Maeterlinck's BIuebird---An Interpretation
By DR.. A. P. Drucker.

! is an exception, since he would fain
break through the wall that separates
his kind from man
By the advice of the Fairy Berylune,
Tyltyl and Mytyl first take their way
to the Land of Memory, where they
hope to obtain from their ancestors
some information regarding the Blue
Bird.
Here the children can learn nothing
of the bird they seek. Suddenly they
see in a cage on the wall of their dead
grandparents cottage a black bird, and
ask what kind of bird it is. Directly
they speak of it, this bird comes to life
and assumes a blue color 1t is not
the real Blue Bird, however, not the
Soul that the modern man may achieve;
and hence. when it is taken out of the
land of Memory, it perishes.-a symbol
that the spirit of the Past cannot ami
mate the present-that the dead cannot
influence the living.
Knowledge and Light.
Tyltyl and Mytyl are now directed
by light. the symbol of knowledge, to
the Palace of the Night Ignorance and
superstition). All the terrOrs of Ma
ture. disease. ghosts, malign influences,
pestilence. war and famine. are impris-
oned here; also good elements are
there,-all in an aboriginal state.
Night. as the oldest of them ALL IS
their keeper. Here. so Light tells the
children, may the Blue Bird. the prim-
tive World-Soul, be found. The Cat,
hypOcritical and treacherous as ever.
runs on ahead and forewarns Night
as to who is coming and on what
errand.
Tyltyl, instructed by Light, actually
compels Night to surrender to him the
keys of her Palace One door after
another he opens, for with the bringing

DEATH OF BOY CAUSED
DEATH OF MOTHER
Old Timer Recalls Tragedy Many Years
Ago, to Which Dying Mexican Re-
Gently Made Confession.

Considerable interest has been aroused
in FL Paso among cattlemen in the re-
port from Van Horn, Texas. appearing
in The Herald, Friday afternoon, in
which Il was stated that an aged Mex
lean. who died at Coyamma, Mex, had
confessed to the murder of Tom Merrell
and wife.
The murder was committed about
Christmas in 1888, according to G. H.
Winn. now of FL Paso, but who lived
near the Merrell's and who was boy
hood playmate of the man. They We're
reared about six miles north of Dallas
According to Winn, the murder was
committed about 80 miles south from
Van Horh, an AK being used. The
death of young Merrell is stated to have
caused the death short time later of his
mother, and the deed so nreyed on the
mind of Jackie Merrell, brother of
Tom. that he became mentally deranged.
He recovered, however, and now lives
near Dallas.
Mr.. VIM has written to officials at
Coyam1na, Mex, asking for particulars
of the confession of the Mexican. VIM
owned a ranch near Merrell's at the
time of the murder.

Unfortunately for them. it is the Cat
who this time assumes their guidance.
To mislead the children and without
the knowledge of Light, he takes Tyl-
tyl and Mytyl secretly TO the forest.
Here, in the last, fastness of the ele-
mental Soul, not only the animals, but
the very trees and vines beset the
children with threats and violence
They resent mans presumption and
wish to destroy him. Only the Dog is
faithful to his little god He even
deserts his own kind, preferring the
tyranny which tanned him in service to
the fear-haunted freedom of the forest
and his wOlf-state there But so fierce
is the wrath of the forest jewellers, of
the trees especially. who are unable to
forget that they were once gods. to
whom man rendered homa ge-puny

to his use-so fierce is their wrath.
that the children would have been
killed but for the violent help OF the
Dog and the timely arrival of Light.
The Dream Bird of the Future.
After these futile attempts in the
Past. the children turn to seek their
dream bird in the Future And here
again a theory that is a favorite with
the author. is incorporated into the
play: the theory of the Predestined.
Every soul is born into the world in
order to do, to accomplish something.
In this Kingdom of the Future, in the

M AETERLINCK's fairy drama.
EE5 1.-The Blue Bird" which is to
0'A be produced in this country in
a short time, has enjoyed great popu-
larity in Europe, and most of all-in
Russia. Fifty-two companies are pro-
ducing this play in the latter country.
At first glance 1.-the Blue Bird" would
seem to have little in it to. appeal to
the present day dramatic taste, and
still less. of all Maeterlinck's plays, to
recommend it to the Russians. And
yet, this fascination it exercises over
the cars people is not so peculiar
after all, considering the Slavonic bent
toward mysticism, the Russians love
for the Observation-Disclosures plainly
evidenced in the marvellous treasure
house of their fairy-and folklore.
No other of Maeterlincks dramas is
so completely representative Of him as
is "The Blue Bird" In it we find his
search after the Awakening OF the
Soul, abstractly stated in the Treas
ure of the Humble;" here, too, We
have his conception of Immortality; his
idea concerning Wisdom and Destiny;
all woven together into a bouquet Of
Old-fasrioned Flowers that receive an
unfrnagined charm from the grace and
most of all, the novelty of the arrange
ment
Founded on Dream.
The story of the "Blue-Bird" is
founded on a dream, combination Of
childish night vision>and an old, old
fairy story. In conception 1T is not I'M
like Hauptmann's 'tKannele," where
the little girls dream of her death is
presented on the stage. Here it is the
dream Of the Woodcutter's children,
Tvltyl and Mytyl. of their search for
the Blue Bird, which is the dream
counterpart of TyltlyIs turtle dove.
Into this dream of theirs comes the
Fairy Berylune. in the guise of their
neighbor Dame Berlingot, and tells
them Ga favorite theory of Maeter-
linck's) that every object has a soul
akin to mans, though we human be-
ings have lost the power to recognize
/ it. To restore this power to the chill
dren temporarily. Berylune lends Tyl-
tvl her magical diamond and with it
sends brother and sister out in search
| of the Blue Bird. The Blue Bird rep
resents the great primal soul Of all
things. shared also by man before his
fal1-before he ate of the Tree of
Knowledge, and thus lost his spiritual
life. In their quest the children are
accompanied by the Dog, the Cat
Bread. Milk and Sugar, Fire, water,
and Light.
| Now the elements and organic be
ings having originally had soul OF
the equal of mans. cannot brook the
superiority he has arrogated to him
! self by the help of knowledge They
are. therefore, against him, with the
exceptions Of Light and the Dog The
! Cat especially dislikes and distrusts
him. because it is its nature to do so
! as its soul is treacherous- Bread, Sugar
and Milk, typifying mans material
wants, are part OF the time Wlth' par
| of tho time against, the children; since
man in his quest is often swayed by
material demands, and other time:
rises above them. Light alone of al
- elements stands by man; for 1t has
ever been venerated by him as the
symbol of knowledge, truth and en-
| lightenment, and thus treated with re
| spect. And among the animals the dog

reconciling mind and heart, spirit and
reason, completing the cycle and bring
ing the Kingdom of Light and the
of man.
Mytyl ends The drama must be
rounded out, however, and for this rea-
son the author tells what occurred In
the WOodcutter's house the following
morning, when the children awoke. To
Tyltyl, in his bewilderment, the turtle
dove now appears 10 be the Blue Bird
of his dream. and when the little In
valid child of neighbor Berlingot asks
for it, he gives it to her. As soon as
she RECEIVERS her health. however. and
is able to walk and talk, she loses the
Blue Bird also; because only small chill
dr. en- share with the animals and plants
and elements the primitive Soul, which
takes to flight as soon as Reason comes
to power within man,-at least until
the future will accede to the Emporium
ing of Light and yield up to man as
his heritage forever this Blue Bird, the
primal World-Soul.
