WARDE AND JAMES FAVORITES.
[wpptrf*Falstaff and Prfne* Ha
Ably Prwentfd A '\u25a0harUifCup for Mr. W»rd«.
The culture, beauty ar.d wealth of thiscity greeted Frederick Warde and LouisJames at the Seattle theater last even-ing in their representation of "Henry
IV." Before the curtain arose on theopening scene one of the largest audi-ence* ever gathered in this city had beenseated. and waited expectantly for theplay to proceed. The expectations of theaudience were not disappointed, and therevival of tbe (treat drama eclipsed anyperformance that has been given at thetheater since Keene's "Louis XI." Theaudience welcomed the performers warm-
ly. and became exceedingly demonstrativeas the play progressed. the enthusiasmreaching Its culmination at the close ofthe third act, when Mr. Warde was pre-sented with an elegant shaving mug ofsolid silver, the gift of the Elks of Seat-tle. Even the scenery provoked applause,
the moonlight srenf on the road to Lon-don near by Oadahlll seemin* a favorite.
The entrance of Mr. Warde as PrinceHal and Mr. Jwrnej. as Sir John Fa'.vafTIn the ee<-ond scene of the firs* art show-ed that those favorites held as of oi l theirplaces In the hearts of the tbeater-goers
of the city. They at once reasserted theirtitle to the public esteem by rendering
in a manner above criticism the jocular«ur«tnA«r between the'mad-cap prince
and the acute-jninded. voracious consum-er of sack. Mr. Warde retains the easygrace and finish that have won for himhb» place on the stajje. A* the ha-ppy-jfo-lucky heir apjarervt he was naturalnessitself, and he fitted into the character asIf he had been born for it. His changefrom tbe frivolity of a courtly highway-man to the seriousness of a prince whoIs soon to ascend the throne was wellmarked in the lines where he anticipatesthe future and resolves to become asthoughtful as he had been eareiese.
Mr. James was a big. fat Faistaff, andgarve an almost irv»:imparable delineationof the hearty, cowanfiy companion of theprince. His magngWnt was not
lost in the efT>r>rt to display the glutton'scharacteristic, but on the contrary wasespecially no'ticeable in the lower tones.
In «iaan«<r he caught the house from theInstant his bulky form appeared in thedoorway <*f the Boar's H»ad tavern, andled his auditors in convulsions through
?the entire performance. Especially <«f-and convulsing was his manner
in where Faistaff, confrontedby the story of Hal as to haw\u25a0the i*#(!iers were rai»l»ed, ex Lalms, "Bythe Lord, I knew ye." Here he standsffor several moments as If ar«haimed. hish it drawn beCoae his fa e, and ciiahis poslti<Mi only after one eye hasPrgulshiy crept ov<* a corner to explorewhat the prince is doing.
Of the other characters, Guy IJndsleymade an excellent Harry Percy, and de-livered Hotspur s speech before the kinsIn a way that secured him a round ofapplause. His scene with Lady Percy,Which was rendered by Miss Edith Chap-
man, was one of the most artistic of theevening. Beverly Turner assumed therole of-Henry IV. and Poins was given
by Harry Barton. A great deal was madeout of the part of Francis, a drawer, byEdwin Tanner. Elizabeth Bouton andMiss Ever«tt respectively asJohn of Lancasf»r and Dame Quicklyof the Boar's Head. Sir Walter Bluntwas rendered by Ernest Warde.
A surprise of the evening was thepresentation of the shaving mug and bou-quet to Mr. Warde. The presentationspeech was made on behalf of the Elksby R. Finlay Stewart, city clerk, whosaid:
eiplaJrwjd that the president of th<- asso-ciation. Adlal E Steven sou. rlee-presi-
den: of the Ffilted Htates, was In thehabit of rvceivinir Offi a nson'h In pay-nrnt for his services as attorney. Healso spok* of the alleged methodsemployed In Issuing shares of stock. Th«total amount alleged to have been Ille-gally paid out by the association duringits existence is said to be tlffiuft). Hisresolution recites many Instances of ai-leged violations of the statutes in makingloans, etc.
ti clt.a further that H. C. Bunn, sonOP* T. J. Dunn, secretary of the associa-tion, Is agent In Obioafo, and as «\H?hhas obtained from hi* father large sumsof the atocknolders* money which he hasloaned on worthless securities because bymo doing be got extort mate commissions,
and mfseed to pay borrowers large sumsof this money when the same became dueand payable, and allowed 11<'as to be tiledagainst borrowers' premises, so he couldbuy them up at small percentage*, andthat be constantly r»-fus«d to make loansbecause applicants refused extortionate
demands made upon them for lsrg>- com-iirtssiofjs, by which means he has sunkand squandered thousands of dollars of!h<- stockholders' money. It cites furtherthat toe officers of the aaso- wation. forthe purpose of <!-<eivtng stockholders,
had never lasued to them a report of itstrue condition, but continue unlasrfully to
use and appropriate the stockholders'money to their individual benefits.
8* retary T. J. Bunn. who was pres-ent, was invited to make a statement.He admitted that the statements r /aid-ing mojjey paid \ke I*resid?-UStevenson and i»is law partoer,Mr. Ewsng, were true. The asso-
ciation. he said, was solvent to «heextent Of over He Justified 4hepayment of the money to Vice PresidentStevenson and ills partner by a clause inthe association's dsirter permitting theassociation to employ any one n«-eded tojperform whatever was In its Interests.The committee voted to adopt the r»r<>lu-tion with the insolvent statement strickvuout,.
