JULES LEMAITRE's- goMEDY.
| Ths Paris correspondent Of the Londo,
DAILY Telegraph, in speaking OF ''Le De
pute Leveau," the new comedy by julie
Lemaitrey produced recently % the Vaude
vile Theater, says: "Whiie avoiding
personalities, NJ. Lemaitre has described
most wildly and truthfully the extraordi
nary condition between Conservatives anC
Radicals that made Boulangism for Ger
tain time force in the land, and has laiC
bare with a firm and delicate touch the
strange compromises, thanks to which the
most discordant elements were so managed
| as to work together in seeming harmony
1t was feared that lie Depute Leveau
might renew the violent scenes in the
auditorium that marked the first perform

whose political notions were criticised the
most severely were the first to laugh, and
the only interruptions to the performance
were those caused by ripping merriment
and clapping of hands," Whatever the
| literary value of the piece may be, the
story of it is farsfrom attractive. The
hero is a radical politician, who cringes to
the aristocrats whom he affects to despise
and deserts his own wife to carry on an
intrigue with marchioness, who is will.
