Lewis Morrison's conception of the part of Mephisto in the dramatised version of Goethe‘s "Faust" has been conceded to be the best xpositlon of Satanic subtlety and tonic power over presented on the stage. Sir Hen- ry Irvinga Shyiock ls acknowledged as the standard of the subtlest and finest exposition of Hebraism extant. Lewis Morrison‘s Satan holds equal rank at home and abroad for his demonstra- tion of the attributes popularly believ- ed to belong to that malevolent crea- tion of Goethe. Mephistopbeies. The appearance of Lewis Morrison himself at Hoyt’s Theatre on Tuesday, Decem- ber 17. with a splendid array of new scenery, startling electrical effects and a. strong supporting company. will be welcomed by many who have previous- ly seen and can testify to the brillian- cy of this well-known star. The splen- dor of this season's new production will bear comparison with that of Irv- ing's for scenic beauty and in one re~ apect far surpasses‘thai famous pro- duction—the electrical effects. Our British cousins are slow to absorb American Ideas and as a consequence many of the first-class theatres of Great Britain are nearly so well equip ped electrically as those of Uncle Samuel‘s theatres in cities of much less population.
