The forthcomin appearance of “GI“.
bert Kelsey and the Shannon lu W1l
llnm Gillette 11 Stage version of Conan
Doyle a famous detective stories “Sher-
lock Holmes." Is an event of more than
passing notice in local theatr.iculs It
will mark one of the most lmpc1taut
engagements to be played here this
season and as such, is attracting wide
lpxoad attention. The engagement
takes place at lioyt's Theatre Tuesday,
May ii. As artists Kelcey and Shan-
non stand at the very head of their p10
fosslon and have occupied an enviable
position among stars for some time.
This standing ihey have maintained by
upholding the high standard they have
assiduously horns and their appear»
anccs everywhere are acclaimed by
those who admire the highest attrib-
utes in dramatic art. "'Sherlock
Holmes" has enjoyed the distinction
of having been played continuously for
ten months at the Lyceum Theatre.
London. and for over three hundred
nights at the Garrick Theatre. New
York. and will be presented here with
the original London and New York sce-
nic and electrical surroundings. “Sher-
lock Holmes‘s" triumph as a play has
surpassed his popularity on :the book
shelf and in the circulating library.
The value that Conan Doyle lent to his
detective stories was the charm of hu-
mor. The typical detective of fiction
always lacked ibis characteristic.
“Vidocq.” "Monsieur Lecocq." and
Hawkshaw" are all solemn as owls
"Sherlock Holmes.” however. has a
keen sense of the humorous side of
things and never takes himself too ser-
iously. Like the heroes in the recent
revival of the romantic drama that now
prevails. “Sherlock Holmes” is 11. im-
morist as well as a here. That. possi-
bly, has much bearing on his lasting
popularity,
MILDRED HOLLAND'S VICTORY.
Mildred Holland. as Angela, in her
new play. The Lily and the Prince.
scored another victory. at lioyt's Thea-
trc, last night. Miss Holland display-
ed the some wonderful dramatic power
that has won laurels for her in every
thing she has attempted. and held her
audience from the first rise of the cur—
tain. in the third act, at the over-
throwal of the council chamber. by the
Pope. Miss Holland was simply superb,
and was obliged to respond to five cur-
tain calls before the applause abated.
Miss Holland was afforded excellent
support by her usual strong company.
especially by Lillian Norris. as the
Duchess. Edwin G. Cadwcll. as Silvio
D'Orslui. Robert Conuees, as the Prince
of Colonna and Samuel Lewis. as Count
(II Savelli. father of Angela. Miss Hol-
land is preparing to star in another
romantic drama entitled, The Triumph
of an Empress, in the near future. slid
will no doubt meet with her usual suc-
