Miss Lillian Rusttll.
JLlllinn RuNsell Is clever. There Is
n«» getting around that. So clever^
that she surprised half her audience by
the charm of hef acting and the other
half by the marvelous way she re
tains her good looks. Surely the blonde
prlnceiss. ha* found old Ponce De
Leon's spring of perennial youth.
'The Butterfly" Is a three-act com
edy by KelletL Chambers, and It gives
MJas Ruaaeli the Deal DQ**it»lC nppor
tunlty. The story Is that of a young
widow who marries a stranger, to part
at once and sue for divorce In order
that she may marry a title and dodge
her first husband's will. Of course she
falls In love with her makeshift hux
band—that was Inevitable—and the
earl goes away to marry a girl from
Pittsburg. If the comedy did not dwell
so strongly on the question as to wheth.
er the husband and wife occupied the
same room It would be greatly Im
proved In tone. That Is *he one objec
tionable feature.
Miss Russell is as pretty to look upon
as In the years gone by, even though
her figure Is not so willowy, her step so
light. Her acting Is spontaneous, her
good humor Irresistible. It was only
In her curtpln call, when she respond
ed by singing two numbers, that she
was disappointing. Miss Russell'*
voice has not stood the test of time
> well as her face and manner.
The supporting company ^excellent.
Fred L. Tlden, as the earl, Is perhaps
the best of the cast. Ills stage Eng

In 'The Ninety and Nine" at ths

Is ^haring honors with those who have
been given leading and more prominent
roles. This young man Is callad upon
to portray one of the moat difficult
roles possible to assign an actor, tir.d

hits of musics I satire ever presented.
Ith Johnny and Emma Ray In the
