THE Red Poppy" a new french

Inc Hcd Ioppyf a new fEenCu
melodrama in three acts. was pre-
sented at the Playhouse last night.
In some aspects the play is a bit
disappointing. To say the play
hasn't merit and is not clever in
parts would be 20 do II an injustice.
It's cast Is excellent, even though
there is a suggestion Of the English
about the Partisan characters at
time. Miss Estele Winwood's hand
ling OF the leading role was superbly
gripping. The play is typically
French, but It ends with an unsat-
isfacory impression. a feeling OF in
completeness that leaves much in
the way of future possibilities 20 the
imagination.
The passions as they are felt by
the habitues OF the Paris under
world are given full sway. The
author places the ethics and fearless
ways Of the dancing girls and
apaches Of the Paris dives on the
same level with the idle and
coodled.
Claire Is the beautiful wife OF
Prince Sergius Saratoff. Her life has
been shrouded in mystery and is the
talk Of her fashionable Partisan
friends. Her actions are the cause
for much speculation among the
elite, especially after n newspaper
man has said that a woman he has
seen in The Red Poppy" a Paris
bright light dive. resembles her. As
a matter of fact, Claire has come
up from the underworld. which
holds irristible lure for her. The
action Of the first act lags somewhat
but there Is action enough in the
second and third.
Here the writer has endeavored
TO give an impression Of life as II
IS among the habitues OF the Paris
underworld. haunt of the Apache
and his woman" In this den ap-
pears Claire, accompanied by an un-
sophiscated girl friend who has
of the romantic in her
and who IS high in the social scale.
ONLY an hour before Claire had bid
den her Prince husband, who Is go
ing on a trip. goodbye. Hence her
ability TO appear in her favorite
haunt. The Red Poppy" She has
conceived a passionate love for Fer
nando. who frequents the dive. He
thinks she is a servant who comes
TO the den for entertainment. Plans
are laid for him with the aid of
Claire. 10 rob the house in which
she lives. Fernando, in melo-dra- |

Princess home at midnight, and
finds her arrayed in all her hnery

everything and go with him, when
DeCroy. the Princes secretary enters
the room intent on stealing the
princess Jewels. A fight ensues In
which Fernando Is killed by DeCroy'
