ELLEN TERRY’S JUBILEE
E IN L
PRETTV SCENE AT HIS MAJESTY’S THEATRE
LAST NIGHT—GREAT OVATION.
31 INDICTMENTS
AGAINST THIS MAN.
Chicago Grand Jury Hot After Former
Circuit Court Clerk.
Chicago, April 28.—The grand jury
today returned thirty-one Indictments
against John A. Cooke, former clerk of
the circuit court. The charges em
brace forgery, conspiracy, embezzle
ment of public moneys and withhold
ing public records.
London, April 28.—At the perform
ance at His Majesty’s theatre last
night, at which Ellen Terry had a re
markable reception, recalling the fare
well benefit to Nelly Warren, a pret
ty scene had been arranged for the
presentation of the Playgoers Club’s
silver cakset and an address In com
memoration of the actresses jubilee.
The ceremony closed with a scene of
Indescribable enthusiasm.
The demand for seats was remark
able, the crowd gathering early, the
line lengthening until the Hay Market
resembled a huge picnic.
Ellen Terry’s Jubilee.
Seldom If ever before In the annals
of the British stage has a higher trib
ute been paid to an actress than that
received from press and public this
week by Miss Ellen Terry on the occa
sion of the golden jubilee anniversary
of her professional debut. It was just
fifty years ago, on April 28, 1856, that
Miss Terry made her first appearance
at the Princess theatre, unjler the
management of Charles Kean. The
play was “A Winter’s Tale," and Miss
Terry had the part of the boy "Mamll-
ltus.” Queen Victoria was in the au
dience, and especially commended the
acting of "the beautiful youth."
Nearly all the leading journals of
London took occasion today to print
eulogies of Miss Terry in their col
umns, while the Saturday reviews all
contain pictorial write-ups of the fa
mous actress and her career. The
most eminent members of the theatri
cal profession in the United Kingdom,
together with Charles Frohman and
other foremost representatives of the
stage in America, have joined In the
arrangements for the jubilee perform
ance at the Court theatre tonight In
honor of Miss Terry. "The Merry
Wives of Windsor" is the play se
lected. Miss Terry will act Mistress
Page, and Mr. Beerbohm Tree, -Fal-
staff. Tomorrow evening admiring
Londoners will give Miss Terry a din
ner and the occasion will probably be
taken to present her with the testi
monial fund raised by popular sub
scription.
King Edward and Queen Alexandra
were among those sending their con
gratulations and good wishes to Miss
Terry today. Other felicitous mes
sages of greeting poured in by cable,
post and special messenger from fa
mous people the world over, among
them the leading players of America
and Europe.
Miss Terry at present is enjoying
good health and stated today that she
had no Intention to leave the stage
and none to revisit America, though
her previous visits on the other side
of the Atlantic are among her fondest
recollections.
For a quarter of a century Miss
Terry has been regarded as one of the
renowned actresses of the day. Her
fame was won chiefly while she was
the acting partjner of the late Sir
Henry Irving. She was born Feb. 27,
1848, and was christened Ellen Alice.
She was but 8 years of age when she
first appeared on the stage. Later she
appeared with a company in which
were the present Mrs. Kendal and
Henrietta Hodgson, now the wife of
Henry Labouchere, the famous editor
of Truth. Her first appearance with
Irving was as Katherine in "The Tam
ing of the Shrew.” Miss Terry's first
husband was G. F. Watts, the re
nowned painter, who died in 1504, but
after ten years ten years the marriage
was dissolved. Her second husband;
Mr. Wardell, whose stage name was
Charles Kelly, died in 1885.
