THE DRAMA
Lew WaIIaCe'S "Ben-Hur" at the
New Amsterdam.

After twelve years OF wandering the pill
grim play returns TO the place of its first
tri,lmphs. Not that "Ben-H Hur'' Is scenical
Iy precisely as Il was at the Broadway
Theatre in 1899. Times have increased. and
so has this play. There are twenty horses
now racing in the chariot scene. instead OF
eight. and five chariots instead of two. The
lights that used to go out on the lighting
galleys after their crash In mid-sea now
stay on TO illumne the sinking of the great
war boat which slowly settles and disap-
pears beneath the waves.
These are the principal changes; these
and an organ which more or less appro-
priately accompanies the choral scenes and
is heard here and there throughout the ac-
ton.
"Bcn-Hur" is a Popular play, as the book
from which II has been made was always
a popular one. Its easy poetry Of scene
and situation glides into the senses without
startling them. No traditions are broken:
none forgotten. Ben-Hur loves and Is
loved. He is tempted and falls, and re-
covers himself. He ennobles himself
through humility and lowly work, and
finally trlumphs In the most thrilling and
, romantic Of ways. And all ends with Il
Great White Light that streams in from
the wings TO bless every one and shock no
| one.
Now that nero wonders OF scenic crafts
msnship do not absorb audiences as they
did twelve years ago. this play of the ORR
ent may seem a little behind the times IN
It's dramatic flavor II will probably be
looked upon more in the light of specta-
Ill ,Io x.sfn -
regarded in London, when IL goes to the
Drury Lane next April. Meanwhile IT has
all the elements which are populsr-or, at
least, which are always referred 10 as pop
ular-thrills, sentiments, scenes Of obvious
beauty and happy ending.
The acting Of Richard Buhler in the
character OF judah, son OF Ithamar, prince
OF the house of Hur, was high flown. unreal
and perhaps in keeping with the spirit Of
the play. He was a splendid looking Ben
Hur and had spirit and earnestness. The
part of Simonides, the onetme slave, later
merchant prince of Antioch, was acted in
the manner Of the old tragic school, but
also with the authority of that school, by
Oscar Adye, who has been brought to this
country from the Drury Lane Theatre,
London, especially for this part. Esther, a
harmless little maid, whom II Ben-Hur
had not been booked to love he might have
scorned, was interpreted in the tone of
pink and white by Cecil Kern. Adelaide
Nowak as Iras, the temptress succeeded
well in bringing 10 life both in appearance
and suggestion, the Egyptian goddesses Of
the antique colored hieroglyphs. Her brill
liant makeup and her jewelled costume, to-
az With In, har
ance from the usual stage representations
of vouptuousness, made Miss Novaks the
best character work in the play.

verse, celebrating the spread in the United
States Of the German Christmas legends
and depicting Santa Claus as somewhat ir-
ritated and offended by the newer popu-
larity Of the Christkindl and the Christ
mas tree. The idea Of competition be-
tween the two sets OF Christmas traditions
Is cleverly worked out and the little play
is notable in that IL preserves genuine
