desisted from calling for more only
out of sympathy and with regard for
the physical limitations of the per-

AT Cripple Creek. which is on the
boards at the Academy this week. is a
real thriller telling of the west when
gun play was one of the principal pas
times of the day, and such things as
taking the heroine away from the hero
and throwing a little child from preci-
pice are mere incidents. Fortunately the
child is caught by good" Indian.
The play is in four acts. The hero. Joe
Mayfield is the owner of mine when
he has named The Last Dollar. Mar

fuses to give up his possession of the

Indian.
There is plenty of comedy. most Of
which Is furnished by an old plantation
character and a dark-eyed hoyden. f.

pealing character in the play is that OF

There is nothing deep and nothing
daring in Getting a POLISH nothing
doubtful or distressing, nothing fearful
or tiresome. 1t IS just May Irwin with
a series of comical situations and say
lngs and company efficient enough in
all particulars to bring her work into due
prominence. There were those who
would like to have heard Miss Irwin
sing in'her own way even more of the
ancient songs which she revived appar-
emily under protest, and there were some
who, regardless of her comfort, would
have dared tempt her to dance just a wee
