is willing to leave to the decision Of The ten

had and he well deserves. the sympathy Of the
public in the Illness which has forced him to
abandon his part. 1t has. nevertheless. opened
some eyes and done some service to the cause Of
dramatic criticism In this metropolis; which
stands much in need Of service. He returns to
the stage this week, restored to health. But the
spell is broken. and a spell once broken has lost
its power
Mr.. Henry James's new play, Paul DOM

airy 8. Whether it succeed or fail, 1t will at
least offer wholesome contrast to THE Mas
queraders.' 1t is safe TO say of Mr.. James, that
he will not be vulgar inept nor sacrifice
deccncy and probable to that incessant strain
ing after sensational dramatic effect which is
Mr.. Henry Arthur Jones's habit. Mr.. James
may or may not be dramatic. l sometimes think
he wilfully renounces effects which would be
perfectly legitimate and shrinks back from the
abruptness of treatment which in literature
might seem violent, but which the stage is
so often essential. He has been confessng
something of the sort in the Preface to his
ond volume Of published 'Theatricals." which
Messrs. Osgood and McIlvane have just issued
in London

the intensely summarized fashion demanded by

two hours and half. Is feat Of which the
difficulty looms large to a writer accustomed to
tell his story in another FORM" Precisely. He
did not learn early In life to wear what he calls
the theatrical strait-jacket. More than that
Mr.. James has eschewed even in those novels

lists for the sake of the story. 1t has. to his
mind other work to do He makes adventure
and action, and even the passion Of love. sub
sidiary to a very subtle analysis OF motives and
of character. He is aware that to succeed on the
stage he must adopt another method. lie
knows The stage extremely we'll, but he has not
readily. nor anywhere altogether. shaken off the
influence Of lifetime OF novel-writing, or OF
his marked taste for psychological inquiry.
His new play has, however. been accepted by
a manager who has a keen eye for stage effect
and strong wish for success. coupled with a
shrewd and practical judgment as to the meth
DDS Of achieving II. No London manager sur
passes Mr.. Alexander in these particulars. The
delicate qualities Of Mr. James's literary genius
would not misead him to the dramatic value
of his piece. There is. therefore. high ex-
pectation of success. Mr.. Jamess work would be
welcomed in America. its value seen. its delicacy
and truth appreciated. London is slower in such
matters but she is getting on. G.. w. s.
