Apparently the play. presented twice be-

charm.

with her bargain In real Adirondack
sables," and her laughable depletion of
chorus girl life, won round after round
of applause.
In speaking of the hard work of the
average chorus lady" Patricia says,
briefly quoted, It's the smile that's the
hardest part, take it from me. You've
got to stand on one toe. with the other
foot pointing to a quarter-to-siX. and look
as pleased as the cat that just ate the
canary" There's humor and slang and
a tinge of pathos in those lines. and the
same is true of everything Patricia says.
Patricia has a heart of gold and "a firm
grip on home and mother that prevent
her ever confusing good and bad. This
sophistication and strength of character
she uses successfully in foiling the at
tempts Of a wealthy young devotee of
the race track, Dick Crawford. to run her
young sister Nora. also in the chorus.
But this is accomplished at the sacrifice
of her fiance. Dan Mallory. who is led to
believe her gone TO the bad when. in
reality, she is merely shielding Nora. OF
course, everything is adjusted in the end,
and Patricia. the lady of gauze and tin
sci and footlights is in the seventh heaven
of delight as she leads her Dan 10 the

Miss Stahl has made SO much of her
part as Patricia O'Br.en and has been
weighed i'm the balance and not found
wanting so frequently for the past two
years that there is scarcely aught to say
other than that her work las not de-
Perforated. Her company IS approx

her such excellent support last season.

Young. Buffalo in THE Sheriff of Angel

exciting plays. is the attraction at the
New Academy this week. The opening
performance last night was received with
approval by a capacity house. The play
represents the time when killing a man in
the far west was regarded less seriously
than now. Anything to cause a thrill
seemed to be Mr. Blaney's principal idea
In writing this play. The display of fire
arms and knives plays an important part
The scenes are picturesque, and realism

A N U S E N E NTs .
Belasco.

Gloom impenetrable and unrelieved is
the dominant characteristic of Mrs.
Fiske's new play. salvation Nell" AS
a study of the strangely and fiercely in
habited social wildernesses which are
well known to exist in New York it has
ar ,istic claims which cannot be sighted.
The pictures of crowded streets and reek-
ing barrooms are 50 infinitely studied
and so faithfully reproduced that adj
miration must be accorded the crafts
manShip. however repulsive the mind
may find the subject. The play may
serve high philanthropie purpose in
calling attention to the work that is be-
ing done among people whose lot seems
wellnigh hopeless. 1t portrays the ef-
forts of the Salvation Army with dignity
and sympathy. 1t may be that this was
the principal objec, Mrs Fiske had in
producing q play whose interest. so far
as plot and characters are concerned. is
in no way unusual. Having played many
parts in Il manner which leaves her Sc
cure in artistic prestige, it would not
be rema rkable if she had decided to test
the potency of the stage a great moral
and educational influence. Having doubt
less made d close and sincere study or the
work her play discusses o. 1t is perhaps
only due that her judgment be accepted
as to whether the shock to the finer SEN
sibilities inevitably administered is com
pensated by the awakening of public
thought and interest which may follow
Pope's celebrated line, THE proper study
of mankind is man. is here interpreted
Internationally in its broadest appica-
ton.
Regarded as drama apart from horta-
tory purposes the play relies on the mar
velous fidelity with which scenes and
character types are depicted. No detail
is neglected. no truth. however unpleas-
ant. is disguised or palliated. The story
is simple and piteous plea for the hep
lessness of degrade alton; scant thread OF
story about conditions SO debased that a
love which struggles up amid the darkness
into warped and stunted being seems a
triumphant regeneration.
y fine piece OF acting is done by Hol-
brook Blinn. as the drunken outcast.
whose brutal nature is conquered at last
by the devotion of Salvation Nell.
