THEIR KEENEST THRILL.
Playwrishts Pick Out Most Exciting Mo-
ments I'm Dramas.

A curious example OF the way doctors
dlsa gree was brought out recently by q
Strand symposium,
In this case the doctors were dramatists.
The magazine had sent them this question:
What is the finest dramatic situation within
your knowledge?
Seventeen Of the leading English play
wrights responded. Disagree? Only two
pairs OF them agreed on the same thrills.
The thirteen others seemed TO be OF indie
pendent lines, so far as their emotions
were concerned.
Bernard Shaw, with characteristic can
dor, declared that the most effective situa-
tons IN the modern stage occur in my
wi ~play-'The DEVILS Disciple aSasa1 ~S
However, Mr.. Shaw gives q tribute to
the scene in Gillette's Secret Service, =
where the hero, having either to arrest
his own brother as q spy or to be himself
arrested on the same charge, Is saved by
the brothers. shooting himself.
Hall Caine says: Il think the moment
when Hedda GubLer burns the manuscript
Of her former lover is n Of the most thrill
ing and effective Of curtains in a modern
! play, and l think the situation in Novelli q
Italian drama, The New Drama in which
the husband receives the real love letter
instead Of the stage property letter, is
one Of the most vivid dramatic moments l
can at present recall"
The same scene in "Hedda Gabler' Is
chosen by Alfred Sutro, who achieved
| success with The Walls Of Jericho"
r. @. Carton, who perpetrated mfr. Hop
| hnson,' now playing in New York, pins
his admiration to the Good Night scene
in 'The Princess and the Butterfly by
Pinero.
Capt. Robert Marshall, who wrote "The
in aThe Second Mrs. Tanqueray,S when
Paula finds herself face to face with her
daughters fance and recognizes in him
one of her former lovers. Cosmo Homil-
ton chooses the same scene.
Sidney Grundy thinks there is only one
situation In comedy, the screen scene in the
School for Scandal or some variant Of it.
William Archer says: 'The most thrilling
situation known to me In any modern play
Is that in the first act OF lbsen's little
crutch Is floating"
George R. Sims chooses a scene from
