"As they assume the responsibility

BY HAROLD PHILLIPS.

Maxim Gorky's drama, 1.-THE
Lower Depths" was presented at
Polls last evening an the third
play in a series Of five by the
Moscow Art Theater Company.
1.-THE Lower Depths" is really
not a play in the sense Of en-
comprising complete unity in sew
eral hours. 1t is q peek at life
in the lower depths of the human
struggle; a series Of character
etchings, set in surroundings of
the most fearsome squalor. No
offering in the American roper
toire Of the Russian players, dur.
ing their year sojOurn here, has
so completely caught and en-
tranced the public as this one.
This is chiefly due, we suppose,
to its fearless realism in depict
ing types, to its trenchant and
pungent dialogue and to the fact
that none of its character is
minor. AS through a giant ka-
leidoscope one sees a dozen souls,
representing the heights of hope
and despair, in contacts that beg
gar description.
Gorky's masterpiece has been q
fixture with the Moscow players
since 1902. Need any play de-
mand the polished repetition Of
these long years. here is one that
does. Says oliver Saylor, author
Of 1.-THE Russian Theater" and
other books, and editor Of trans
lations of the Stanislavsky offer.
ings. in his preface:
1.-The Lower Depths IS not so
much a matter of utterable line
and accountable gesture as 1t IL
Of the intangible flow of human
souls in endlessly shifting con-
tact with one another. Awkard
but eloquent pauses and emphases,
the scarcely perceptible stress or
dulling Of word or gesture, the
nuances and standings If which
life is mostly made and by which
1t reveals its meaning-thcse and
the instructive understanding Of
the vision Of the playwright by
those who seek to interpret him,
are the incalculable and unrecord-
able channels through which The
Lower Depths becomes articulate."
The play is set in two locales.
one night lodging by compari-
son to which the "nickel-flops'' of
Chicago are palaces of comfort
and luxury, the second scene in a
waste or alley in the rear Of the
lodging. Within this confine, the
democracy of truth reigns; its in
habitants too detected, too de-
spairing and dislllusioned, to care
for the nicer amenities OF a
higher order of life. One finds on
parade nearly every emotion-evil
emotions--the race is heir to; jeal-
ousy, sensuality, fright, passion,
slothfulness. degeneracy, cynicism
and whatnot. BY startling COM
parison. there are one or two
clean hearts. That Of Luka. the
Pilgrim purged to cleanliness as
his homely philosophers admit,
and that Of Natasha, a frail crea.
ture, never scared. Aside from
these two, the whole Is a pen of
snarling, emhittered outcasts,
drinking. idling and doing a great
deal Of parading of their pet theo-
ries Of life and what it means.
Incidental atmosphere provides
murder. suicide, disease and as
sault, though there is nothing of
the melodramatic in any Of it.
The first line OF the company's
principals Is. in this production,
brought into full play for the first
time and one can be only general
