! the outlook is getting darker and dark
er; there is not the slightest incentive
to hope"
That is David Belascos final word
upon the dramatic situation. He has
expressed himself i'm much the same
vein heretofore, but the experiences of
the present season have apparently
served only to emphasize the pessimism
of his viewpoint. And it is all the
more surprising coming from a man
who has been identified with one of
the most successful of the exceeding
ly few successful theatrical ventures
of the year.
THE Drama is the Sick Man of
America. II has been ailing for a long,
long time he said, land is rapidly
growing worse. Personally, | see no
possible chance for Improvement. Not
at least while theatrical conditions are
such as prevail to-day, not while the
stage is in the absolute control of
class of men who are banded together
for the one purpose of making money
who persistently throttle every effort
in the making for the advancement of
the drama.
"The trouble is that the intelligent
public is ignored. The managers as
sumo that the whole community is on
their own level. Show me a woman's
sweetheart or husband. and l will tell
ybu WHAT lHGl WOildu - llht. IOlill
out the men who give the country its
drama. and it will be readily apparent
just what that drama represents.
II have seen the American drama
in it's days of greatest prosperity, and
l have seen ii at times when financial
and commercial conditions were such
as to make only for adversely for those
who were its projectors. But even in
those days of adversely, though play
goers may have been fewer, the dra-
ma in itself still remained beautiful.
! To-day the playhouse in America is
absorbed by men who, without one
qualification for the task they have
arrogated to themselves, try to mold
men of genius, men of letters, and
men of brains, to the limited confines
of their own narrow intelligence.
THE American public is beginning to
think for itself, Plays no longer sue
/ coed here merely because they are
! brought over from London, with the in
/ dorsement of the English producers.
There is comfort in the fact that such
/ a play as The Virginan' has succeed
ed in a season when foreign works
have met with little or no support.
Such success spells hope for the Amer
! lean playwright.
1.-The outlook for the country gener-
! ally next season is woeful. This year
| New York has felt its worst. Business
| has not been So bad relatively in st.
/ Louis, Denver, San Francisco, and the
! other cities of the West. But what
has the out-of- town public to look for
ward to for next season? The coun-
try at large gets its supply of plays

der of the Savannah Chatham Artil-
lery, was here with his four guns,
including two of the Charleston bat
terry, making six guns in all engaged
in the fight. In this interval
the Chatham Artillery kept up a Wig
orous and incessant fire that was ter
rible to witness and held the enemy
in check until the ammunition ar
rived" Mrs. Thompson speaks of the
heavy losses of the Eighteenth Geor-
gia. "Col. Neil in command" pre-
sumo she refers to Capt. j. B. O'Neil
of Co. A., of that regiment. Some
years ago a friend of mine, now dead,
copied from the original the thanks of
Congress to Gen. Finegan's troops, and
will add it here:
Joint Resolution of Thanks to Gen.
Finegan and the Officers and Men Of
his Command:
"Resolved, by the Congress of the
Confederate States of America, That the

"PARSIFAL" IN ENGLISH.
Most People Want to Understand the
Singing of an Opera.


New York. March 5.-The news that
''Parsifal' is to be given in English
soon after the close of Conrieds grand
opera season at the Metropolitan has
at last leaked out. Mr.. Savage. of
the old Castle Square organization,
who had been very successful with
English opera here and in other cities,
proposes to make this enterprise a
sort OF climax for everything of
his that has gone before. 1t is
generally agreed that he is going
to be sure winner. People
who do not like to pay from IS to S25
to hear "Parsifal." yet who have be-
come unusually wrought up by the
glowing reports of it's beauty which
have been published, ,are sure to turn
out in great numbers as soon as they
can have the opportunity of hearing it
for less money.
That it will be sung in English and
not in a foreign tongue will not
dampen their ardor in the least, but,
on the contrary, will probably insure
greater success. The majority of the
people want to understand the singing
when they go to hear an opera.
There is. in some quarters. a notion
that the giving of this opera at lower
prices than Conried and in English
will reduce the interest in it next year,
when he proposes to give it again in
German. Shrewd observers, however,
do not believe this. They say that
the people who will hear Mr. Saw
ages "Parsifal' do not care to hear
it sung in German, and that those
who have paid big prices to hear the
Conried "Parsifal' do not care to
hear it in English. Doubtless these
observers are correct in a way.
1t is probably true, however. that

no great number of people, even of
those who are musical connoisseurs,
would really object to hearing the
opera in English. What they do OBJ
ject to is hearing first-class music sung
in anything but a first-class way, and
it must be admitted even by those
who appreciate Mr.. Savages remark
able success with his English opera
productions. that his singers are not
always UP to the level of the work
they essay. The discriminating among
those who are preparing to attend the

trlgue and Intensity, and ends SOM
berly enough for a veritable tragedy
Olympic, the heroine, is an actress
travelling through France in the reign
of Louis XIV. Jacques Bonniere, a
young student at the Jesuit College at
Avignon, who desires to become an
actor and who climbs from his cell
window to the roof of the theater to
see her perform, falls in love with her,
runs away and finally becomes a SOL
der in order to escape the consequence
of his act. Olympic reciprocates his love,
but has been selected by certain politi-
cal powers as the one woman who can
be used to supplant the Marquise de
Pompadour in the favor of the King.
They undertake to arouse the jealousy
of Jacques by telling him that the
King is already successful in the af-
fections of Olympic. He believes them
and gives himself up as a deserter
from the army, refusing to avail HIM
self of an unlimited leave of absence
that he had received. He is shot out
side the walls of Paris just as Olympic
arrives, and she commits suicide over
the dead body of her lover.

reputation. In the showing of the pas

and fierce hatred for all things that
are holy and pure, which are the es-
sentials of Mephisto's character. Mr..
Morrison is at home His portrayal of
the callous, merciless, hooking Satan
has interested Savannah audiences
many times.
Ezra Kendall, who comes here soon
in his new three-act comedy, THE
Vinegar Buyer" is one of the few CO.
medians on the stage who uses no
makeup whatever. 1t takes him about
four minutes to prepare for the stage.
All the change of costume he makes
consists of that old coat and hat, and
old-style necktie, and shoes that have
seen about twenty summers. Then he
runs his hands through his gray hair
and all is ready. Not a daub of rouge
goes on his face.
