Miss "Virginia Howell" was selected
hy ('laud Krhmger, a year ago, as the
leading woman of his eollossal pro
duction "|ieu llur" and tlie progress
of the play t hroiiuhout the country
has been one of unbroken dramatic
and tiuancial success. At 'he time of
its production in 1'oluiuhia a few
months ago, the demand .for seats ex
Ionised the capacity of the house a
week before the appearance of the
company.. , Many Florentines wept
over for the great play aud tlie artis
tic triumph of Miss Howell, was id
most overwhelmingly gratifying to
the folk of her old town.
The following, taken from a metro
politan paper, gives a pleasing picture
of the lieautlfnl and charming star :
"Virginia Howell, who is enacting
the role of the lOgyptiau Enchantress
Iras, in "Hen Hur" this season, la one
of the most Interesting women on the
stage today. Iilesxed hy nature with
beauty of form und feature, and en<
(lowed by birth with dramatic ability
Miss Howell has achieved a high
place in the .world of the theatre.
Her dark beauty, rich Coloring and
Hashing eyes ? t*e enhanced hy a. slight
ly retrousse nose that gives piquancy
to her facoand adds a coquettish fin
ish to her imiierKonation of the siren
of old Egypt.
"Since the first production of "lien
Hur" fourteen years ago, many prom
inent actresses have ai>l>car**l in, the
role of Iras. Notafvly Corona Klcardo,
Annie Irish, Eleanor Moretti, Sylyia
Ly Udell, Dorothy Itossuiore and (Con
stance Collier. Miss Howell's i>er
formance Is credited with being the
cleverest interpretation ever given
the character, and in recognition Klaw
& Erlanger are arranging to feature
the young lady next season in La Tos
ca, (Jismonda and Fedora, a rejiertoire
of plays that successfully served the
late Fanny Davenport.
