That the play at Oberammergau Is alb

cannot be disputed. 1t is heart-breaking
to destroy illusions; but that the people
at present are given up to the sanctity or
the spiritual phase of the situation Is now
becoming very doubtful. One thing Is
certain, that in It's later phases the under
strata at Oberammergau Is meney-
making.
No one, 1t seems, can listen to the play
without being breathlessly absorbed; but
still there are heights that 1t is impossi-

gau was in one OF the July numbers Of
Harper's Weekly by Irenasus Prime
Stevenson. He strips the play Of all Its
varnish and presents the situation as It
really exists, giving the motives, merits
and dement's impartially, pointing out
Its weakness and giving credit to what
ever strength IL contains. At the end he
says, "Do not go to oberammergau as
an object of sentiment or reverent curl
osity, walt until 1t Is brought TO you.
That viii come to pass in due time, be
very sure"
1t is indeed true. that the awful and
most to be dreaded danger from the mad
excitement which the world has worked
itself up into about Obsrammergau is
the revival Of an enterprise attempted In
1882 at the Baldwin Theatre in San Fran
cisco, and afterwards suppressed. The

plays as "Ben Hur," "Quo Vadis."
