- The Oresnist.S -

A one-act piece by Mr. Henry Arthur
Jones. called The Organist," was recently
played fer the first time at the Lyceum,
New York. The dramatic significance of
the play lies in the characterization OF an
old blind man who is deprived Of his place
as organist in the village church because of
his habits OF drunkenness. The new or
ganist loves the old mans daughter. and in
order TO win her secures the fathers rein
statement while the blind man, moved by
his love Tor his daughter ana his greater
love for his organ, forswearS his evil habit.
According to the Tribune, the play has no
Sueh depth OIL moral purpose as some of
MI j nes other compositions; il Is q
simpler and lighter theme for a more mod
est use. with his instructive skill in the
treatment Of his subject. the writer has
made FIRST dramatic composition and has
then let II teach It's lesson. never allowing
the purpose OF instruction TO become OBJ
vlOus as an end. The important part
in the play was acted by w. J. LIE
MOyne who made it,, as would be ex-
pected. piece Of finished and effective
art. lie had two moments that were espe-
eally hne One Of them was when he
brought into the most striking juxtapostion
the violence of his resentment against the
young man who had, as he conceived,
stolen his place with the helplessness Of a
man Mt once old, blind and weakened by
drink; the other was the moment Of the
struggle between his child and his organ on
the one side and the demon in his glass of
brandy on the other.
