Seldom does a play reach a ban
Francisco stage with as much advance
praise and attention as has accom
panied Henri Bernsteins drama, "The
Thief.'" all the way from Paris to Lon
don, thence to New York and thence
here. It' is fair to say that we knew
all about "The Thief," except what a
really exquisite piece it was.
In consequence, no. doubt, of judi
cious and extensive advertisement, the
Van Ness theater was crowded last
night. It was the largest first per
formance in» months. Of course the
Rreen curtains were withdrawn and
the entire seating capacity of the bl*
auditorium was thrown open to the
fashionable audience.
The flrst act hardly convinced us that
the . play .was to be entirely up to ex
pectations. The second set dispelled
the last vestige of doubt, and the third
was a triumph no less for the play
than for Margaret Illington, whose tasK
it was to portray the role of the ador
abU thief.
There is no temporizing with sin or
crime in the play; there is no sermon
delivered nor moralizing indulged' m.
The drama works out its own salvatioiv.
free from the least suggestion of pul
pit or preacher; but the inexorable logic
of events, the suffering that follows
sin. and the misery that overtakes
wrongdoers were as obvious as any
well regulated melodrama could make
them — yet presented with the deft art
of the nimble witted Frenchman, whose
work, as given last night, has been
merely translated, not adapted. "The
Tnief." though an unusual play, is a
splendid one. "Would there were more!
Margaret Illinsrton really made her
first bow to us last night; though she
played, only five years ago, small roles
in this city, with Sothern. I think it
was. .But last night she came before us
as an emotional actress with a range of
expressiveness reaching from pretty
coquetry to passionate despair; from
the light caress of love to tragic grief.
And she scaled those heights, her own
person exhibiting in abrupt gesture and
quivering countenance the force of her
sympathy with the role" An ovation
waited for her at the final curtain, and
it is not often, you know, that a Van
Ness audience will «top putting on its
gloves and fine hats long enough to
call an artist back when the show is
over. But so it was last night, and
the star earned it all. including a trib
ute of flowers from John Drew, whose
leading woman Margaret Illington was
last year. It wa? in compliment to her
first appearance In the role of Marie
Voysln outside of New York.
But to the story. The first act dis
closes the Voysins, husband and wife,
at the country home "of their friends,
the- Lagardes. The latter's son, a
youth of 19. falls violently and roman
tically in love with Voysin's pretty
wife. She does not take his protesta
tions seriously and , tells him so. It
also develops that he has been sending
her notes and placing ' them in all
sorts of peculiar places. Systematic
robbery has been going on in the
house «and a detective, who has been
engaged by- Lagardes, accuses the
youth of stealing the money which- his
stepmother has been in the habit of
keeping in a drawer in her room. The
act closes with the admission of the
youth, to save Mrs. Voysin, who he
knows is the guilty one.
The second act witnesses the con
fession of Mrs. Voysin to her husband
and develops the moral. She stole for
love of him. He was vain of her ap
pearance, and their means did not per
mit her the luxuries of dress which
delighted him — so she stole. That is
the pitiful story she tells him, and he
is about to forgive wlien Jealousy en
ters his heart. He believes his wife
has been unfaithful and that she loves
the youth who. was willing' to sacrifice
himself for her. The second act closes
with a scene of tremendous power, in
which Miss Illington, after defending
herself vainly from her husband's ac»
cusations against her chastity, falls a
trembling heap upon the couch.
The last act concerns itself with the
confession of .Mrs. .Voysin to her hosts,
and the reconciliation of herself to her
husband, who magnanimously forgives
her dishonesty, in view of its motives
and the temptations he, himself, had
unwittingly placed before her.
Margaret Illington exhibits a peculiar
variety, of power. It is keen — you
might almost call it angular — but it
Is. incisive. It reaches the heart with
an almost brutal directness. .It is
very compelling. Her lighter scenes
are done with rare charm of panto
mime. Her eyes in the first act told
the. story of her guilt.
Bruce Mcß&e is to be congratulated
on his portrayal of the role of Richard
Voysin. I It was his first appearance In
the difficult part. Subsequent perform
ances will pojish it, no doubt, but the
form and being are -there in big out
line. Leonard^lde played the role of
Fernand, . the romantic youth, simply
and ' cleanly, and the other characters
are in good hands. The piece is a dis
tinct -addition to "our theatrical experi
ences, and Margaret Illington a most
welcome guest In 'our midst.

better last night, and the fine play was
given a splendid scenic production/
Miss Shannon had her chance in
"Alice Sit by the Fire," and- in ."Zaza,"
too. Both plays* are women's, plays.
Last night Kelcey had hls^ opportunity
and made, the very.Riost of it. "As Jack
Frobisher he was splendid and justified
his belief ;, that in this role he has one
of the best mediums of his s stage ca r
reer. ; He la a millionaire just returned'
from ' Queensland, .- and he jumps into

to attribute to English aristocracyr She
is vain, coquettish;': and plays ; with fire
as all : her companions do. , Frobisher
in ' such society is , like a mountaineer
at a royal' reception, and the plot grows
out 'of his attempts :to shake himself
free from' the entanglements of London
society and to -make^ his '-'wife see " the

\u25a0'The "winner of TbeCall's contest,* T.. ' C. \u25a0 Ward
of 'Petaluma,' took delivery of the -Wlnton Slx-

\u25a0Winton 'motor 'carriage company. v Accompanied
by a party of friends. Ward drove his car over
land to his home '?<< sterday.' '.
For the firet time in tbe history of the- GUdden
tonr .Franklin cars will" be numbered among the
entries. Entries for three Franklin tonring can
and a Franklin runabout have Just been received.
The reason heretofore given was" that tbe GUdden
affair was more of a tour than a reliability con
test, and allowed 'less alile cars to qualify with
th* more worthy, competitors. This is. : however,
not true of tbe com his event, which,, on account
of the strict - penalization, is more severe, and
proves better the points claimed by the- entrants.
Tbe fact that the Franklin is an ale cooled car
and that this team. probably will be the only one
consisting, entirely of air cooled cars gives dis
tinction to this entry, which is made by tbe Au
tomobile club of Syracuse. .
Tire treads : are . deceptive in more than one
wtoy,' according to G. >\u25a0\u25a0 B. > Johnson of Uje local
branch of, the Flsk company. . "One tread may be
thicker and^yet not heavier than another.'.' be
says, "because of the -ingredients, in, lt. Treads
are of composition material, and In gome quite
a quantity of - mineral Ingredient such as, white
lead Is used. This weighs more. than rubber, and
so a tread of that sort mfght be heavier, bnt not
so thick, and yet not wear -as well as a tread
less solid, for it is another deceptive point that a
tread of tbe heavy, car type may be more spongy
than some other, become more rubbery and wear
more roughly, looking feathery all the time and
wearing longer than a harder tread."
