IL Is quite unnecessary to go on with this old
description Every added word would but empha-
size the wall over the decay OF the ballet which
such exhibition as last nights must call forth.
The world is growing stiff in its joints There may
be few old theatregoers who can recall that they
saw Fanny Ellsler dance in this city, and some
operagoers who saw Nine. Gubilei dance pas de
deux with Paul Tsglioni in (of all operas the most
amazing and unaccountable) "Ffdelio" when It
first produced here in 1899: but the full glory of
the pallet never shone on America The divertisse-
ments which strakosch Mapleson. Abbey. Grau
and Conried have given not even respectable
ghosts OF the ballet of the past. Even the German
regime at the Metropolitan two decades ago did
better. The ballet is still a dignihed md admired
feature of the opera at Vienna and Paris New
York processes TO be eager to emulate those nsttu-

shall be some grace. some beauty. at least sug

ton of story like that which has been inartisti-
cally injected into this opera, while it would not
justify the procedure of librettist and composer,
would at least extenuate It, especially since 1t
would lessen the desire to listen TO the dialogue.
unintelligible 10 nine-tenths the listeners and
offensive to many of the remainder 1t is in these
things which extenuate shortcomings in other de-

titled to be exacting. If he cannot give the public

like that of the Princess de Bouion, he ought, at
least. TO enlist tne services OF one VINO can Walk
like lady, pose like lady, courtesy like a lady
and utter words intelligble to people familiar with
the language. He ought to establish school of
manners as an adjunct to his school of opera and
send some his artists TO IT, In the operas of
the older Italian school shortcomings of this nature
were forgotten in the interest excited by the music;

LINCOLN SQUARE THEATRE.
"The Mikado."

AS tuneful as ever, with a second act setting
which won "a round of applause, and a Koko who
kent the house in roars of laughter, THE Mikado"
was presented last evening by the Aborn Opera
Company at Blaney's Lincoln Square Theatre.
Robert Lett as the Lord High Executioner, was
the principal funmaker. although Harry Luckstone
invested the part OF Pooh Bah with a gravity
which was almost comical. More pretentious rem
derings of the merry opera have been offered. but
if the manifested approval Of an audience counts
for ANYTHING few have received a warmer welcome.
The Three Little Maids from School," sung by
F,stelle Wentworth Irene Langford and Fritzie Won
Busng, was delight to the Phil Branson
made ponderous and impressive Mikado. Harold
Blake made love to Yum Yum in the most ap-
rroved fashion as Nanki~Poo. Arthur Wooley
filled the part of Pish Tush. Hattie Arnolds
nouncement, as Katisha, that her wonderful left
shoulder and her remarkable right elbow could be
seen on Tuesdays and Thursdays only. presen-
tation of a visiting card, a small though eff
fective part of a loudly applauded scene.
''Frninie" with augmented cast is the
cards for next week. and the voting contest has
resulted in the selection of Victor Herberts
.'serenade'' and Auber's Fra Diavolo" as first and
second choice respectively. AS the season of the
company stands. however. 1.-The Mikado' is close
second to robin Hood" with which it began.

ARNOLD DAILY WILL BE DIRECTED.
Liebler & Co. Take Charge of the Business
of the Berkeley Theatre.

Arnold Daily has quit managing himself. Iieoler
& Co. took hold last night OF the business Of the
Berkeley Theatre as his managers and as directors
OF the little playhouse Mr. DAILY has promised to
confne his efforts to the stage and allow Iiebler &
Co. to attend TO the business affairs.
1t is the purpose Of the new management, &C
cording TO announcement made last night, to
make some needed changes Telharmonic music
will be introduced to relieve the dulness between
acts and the interior OF the playhouse will be re-
decorated and refurnished. George c. Tyler. ex-
ecutivs head of hebler & Co. made the following
remarks last night concerning the new order Of
things:
In the future conduct OF the Berkeley Theatre
the principle will be that OF playhouse for all
classes and not for a chosen few-an impression
which has in some manner gone abroad. 1t will be
Mr. Daly's task. and ours. to place the theatre
upon footing. and one that will by the very
nature OF its existence make its appeal to all per-
sons who have a real interest in the theatre. Ex-
periments will be made Just they are made In
any other house OF amusement. for all forms OF
theatrical presentation are experiments. The same
general line that has already been established by
Mr.. DAILY will be followed, with possibly some en-
bellishments that should tend to greater popu-
larity."

Mr. Francis Wilson and his auxiliary players. in

the Garrick Theatre last night. and gave spirited
performance of that amusing play. They were well
coined and cordially applauded by a pleased audi
ence They will remain at the Garrick throughout
the present week. Mr.. Wilson's acting. as Sir Guy
de We're. is droll, and his purpose to impart mirth
Is accomplished in the right spirit Of burlesque-
the maintenance OF complete gravity in situations
that are obviously ludicrous.

about to sail for England, will perform in II. This

TO the Garric5 Theatre presenting "The TOy-Maker

character and domestic incident: perhaps 1t will
prove to be a Christmas piece. The holidays are

NEW PLAY AT THE CRITERION.
"The Morals of Marcus"

A play, entitled THE Morals of Marcus"
presented last night, at the Criterion Theatre
and Miss Marie DOro and Mr.. Aubrey Smith per-
formed the leading parts in It, The central idea OF
the play is old one. but not necessarily the
worse for that reason-the idea. namely. that phi
losophy is powerless TO withstand the fascination
OF youthful beauty. Mrs. InChbald used a kim
dred scheme. more than hundred years ago. in
her comedy Of ITO Marry or Not TO Marry" play
In which Sir Oswin Mortland a recluse and scholar
is suddenly confronted in his erudite secusion, by
a runaway girl. by whom at first he IS astonished,
then allured and ultimately bewitched and subdued
In The Morals Of Marcus the theme is very DIFF
ferently treated. Sir Marcus Ordeym is sort of
hermit among books. and Syrian girl invades his
solitude and destroys his equanimity,-with conse-
nuent disastrous results to both parties. There IS
sort of consanguinity in the two plays. for the
old comedy is almost domestic in tone, while this
new one is more or less OF the torrid order that
has lately become fashionable More particular re-
mark upon 1t must be reserved 10 another time
The house crowded. and the audience seemed
to be interested.

THE DRAMA.
MR.. MASON AT THE HACKETT.
"The Witching Hour"

Mr., John Mason, warmly welcomed by a large
assembage of interested spectators, appeared at
the Hackett Theatre. last night, in new play by
Mr.. Augustus Thomas. called The Witching
Hour" The subject of the piece is mental
"telepathy"-the communication of thoughts. i'm
pressions. or influences from mind to another
without employment of the usual communicative
faculties. The principal character is highly in
telectual man. John Brookfeld. gambler. who
on the development of the plot, finds himself to be
possessed of extraordinary hypnotic faculty. That
taculty he exercises upon jury, engaged in the
trial OF n youth who, in sudden frenzy Of nher-
lted aversion to a cats Jewel, has killed man,
ior obtruding that offensive gem upon his notice.
Brookfeld. likewise through the medium OF the
press. inhames the public mind against the
prosecuting attorney in that trial and IT is inti-
mated that the jury is. hypnotcally or 'telepathi-
cally." impressed by the transference Of thought
1rom the community. Whipple at any rate. is
acquitted. Tho discredited prosecutor thereupon
trles TO murder Brookfeld but that gifted mans
hypHouc power serves to protect him. There
Is much more of this mystical philosophy in the
piece ana probably Mr.. Thomas is correct in his
conviction that thought transference plavs an ex-
ceedingy important part in all affairs OF human
life There is no startling novelty In the abstract
proposition. A deft use of 1t has been made in
The Witching Hour" and the result Is one OF
the most interesting. subtly suggestive and po-
tentially intellectual dramas that have been pro-
duced In many years. It's success was decisive
Ihe hrst act passes in the home OF Brookheld
Win the incident of the accidental
homicide. The second act passes in the home of
an old bachelor judge in Washington. The third
and fourth acts revert to the home of Brookfeld
The construction is delightfully."- symmetrical the
dialogue Is exceptionally strong and fine at times
sparkling with glints of humor. at times sweetly
expressive of deep and tender feeling, and at all
times discrminated-each person being character
and each character manfesting itself in it's own
peculiar form of speech. 1t would be diff
cult TO IND a flaw I'm the play, viewing il
as work of dramatic art for while It is instinct
with an ethical purpose,-to illustrate that
every thought is a dynamic force. and that
every person who thinks is less RESPONSE
bic for the result of that exercise of pOwer-it tells
story, in direct manner and 1t portrays natural
character There IS not bad part in It, and every
important part in 1t perfectly we'll acted. Mr.
Mason. as Broohfeld, and Mr.. Russ Whytal. as
judge Prentice distinguished themselves by i'm
presentations of the most delcately finished order
beautiful alike in spirit and execution. The sub
Ject merits more thought than can be given to It
now. Mr.. Thomas has made permanent addition
to the literature of stage, and Mr.. Mason has
gained a that will easily continue through

REVIVAL OF "a DOLLS HOUSE" I"
Bijou Theatre.

Mr. Ibsen's well known play, "A Dolls House."
was revived last night at the Bi;ou Theatre, and
Nine Nazimova repeated her performance of the
wife This subject has been sufficiently discussed
in this place. and there is word to be said
about It here. Ono scene In the play,-that of the
delirious dance.-has dramatic effect. The rest
of It is unspeakably insipid- Nine. Nazimova acts
well, as Nora, the part being easily within her
reach-and, indeed within the reach of any per-
former possessed of even rudimentary knowledge
of acting Mr.. Dodson Mitchell and Mr.. Walter
Hampden afforded earnest and Jealous aid to the
endeavors of Nine. Nazimova, and the admirers OF
that actress appeared TO be we'll pleased with al
the proceedings.
