"sHAuN RHuE."

There is ample opportunity for some
philosophic writer to evolve an essay
upon the subject of public taste as to
dramatic literature, devoting a large
portion of the article to the loyalty of
the public as to certain actors in GER
tain plays. Joseph Jefferson has made
repeated efforts to win, commercially,
fame in other characters equal to that
which he enjoys as Rip Van Wrinkle,
but without success; Charlotte Cush-
man had similar experience in an eff
fort to put her Meg Merrilles in the
backgrounds; John Owen, a great char
acter comedian, could not draw a house
except as "Solon Shingle," Sothern,
as Dundreary; John S. Clarke, as DR..
Pangloss, and others, have each con-
tributed to the record.
The present day comedian, Joseph
Murphy, was asked why he does not
try to get a new play to succeed Shaun
Rhue." His reply was that he has
been unable to find worthy success
or. "Why should ] worry about it?'
he continued 1.-THE play of Shaun
Rhue" is strong in its emotional con-
trasts, the scenic points are legitimate
and beautiful, the climaxes are con-
sistent and powerful and the story
told is beautiful one. More than that

"Onaway, Awake Beloved" the beau
tiful tenor solo from CoIeridge Tay-
lor's "Hiawatha," is more or less ia
miliar to American audiences, but its

"Beaucaire," Richard Mansfield's new
play, now being produced at the Co.
lonial Theatre, Boston, is so far the
greatest financial success that Mr..
Mansfield has had. The piece, since
its opening in Philadelphia on Octo-
Der 7, has met with most constant ap-
prevail from theatre-goers, and during
the past week $2O2S were the smallest
receipts for one performance. The story
of the play is from Booth Tarking-
toms novel, Monsieur Beaucairee,"
and the dramatization was done by
Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland of Bos-
ton, assisted by Mr.. Harrington. The
endings of the third and fifth acts are
not in the book and the first act Is
founded on single line In the novel,
"Beaucaire" will be seen at the CO.
lonial Theatre for one week longer,
and will appear at the Worcester The

kidnapped. in New York" a four-act
up-to-date melodrama by Howard Hall
will be the attraction at Lothrop's
Opera House all this week. The story
of this play deals with some intensely
interesting and picturesque phases of
life in greater New York.
The plot suggests the world famous
Marion Clark kidnapping case. John
Brandon is the treasurer of the Man
haitian Boat Club. He has a daughter
Mary Mr.. Dooley, the detective, is
Mr.. Gilmore There is John Clark,
rich merchant, his daughter Elise, and
. Signor Maziotti, an Italian nobleman.
Brandon, though innocent, is sent to
fail for robbing the clubs safe of
$11, 900 Mary is left homeless and penni-
less. Dooley loves and befriends her,
and believes her father a victim of con-
spiracy. The girl changes her name
10, Mary Manton and becomes the gov
erness of Baby Clark The nobleman
visits Mr.. Clark and discovers Mary.
Upon his revealing her identity she is
sent adrift in the great city. With
the aid of "Birdy' Bolden, his accom-
plice, Mazotti;plans to abduct Elise She
Is taken to Central Park. In this scene
Dooley appears in the disguise OF
laborer and Mary happens around to
see the child. Suddenly cry is
heard and Baby Elise is missing
'.Birdy" having driven; her off in cab
The nobleman trumps up the charge
that he saw Dooley in coachman's liv-
cry drive away Dooley discloses his
Identity, and denounces the Italian,
who swears that Mary in revenge for
her dismissal arranged the kidnapping
Dooley Is determined to find the child,
and in the next act, "a kidnappers "den,"
where he goes disguised as a fruit
vendor, he discovers her Maziotti
swears that he was about to return
Elise, and accuses Dooley, who has the
child, as the real abductor But Dooley
produces abundant proof Of his inno-
cence of this charge, and restores Elise
to her parents. The play ends happily.
Dooley and Mary are engaged, while
the villanous nobleman and "Birdy"
get their reward-full justice.
Heart interest is the chief character
istic of the play, and one of its most
popular elements. Holding the mirror
IN to nature is said to be in the
province of the stage, and this is fully
exenplified in Kidnapped in New
York 81 The scenery is described as
realistic and picturesque.
