Rose Coghlan

Miss Coghlan and her great com pany wiil appear at the Grand op era house on Wednesday, April 3 It is hardly necessary at this time when she is at the very height o: her popularity, and in the fulnesso her powers to enter into a detailee discussion of her work, in a rol which is familiarto all theatre-goers and one in which she has won the hearty approval of the most critical but it may be said as a matter of record that she has never acted with finer artistic effect than as the Countess Zicka in "Diplomacy." Miss Coghlan is supported by a very fine company. It numbers many of the foremost actors in this country. John T. Sullivan has been Miss Coghlan's leading man fora number of seasons; Henry Jewett supported Julia Marlowe lastseason, playing opposile parts to her; Courtenay was the leading man for Rosina Vokes for the many seasons she toured this country. This makes a fine trio of leading men. Charles Coote is a comedian who has been identified with many of the great success in America. Brenton Thorpe, Franklyn Roberts and Edwin James are other male members of the organization. Of the ladies, Miss Hattie Russell comes first. She is the sister of the world re nowned Ada Relian and she' has other sister on the stage who is the wife of Oliver Dowd Byron. Beatrice Moreland is a leading lady of much capability. Lotta Lynne, a new corner, has distinguished herself this season as "Dora" in "Diplomacy." Fanny Denham Rouse is one of the old stagers and as fine a character actress as was ever seen on the boards. Gertrude Elsmere and Mina Jerome complete the list of ladies. Sight must not be lost of the fact that Miss Coghlan wears in all of her plays many fine dresses, and those she will don in this productiou are magnificent.
