Morosco's s.

Tomorrow evening "Blacklisted," a melodrama with labor troubles for its motive, will be performed at Morosco's. $. The plot bears a slight resemblance to that of '"The Lost Paradise" There are several very striking scenes; notably the interior of the mill with the entire machinery in full motion, the destruc- tion of the mill by fire and the clash be- tween the military and the strikers The play hinges upon a wrongful ac- cusation of murder, whereby Frank Lyn- ton, the young foreman of the mill. is nearly hanged.
 The cast will include the full Morosco stock company. James M. Brophy will play the persecuted young foreman, and Lorena Atwood will have the role of Mary Vernon, the daughter of the lead CT of the strikers. Marie Winson, the lively .soubrette, has had her engagement extended and will appear as Buttons, a waif. The play contains a very strong child character, for which little Venie Wells of First Born" fame has been specially engaged. Several popular yau- deville turns will be interpolated

is feeling of an obvious, ordinary kind Great passions and the enormous are, on the other hand, beyond spectacular representation. Love is probably the sole great passion which an audience of aver age men and women can endure for more than one act and to a tragic issue Large revenge, pride, fear and the like please but few minds. The more emotions con- veyed or hinted at the better no doubt, ception already named. should be raised unduly to the depression of the others The theater is place of relaxation.
 When the majority of pleasure-seekers find piece tedious 1t is failure beyond question as a play. When the majority find piece agreeable to their taste it must have fulfilled, at all events, one vital condition of its existence as a piece.

Many of his petitioners are, no doubt, honest admirers of the Mansfield genius, but many others on the list have gloried Tn the Mansfield misfortunes and envied the Mansfield good luck. It was a good deal to ask him to put aside needed rest, open the theater and bring out troupe or players to entertain the profession that has never been his friend and supporter, and 1t IS not surprising that MT.

ing effort as MT. William Archer. Any one who has followed the career of MT. Archer's especial proteges must have noticed that they all come to certain fail- ure and misfortune, as surely as Sandra- go's patients all died of the fever. And a dramatiSt who wishes for a modest amount of success with his public may we'll be alarmed lest In some unlucky moment MT. Archer may lay hands on him and discover his plays to be master pieces. And if this be thought to be im- possible in my own case, I can only again refer to the astonishing list of plays which he has discovered to be masterpieces. l declare that not one of us is safe from him. And any playwright who is placed in this precarijous position may well con- sider how he may discourage MT. Archer and so escape the disaster of his praise. But, indeed, I have no such selfish motive, and my only thought Is to take MT. Archer out of the mean little byways where he has groped so long and to set him with his face forward on the main highway of the dramas advancement.

It is at least an entertainment The vul- gar, much abused popular melodrama has this unfailing characteristic-it will hold. in the face of every esthetic objection, your cheerful attention. In comedy life must be presented in a deliberately arti- ficial way-that is to say, presented under strictly artificial conditions. No one, Tor instance, in looking at portrait, IS asked to mistake it for a wax model or a real parsonage In admiring 12-inch land scape we do not blame the artist, because we are unable to scamper in reality over his fields or pluck the lilacs in his garoen. We go to him neither for deception nor an imitation-but for an idea, an illustra- ton or statement"

ST JOHN.

Until a few years ago ST, John
is a name that was rarely heard Of
IN North Carolina. But it is very
different to-day. One Of the best
known names in the State is the
name St. John.
All Of this has been brought
about by the coming Of Mr. E.
ST. John, the general manager Of
the Sea Board Air Line. But
whit a futter along the line Of
road did the announcement Of his
coming create. The people were
up in arms about it. He had the
bitterest Of opposition even be-
fore he had assumed the duties Of
the Office. All classes were OPP
posed TO him. But this evidently
made no difference to him. St.
John was here for business, for
the development Of the read, for
the upbuiIding Of the country along
his lines Of railroad, and thereby
to add to the happiness and pros
perity Of all the people. These
facts the people were not slow 10
learn. and in q yery short time
they realized that a benefactor had
come among them. Opposition
vanished like snow before and
April sun, and to-day his praise
is upon the lips of those who for
merIy opposed, and his name is
familiar ail over the South. The
people are fortunate who live along
the line Of the Sea Board Air
Line, because the general manager
of the system, AMI the officers an
der him are always at work adj
the resources Of the ter
traversed by the Sea Board,
and invite strangers to come and
among them. In this di-
rection wonders have already been
accomplished. The Sea Beard
