Academy.

There are few dramas Of which the
public never seems to tire. but laughs
and cries over year in and year out
generation after generation. East
Lynne at the Academy this week, ia
one of them. and has been for more than
a half century, The large audience
which turned out to see the play last
evening seemed to attest that 1t has lost
none OF its perennial popularity. and the
close attention paid throughout the per-
Torrance may be accepted as a proof
Of the capability OF the company.
The price Of jealousy Is the basic prin-
ciple on which the plot is founded.
Through the insinuations Of Sir Francis
Levison, former lover, Lady Isabelle,
wife Of Archibald Carlyle, is led to be-
lieve her husband untrue to her. She
elopes with Levison.
After Carlyle has secured q divorce and
married Barbara Hare, the woman Of
whom his wife was jealous, Lady Isa-
belle. repenting Of her mistake and torn
by desire to see her child, secures
employment at her home, disguised
as Nine. Vine. Her child dies, and q
few days later she also dies, after first
hearing her husbands words of for
giveness.
Mary Emerson portrays the role of
Lady Isabelle creditably and according
to its traditions. Ten Eyck Clay, as
Archibald Carlyle, is also quite good.
Emil Collins, as Mr.. Dill: True Powers,
as Cornelia Carlyle. and Walter Sher-
wood. az Lord Mount Severn, gave their
best ability to their respective roles.

Columbia.

The sight Of George Barber lying on
the stage with a green crazy quilt thrown
over his pretended lifeless form threw the
audience at the Columbia Theater last
night into inordinate spasms Of laughter.
The play was Bobby Burnit,'' and Mr..
BARRIERS comic imitation Of corpse was
the pinnacle of a long range Of billowy
laughter. 1t seems incredible to think
that make-believe murdered man would
be SO funny. But that's the way with
stage effects, and something new must be
POUNDS to make the multitude laugh.
This odd scene is the turning point in
the story Of Bobby Burnt who squand-
ers his patrimony $4,000 at a clip. and
whose fortunes Immediately turn for the
better when big Bin Bates, the role as
sumed by Mr.. Barber. lies down and
plays dead. The reason is that an un-
pleasant person named Clarence Smythe.
thinking he has really murdered big Bin
Bates, signs away 400 shares of valuable
stock. which give Bobby toe hold in
the corporation he had lost. After that
the gold dust" piles up so fast he is al
most choking to death with it, when he
finally asks Agnes Elliston to marry him.
Agnes in real life Is Miss Frances Nelson,
and if she were on the stage more, the
play would be even more pleasing than
1t is.
This Bobby Burnt play is full of
men. 1t is masculine to the core and the
three lonesome women scarcely have a
thing to do. However, to relieve the
dreadful masculinity, the men are always
talking about the girls and there is a
grand exhibition of caressing at the final
curtain, when two sets of double hearts
beat as two single ones in various por-
tons of the stage.
This lightsome vein of description is
chosen as an expression of the light
hearted laughter which follows the actors
as they show how easy it is to separate
young man and his money and how
joyful it is for him to get it all back
again in the last act. Bobby Burnt is
played by Edward II. Robins, who stands
behind his rapid-fire battery of lines with
considerable enthusiasm and seems to get
as much fun out of 1t as any one.
The audience last night took keen de-
light in the character work Of Stanley
James. who seems to know exactly how
to put rich humor into the role of q
crusty old man. His role Is an impor-
tant one this week, and 1t has the added
advantage of being on the right side Of
the argument. Carson Davenport plays
David AppelfOrd, a remarkably unpleas-
ant character, and Mr.. Davenport sue
ceeds admirably in carrying out the idea.
John M Kline. growing more and more in
favor with Columbia audiences, plays the
part OF q political gangster and boss
true to life. George Darrell, as Silas
Trimmer. is quite melodramatic In his
acting. Miss Aline McDermott, as Nellie
Platt. one OF the three young women

And that shows how well the members of
the company met the responsibilities of
their roles 1t required Just such con-

company, and last nights performance
seemed to remove all doubts.

Izetta Jewel turned from the lighter and

the Vermont school teacher on a western
ranch, as capably as the leading man of
the company. 1t was her first opportu-
nifty to show emotional ability, and she
improved the chance, though her curls
seemed out of place for such a serious
minded school teacher as the book de-
scribes.
That trio of .cowboys-Nebraska, Honey

of refreshing respite from the tenseness
Of the story, and Robert LIE Sueur rs
Steve made the most Of his big scene in
the third act, laid in Horse Thief Pass.
Robert Deshon as Spanish Ed furnished
one of the excellent bits Of acting in the
piece. The character of the sneaking,
cattle-thieving Trampas lives so wildly
in the memory Of those who saw the Far
mum production Of 1.-THE Virginian" that
any one who attempts the role is bound
to suffer in contrast. Duncan Penwarden
is not an exception. Improvement is to
be expected as he becomes more familiar
with the role.
