snecInl Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
London. Dec. 26-In Paris, theater
gOers are exclaiming over the lugub-
rious tone which has characterized
practically every play Of the first inn
portance that has been produced this
season. 1t has been remarked that the
anti Semitic drama, "The Return from
Jerusalem" by which 50 much discus
sion has been aroused, Is a mixture OF
sociology and unhappy love, that Ma
ternlty" Is a lecture on individual self
ishness, that "GermInie Lacerteux' Is
eart-rending, while Sardous "Sorceres'
Is unrelieved tragedy, II seems to be
agreed however, that Paul Hervieu
has surpassed all recent efforts at har-
rowing the feelings Of audiences with
his new play, "I.e Dedale," which, In
English would be called, 1.-THE Maze.
No one denies, however that this work
by the author Of THE Enigma Is far
above the average modern drama, and
It seems likely TO prove one Of the big
Partisan successes OF the present year,
though whether 1t can be put into Eng
lish satisfactorily Is less certain.
THE Maze" Is a sort OF object lesson
~ the advantage OF being off with the
old love before one Is on with the new.
At the beginning, the heroine, Marianne
de Pogis, Is living apart from her hus-
band, Max, whom she has divorced on
account Of intldellty on his part She
has little son, Of whom the courts
have given her the charge. And she
also has a sutor I'm the person Of an
excellent man named Gillaume who
Is anxious 10 make her his wife. This
offer Marianne is inclined to accept
chiefly because she finds her position
as divorced woman unpleasant, sec
ondly because she rather likes Gull
laume and believes he will make her
a good husband. MarIanne's resolute
mother opposes her on the ground that
remarriage would be sin, and the
first strong emotional note Is sounded
I'm the play when its heroine, disre-
gardlng her parents entreatles leaves
her to marry Guillaume
AT the commencement OF the second
act, Marianne has been married TO
Gulllaume for some time, Max de
Pogis her first husband calls upon
her, He Is honestly regretful for what
has happened In the past, and his only
object IN seeing Marianne now Is to
ask permission TO have some part IN
the bringing up Of his son, for whom
he feels all fathers love, In fact, he
wants permission TO take the boy away
AT once for visit at Ms country
house, and pleads his cause so well that
Marianne Yields, and the boy goes
away with de Pogis. All through this
act, by the way II Is indicated clearly
that, though neither the man nor the
woman is willing to reveal 1t by
single sign. coming IN contact with
each other has filled them both with
thoughts Of their former relationship
And now destiny takes a hand In the
game. Mariannes little son falls dan
gerously IN at de Pogis' house, and the
mother hurries there TO be at his side,
For whole days the two parents meet
constantly at the childs bed, with the
result that might have been expected.

The action of the county exc
cutive committee, in assessing
Congressman Legare $500, in
our opinion, was a waste of time,
and will not accomplish anything
towards forcing Charleston to
return him his money, if that
was the purpose. AS we under
stand it the State Executive
Committee has very unjustly
given to Charleston the special
privilege of assessing Congress
ional candidates, and in taking
advantage of this special privi-
lege, the Charleston committee
has been unreasonably exorbi-
tant, but Congressman Legare
has paid it, and so far as that
transaction is concerned the
matter is settled. We do not
think our committee should have
made any assessment upon the
Congressman at all, because the
committee has no right to, but
it could have made a request as
it did two years ago, and we
have not the slightest doubt that
Mr.. Legare would have made a
contribution; as it is, he will pay
no attention to the demand Of
our committee, and he will be
voted for just the same, and his
votes will be counted.

There is much ado being made
over the telegram Judge Parker
sent to the St. Louis convention
but in our Judgment Parker did
not DO anything more than Bryan
did when he told the Democratic
convention Of 1900 that unless it
put a silver plank in the plat
form he would not accept the
nomination. Parker's silence
prior to the nomination might
have been misleading, but his
declaration on the money ques-
ton in time to take him off the
ticket if the convention desired
to do so left no doubts, and
those who distrusted the Democ-
racy on account of its money
theories are no longer groping
ir the dark. We believe the tel
egram will mean many thousand
Independent Republican votes to
the Democratic ticket.
