George AIDE, author of the musical
comedy Peggy from Paris" has told a
decidedly interesting story in the play
in which he cleverly satirizes the Amer
lean trait of heaping attentions on dis
tinguished foreigners while overlooking
native genius. Peggy" is Peggy
Plummer of Hickory Crick, H., who
goes abroad to study music. There
she is discovered by a. theatrical man

beauty and dignity is ardently loved
by youthful poet, whose physical in
trinity hightens the quality of his
purely idealistic sentiment. Her hus-
band. the Rev. James Mavor Morell, is
first-rate parson and a genial happy
natured man, but in the poets eyes he
is not worthy of such a paragon for
his wife.
And the impish. brilliant weakling
tells him so to his face. He also tells
the clergyman that he loves Candida
and insists that she be acquainted with
the facts and be allowed to choose be-
tween them. The sequel is certainly
novel. and the treatment a the sub
lect quite unlike anything that has
been written heretofore.
The other characters are admirable
creations and deftly employed in the
development of the comedy Mr.. Bur-
CESS, father-in-law of Morell, and an
ignorant, worldly minded, money-lov-
ing man. is a distinctive type who in
conjunction with Prosperine, Morells
typewriter sharp-tongued, pert maid
of 3O-contributes a great deal to the
inirth of the play. They never "come
together without crossing swords, and
"Prossy's" weapon always fiays often
er and deeper than her opponents. The
rector's curate also comes in for Wig
orous treatment at her hands.
The company presenting Candida"
headed by Mr.. Lester Lornergan, was
evenly balanced. each personality fit
ting superbly with the requirements or
the lines. Mr.. Lornergan was fully up
TO the requirements of the rather diff
cult role of Eugene Marchbanks. An
unusual occurrence greeted his first
flash of that genius which is sure to
make him one of the foremost of those
in his professionalism Burgess greet
ed him and approached him to shake
his hand. It was one of those minor
incidents that often involves the real
effectiveness of an actors work, a per-
fectly executed natural bit of conduct
at a moment when the climax is not
such as to destroy the minute observ-
ance of the smaller parts. A ripple
of applause enunciated the hesitancy
and natural demeanor of the young
poet.
Candida made its first appearance in
New York last season, and was one
of the most successful pieces of the
season. Whether this We're due to the
rather unusual situation. and certainly
an unnatural one, has been the sub
1ect Of much discussion.

Candida" the rather weird. spark
ling play from the pen of George Ber-
nard Shaw, the brilliant, erratic genius
who began his turbulent literary ca
reer in Dublin. Ireland, was presented
TO two well filled houses yesterday at
matinee and evening performances.
In Candida" one is reminded of H.
sen. The production of both of these
modern dramatists and satirists have
given the continent much TO discuss,
and after Candida has been seen there
Is still left the sense that altogether
the entire intent of the author is not
perfectly portrayed. In this the play is
altogether an impossible problem.
Unlike Ibsen. this mercurial. gifted
Irishman lights UP the atmosphere of
his plays with flashes of wit. while
gloom and melancholy fee like ghosts
before the onslaught of his humor and
mirthfulness. And, unlike Ibsen, too
in this instance especially, the atmos-
phere is as pure as a breeze from the
authors native hills in the green lit
tie isle of song and story.

the public will pay higher prices to
hear her under this name than they
would as Peggy Plummer.
Arriving in Chicago Peggy telegraphs
her relatives of Hickory Crick of her
presence in the city, and thither they
go in quest of her. After many adj
ventures in the big city their search
leads them to the stage of the Paragon
Theater. In this mysterious realm they
at length meet Peggy, who, however,
denies her identity. There is a recep-
ton on the stage to Mile Fleurette,
which attracts a great variety of per-
sons. Peggy finally settles i'm apart
ments in Honeymoon Terrace and her
father, to be near her. for he refuses
to be convinced that she is not his
daughter, accepts a position i'm the
house as footman.
Leaders of fashion and their imita-
tors, and persons of various social de-
grees seek out Peggy, eager to show
her attentions. At length, in pity for
her father, and wearying of hypocrisy,
she declares herself in the presence of
a. numerous company, as Peggy Plum
mer, an American. In the musical
comedy Mr.. AIDE has created a wide
comedy of types. They are humorously
contrasted and carried into a droll and
amusing complications. The merri-
ment is infused even into the musical
tious. Especially striking are the cho-
rus numbers in which scores of pretty
girls sing and dance and move in pic
turesque measures. All the scenes of
Peggy from Paris" are laid i'm Illinois.
The first scene represents an "old
times" party the second is on the stage
of the Paragon Theater, the third is the
courtyard of Honeymoon Terrace.

THE Village Parson," which had a
successful run in tine East, and previ-
ously scored a hit i'm England, is in
tensely dramatic in action, and there
are many thrilling climaxes. The plot
of the play is as follows:
Felix Gordon. a lawyer. learns that
the wife of the Rev. Tom Cooley has
inherited a fortune, of which she is
ignorant and he plots with a dissolutc
brother Of his, named Bud, to secure
possession of the inheritance. The law
yer falsely accuses Mrs. Cooley of I'M
due friendship for Bud. An old pal
OF Buds threatens to reveal the plot,
and is killed by Bud. Gordon identi-
fes the body as that OF his brother
and charges the parson with the muir
der and he is compelled to flee to
avoid arrest.
