The critics in New York recall a day
when Irving played to half-empty houses
and the grand opera almost lost its
fashionable prestige; when the Rogers
Brothers were unknown, and Weber &
Fields were about to fail. because a ne
gress who weighed over 400 pounds was
dancing the ballet at a prominent roof

building inspectors interfered, because
New York was free susplclously soon

From this point OF view-and il is the

Wv judgment two or three
months ago on THE Runa-
ways" a characteristic ebullition Of the
present theatrical age. That Judgment
was distinctly unfavorable. notwith-
standing the pretensions of those who
managed the enterprise that The Runa-
ways" was planned for the summer en-
tertainment OF New York. The play was
voted inane. Tire acting and singing
we're adjudged vile. The music was pro-
