Comedy of the Play.

But the dramatic interests in the new
play were not important. They were
theatrical and .ather outmoded in feel
ing They did much to strengthen the
impression that the author must have
been an actor. II was the comedy Of
THE Outrageous Mrs. Palmer that
made It such a success. Mr.. Gribble had
studied the character OF the popular
actress most thoroughly and drawn her
with real truth TO nature. He had given
her witty lines 20 speak and most orig
inal and amusing things to do. And
Miss Young did them all with the skill Of
an artist. Undoubtedly there was back
Of her impersonation model to which
she seemed at times adhering assidu-
ously. But. nevertheless. there was the
illusion of naturalness In all she did.
The affectations and selfishness. the gen
crosby and petulance. the genuine af-
lection and simplicity Of her character
all these contradictory traits Miss Young
most convincngly dellneated. And She
did II moreover With such keen sense
of humor that the audience was In
roars OF laughter during all the lighter
scenes.

Miss Young's Performance.

Miss Young has improved vastly I'm re-
source and variety since she acted at
this same theatre several years ago In
"Eelieve Me. Xantippe." with John Bar
rymore. Now she is a delightful actress
OF comedy. Certainly nothing fresher
IN its fun has been seen here in a~iong
time. The Outrageous Mrs. Palmer"
= a worthy dramatic pendant to the
musical atmosphere of Enter Madame.
For the sake Of his study Of the role
% this most amusing and original
actress the public will readily forgive
Mr. Gribbie the mechanics of his serious
scenes
Henry +. Dlxey added his own humor
TO the role Of rather lightly sketched
dramatist. and Miss Miriam Elliott. Miss
Eugene Blair. Miss Minna Gale Haynes
and Miss May Collins were an I'M
commonly expert quartet Of actresses.
Herbert Standing. Jr.. was amusing as
the second husband OF the actress. which
seemed q character real enough 10 be
drawn from life. Franklin George and
Raymond Hackett we're others In an adj
mirable performance "The Outrageous
Mrs. Palmer Is another one of the
genuine Successes in the small number OF
the present season. II Is said that Lady
Tree has already bought the rights OF the
play for London.

The Bad Record

The hens I stole long years
ago have ruined my career, fol
everywhere I chance to go their
phantoms reappear. Oh, men
forget the things I've done, oi
which I may be proud and they
ignore the fame I've won COM
peting with the crowd. They
spread the tale with tongues and
pens, send it from group to
group: "This is the man who
stole the hens from Widow
Whitesmith's COOP" A hundred
widows l have helped when they
were out of luck; and hungry
orphans, when they yelped, from
me could draw a buck. I've
made point of being good, for
one sin to atone, but all in vain,
my crime has stood triumphant
and alone. The weary years
have slipped away, in units and
in tens, and still | hear my
neighbors say, "He swiped a
widows hens" Some day a
will rise above my
pulseless breast; the legend on
it, surmise, will say I've joined
the blest; but men will on that
granite gaze and idly stroke
their wens, and say, "How hol-
low is such praise! He pinched
4 widows hens"

WOMEN WILL NOT QUIT.
Leaders Here to Push Fight Harde,
Than Ever.

Suffrage leaders have not abandoned
hope of action by the Vermont Iegis-

The National Woman's Party an
nounced yesterday that Gov. Clements s
refusal to call the state assembly in
special session would not be accepted
as final and that even larger delega-
tions than had been planned would
call on Senator Harding, the republi-
can presidential nominee, at Marion
on July %, Ito impress him with the
necessity of carrying out the suffrage
plank and pledges of his party and
enfranchising the women of the ma
tion in time for the coming elec-
tions."
