suiparsed himself last night in the admi
ration of the people, and in “ifing Lear”
1 gave them the best of all.
In the splendid equipment of heart and
brain that lies in his touching spectacle
of a regal mind and a noble heart jarred
and crushed by filial ingiatitude, he rises
to heights that bewilder even one who
, has long been a sincere admirer of the
good he has done for the drama of our
speech. There is not a shade in the- pa
thetic, majestic coloring of his Lerr that
is overdone. His embodiment, from the
first, is that of a grand old man whose
loving heart has outlived the keen dis
cernment of his mind, his very bearing
t ouched with a melancholy prescience of
the sorrow to come.
In the curse bis righteous wrath is
terrible, appalling; and, permeating
all the harsh invective, is the lamenta
ble sob of a broken heart. In the
storm scene the shifting vagaries of a
mind out of tune amidst the weird
splendor of the elements made the
scene so vivid, so pathetically heart
felt, that one realized an absolute ex
perience of grief in witnessing it
Frederick Warde has achieved a great
character, a character that will have
its niche in dramatic history. And
Lear, broken, pillaged of all the love
and veneration of those to whom he
gave his all, totters once again before
us in his crown and sword of straw 1
yet he is every inch a King.
Os the support grand old Kent and
the good Gloucester were necessarily
favorites with the audience. Mr-
Chas. W. Sutton as Edgar was most
excellent, and Mr. Danel, Vinton as
Edmund showed that he possessed
much ability. Mr. Thos. A. Smith
and Mr. Harry C. Barton were also
good, and indeed the same might
justly be said of the entire cast.
Miss Marcia Tredawcll, a very pretty
Memphis girl, well filled the part of
Regan, and the same should be said of Miss
Wilburham, as Cordelia, and Miss Villiers
as Gonenl.
Mr. Warde never gave a better produc
tion, and it is his best in Rome. The
audience was not near what it should have
been in size, but seldom has the opera
house held a more enthusiastic one.

HURT BY A TRAIN
A Wdl Known Clliz n ol Give Spring
I jmed ' '
HE FELL UNDER A FREIGHT CAR
And Hi 3 Left Aim Was Badly Crashed find
L -edrated—Carried to
His Home,
Mr. S. W. Pett’s. a well-known citi.
zen of Cave Sping, was badly buj-t,
early yesterday morning in East
Rome.
He tried to catch and mount a
moving freight car and was thrown
to the ground. His left arm was caught
by the wheels and terribly lacerated,
the flesh being torn back from the
wrist to the elbow. Strange to say,
no bones were broken, but the injury,
as it is, is a serious one, and even if
the arm is saved it will probably be
stiff.
Mr. Pettis is well known here in
Rome and has many friends. He is a
Knight Templar.
For a long time he has been a con
ductor on the Southern railway, run
ning on the South end of the Alabama
division. Six months ago he secured
a leave of absence for six months, and
has been spending tho time at his
Cave Spring home.' Wednesday, he
came up to Rome, and he intended
taking the train for Atlanta at 3:40
yesterday morning. Just after 3 o’clock
he was near the round house when
the switch engine with several cars
attached came from the freight depot
in Rome. Mr. Pettis caught at the car
next the engine, as i,t passed him, with
the intention of riding t > the passen
ger depot. His foot caught and he was
thrown to the ground, the left arm
passing under the wheels.
He was carried to Dr. Garlington’s
office where the wound was skillfully
dressecl. While the doctor thinKs the
arm will be saved, its use may be per
manently impaired.
Mr. ' Pettis’ Rome friends give him
every attention. lie was carried to h s
home in Cave Spring yesterday morning.

“LEAK” AT TWENTY-ONE.
A Good Story Told by Young Arthur
Warde.
The enterprise of the Western the
atrical manager is pretty well exem
plified in the following story related
by Arthur F. Warde, the manager of
the distinguished tragedian, Fred
erick Warde.
Mr. Warde reached a small town in
Montana where the local manager had
such faith in the drawing power of the
elder Warde and the loyalty of his
people to the legitimate drama, that
he gave up a large sized guarantee
for a single performance of “ King
Lear.” When the younger Warde
arrived he called on the manager of
the theatre with a view to arranging
all of the preliminaries incident to the
engagement, and after depositing the
scenes and property, plots, house
program copy and a liberal supply of
advance notices for the production,
he was in the act of bidding the local
manager good afternoon for the sake
of catching a train and making the
next stand. “ Hold on,” said the im
pressario, “you forgot to leave me
some newspaper cuts of Warde as
‘ King Lear.’ ” “ The fact is,” re
plied Mr. Warde, “I haven’t any en
gravings of my father in that charac
ter. The only thing in the way of a
cut that I have is Rinaldo in the
Lion’s Mouth, and as that is a picture
of a youth of 21, it would hardly do to
run it and call it ‘"King Lear,’ whom
everybody knows to baa grizzled old
veteran of 80. ”
“Well, you just leave me what you
got and I’ll fix it all right,” said the
other, “and to prove that I will
watch for a copy of the paper print
ing it, which I will send you.” .
Sure enough, when Mr. Warde
reached Denver a few days later, he
found) a newspaper among the mail
awaiting him at t e office of the
theatre and in the theatrical column
was the picture which he left with
the Montana manager, with this
unders anding: “King Lear at 21.”
