KEEP NEWS FROM MRS. RUSH
Family Fear Shock of Daughter's Death Would Prove Fatal.
Special to the New York Times.
WILKESBARRE, Penn., Jan. 31.
"The aged mother of Isadore Rush, the actress, has not yet been informed of the death of her daughter, who died while surf bathing in California three months ago, owing to fears of the family that the news would cause the mother's death. She has been informed that her daughter could not come East, because her theatrical company was booked for a long tour of the West, and each week a letter is read to her which she believes comes from Miss Rush, who during all her theatrical career wrote to her mother each week."
"ISADORE RUSH One of the most popular and successful young actresses of the country is undoubtedly Miss Isadore Rush the subject of this sketch. She is the daughter of a well known and highly respected family of Wilkes Barre Penn in which city Isadore was born. After receiving a first class education she made her first professional debut at the Boston Museum when twenty years of age with Mr Roland Reed in The Woman Hater. She remained with Mr Reed's company continually since her debut until November 1900, when his health failed and compelled him to retire from the stage. During her engagement in Mr Reed's company she has appeared in all his plays since the Woman Hater, Lend me your Wife, The Club Friend, Innocent as a Lamb, The Politician, and The Wrong Mr Wright being a few of the more prominent ones. Miss Rush is at present with the Rogers Brothers in their comedy In Central Park which is under the management of Klaw & Erlanger. Her work with this company is on an entirely new line but her success has been equally as great as it had previously been while with Mr Reed. Her beauty and vivacity are most valuable aids to her art which is thoroughly trained and her success as a drawing attraction increases with each season." The Players Blue Book (1901), edited by A. D. Storms, page 156.
