w
ITHOUT atterr.ptlns; to predicate
a conclusion on th fact. It
may b stated that the acond
vlait of "Forty-Five Minutes
from Broadway" to Omaha was
not a successful aa a business
venture aa tha drat. People did not fall
over each other to net Into the Boyd thes
ter during tha week, and many of thoae
who did to wera easily restrained In their
enthualaam after tha show waa over. It
would ba eeay to una thla to support an
argument that the Cohan fad la passing;
but aa ona swallow doesn't made a sum
mer, ao the opinion of ona town doesn't
end entirely the popularity of a player or
a play. It la certain that Emma Carua
haa shown much ability In the part of
Mary; ahe doea not, aa was alleged, slav
ishly copy ray Templeton. Whlle Mlse
Carua haa not undertaken tn "create" any
thing In connection with Mary, she haa
given to the part certain little touchca of
her own personality that seem to add to
Ita attractiveness. It la "Merely Mary Ann"
brought down from the Zangwlll to tha
Cohan level, and doesn't offer any very
luminous opportunities for the actor. Mlse
Templeton, by reason of the fact that she
la the clever comedienne she In. gave to
Mary a vogue ahe did not deaerVs, and
Mlas Carus Is uefng the part to develop
bar own ability along the same lines. If
she ean convince the public of the trufh of
what many critics arree on. she will have
.gotten more out of Mary than Fay Temple
ton did.
Ae far aa tha Cahan end of the affair
la concerned, the young man hlmnelf doea
not set up any claim to permanency. He
admits that hla popularity Is evanescent,
and he Is frankly turning It Into cash as
fast aa posMble. When the day cornea that
the people turn to a new Idol, George M.
will be located far up on the sunny side
Of Easy street, with a Urge ironbound box
stuffed to the brim with shining yellow
coin, and he won't care a rap whether It's
forty-five minutes from Broadway or fifty
miles to Boston, u is his engaging can
dor that carries him along, hla impudence
and apparent conceit being merely a pose.
Any bruises his artistic ncnse may Buffer
are easily salved by the golden flow that
haa roured steadily Into hia pocket for
several seasons. It Is unique only in re
fpect to tha fact that he cashed hla
tlioughta and turned hla mediocre ability
Into a large bank account.
May a dramatic ctltlc laugh? I'aris ia
gravely discussing tills question, according
to Mr. JIayden Church, whose' letters on
tho drama from abroad are now a feature
of tins page. Well, the question ia open
to discussion. It will be admitted at the
' outset that the critic as a rule has feelings
of his own which ho la not always allowed
to give vent to; yet no serious objection
haa ever been raised to his weeping, so
why should he not laugh if hla risibilities
be sufflclei.tly moved? Actor folks love his
applause, and affect not to mind hla cen
sure; but It seema that aome are deter
mined to resent hla ridicule. It would be
a wonderfully self-contained critic who
did not, secretly at least, chuckle at the
absurdities that are paraded from time to
time tn the most serious of plays. An au
thor finds himself confronted with an ap
parent lmrnssc, and he avoids it by vio
lating probabilities, his subterfuge being so
apparent that It cannot be overlooked, but
the critic Is expected to shut his eyes to
the condition and give the writer credit
with good Intentions and even originality.
Then ambitious actors do things that ex
ceed both art and nature In their efforts
to accomplish something that will win thorn
fame
oeai wim me surmised intent rather than
the palpable result. Now and again Is the
critic moved to something skin to Indigna
tion not often but mostly la he In a mood
more sorrowful than angry, asking In ad
vance forgiveness for the actor folks and
for himself, and then spreading over all a
mantle of charity that Is always thick If
pot broad. When the occasion comes that
he may laugh, should he not have the
privilege? It may be that the case Is like
that cited In Tarts, wherein the writer
sought to evolve a tragedy and produced
something the critics and the publlo In
sisted on treating as a comedy. At such a
time why forbid the critic the small boon
of showing that he Is merely human, and
say he may not laugh when all hla fellow
men are laughing?
Criticism of the drama la not taken bo
seriously In America as it is in Europe
Over there it haa been demonstrated that a
crltlo may make or mar the success of a
play. Such a time may come In Amer'ca.
It haa been proven very conclusively that
they can not yet make a play In this
country. One of the latest Instances of
this Is afforded by the fate of "The Strug
gle Everlasting," In which Miss Florence
Roberta was recently seen In New Tork.
It was generously rraed by all the metro
politan critics, and warmly endorsed by the
leaders. Mr. Royle waa credited with hav
ing written remarkably strong drtia,
and In a way that warranted success. Miss
Roberts and Mr. Arthur Byron ware
warmly commended for their excellent
work In enacting Its leading roles, and the
whole thing was recommended as a drama
of pitch and desert. But, asked one critic,
will It appeal to the public? It evidently
didn't, for Mies Roberts' New Tork en
gagement has been closed, and the play has
been sent to the atorehouse. It was too
Intellectual. In the meantime, the Cohan
drama and the Clyde Fitch piffle goea cn
delighting the folks of Gotham, and the
music halls are ntirhtly filled to the over
flowing. If the critic can not lauirh while
at the theater, he surely doea when he finds
himself behind the closed door of hla den.
He can't look at what is going on at the
theater and keep from laughing.
be ventured. Large salaries and easy work
are enticing stars of every magnitude Into
the vaudeville work, and etlll the cry l
for more. Acts that were but a little while
ago frankly conceded to be "shines," and
by common consent relegated to the
"honertonka," are now getting beck to the
big houses, and "polite," "advanced" or
