Cumberland '61."

At the Academy OF Music last evening
the King Dramatic company presented
for the first time in this city, Franklin
Fyle's much-talked of war drama Cum
berland '6l."
Mr.. Fyles is the gentleman who pre-
sides over the dramatic department of
the New York Sun and who In this cap
acity daily bursts forth, like all dram
attic critics, against the unreality and
forced methods of the modern playwright.
Surely one would think here is an ideal
person to fashion n real play.
But Mr. Fyles couldn't get away from
the stock ideas of war drama, and Cum
berland 81" is simply a melo-drama with
all the familiar types, but dressed up in
better language and combining a certain
dexterity in plot with some attempt at
character sketches. 1t was melo-drama,
blood and thunder melo-drama almost,
but good melo-drama.
There was the southern girl in love
with the northern officer, the Villainous
colonel, stage colonies In time of war are
generally villains-the comedy lovers and
all the other essentials of a war drama
The new type was the half-breed Indian
cadet with the savage blood still linger-
ing in him, who kills the father who de.
MES that he is his son. This part was
played by Kirk Brown, who though he
nouthed terribly at times, was on the
whole quite acceptable.
From an artistic standpoint the hit
OF the evening was made by Miss Rachel
Barr. who assumed the role of negro
nanny with such fidelity that II was
hard to imagine she was "blacked up"
Special mention should also be made of
the work of Katherine Gregg, Arthur
Pickens. George II. Rowe and Frank Fey.
The piece affords much opportunity for
scenic and spectacular effect which was
not taken advantage OF by the manage
burning bridge in the third act. which
was fairly realistic. The company is to
be congratulated, however, on being able
to rise above the Dads Girl or Lost In
New York type of drama. This after
noon Faust will be presented and In
the evening Hoyt's famous comedy "a
| Tin Soldier will he the bill.

The Great Play "Zaza."

When David Belasco produced THE
Heart of Maryland the fact began to
reveal itself that his was a master hand
in stagecraft, and his work as a dramat-
ist began to assume an Importance that
made IL of great value. Mr.. Belasco has
followed this play with "Zaza," conceded
to be the dramatic triumph of the CEN
tury. Charles Frohman will present
"Zaza" for the first time in this city
at the Lyceum theater on Monday even
ing next.
The company presenting the play has
been selected and thoroughly rehearsed
by Mr.. Belasco. In fact the production
will be under the personal direction of the
author of the play. All of the great
scenic effects that contributed so largely
to the phenomenal success of the play in
New York will be seen in this city. To a
playgoer to miss "Zasa" would be like
missing a Calve night in opera. There is
no doubt that every seat In the house
will be sold when Mr.. Belasco's great
play is presented in this city.

direct official application to foreign
Governments for documents mentioned
IN the bordereau, yet if by side wind
the documents could be produced he
certainly would be personally very

Hint to Germany.
This is practically an invitation to
Germany to volunteer to communicate
the documents in question.
AT the conclusion of Trarieux's testi-
mony, which was veritable speech for
the defense. and which apparently made
an impression upon the Judges, the
court-martial went behind closed doors
and examined the secret dossier.
The court also deliberated upon M.
LaDor's request that application be
made to Germany for the documents
described in the bordereau The decision
was unanimously reached to reject the
application, on the ground that the
Court was incompetent to invite the
government to take diplomatic steps
to obtain the documents in question. 1t
was also decided to hear M. Cernuschi

A Linaual Addiction.

He was an angular man, with gray
earwhiskers. He gave up his seat in
the crowded cable car with an alacrity
which spoke well for the cheerfulness
of his disposition. The lady who took
the profrered seat was stout and hear
ty. She slipped into the vacant place
without word. The angular man look
ed at her thoughtfully; then he stopped
over and said:
II had an uncle, ma'am, who had Just
the same afiisction."
"Sir!" said the stout lady, with an
