NEW YORK. Dec. 27.--"Pru-
nella, or Love in a Dutch Gar
den." A queer name for a play.
A queer little play back of the
name, too. No manager In New
York, except Winthrop Ames,
would have dreamed of produc-
ing it. And when the art-encour-
aging and Acknowledging Mr..
Ames did produce it, at his Little
theater, many of the critics as
sured him, on behalf of the pop
ulace, that "Prunella" was of far
too cobwebby fabric for New
York playgoers.
Prunella is little maiden who
lives with three prim aunts and
number of servants in the old
house with the Dutch garden.
Prunella's mother ran away with
gardener, Frenchman, and
never came back. Only Prunella
came--a little bundle, left at the
door. Her aunts seek to guard
her from her mothers fate---from
errant love.
But all in vain. A troupe of
strolling players, headed by a
wicked, handsome Pierrot, passes
along the road. Pierrot scales
the hedge and finds Prunella. He
fascinates her, but one kiss
frightens her so that she flees
from him into the house. But at
