MIRACLE PLAY IN LONDON
Two Thousand Players and 700
Singers at the Olympia.
LRy Cahle 10 Tte TrIbun, !

London, Dec. 23.-Professor Rein
hardt's miracle play at the Olympia has
been the biggest show ever witnessed IN
London. The auditorium was trans
formed into a Gothic cathedral modelled
after that Of Cologne with majestic col
umns and stained glass, a huge crucifiI
and tabernacle and with enormous doors
through which mountains and blue sky
could be seen.
More than two thousand players in
medieval Rhineland costume were
massed in religious professions and cere-
monies, and seven hundred singers and
musicians supple accompaniment TO
the wordless play from Humperdinck's
scores.
There was q sumptuous setting of dec
| orative spendor, with a wonderful illu-
sion that everything was tho real thing.
| The statues were plaster, not paste
! board; there was metal in the armor,
| tiers, warriors, maids Of honor and &C.
clesiastics were arrayed in actual furs,
velvets, silks and embroideries
The stage management Of the process
! sions and crowds was marvel OF or
ganization, sand the mystery play itself
was most impressive, with a splendid
effect of stage fire, rapid succession Of
| incidents and an abundance Of move
| ment, variety and pageantry.
1t recounted the dream of d nun of
her adventures at court and camp be-
fore her reawakening in the cloisters.
Other leading characters were a knight,
& troubadour and q lady Of mystery.
Nile. Tronha Nova was the most com
mandng figure as the dancing nun. Max
Pallenberg was excellent as a tragic
comedian and Douglas Payne made a
stalwart knight, in and out of the sad
die.
The music for the dance measures and
the children's chorus was most attrac-
tive. and there were impressive process
sional marches and joyous Christmas
anthems.

Paris, Dec. 23.-The upshot OF the Par-
liamentary debates which ended In a re-
luctant approval of the Franco-German
Morocco treaty has caused a merely
temporary relief Of tension between
France and Germany. and unfortunately
shows that any final settlement OF the
differences between the two nations Is
as far off now as at any time since lSn.
Meanwhile the internal situation in
France is causing no little uneasiness on

Socialist Deputies under tho leadership
Of Jean Jaures, who systematically
strives 10 honeycomb and undermine
