THE WHITNEY.

While there is all the play or VII

nanextly rolled. In w. l.. Roberts on
the Bridge al Midnight the curren'
Offering in the Whitney, there are
new points in the production that or.
fer a pleasing contrast TO the general
run of melodrama. Homicide Is no
tably absent from any part In the
plot. Even at the finale. the villain
is merely ''pinched" off-stage.
A very tender ending is worked up
to when the blind mother, who has
been seeking her stolen daughter foi
years, at last discovers her In the
street waif who has been brought &c
her as an impostor by two designing
scamps trying to get the big reward
offered. 4 locket. carried for years
around little Reddy's neck, proves the
Identification. Gentle spectators were
swabbing their eyes all the way TO the
street after the curtain fell.
Baron Won Schulzberg, played by +
Daniel Layton, Is the best part in the
piece. II is reminiscent OF part
once played by Clay Clement in The
New Dominion" but was we'll done

baron Is poor. and comes to America
to keep curiosity shop. but finally
discloses his identity, after thwartine
many well.laid plot. and marries the
wealthy. aunt. which is as 1t should
be.
The big scene Is midnight view OF
the Chicago river with a jack-knife
bridge which opens and shuts and
from which one of the women charac
tiers Is thrown into the water. Some OF
the realism leaked out when the vic
TINS feet showed above the bank dur
ing the thrilling ante-rescue period
but we always thought that of the Chi
cago river anyway.
Carrie LeMoyne does the blind
mother well, and Miss Claudia White

vincing pair of villains.
