Smedley. 619 Massachuette St., Opposite Pierson's Mill Robert Downing's Successful Appearance as Spartacus, the Gladiator. The Century and Scribner for May at J. D. Smith's News Depot. Tuesday, May 22nd., Robert Downing will give "The Gladiator" at the Opera House. This was McCullough's great play, and in Downing it has found its second great interpreter. The following criticism taken from Tuesday's Kansas City Times (Downing has been at the Gillis all this week) speaks for itself: "It has been many a day since a Kansas City audience has shown such enthusiasm as was manifested by the large audience that greeted Robert L. Downing at the Gillis last night on his first appearance in this city as a star. Probably not since the days of Forrest has there been an American actor so eminently endowed by nature for the character of Spartacus. In both physical and vocal qualifications there is little to desire to make Mr. Downing's Spartacus an ideal one. Mr. Downing was repeatedly called before the curtain at the end of each act after the first. Mr. Mack has spared no pains to give this play every advantage of handsome scenery and well-nigh perfect stage appointments. Several of the scenes are really gorgeous while the armors and costumes are rich and historically correct." Leslie's Popular Monthly, the North American Review and the Form at J. D. Smith's.
