AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Quincy Adams Sawyer, Friday, May 10.
Most Successful Book Play.

There was much discussion in regard
to dramatizing Quincy Adams Sawyer
between the publishers and both those
who did and those who did not do the
dramatization. A theatrical manager,
who tried to secure the dramatic rights,
and might have had them if he lad not
insisted on having the dramatization
made his way, maintained that to make
a strong play from the book he would
introduce an entirely new and strong
melodramatic plot which was not in the
novel. He wanted to have some lost
wills, farm mortgages, city williams and
wronged girls, like all the other rural
plays. The publishers, however, main
tanned that there would be great adj
vantage in having dramatization that
followed the book closely-It would be
something new in more ways than one.
The result since the play has been be-
fore the public, the last ten seasons,
have proved the wisdom of their hold
ing to their views. The business has
been phenomenal throughout the whole
country.
The play has been well described by
one reviewer, who said Sweet as the
corn which is husked so realistically and
pure as New England air itself is the
story of Quincy Adams Sawyer The
adapter has strung together episodes
which are replete with distinct and ia
miliar characters, just the kind one ex-
poets to find at Mason's Corner, coun-
try town in Massachusetts where the
scenes are laid with natural and appro-
pirate stage environments. Every set
ting is an artistic success. The play
is happy blending of country humor
and pathos in which the simple, pure
charm Of the book is preserved"
1t has the sweetest love story ever
told, its comedy is genuine, and the
scenes in the little village os Mason's
Corner are true to life. At the Barre
,pera house Friday, May l6.-Adv.
