II. POLYEUCTE AS ACTED

The foUowing notes were taken at the représentation of Polyeucte at the Comédie Française, June 10, 1906, during the tercentenary célébration of Corneille's birth, Though fragmentary, it is hoped that they may assist teachers and pupils who hâve not seen the play acted to visualize it. The leading parts were cast as follows : Polyeucte, Mounet-Sully (considered by the French their greatest maie tragedian) ; /^///:r, S il vain; Sévère, A. Lambert Fils; Paîdine, M""^ Segond-Weber. (Two weeks previous, Act V of Polyeucte was played in the remains of the Roman theater at Carthage.)
