The New York Board of Aldermen
adopted at late meeting a resolution
condemning the production on the pub
lie stage of the Passion Play, wherein
the death and sufferings of Christ are
portrayed and call upon the city attorney
to give his opinion as to whether exist
ing laws are sufficient to prevent its ex-
hibition. The traGedian, Edwin Booth,
at whose old theatre the play is to be
brought out, telegrapbs from London a
protest against its production, saying
"the subject is not proper one for the
play house." 1t is shocking to the sense
of civilization to contemplate the sacred
life and sufferirgs of Christ portrayed
by such characters and before such au-
diences as greet the average play actor.
