ADJUSTMENTS
"The Rose of Kildare"

Fiske OHara, who is favorably known to Birmingham theatregoers. appeared at the Jefferson theatre last night in The Rose of Kildare" an Irish play of the romantic type. Mir O'Hara has been seen here before at the Bijou theatre, where he built up a large following. This sea- son his management felt justified in put ting him before the public on more am- bilious footing It is to be regretted by MT O'Hara s friends that the play chosen for him is not more worthy of his abil- ities. He is a graceful actor, with a win ming personality and his voice is well adapted to the sentimental ballads he sings.
 ''The Rose of Kildare is intended to make a very strong appeal to the Irish heart. The scenes are, of course, laid in the land of Tom Moore. and the hero is a young Irish leader in the period of 179S, when the sons of Erin were in a rebellious mood and the country was overrun by English. soldiers. Gerald O'Donnell is the young chieftain and he is portrayed by MT. OHara. The efforts of the English soldiers to capture O'Don- nell are foiled at every turn in ways that seem absurdly easy, while Lady Moya Fitzpatrick, the Rose of Kildare lends her lover efficient aid
 The play is beautifully staged and the company for the most part seemed equal to the requirements put upon it's mem bers, although there were times when some of the. players did not appearfto be thoroughly coached in their lines. The plot has possibilities but the construction of the play is so awkward that some of the best situations fall fiat. The.clumsy devices by which the English soldiers are outwitted would put a tax on the credulity even of persons who are accus- toned to consider the average English, man astonishingly stupid
 MT. o'Hara evidently does the best ,he can with the material at hand. His songs were received with much enthusiasm Hast night and the reception accorded the tstar was very cordial.
