This comedy, the very literal miracle of recent theatric years, flat- ly defies reasonable excuse for its success; but everywhere it can stay a week in one-night stands, a month in two-night stands, a summer where other attractions are thankful for a bare nine performances, and three years in New York--all to capacity houses. In actual production, of course--as in all legend-plays with the fabulous runs of "Lightnin'," "'Thie First Year," or "East Is West"-"Abie's Irish Rose" is ridiculously disappointing. Not necessarily, you understand, because one approaches with biased superior air, but because, reason as you will, it seems so trivial, such a vast ado about nothing. A Jewish boy marries an Irish girl; there is the kosher hausfrau, enorm- ous and a picture of Bert Savoy; the pat stage-Irishman and the pat stage- Jew. The two fathers finally meet in the last act, violently abusing each other until the question of the child arises-the stork has been screaming by between Act II and III. The one promises to will the young couple his fortune if the baby is a boy, the other enters the same agreement if it is a girl. The solution, obviously-you has guessed it already-is reached as the nurse brings in twins, a boy and a girl. . .. And the house grows sick with laughter. There is your largest ferment in the financial American theatre: offending neither Jew nor Gentile, soft and easy, the play fat women enjoy after they have become forty and useless. -R. B. II.

RELLAR LAW OR Organized labor is developing into a tyranny in this country-a tyranny which recognizes the rights neither of1 its fellow workers or of that indefin- able portion of our population known as the general public. That the Amer- ican Federation of Labor has accom- Wlished a great deal under wise lead- ership is undoubted. But it is equally certain that an organization that puts itself above ,the law has become a menace to the individual rights.of our * citizens. In substance this was the argument of Hon. William L.

The Messrs Shubert, producers of the revised musical ver- sion of "Old Heidleberg" had no cause whatever to assume that their latest production would achieve its present popularity. First of all there is little or no dancing and much less jazz. Besides this, the music is excellent. The play is actually a comic opera rather than a musical comedy. The plot is by no means new and the humor is far from racy and equally as far from the usual Broadway brand. Nevertheless, it has been one of the outstanding attrac- tions: that "Abie's Irish Rose" and "The Studeit Prince"' should thrive in the same metropolis is further proof of the enigmatic taste of the theatrical public. The chief cause of its becoming a New York fixture is apparently the male chorus "of 60 voices" which act- ual contains just 24 men. But the stage direction is so subtly arranged 1 and the voices so lusty that few peo- ple even stop to doubt. Their rendi- tion of the drinking song is worth six encores every night. - iCOMEDY CLUB The following officers were elected Wom.-Why does everyone leave? by Comedy Club at their business Sis.-(Pausing) I cannot tell yobt. i meeting last evening in University Wom.-But you should tell me.
