EASEMENTS.
MRS. w,ggs of the Cabbage Patch"

WIS "i9qS OF tne Odppd9e TdtCn'
Two warm-hearted sympathetic au-
dienees witnessed at the Jefferson yes
terday that idyl of southern village or
suburban life which Alice Hogan Rice
first drew in a vivid manner. The drama
tized version is as representative of home
" life in the south as Sag Harbor'' is
of life at the shore, or as 1.-THE Old Home
stead" or way Down East" Is of the
hill country of New England. These plays
are in fact our quartette of genuine Amer
lean plays The real life of the American
people-the people that have made Amer
lea what it isis pictured in these four
plays, and Mrs. Wigs of the Cabbage
Patch" is by no means the least worthy
of the quartette. 1t is even fuller of
humor and pathos and human nature
than any of its colleagues. Mrs. Rices
two books are united in the play, Lovey
Mary being as essential as Mrs. Wigs.
To Mrs Madge Carr Cook belongs the
credit of transferring Mrs. Rice's ideal
creations to the stage, and making them
live thereon as real living, human crea-
lures. Mrs. Cook created the part MAX
ing it a classic that bids fair to live long
and acceptably. 1t will certainly live as
long as Mrs. Cook 2can play 1t as she
plays it now.
Mrs. Wigs is left by an unworthy hus-
band to care for five little ones, and she
takes up the task bravely. She is ever
cheerful and ever helpful She is optimism
in its best form. She is simply superb.
She is the type of the American woman
who has made this country great
To go on and enumerate the good
players last night would be to name al
most every member of a well-balanced
company. 1t would not do, however,
to omit mention of Mr.. Carter as Mr..
Stubbins," the husband of Mis- Hazy.
He is a comedian who knows how to
dance and how to be funny even in his
most solemn moments. He knows the
3nnermost secrets of drunken man. MISS
Ogden as Mis- Hazy," puts before the
audience a rare piece of character act
ing, and she did not mar the picture
by trying to look pretty
The entire play was well staged put
best of all it was true to life. 1t brought
before the audience people that all know

plays mentioned present real people III
