The CoIumbia-Chauncey OIcott.

The COIum mbia-ChRuncey OIcOtt.
The annual engagement of Chauncey
Olcott began at the Columbia Theater
last night with the popular actor-siuger
in a new but characteristic play by The
odore Burt sayre, under the caption Of
"O'NenI of Derry" which, like most Of
Mr. Sayre's efforts, takes the form of a
paean 10 the greatness Of Irish character
without getting much real Irish character
into the thing at all The other necessary
adjunct is found i'm the succession Of
sweet songs introduced by Mr. Olcott,
forming perhaps the most enjoyable part
Of the entertainment.
The scene of the story is laid in old
Londonderry, where the governor Of the
town, Sir Graham Croft, has welded by
strategy. aided by some force, lady
whose heart has been given to Lawrence
Desmond, who is absent in France, en-
gagged I'm the martial matters of King
Louis. He returns to Ireland simutaBe-
ously with Bryan ONeill. another soldier
Of fortune. and in his endeavor TO meet
his lady love he involves the latter, who
has in the meantime CALAMITY fallen in
love with Kate FitZroy confidential friend
TO the governor wife, and thus takes
the center OF the stage relegating Des-
,mond TO obscurity so far as any active
pdrticipancy in the story is concerned.
There is much intrigue, many stirring
episodes. and hairbreadth escapes, with
the usual secret police and omnipresent
informer, and finally the matter is sim
plifed by the death of the governor by
a sudden visitation of Heaven I'm the shape
Of apopleXy, and all the lovers are united
and hurry away 10 sunny France. The
play is highly melodramatiC. with many
startling incidents being turned 10 good
action by the superior cunning and au-
dacity Of the hero, who is considerably
aided. however. by the fact that things
continually happened in the right way
and at the right time. The lines are full
OF the gush and blaTney supposed to be
characteristic Of the Celt notably Illus
/ trated in the scene depicting the hero up
tree. engaged in COnfab with the hero

ing she asked. Il was studying astron-

queried, and Just below your eyebrows

exposed to the fire is of the ne
cessary thickness not thin as
a wafer, that the body is one sol
id sheet of the finest polished

Then compare the number
of rivets and bolts used in the

about twice as many. They are
not as scarce as hens teeth"
