There are plenty of thrills in the Park
Theater performances this week. "a
Ruined Life" is the title Of the melodrama
that began yesterday for three days run,
and this is to be followed by Her First
False STEP" A crowded house greeted the
sensational, emotional and very entertain
ing drama, "a Ruined Life" last night.
1t is one of the kind that has villain
which the audience Kisses at every oppor-
tunity 1t is the kind that brings tears to
the eyes of the women and arouses the
fighting spirit of the men. There was hard
ly a man in the house last night that
wouldn't have been willing to take fall''
out of Barton Williams had the opportuni-
ty presented. Williams is a villain-on the
stage-and an oppressor of women He
caught Jess Darnleigh, his mistress by the
throat and said: Curse you, I'll kill you"
A manly young man ran out and thrust him
aside and helped the woman to her feet.
He had his reward then, for the audience
cheered and even hurrahed. Another time
man who was about TO help him out i'm a
fraud and remarked: You are an honest
man. with the devil always" replied
the other, but i never shake hands" No
audience ever more thoroughly enjoyed the
discontinue of villain than this one did
in this particular instance. There are two
things the Park Theater audiences will not
stand. They will not allow the American
flag TO be fired on with impunity and they
will not allow a woman abused. The men
at the Park always defenders OF wom-
en-. "A Ruined Life opens in gypsy
camp in England, one act is played in a
New York Fifth-avenue apartment and the
drama shifts back England. The gypsy
queen is the daughter OF wealthy Phila-
delphian, stolen when child, at the in
stance of the villain. An airship figures
in the play, and it is a clever mechanical
contrivance. The gypsy queen escapes In
the ship at time when her life Is i'm peril
from those who fear she will return tC
America and claim her fathers fortune
| The play is well staged and there is some

how to use to the best advantage, and his
singing. particularly his rendition of MY
Own United States" is one of the most
praiseworthy features of the performance
The old-time opera singer. w. T. Carlton,
appears as the Union commanding officer,
General Allen, and realizes the character,
both dramatically and vocally. Maurice
Darcy, Major Geoffry Martin, acts his
part rather stiffiy, but sings his share OF
the score in sunny tenor and dances very
gracefully. James Francis has the only
comic part in the opera in the role of the
cowardly deserter, and he handles ii pretty
well considering its limitations. The one
poor musical number of the score falls TO
his lot-a song that does not live up TO its
purpose of causing laughter. and which
might as well be cut out entirely. Albert
McGuckin, as Felix Graham, and Frank
parts acceptably, while the latter's song
and dance, with chorus of negroes, is
very pleasing.
OF the women OF the cast the first honors
are Won by Miss Lucille Saunders, as a
very charming Southern widow. Miss Saun-
ders has a handsome stage presence and a
contralto voice of rare quality. Her solo
in the second act, Years Touch Not the
Heart" is beautifully rendered. Miss Lou
Harlow makes an attractive Cordelia, and
supplies much of the life of the piece. Miss
Florence Hayward, whose voice is sweet
but not very strong soprano, is a pretty
Kate Pemberton, but her acting is anna
flourish, and the same criticism holds good
in the case of Miss Helen Beresford, who
interprets the small part of Hates brother,
Robert, the young spy who causes all of the
trouble. The chorus is good looking, vigor-
Gus and wholly acceptable, and the mount
ing of the opera, though not gorgeous, is
in good taste and very attractive indeed.
