A Pistol Permit

Mrs. Hetty Green applied to the po-
lice department of New York city for
permission to carry a pistol and Cap
tain Steven O'Brien. OF the Leonard
street station, granted it. Captain
O'Brien's report on the application
stated that Mrs. Green declares that
she Is in the habit of carrying about
with her large sums of money. stocks.
bonds, jewelry. ETC., and that 1t IS her
intention to apply for a pistol permit
in all of the large cities which she WIS.,
its. Mrs. Green Is an independent,
fearless old lady. but this pistol per-
NIT is an invitation to robbers. They
were unaware, until her own declara-
ton enlightened them. that she carried
a large enough share of her wealth
around with her to tempt first-class
thug. 1t may be that Mrs. Green can
draw her gun quickly enough to out
wit the designs of the profession. the
members of which are as enterprising
and as successful as any thieves in the
world. Mrs. Green's application is In
the way of dare to this class and
there may be one or two who will not

en- her application lessons her chances
of slipping along unnoticed by these

brother-in-law would be very con-
venient.
While her fiance is showing her the
ring and exulting over its beauty. with
no apparent compunction she tells him
that she loves another. The broken
hearted lover goes out, the rich suitor
comes in and is accepted. Historically
but without expression Of sympathy
for the Second In Command" Miss
Conquest is q cold blonde who keeps
cies. The character of Muriel Man
nering is not particularly admirable
as It comes fresh from the hands of
the playwright. Miss Conquest's some
what cold temperament has left the
character unrelieved by the touch Of
humanity that is required to make an
audience forgive sights to SO very
modern and effective a hero as Major
Bingham (John Drew.
The part is ungrateful. Muriel Man
nering Is entirely absorbed in herself
and her own emotions and schemes to
get a desirable brother-in-law for her
brother and home for herself. Major
Bingham is the modest. good-natured
man, a universal favorite with his own
sex. who is 80 accustomed to sacrificing
his own pleasure and convenience for
other people that no one notices 1t.
They say II the spheres ever stopped
making heavenly music we could hear
it when they began again. But be-
cause they have from the beginning
made heavenly harmony we have never
heard 1t. Mr.. John Drew makes the
1t sweetness distilled from his own
personality. q sweetness and humor
unimasined by the dramatic author.
So that what he loses by Miss Con-
quests temperament is more than
made up by the sweetness and humor
bestowed upon the role of Major Bing-
ham by John Drew.
Just why certain men and women of
the stage are favorites and others who
do their parts faultlessly are not. it is
hard to say. John Drew. Sol Smith
Russell May Irwin. and of course Jo-
seph Jefferson have a large personal
following. Audiences who have never
seen such an actor on the stage love
him for something inherent in himself
which the actor himself reveals.
John Drew strikes the key note Of
most Americans. We are tuned to him
and he can send a faultless message to
any part Of an American audience. 1t
Is the same with May Irwin. She has
the priceless temperament that keys
the audience to responsive harmony.
Dramatic authors whose heroes and
heroines are played by these actors and
actresses of temperament are In luck
The play Is almost sure of popularity.
for the temperament and the good
understanding 1t creates have won the
day before the curtain falls on the first
scene.
1t may be that this quality is an ex-
ira amount of human-ness. When
John Drew or May Irwin or Joe Jeffer-
son are playing their parts on the
stage we do not measure their per-
formances coldly or critically. Each
one OF these talented members Of a
great profession has ingratiated him
self with each individual Of the audi
ence. The soft side Of a thousand
hearts is turned to them and John
Drew's and May Irwin's imperfect hu-
man figures are Of no consequence.
Their faults Of vocalization or short
comings Of one kind and another are
overbalanced by the good understand

him the tripod and everything about
