forward, and to the Russian Jews to
cultivate a just pride in their race and
country. Why should the Irish Roman
Catholic rejoice in his race and religion,
he asked, and the Russian Jew be behind

and his faith, lifting his head in this
country Of the free? Japan was paying

"He needs none of Barondess's urging.
He is my tailor-not very much OF a

Well, he sent fifty thousand rifles to
Russia yesterday, to help the revolution

The Spectator came out into the cold
night air and took the uptown car. The

was simple and tragic. Solomon Klaus,
the inventor, starving, perfecting his
invention of the steam engine, or some
thing like it, has his plans stolen by the
house by Cardinal Richelieu as insane,
and, when his child dies and his machine
is gone, goes mad in earnest and dies raw
ing. The audience followed the play
breathlessly. One small girl Of perhaps
twelve, in red satin waist hung over
the gallery railing with both arms wrapt
in the scenes, her long necklace of bright
blue beads pendent in the air, like the
Blessed Damosel and when the tragic eli
makes came, like the Blessed Damosel
again
She cast her arms along
The golden barriers,
And wept q heard her tearsj.'
For that matter, the Spectator heard
everybodys s tears. AT times, as when
the child died, the whole house was dis
solved. The feelings of the audience
were genuine and deep. When, in
response to the curtain call, the villain,
the soubrette and the hero came out
after the first act, the villain was hissed
vehemently off the stage. Even the
children stopped sucking the sticks Of
candy and joined in. Jacob Adler was
called half dozen times before the cur
tain after the last act and was applauded
wildly each time. "Adler, he is a good
man." explained the neighbor; ''he al
ways helps when there is need. He has
a heart for the poor
Between the acts everybody went
visiting all over the theatre Few seemed
to go out but there was continual move
ment up and down the aisles and loud
greetings were interchanged. After the
second act, an official Of the Knee-Pants
Union made a speech from the stage.
1t was very long and fluent, and full Of
talk about the open shop and the closed
shop and President Roosevelt and the
Broadway manufacturers. The Spectator
knew that, because these English words
were used over and over again, Yiddish
evidently having no equivalent for them.
Also, the audience were being urged to
join the Knee-Pants Union and to stick
by it and by the closed shop; and when
the harangue was over, the orchestra
played the Marseillaise" as a curtain
raiser for the next act, while all the
audience got back into their own seats
again. But the great sensation of the
evening was after the last act, when
Adler, at the fifth curtain call, led out a
slender, eager-faced Jew, over whom the
audience fairly went wild. "That is
