M- Van Bnrcn in Treading Part Enthuses Poll Audiences. Theatrical audiences like Tnelodirama. They have become educated beyond the old fashioned type of the "JE have the papers" play, tout they still like melodrama. "Sherlock Holmes",. which is presented by the Poll Players this week, is frankly melodramatic. There is such a sharp line drawn between the hero and the villain that you can see 'em in the dark and you frequent ly do. Conan Doyle's detective stories cre ated such Immense interest through out the world that William Gillette de termined to arrange them in play form. He played the Star part of Sherlock Holmes and made one of the srreatest successes of bis career. There is a. thrill every few minutes in ttae olav. The clash between crim inals and their pursuers Is always in teresting. In Gillette's dramatisation he has chosen the : Larabee case aa material from which to weave the olot. a irirl has certain letters which will .compromise a foreign nobleman who is about to be married, and nat urally does - . not want to have any scanaai. eoenooE uon x-rui. Moriarity, the king of the criminals, are both striving to get the , letters. Then ensues a battle of wits that Is intenaalv interestlnflr. One of the most exciting scenes Is the first part of the second, act wnere Prr. Mortality's underground office is shown. There is an air of mystery , and suspense about this scene. The -low light the sound of the bmszers I announcing arrivals .and the greenish filMT v . : v - jr - sor's face,-all combine to make an ei. fantiVA nlww of stajre craft. The scene In Holmes quarter in Baker street was also good. The great detective is depicted In the scenes wi th hie ' friend, Dr.' - Watson, which have become famous through the pop ularity of Conan Doyle s booms. - A. B. Van Buren, the popular lead- 1to- man -wan fin In the TKLrt of Sher lock Holmes. Faultfinders might say he looked "too healthy for a character wtio was generally supposed to be ga-unt of build and thin in tne iaee. But you. can't make- a robust man thin in one week. Anyway. Mir. Van Buren brought out everything ' there was in the part Mark Kent gave another of his won derful character portraita. He was pmf Mroarltv. the artan and myster ious figure who ruled- the underworld with an iron hand. Mr. Kent made the professor appear so real that many timid- souls in- tne auaienc bqitcu mm tlma he walked upon the stage. Stuart Fox, who usually plays the dashing young lover, was good In the i-ole -of Dr. Watsoo; - e. permitteo. the detective to practice hds skill and otherwise proved! obliging. - - v Frances Nordstrom, - 4he charming leading lady, didn't have a very prom inent part as Alice . Fa-ulkner, biot she won all hearts by her .wwk as the girl who is the prey of a criminal bandw E. J." Blunkall as Larabee, and Marguerite Starr as -Madge- LaraDee were also capable.' The supporting members of the . cast included Miss Pringle, -aaiss uernara, Mir. " . Williams, " Mr. - Harrington, Mr. Velsey, Mr. Bowser, Mr. Bixby, Mr. Jerwett, and Mr. Fianer. Belasoo's Drama Finely GivenFor. mer Bridgeport Girl in Cast. ' Miss Isabelle Irvlng's entrance on the stage at the Park theatre In "The Concert" last evening, . was marked with the usual greeting of local audi ences for this former Bridgeport young woman. However, it must be said -that, as her work manifested it self in the play, the applause was for the artist as well as the person, xaiss Irving and Leo Ditrichstein appear ed to work together advantageously. WV : rMtrichstein . as the adored mu sic master of his impressionable pupils was fully to the task. The play was a quadrangular treatment of the triangular difficulty that interposed itself. The artistic temperament of the music master quite overcame- his feminine admirers, from his much abused secretary, s who by the -way was-an excellent type of ugliness of face and figure disguising an over whelming sentimetnality, to the charming "Little Butterfly" pupil. Mrs. Dalton. The lattsrs irresponsi bility was effectively enhanced by the acting of her husband, the physically big, strong-minded doctor. He and Miss Irving also were effective in their little play within the play. The pi quancy -of the petite charmer and the nervous disposition of the Professor proved rather incongruous for any thing more than a little tete-a-tete; and, in fact, visions of "incompati bility" were looming in the back ground , when the respective ' husband and wife who had become accustomed to these peculiarities pretended to fall violently in love. - Over a - game of chess the Professor's wife comes back into her own, and the remaining characters have nothing else left than to kiss and make up. . They elope, or at least run away to find their own roof tree, leaving the poor distracted Professor with - his . real sweetheart whom he had - almost forgotten for the moment. They are a picture of domestic bliss as the wife - gets out the accessories for touching up the wonderful curly locks that have con quered so many hearts. , Aside from his acting Leo 'Ditrich stein is a musician. He quite capti vated the "audience "with the moments when he Idled with the piano keys. Miss - Irving was, as she always is. charming in the true sense of the word. Last night she seemed to sug gest Grace George, perhaps not in ap. pearance, but it may have been some thing In the lines. Miss Irving has an established reputation in the thea trical world, and all Bridgeporters are keenly interested in her many suc cessful roles. It would be only fair to say that there are many in the profession who would be compliment ed to feel that they showed an im pression of the art of Isabelle Irving. "THE THREE OF US" Delightful Drama of Western Life De ligbtfnlly Interpreted By Eleanor Cleveland Stock Company. An audience of unusual size for a first night in Bridgeport witnessed the Kieanor Cleveland Stock Company's offering of "The Three of Us", last nignt, at tne Lyric Theatre. ' It was discriminative representative collec tion of theatre-goers and the expres sive applause and vociferous commendation- wifh which they greeted both the selection and acting of the pleas ant, wholesome and unusually human play so aptly chosen for this week, .is buit another tribute to the cast and management for their perspicacity in pleasing the public's taste. The cast has been selected, arrang ed and directed- with the greatest care, evry part toeing assigned to the one ; most fitted for its interpretation, with Ithe result that a drama of impelling attraction has resulted which charm from beginning to end. The setting I and scenery is particularly effective, j and the action is well sustained throughout, especially in the second ; and third acts which in plot, concep tion and execution is ideal and mar- The drama, to which a slight tinge ' of comedy has been added, that en hances its beauty, is laid In a Ne vada mining camp of the present time, where Clem, Sonnie and B!hy MacChes ney have been orphaned bythe death of their father, a prospector, whose legacy included but a home, the inter est on a- smaH invested sum - of money and an apparently worthless mining claim in the hills. Neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. TJix, own an. adjoining claim, which they are prepared to sell at a sacrifice to a capitalist, Lorimer Trenholm, when a young and hand some prospector, Stephen Townley, a Joint suitor with Louis Beresford, a speculator, for the hand of Kihy, dis covers the claims to toe of immense value. Through the overhearing of its discovery by Clem and his treaoherous aivulgence of the secret to jtreresrora. Maesrie is seriously comwomisea un til reparation, by the brother is made in the closing act. As Hhy MacChesney, Miss Cleveland was again given an opportunity to displav her exceptional powers of dis simulation, srirlish insenousnese, and intense dramatic expression, and in the third and fourth acts she rose to the occasion with undeniable beauty and talent. As Louis Beresford", John Carroll was a revelation of his audience who were treated last night to a display of his powers hitherto withheld. His Inter pretation of the part in scope, diegree and manner of exemplification was ideal and it is hoped that his .art may be given similar opportunities. As Stephen Townley, Harry Ingram was again seen in the principal part and of his powers of portrayal noth ing new may be said. Allen Devitt as Clem, and Margaret Lewis as Maggie, Introduced the com edy and were well cast, although the former was prone to. slight exaggera tion of the Dart auriner the first act. Bertha KrieghonT, as Mrs. Bix, and John Byrnes, as her husband an Eng lish settler, were heartily appreciated, as the parts were unusually adapted to each. Bernard Craney and' Alfred Smith In , minor parts with- - Master Paul Kelley as a juvenile, added ma terialy. to the enjoyment of .the even ing.

At- anv rate he to the pride of his father's heart, and Pale, Sr., invariably refers to the youngster as "regular chip of the old block." The other night little Johnny looked up from his stool by the fireside and ejaculated the query: l m - a chip from the old. block, ain't I father?"
