A. NJ Palmer's Company in "Jm, the
Penman,' which comes to us shortly, is said
to be new departure in English play writ
ing, and marks what one sincerely hopes
will be a period of high artistic production
among English dramatists. 1t is now some
years since restraint and naturalness were
demanded in the art of acting; but the play
wrights were behind in progress and pre-
served the old stilted language and the
forced situation which belongs to the era
of artifcaity. Here at last is play which
is melo-dramatc in essence, although
clothed in the habiliments of high comedy;
it is written language of every day use,
which is yet so handled as to be pointed
and effective; it depends for its power not
upon the work of the carpenter or scenic
artist, and it holds the interest by the in
genious development of the plot and with
no appeal to the morbid curiosity which is
satisfied by the revelation of moral or
material slums. Take Wilkie Collins skill
in telling a story of mystery, and suppose it
fore his minds eye the quality of talent dis
played by Sir Charles Young in this great
work
Floy Crowell again delighted large audi
ence at Granite hall, Saturday evening, in
the Hoop of Gold" The play is well
adapted to the actress, giving opportunity for
many striking situations. Its plot however,
is far from original. and but little attention
is given to the working out of details. Mr..
Dudley as Scotty, and Arthur Livingstone as
Dr. Hartland, gave Miss Crowell good sup
port Adelman as Wrench, was passable,
and Miss Ay liner as Lizzie Lovegrove, de-
cidedly amateurish. The acting of the hero
inc, when alone with her jealous husband,
was particularly excellent

Telegraphing Made Easy.

The new electric typewriter relieves
the operator of every duty except
pressing down the keys. The car
riage moves automatically to the start
ing point whenever the end of line
has been reached, and also moves up
one notch or line at the same time.
But the most important office of the
new instrument seems to be its use in
receiving and transmitting telegraph
ic dispatches. 1t is said at the patent
office that the instrument can be used
both as transmitter and receiver of
intelligence over single wire, no
matter how great the distance may
be. The receiving instrument does
not require the attendance of an OPP
orator, but prints the dispatch auto
matically. The instruments at both
ends of the line print the dispatch
sent, and 80 safe guard against mis-
takes are provided. 1t is claimed
that the electric typewriter will be
valuable as local aid to business,
and offers many advantages over the
telephone. One advantage claimed
for it is that no matter whether per-
son called up is at his place of bust
ness or not, the message can be print
ed through the medium of the type
writer, and will be there for perusal
on his return. The dispatches print
ed are in letter form and not an end
less tape. The instrument has been
christened the dynamograph.
