II is to be hoped that when the new

nit the pavement to be so far below

In New York as everywhere else this
Is quite the dullest period OF the thea

done much to relieve the dullness Of a
dull week.

Edward Mackey plays the hero with
considerable dignity, and manages TO
make his part attractive in spite OF its
being rather uninteresting. Marie Allen
plays his mother sympatheticaIly.
Mabel Bert improves a very small on
poTtunity. For the rest, the cast IS
rather commonplace and artificial, like

there IS a good storm at the end of the
third act.
