The Drama,

San Francisco. Aug. s23.-"Hedda Ga
bier" the Iosen play which was given
last week by Blanche Bates and her
company, has aroused much comment.
Miss Bates own achievement for the
week was a remarkable one, for she
scored success in three widely different
parts-Lady Gay Spanker, Hedda Ca
bier, and Rosalind. The problems of
Ibsen's plays are not made more at
traetiye by fine clothes and a display
of wealth. He places studies of soci-
oiogy before us in their most revoiting
forms, with the pains and sorrlid con-
siderations of everyday existence. A
study OF this phase of existence is Ib-
sens hobby, one might say. but as long
as similar themes are presented in at
tractlVe forms, ii is a question whether
5ny good is accomplished. Sometimes
question of artistic value is raised.
This the plays of Ibsen must possess.
for they are consistent recitals of the
phases they represent; but while this
may give chem greater liberation, it
makes their presentation no more rea-
sonaDle. Art was meant to appeal to
our best lnstinctS-to make the world
brighter and better. and these breeders
of mental typhoid fever are hardly con-
slstent with that idea Ibsen as ar ex-

pertinent was interesting; as an enter
tainment he is hardly a success.
The critics here have spoken well of
Miss Bates RCsalind. The preparation
for the play was, of course, nece ssarily
hurried, as it was given but three or
four times, and some of Miss Bates
associates did not share in the good
opinion of the press. But as for the
star herself, it is generally thought
that sufficient time for the working out
of details, and an absence of nervous
ness would rank her Rosalind not the
least distinguished in the country
1t is expected that Miss Bates will
not again appear in stock work on the
coast. 7s her opening with the produc-
ton of Children Of the Ghetto" in New
York will really mark the opening of a
new career for here career which will
probably confine her-although that
term scarcely seems appropriate--to the
large eastern cities and probably Lon

that there was but the slightest chance
that an operation would prove successful
because the break was similar 10 that from
