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.
