Drama
Provincetown Players Give
Fine Thrill in a
Sea Play
By Haywood Broun

The Provincetown Players have
opened their new season and their new
theatre with good bill of one act plays.
Where the Cross Is Made" by Eu-
gene O'Neill, is among the best things
which the Players have done. Some
sort of inspector and three policemen
were unable to damage this thrilling
drama on Saturday night. The police
men and the inspector came to see
about the wires or something like that,
and though no amateur actor can talk
as loudly rs a policeman the thrill in
herent in O'Neill's play cut through
the din. Even the three policemen
seemed inadequate protectors when the
lights turned green and the ghostly
seamen thumped up the stairs with the
treasure chest.
Properly speaking, there were no sea
men. They and the treasure, too, were
only insane fancies in the mind Of Cap
tain Isaiah Bartlett, who came home
crazed from the So lth Seas. The days
on the desert island must have done it
but at first he talked so convincingly
OF he treasure that his son believed in
1t as hrmly as he did. Later the boy
doubted and then disbelieved utterly
but he found that it was hard to fight
free of the dream. He burned the map
with It's cross and arranged to have the
old sea captlin taken away to an in
sane asylum. It was too late. When
the frenzy of the old sea captain be-
came so great that he saw the lights of
the treasure ship and heard the steps
OF his mates upon the stairs the bow
saw and heard. The delusion was his
inheritance.
The figures of the seamen who exist
only in the mind of the captain and his
son are boldly introduced on the stage,
We sat so close that there was little
visual illusion, but the sweep of the
story and the exceptional skill with
which the scene of the deiusion is writ
ten made us distinctly fearful of the
silent dead men who walked across the
stage. The telling performance of
Hutchinson Collins as the captain and
OF Ida Rauh as the daughter who did
not see or hear the stalking fancies
served to heighten the effect of an ex-
ceedlngly thrilling piece Of work. If
the only haven for short plays of this
sort is the small theatre around the
big theatres and the street with the
chewing gum signs.
OF lesser Importance, but decidedly
gleeful, is "Gee-R Rusalem!" a farce. by
Florence Kiper Frank, which deals in
an amusing End original manner with
the social status Of the American Jew
Jean Robb and Norma Millay were
both effective in this play.
usually, "The Princess Marrieg the
Page" is the finest thing on the bill,

CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS
CALLED TO GREAT BEYOND

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June s.
Former Vice President Charles w.
Fairbanks died list night at his home
in this city. The cause of his death
was given as intestinal nephritis. An
attack of apopleXy sustained a few
days ago fastened the end.
All the members of Mr.. Fairbanks
family were at his bedside when
death came with the exception of his
son, Major Richard Fairbanks, who is
now with the United States forces in
France.
Sketch of His Career
The distinction of birth in a log
cabin, which illustrious Americans of
an earlier day commonly had, was also
that of former Vice President Fair
banks. 1t is probable that he was
the last of American statesmen to
have been born in one of these hum
BILE cabins.
The one where he was born on May
IL, 1852. was at Unionville Center
Ohio. 1t came dangerously near be
ing the funeral pyre for the future
statesman. When Mr.. Fairbanks was
a boy of four, his father built a new
home, and the one-room log cabin was
used as a carpenter shop. One day
