ST. Elmo Next Week.

Dramatizing a popular novel re-
suits either in a marked success or
pronounced failure according to the
merit of the dramatist and the spirit
in which he approaches his work
Some masters of technique regard IN ,
book merely as an inspiration and
disregarding the sentiments of the
author place their own valuation up
on character and influences with the
result that play is produced which
antagonizes the admirers of the novel
It was with no such purpose that
Neil Twomey approached the drama
tiZation of Augusta }. Evans's 50
Elmo" He saw in the book a story
OF life in the south told as only Il
southern writer could tell it. He per
ceived in the character of St. Elmo
a complex psychology that would tax
to the utmost mis- technical resources
and literary skill. Thoroughly i'm
bued with the vast possibilities of
his hero from a dramatic point of
view. he has carefully TefTained from
altering the type as drawn by the
author and has labOred earnestly and
with excellent results to reproduce
exactly the character as originally
drawn. It was impossible to improve
upon the work of the creator of s.
Elmo and his effort has been direct
ed toward reproduction and realiza-
ton of this most fascinating central
figure. a unique dramatic type which
gains in power through contrast with
others in the play.
Mr.. Twomey's st Elmo" will be
seen at the opera house on Saturday
next, matinee and nigh, when Nj.
Twcmey will be seen in the title role
of st. Elmo.
