MISS HAMPER GIVES OPHELIA REAL LIFE - - *1 Mantell Again Presents to the Stage His Conception of Hamlet as a Man Who Was Both Clever and a ;*>• . - Good Actor When It Comes to Revenge. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN There Is to the Ophelia of Miss Genevieve Hamper that quality of humanism which makes a very complex character seem real. Her Ophelia, both as the normal girl and the mad dame who raves over her flowers as great gifts, has that convincing quality which makes the character step out of the printed page. Last night in “Hamlet,” Miss Hamper read her lines in
that splendid clear beauty which has endeared her to thousands. Shakespeare to me must be read so that every word may be understood all over the house. Ophelia has a song to sing, one of tragedy, one of love and hope. Her mental castle crashes at her feet. Poor Ophelia and Miss Hamper makes you feel the beautiful sadness of this experience of life that Ophelia encounters. Here is fine
character work, done with a lovely and intelligent touch. Careful and 'dear reading of every line was given by Miss Hamper last night. I often have told you about the Hamlet of Mr. Mantell. One time in the presence of Miss Hamper in an interview, he told me that age to him made no difference

I was glad that I sat way back because I realized the beauty and sincerity of Mantell when he told me in so many words that Hamlet knows no age. And Mr. Mantell’s Hamlet as to voice knows no age. I can pay him no better compliment. He goes beyond physical and age handicap—the voice is what counts. Mantell again read Shakespeare last night. There were several other good contributions last night. Those of John Alexander as Laerties; Frederic W. Hile as Ghost of Hamlet’s father, and the Polonius of Philip Quin. The cast of “Hamlet” is as follows: Hamlet Mr. Mantell Bernado, an officer John Schellhaas Horatio, a friend to Hamlet. .Bruce Adams Polonius. Lord Chamberlain..

COLLEGE ACTOR AT THE PLAYHOUSE Anything to be accepted is the ladder upon which the social climber strives to reach the top. To have servants that once were nobility, Russian preferred, is a high rung, but the rungs all fall out and the ladder is much shorter when the servants turn out to be just “crooks.” That situation that confronted the audience that saw “The New Poor” last night. The servants walk out, more must be gotten at once and a daughter of the family gets a grand duke, a count, a prince and a princess for servants. Exiles from Russia—so they said. And the head of the house is finally informed that his valuable paintings have been stolen and the “royalty” arrested. The Russians turn out to be “crooks” and the grand duke is the “king of crooks” —in a play that he was in that failed. The three daughters had fallen in love with the servants and the son is in love with the “princess.” And whether thieves or no they are all in love and resent any insinuations made at each other. And the cousin, who is an author of detective stories, is the only one who is

wrong. Dreadfully so. There were three outstanding players in the comedy given by Thespis, of Butler University. The part of Constance Welby, taken by Dixie McKay, was that of the ultra flapper type and Miss McKay played the part to the finish. “Amos,” the son, was one of the retiring sort of men who has stepped into his father’s shoes and worn them. Robert Maney did a good piece of work in that part. The “Grand Duke Boris,” and it seems he had many other names, too, was the key to the whole situation and Hamilton Clarke made a grand duke. The trusted friend of the family, “Miller Guttridge,” was the real thief as it turned out. This character was subordinated throughout the play and only at the end was any suspicion thrown on him. Curtis Hunter had the part of “Gutteridge.” The whole cast was good and had adapted themselves to the play.

store. Illinois and Washington Sts., this city, and interviewing the Konjola Man, where he is personally explaining this new medicine to the public. "Konjola is first of all anew, advanced remedy,” explained the Konjola Man, yesterday. "It is a liquid containing .medicinal extracts from twenty-two plants of nature. This compound works with the sufferer's own food, restoring the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels to better action. It removes the poisons which cause most of the chronic aches and pains, and therefore, the people who take Konjola nearly always report new feelings of health over their body in general. Another surprising statement has been received, which shows more clearly what Konjola is doing for the stomach sufferers in this vicinity. The statement came from Mrs. Jennie Holding, well-known Indianapolis lady, living at 240 Blake St. “Konjola certainly made a great change in me,” said Mrs. Holding. “I don’t look like the same person, and I feel better than I have in years. ‘My worst trouble was with my stomach. My food did not agree with me and shortly after I had eaten a meal a hard rock seemed to form in the very pit of my stomach, Soon afterwards gas would form, causing severe pains and bloating. “I also had much trouble with my liver. This caused me to have a very yellow complexion and to feel sluggish at all times. I was constantly constipated, which caused me severe headaches. “I have now taken one and a half bottles of Konjola and feel improved over my entire system. I was able to eat sauerkraut today for the first time in five years. Diming the past five years I was forced to stay on a diet and it certainly is a pleasure to be able to eat any and all food you like. The gas and bloating has all disappeared and I do not have any more headaches. My complexion is now cleared up, and to look at me you would think I was in perfect health. I never believed that such a small amount of medicine would perform such a miracle. It has really improved my health so much that I gladly offer my statement for publication, in order that other sufferers may benefit by my experience. I cannot begin to give your medicine the praise it deserves, as words will not express my thankfulness. The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is being sold in large quantities at all Hook stores and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section.—Advertisement.
PLOT TO CRUSH UNIONS, CHARGE Metal Trades Leader Says Courts Against Labor. By Times Special WASHINGTON, March 21.—Ninety per cent of the metal working industries of the United States are organized to crush union labor, J. P. Frye, secretary-treasurer of the metal trades department, American Federation of Labor, Tuesday told the Senate sub-committee considering the Shipstead bill to limit the use of injunctions in labor disputes. Although more perfectly organized than most, he said, this is only one example of the way employers have combined to stamp out unions. Their efforts almost uniformly have been upheld through injunction by equity courts, while the efforts of labor to protect itself have been smashed by the courts, he added. In some cases, the Supreme Court itself has rendered dissimilar decisions upon almost exactly the same set of facts, sustaining employers and defeating labor, he said, and the same tendency is shown not only by almost all Federal Courts but in many States by State courts.

GILLIOM AT SEYMOUR Tells Voters to Mark May 8 for Political Housecleaning. By Times Special SEYMOUR, Ind., March 21. “Every voter should mark May 8 on the calendar as housecleaning day in Indiana politics.” Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom, candidate for the Republican nomination for United States Senator, told the Seymour Rotary Club Tuesday. “The forces of bigotry and intolerance,” Gilliom declared, “that have shamed us with their fanaticisms and corruption should be defeated overwhelmingly, so that every Hoosier, when away, can proudly say, ‘l’m from Indiana. Where are you from ?’ ” MEDICAL MEN MEET More Funds for Registration Board Needed, Group Told. At least $15,000 is necessary for the successful operation of the State board of medical registration instead of the $7,000 maximum received yearly, Dr. E. M. Shanklin of Hammond, secretary of the board, declared Tuesday before the Indianapolis Medical Society.
