MARLOWE, JULIA [SARAH FRANCES FROST] (1866— ), American actress, was born near Keswick, England, on Aug. 17, 1866, and arrived with her family in America in 1875. Her first formal appearance on the stage was in New York in 5887, although she had before that travelled with a juvenile opera company in H.M.S. Pinafore, and afterwards was given such parts as Maria in Twelfth Night in Miss Josephine Riley's travelling company. Her first great success was as Parthenia in Ingmar, and her subsequent presentations of Rosalind, Viola and Julia in The Hunchback confirmed her position as a "star." In 1894 she mar ried Robert Taber, an actor, with whom she played until their divorce in 1900. Subsequently, she had great success as Barbara Frietchie in Clyde Fitch's play of that name, and other dramas. For many years, beginning in 1904, she acted with E. H. Sothern —to whom she was married, Aug. 17, 1911—in a notable series
of Shakespeare plays, as well as in modern drama.
a village of northern France in the de partment of Seine-et-Oise, 5 m. N. by W. of Versailles by road. Pop. (1931) 2,004. Marly-le-Roi owes its celebrity to the Château built towards the end of the 17th century by Louis XIV., and now destroyed. The remains now consist of a large basin, the park and the small forest containing the shooting preserves of the President of the Republic. Near Marly-le-Roi is the hamlet of Marly-la-Machine, where, in 1684, an immense hydraulic engine, driven by the current of the river, was erected ; it raised the water to a high tower, where the aqueduct of Marly began ( 700 yds. in length, 75 in height, with 36 arches) carrying the waters of the Seine to Versailles.
