"sThe Double Life. "

play called '"Ths Double Life" was brought
forth last night at the Bijou Theatre and Mr. Henri
de Vries. Dutch actor who speaks English. as
sumed the principal part In IL. Mr.. de Vries. Il
will be remembered. made his first appearance in
America last January ct the Madison Square The
atre playing several parts. IN a sketch called "a
Case or Arson" In THE Double Life" he repre-
sents young in good health. prosperous and
happy and. later, the same man who. having been
robbed and maltreated by rufians. has lost all
memory OF the past and all knowledge Of his own
tdentity-so that, practically, he becomes somebody
else. New circumstances arrange themselves and
thls unfortunate person reappears as a workman
IN mine. He is now older. bears another name,
has married and is a father. His daughter Is
woced by the gay son Of his employer. and. pres
emily, Misunderstanding the situation, he suffers
mental shock that restores his pristine condition;
ana thereupon II IS shown that he IS a pro-
prietor OF the mine and not merely laborer IN
H. and his domestic conditions are rectihed. This
play is blighted with extrsvagant improbability
TO its incidents and therefore it leaves its auditors
incredulous and unimpressed; buI the central idea
OF II does not lack authority. In OF his essays
De Quincy mentions the case Of a man who fell out
OF second story window and suffered such injury
that he lost all sense Of his personality, till, fall
ing out Of third-story window. he received
ether shock that completely restored him to him

Mr. de Vries is Photographic actor, showing a
keen perception OF the superficial traits that COM
mingls to reveal character and copying and blend

with consummate dexterity, He possesses sensi-
bility and humor. and he expresses elemental feel
