RIP VAN WlNkLE..

Jefferson Discovers Something Incongru.
Gus About His Celebrated Play.
joe jefferson calls attention to an in.
teresting fact regarding Kip Van Win
kle., He says: .>
''There is che incongruity in Rip Van
Wrinkle which is seldom criticised.
Possibly none Of you ever noticed it.
Indeed, will confess that until recent
~ the tact never occurred to me with
any force. Well, you could never guess,
SO will tell Sou. It is this: Rip Van
Wrinkle is the only lerson in the play
who speaks English with slightly
bloken Dutch accent. All of the other
characters are obliged to content them
selves with ordinary English. .r~
1t heightens the effect for Rip to
speak as liz does in broken accents, but
it all the other characters were to at
tempt a dialect there would be such a
variety of accent that the effect would
be incongruous and ridiculous. All the
feeling and sentiment Of the play would
be lost in this polyglot attempt at dia-
lect.
r y
play Nick Tedder came on at rehearsal
and commenced to talk in the broadcast
low Dutch accent. l stopped him at
once, but in lis own defense he ex-
claimed:
ri "'Eut Nick Vedder would talk that
vay, Wouldn't he, il Rip Van Wrinkle
did:'
Eyes, replied, he would, but you
mustn t. Aud no doubt the man
thought me very unreasonable. But this
only illustrates the point tat many
things apparently illogical m ust be done
on the stage to secure effect BY inspir-
ing the imal nation. Absolute realism
would be fatal. Under certain condi-
tons it is the necessity of dramatic art
to make the impossible seem real. -
