Steele Mackaye's conception of dramatic
picture to present for the contemplation OF
the public mind was a master stroke when
IL eliminated in the production of Paul
Kauvar" No epoch i'll the history of that
great republic affords such an eventfui time
as the incidents of the French Revolution;
TO dramatize truly the scenes OF Dloou ana
carnage character and plot, ablaZe Win
anarchy and brute strife, which make up
the history of those momenous DAYS
would shock the sense OF ordinary Amer
cans. Yet Paul Kauvar' is grahd!y ana
even intensely realistic OF the trench con
tention. Nothing seems mplobaDle when
viewed through the possibilities OF that time;
and therefore the display of character ana
scene so charged with the types or the great
French tragedy does not. seem aonorMal.
But for the sad source from which thls
drama comes the play of ''PaIi AauVar

all reason. 1t ranks, however, with

siderable fame, and his "Shaun Rhue'
has melted many audiences during this
charming actors career. John Murphy,
while apparently not possessed OF as nne
voice as his brother, Is nevertheless quIte as
good an actor and unless one is personally
acquainted with both gentlemen ana views
them critically he cannot distinguish the
work of one from the other.
The support is hardly as good as that
which has followed Joseph Murphy espe-
cially in the person of Miss Fallon, who
lacks the confidence and spirit SO necessary
to the character she assumes. The member
of Mr.. Murphy's support who is most worthy
of eulogy is Miss Libby Kirke. who as Alice
DOYLE, is nonpareil in Irish peasant char

of her part and is bold and ingenious IN her
