LYDIA THOIIPSON GONE. Long-Tirae Footlight Favorite Is Numbered With Dead. London, Nov. 18. A long-ago foot light favorite k departed this life. Lydla Thompson,7 perhaps the most famous burlesque actress of her time, died suddenly at her home In West minster mansions, near Westminster abbey, London. The news was sent to New York in a cablegram to her daughter, Zeffle Tilbury, herself an actress, who Is the wife of L. R Woodthorp, stage manager for Nat Goodwin. Probably no ether woman of the En glish stage, either in the Berious or frivolous phases of the drama, excited such a furore in the United States as did Lydla Thompson when she first came here in 1868. Her reputation had preceded her,' however, for she already had made a triumphal tour of the chief capitals of Europe. : Bora Feb. 19, 1836, she first earned a repu tation as a dancer in fairy spectacles and burlesque as far bkek as 1S52 at Iter Majesty's theater. London. The following year she began her dramatic career in pantonine at the Haymarket theater and la 1856 she toured Europe, where she won such favor that In many cities she was sere naded and escorted by torchlight pa rades. , Her success In this country may be Indicated by the fact that when she was at Cincinnati, even the bootblacks subscribed their dimes to present a silver wreath to her. Although the name in America has been largely Identified with "The Black Crook," the fact Is that extravaganza was pro duced in America two years before her first visit. With her on that Visit came Ada Harland, afterward the wife of Professor Brander Matthews; Pau line Markham, Liza Weber, Alexander Henderson, the manager who after ward married Miss Thompson, and Harry Peckett, actor and mudical di rector. Besides those already name! there were several Americans In the cast, among them Grace Lowdeon and Sol Smith Russell. The women of the company were dubbed "The British Blondes," be cause they all wore blonde wigs, and that name stuck to them. After three years speat In America Miss Thompson went back to England to procure new costumes. On her re timi here she brought with her Rose Coghlan and Eliza Wethersby, after ward the wife of Nat Goodwin. In all Miss Thompson made four visits to this country. She estimated that she earned fully $500,01)0 oa her American tours,' but she often said that she only received about $50,000 being robbed of the rest by persons whom she trusted.
