OF vocal gems, and the chorus also pre-

meritorious manner. 1t is evident, how

WOld Limerick Town"

MIR. Chauncey Olcott is ambitious to
have his fame mean something more
than that he sings love ballads eX-
quisitely. Pm his new play, "Old Linn
erick Town." he has the most serious
and the best play of his career. and to
be in keeping with his play Mr.. Olcott
does his most serious and his best
work. There Is more acting and less
song in "Old Limerick Town" than in
any of the preceding Olcott plays This
may be disappointment to many OF
the admirers of the handsome ballad
singer, but 1t has its compensations,
for IL reveals in the star histrionic pos
sibilities not generally appreciated be-
fore.
"Old Limerick Town Is a four-act
drama and as the name indicates the
scene Is laid in Limerick. Ireland, in
the years 1885 and 1886. 1t Is a drama
of the romantic school,, and is gorgeous
ly staged and no less gorgeously cos

man, who came into snug for-

hearted, generous, chivalrous youth,
and when the play opens he finds him.
self on the verge of bankruptcy, be-
cause of his frivolous life and expensive
habits, assisted by the Vaccinations Of
an English captain and tools he makes
use of; the purpose being to wreck
O'Briens prospects of winning the
hand Of Noreen Burke.
His misfortunes bring out the latent
resources and manhood of O'Brien He
assumes charge of the factory and soon
wins back the position in the world
that he had lost. and makes a captive
Of the fair Noreen as well.
During the play Mr.. Olcott sang THE
Limerick Girls" 1.-The Voice of the Vio-
let" and "Noreen Mavourneeen," with
the voice and method that are so dis
tinctively his own. Needless to say he
was encored. "Noreen Mavourneen" is
sung in the third act, and to encore 1t
spoils one of the best scenes in the
play 1t was encored last night so Wig
orously and persistently that after a
half-dozen efforts to proceed with the
dialogue that follows the close of the
song, Mr.. Olcott very reluctantly had
to give the audience its way. The song
should be shifted to some other part of
the play, where it will do less harm if
Mr.. Olcott's audiences cannot be in
duced to express their appreciation less
insistently.
Mr. Olcott has the assistance of a
fine company in presenting "Old Linn
ericF Town." which will be repeated at
the Lyceum tonight. Last nights audi
ence was very large one.
