James III. Wallick's spectacular melo-
drama, Devils Island" was enough TO pack
the Park yesterday and last night, and
will remain there all week. This play Is
based on the celebrated Dreyfus case, and
is presented in exactly the same manner,
scenically, as Ii was at English's several
months ago. There are a few changes in the
cast but these are rather to the advantage
of the production. Emily Rigl's portrayal
OF Countess Nina Petrovsky, who was the
unwilling cause of Maurice de la Tours dis
grace and Punishment to Devils island, is
the great hit of the drama. Her work In
this piece is a treat for "A Park Theater au-
dience. Mr.. Wallick, in the costume of Max
well, the newspaper correspondent, looked
SO young that his old friends in the audience
did not at first recognize him, but his WELL
remembered forceful reading of his lines
soon ELECTED applause such as he has long
been accustomed TO receiving. Leander
Bladen still iDterprets the character of
Maurice de Ia Tour, who is really Dreyfus
thinly disguised, and his work shows "a
marked Improvement. Miss Dorothy Ross

very well balanced. and with the elaborate
scenic effects, a production is given that is
eminently satisfactory, and one that will
afford the best of entertainment during the
