Mrs. Langtry i'm "a House of Cards..
Philadelphia Inquirer.
Mrs Langtry and her company appeared
at the Walnut-street Theater in an adapta-
ton of Sardous play La Maison Neuve,"
made by Sydney Grundy, and entitled "A
House of Cards" 1t is more than likely
that the Sardou original in passing through
the alembic of the Grundy mind, ard in
being conformed to the supposed idiosyn-
crasies of the English-spedking audience,
has been deprived of much of its original
strength and SAVIOR, but after making
all due allowance for tn. effects of the
sterilizing process to which it was subject
ed, 1t is impossible to imagine the MASON
Neuve'' to be anything else than an esrly
effort or a belated pot-boiler. 1t is not
only that the drama is verbose and slow to
develop, AFTER the approved Sardou fash
ion but that it is all so obvious and ee-
mentary. The end can quite clearly be fore
seen from the beginning, and there is very
little in the construction Of the plot or the
conduct OF the intrigue that is at all out
uation is that in which the villain OF the
piece, the would-be lover Of the frivolous
wire upon whose foolish ambition the action
turns, is represented pressing his suit at
the witching hour of night in condition
OF incipient intoxication; and as to the eff
fectivenes OF this scene there is ample room
for doubt. Last night the audience did
not seem to know for sure how 70 ,ake it,
which is not surprising, FOR the actors
themselves appeared to be almost equally
at a loss. However, the simple story of
the play Is fairly interesting, ITS sentiment
is wholesome, it's moral sound and its con-
clusion satisfactory, that upon the whole
