, gratitude, even affection mingled in it, and manifestiy, these were for the woman as well as the

artist.

Josef Hofmann, who was associated with Madame Lehmann in the recital, is an astonishing player. He can do all sorts of difficult and surprising things in finger-heroics, and is not averse to showing it. He plays a Liszt rhapsody as effortlessly as a Chopin berceuse Heavy chord masses fail from his fingers easily and crisply. The ceierity of his runs is nOt remarkable in this generation of pianists that literally run races with each other. Mr. Hofmann is not a strlver after impossible tempos, and for this relief the really musical portions of hds audiences, will exclaim, “Much thanks!" He is well schooled in this regard, better than in dynamics. Thr "Sonata Appassionata” elicited admiration at every point, yet left the impresslon that here and there Beethoven had been retouched In order to hlghten the dynamic contrasts. To the slow m’ovement he did not entirely unbend, but the final allegro, with its stinging shower of floriture, started all hands clapping and several voices to shouting "Bravo.” Schumann's “Nachtstueck” he played beautifully, romantically. The “Caprice Esnagnole” was eotable chiefly for the delicacy with which its embellishments were rendered, spun as fine as a spider's weh» Moreover, Mr. Hofmann is versatile, as far as one may judge from a program which was of tolerably wide range, though in nothing unconventional. He played the A-flat major polonaise of Chopin with the “grip” that Huneker pleads for. and yet elegantly, played it

jotted military service, for which the time had come. This matter was arranged with the Hungarian government through the good offices of King Edward of England, who has shown the violinist favor in other ways. Kubelik’s party on Ms present tour consists of his European manager, Hugo Gorlitz; his secretary, Mr. Scrivan, and Mrs. Scrivan; his accompanist. Rudolf Friml. and his valet. The name is pronounced KoO-be-Uck, accenting the first syllable. He played Thursday evening at the Auditorium, in Chicago, and plays there again this afternoon. In New York and Brooklyn, in eleven concerts, 26,000 people heard Kubelik play. He is at his best in the compositions of Paganini. The greatest success has been made In Paganini’s concerto in D major. The Wagner Lecture Recitals. The Wagner lecture recitals to be given here by Carl Ambruster and Miss Pauline Cramer, offer the best opportunity which has been afforded In Indianapolis, to hear the works of the Bayreuth master expounds^. The original dates for the lectures have been changed to Saturday, January 25, and Wednesday, January 29. The sale will open January 23 at the Starr piano store. *- MacDowell’s Recital Postponed. Edward A. MacDowell, who was engaged by the Matinee Musicale to give a recital here February 5, is ill, and has been obliged to cancel his engagements for February. He will play here In March, however, at a date yet to be fixed. What Bauer will Play. Mr. Harold Bauer, the delightful pianist, who will be heard here, January 27, wkh the Symphony Orchestra, will play the Beethoven concerto In E flat. This will be the second symphony concert of the season.

Groa, the Incidental music is by William Furst and the play has been staged per-

sonally by Mr. Rose.

The Grand—Vaudeville.

XHE vaudeville bill at the Grand next 1 week will have KatHerine Bloodgood as the "headliner." Mrs. Bloodgood, prior to her entrance Into the vaudeville field, was a society woman of Brooklyn. She has a voice of much sweetness, depth and flexibility and her songs are all high class. The next strongest feature of the bill Is the Kauffmans, a troupe of eight bicycle riders. Six of them make their appearance at first and go through the usual evolutions and do some remarkable riding tricks; then the other two riders appear and the eight ride about the stage In solid formation. Jules and Ella Garrison are billed as "burlesque tragedy stars”: they do an act entitled “A Bit of Nonsense.” A. L. Gruelle. formerly tenor with the Metropolitan opera company, is also on the bill for a singing turn. Frank Gardner and Lottie Vincent appear in a musi- j cal farce entitled - .a Shattered Idol,” mads up of mualc and dancing.

The Career of E. M. Holland. M. HOLLAND, who plays the lead ing role in the dramatization o'

"Eben Holden,” is a son of George Holland, of the old Wallack company, and was born in New York in 1848. When fifteen years old he became call boy at Mrs. John Wood's Olympic Theater m lower Broadway, near Blencker street, which was soon given over to George Fox and the phenomenal run of “Humpty Dumpty.” Three years later Mr. Holland joined the company at Barnum’s Museum as a player of small parts. From 1867 to 1880 he was identified with Lester Wallack and afterward became a member of A. M. Palmer’s Union Square stock company, making his first appearance m “French Flats,” a farce. Later he went with McKee Rankin on a prolonged tour covering both England and America, playing the judge in “The Danites.” After Palmer moved up to the Madlsen Square Theater Mr. Holland rejoined the company and scored a hit in “Jim the Penman,” which drama ran steadily through the season of 1886-1887. In 1835, when Richard Mansfield took over Harrigan’s Theater and renamed It the Garrick, he brought together the Holland brothers, E.

M. and Joseph, as Joint stars.

Under his management, while he himself was on the road, the Hollands appeared in a drama which Mansfield had been reserving for his own use—‘‘A Social Highwayman." In this Joseph was a gentleman moving in good society, who lived by preying on the valuables of his friends, and E. M. Holland was his valet, whose devotion to his rascally master was one of the most touching things seen in any of the modern plays. The play made a hit, and It was largely due to the senior Holland’s acting of the man-serv-ant. After this tour E. M. Holland went Into the Frohman camp and appeared in

numerous farces from .the French, such as “On and Off,”’ “Never Again.” “The Husbands of Leontine" and “The Lash of a Whip.” He also played the villain In the Drury Lane melodrama, “Hearts Ar* Trumps,” and achieved one of the hits of the performance. He won strong praise for his portrayal of the hero of Irving Bacheller’s story during its recently completed run at the New Savoy Theater, New York. This is the first rural character he has played in years. Dramatization of Lazarre. [New York Telegraph.] a MONO the recent successful novels making ready for the stage Is “Lazarre,” written by Mrs. Mary Hartwell Catherwood. The report, however, that It will be presented this season Is Incorrect. From its Inception it has had a peculiar connection with the player who will in all probability present it. Four years ago a Milwaukee friend of Otis Skinner called his attention to the theatrical possibilities in the career of Eleazar Williams, known as the “American Dauphin." Mr. Skinner placed himself In communication with the Rev. Mr. Merrill, for many years a missionary at the Green Bay reservation of the Oneida Indians. From him he obtained much unpublished information concerning the career in this country of the claimant to the throne of the Bourbons, and the traditions retained among the Oneidas. The dramatic contrast that lay in the transfer of a backwoodsman, a veritable leatherstocking, to the scenes of brilliant civilization at the court of France appealed strongly to the actor, but other plans prevented his using the material. Among his friends is Mrs. Catherwood, for whose ability as a novelist he has the highest admiration. During a conversation with her he suggested the ftory of this American king as an attractive theme for a novel and submitted his data. "Lazarre” is the result. Notes of the Stage. Among the attractions billed for early appearance at the Grand are Lucille Saunders. Willis P. Sweetman, Laman and Gabriel, and Stella Lee. Mildred Holland has a new play written by Carina Jordan entitled "The Lily and ” she will produce it in Buffa-

discussion so frequently it has been the custom to refer to Us presentation by Lawrence Barrett as its first production. This Is an error, “Francesca da Rimini” was staged at the old Broadway Theater, in New York, by Ethelbert A. Marshall, in 1856. The cast Included Edward L. Davenport, as Lanciotto; Charles Fisher, as the Jester, and Madame Ponisl in the title role. Later in the year Julia Dean appeared as Francesca in support of Davenport, and there is a tradition that Mra. John Drew was also seen In the title role.
