Little Minister" and one point OF in

has of the peculiar whimsical charm that
inspires his later work. 1t differs in the
simpler appeal of the plot which relies
for dramatic effect on the contrast In
social station between Lady Babbie and
her assumed character as the gypsy, and
the theme is only saved from being trite
and tawdry by the canny delicacy Of
Mr.. Barrie's sentiment and the acute

NATIONAL.
"stsp TAief."

Into the three acts OF Stop Thief"
the attraction at the National this
week, Carlyle Moore has crowded an
exuberance Of invention and ingenious
complication that keeps his audience
in condition Of almost sidesplit-
ting laughter from curtain to cur
tain. The uproarious fun of the situa-
tons is increased, moreover. by the skill
full play Of company which includes
three of the most delightful farceurs to
be seen in many a long days journey.
The piece Is the busiest of busy
farces. A wedding is about to be, and
the house is full Of wedding presents.
The bridegroom is revealed as a klep-
tomaniac, and so is the prospective
father-in-law. There is a new lady's
maid in the house and 1t soon develops
that she is a crook with q pal, her
lover. who shortly arrives on the
scene. tempted by the wedding pres
ents. With the real thieves looting
the premises and the kleptomsniacs
self-conscious and afraid OF them
selves, with the gentle mother trying
to conceal her husbands infirmity and
a chum protecting the bridegroom from
similar discovery, the incidents pile up
rapidly to a hilariously exciting eli
max. The climax itself is a remark
ably successful contrivance Of ludi-
crous near-serious suspense. main
tanned at the height of Its effect for
some moments entirely by the facial
expressions, attitudes, and motions OF
the actors, with scarcely a word
spoken.
The staging, by Sam Forrest. provides
an attractive setting and the action Is
adjusted to properly rapid tempo. hurting
the spectator from one farcical absurdity
to another with a speed that leaves him
breathless, but laughing TIL the tears
come Frank Bacon and Percy Ames,
as the two kleptomaniacs, contribute
comic character parts that are a Joy TO
the judicious onlooker. the refinement Of
this method creating plausible personali-
ties OF true comedy value. and lifting
the piece considerably above the usual
farcical level So also Miss Ruth Chester
as the mother, slightly deaf, gives q
natural and nicely shaded impersonation
with much charm, especially pleasing
when one realizes that 1t is only in the
hundret1th case that such n part would
be read otherwise than broadly and with
low comedy effects.
Miss Mary Ryan. remembered for her
delightful work in .'The Fortune Hunter"
with Thomas Ross. appeared in this play
to less advantage, being cast as the
lady's maid crook. a part with no special
opportunities. Opposite her Sam Hardy
plays Justify and with good effect As the
male thief. Another familiar face Is
that of William II. Boyd, the Blackie
Daw of Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford.
Miss Edna Hibbard Is charming in the
small part of Joan Carr. and James c.
Marlowe displays good comic abilities as
the detective.
The play is presented by Cohan and
Harris, who veraciously announce II .'for

alias "oh. I say" adapted from the
French "Oh. Oh, Deiphine," Of Keroul
and Barre, by Sydney Blow and Douglas
Leagre, with music by Jerome d. Kern
and presented by the Messrs. Schubert at
the Belasco Theater for the flrst time In
Washington last night. There is laughter
every minute from the time the curtain
first rises until Il falls on the final scene;
there is musio-such as It is-in super
abundance: there are girls. numerous and
good -lookingf there are sundry dances
gracefully executed; there are gorgeous
gowns with a liberal display OF feminine
anatomy, and this ensemble constitutes
an entertainment which keeps the audi
ence chained to their seats for nearly
three hours. Also there Is the shadow
of a plot
sIdonie de Mornay, a gay vaudeville
artist. most liberal in the bestowal Of
her affections, has allowed Marcel Du-
rand. Jules Portal. and Henri Chats all

their attentions and money upon her.
Marcel marrfes Suzanne. Portals daugh-
ter, and Henri is his best man. Just as
Marcel and Suzanne are about to start
on their honeymoon, Sidonie arrives on
the scene: Marcel. in order to escape un-
pleasant explanations to Suzanne. per-
suades Henri to assume the role Of bride
groom, and this little trick gives rise to
a series of more or less interesting and
intensely laughable complications. In the
end, OF course, the snari is disentangied
to everybody's satisfaction
Cecil Cunningham is a stunning 81
donie, magnificent of figure. and with
very handsome face. In every respect
she looks the part she assumes. acts IL
brilliantly. dances with much grace, and
sings fairly well. She made a decided
hit with the audience. Alice Yorke is a
chic little bride, good to look upon. and
dainty in q filmy bathroom
costume mot the only one, of course, in
which she arrays HERSELF. She has quite
an agreeable voice and sings well. Clara
Palmer, as Claudine. Sidonie's maid.
makes a fine impression with her bril-
liant brunette beauty, her vfvacious act
ing and agile dancing. and Jenreys
Lewis, always good In whatever she un-
dertakes, Is most amusing as Suzanne's
mother.
The men in the cast can't sing much.
but they make up for IL by their inex-
pressibly droll acting. Taylor Holmes, In
the part of Marcel. carries the chief bur-
den of the fun-making, and Is ably as
sisted by Walter Jones as Jules Portal,
and Joseph Phillips as Henri Joseph
Herbert, in the part of Buzot. manager
Of Sidonie's company. who finally grad
yates as her husband. completes the
quartet of comedians.
All the minor parts are capably cared
for. The chorus comes up to every ex
pectation in vocal and terpsichorean re-
gard, and the female contingent is ex-
ceptionally pretty. The play is staged by
the Messrs. Shubert with their usual
lavishness and good taste both as to
scenery and other accessories.
