'Kicg Lear received a magnifi- cent presentation at Harper's the- tre last evening at the hands of Frederick Warae. ' King Lear'' is not one of these Shakespearean trsg- cdies to which great actors are ac cuftomed to apply their talents. Its conception is so great that the under taking may Mn ihoee of lest ambi tion and intellect than Mr. Wardc. Tae outlines of passion a&d of pithos are M closely interwoven . in the character of the stern, yet re- lentless old king, that to assume the .the I l'laices river and the Illinois role the versatility of genias Is tsxd river and it tributary canal from to the utmost. It is with this c m- Henn-pin to Rock Island, thus giv viction that Mr. Warde is appreciated injr caral in!ets to the Mississippi, the more, for the actor who up- 359 miles apart.

Dirrell Vinton "s Edmund, the ille-j tjmiuate con of Uloslcr and the evil' eiiiu3 of much of the action, wan j creditable, while Charles V. Suttuu as ridt'ar. the legitimate son, was n clever adaptation, and the duel be tween thes-e two in the lait icene was a thrilling piece of sword practice. The slight but beautiful part ot Cor delia was sweetly portrayed by tiorenco Wilburhaia, while the chat actcrs of (i oneril and Began, the king's favored hut faithless daugh ters, assumed by Reia Villicrg and Marcia Treadwell, re'pectively, wore natural. The remainder of the cast was well selected. The play received the accampani ment ot some of the best stage real ism ever seen at Harper's theatre, not only in the general scenic etfects. but in the mechanical and electrical adjuncts, this being particularly demonstrated in the storm on the heath in the third act. HarpT's theatre was graced bv one of us old time representative andiences, an audiente which in numbers and character was convinc ing to the management that the re turn to the legitimate and best c'.as of productions will 2uJ response on the part of an appreciative public, even in the old play house.
