Count de Lussac, sobered by the desertion of his wife and realizing the intensity of his love for her, prepares to attend the wedding and claim his own, but is too Iate for the ceremony. Thereupon he| decides to invads their home and win back what he has lost. The climax starts from that point and reaches its highest development at the final cur- tain. Alfred Lunt, as the count. presents a pereon of striking individuality, and is just as convincing under the sway of deep emotion as in the tan- talizing. irresponsidble moments which are essential to the comedy that is the principal purpose of the pro- duction. He is the same person, whether grasping his wife with in- tensity of affection or lightly rebuk- ing her efforts to reform him, and always displaying the daredevil quali- ties of one who has won fame as an ace in the fiving forces of the war. Miss Lola Fisher, as the wife, inter- prets that character with a fine reali- zation of the intention of that young person to maintain her rights as a wife and to go to extremes, 1f neces- sary, in accomplishing that object. She succeeds with notable art in pre- senting & purposeful, but naturally f subdued, individuality, while con- Il tributing with charm’ to the comedy element. The grotesque triangle is completed by the work of Francis Byrne as the baron, fmparting the spirit of unso- phisticated enthusiasm to a situation in which he is a negligible axh ot 28. “candelights” in CORNWELL'S BETTY BOX.
