Mrs. Halton, otherwise Aunt Jean- nie, {s one of those wondrous ladies whose beauty drives men mad, Many of them walk—I beg pardon, glide— through the pages of Laura Jean Libby, where they are always attired in “something white and clinging, with one red, red rose at her glori- ous throat.” ‘Mrs. Patrick Campbell, who produced “Aunt Jeannie” at the Garden Theatre last night, did not confine herself to the “white and clinging’ effect, but went Miss Libby several better. Her gown In the second act was aa chromatically comprehensive as the battle of Santiago in fireworks. If Aunt Jeannie were—ahem !—not quite reapectableehe would be & plague against which Indies with husbands would be Justified in petitioning for the protec- tion of quarantine, but EB. F. Benson, the author of the play, has made her saint, At least, he evidently thinks ao, and so does Mrs, Campbell, and they can point with pride to the fact that when Aunt Jeannfe trots out her fatal gift of luring men to rudeneases she does eo with a highly moral motive, EXPECTED OF “ DODO." ‘This much was to be expected of Mr. Benson, who lives and writes in tg odor of eanctity arising from the fac that his father was wrchbishop of Can- terbury. Aunt Jeannie's moral motive is to savo her niece, Daisy Hanbury, from marrying Lord Lindfield, who had been something more than e friend to Daisy's sister Diana. You bear a great deal about Diana, but mercifully enough you don't seo her. She is dead. ‘The essential fact about her is that she lived in Paris, Aunt Jeannie, who tells the sad tale to some- body in every act, always mention that with a mysterious air, as if It ex- plained everything unspeakable, “Well,” the narrative concludes, “she Mved In Paris!” A shrug and a sigh from Aunt a gasp from her auditor. Poor Diana! Poor Paris! Dalsy doesn't know the grievous facts about Diana, and Lord Lindfield doesn't know that Diana used to be Dalsy's sister. Nobody knows anything excent Aunt Jeannie, and she determines that the only way to stop the marriage Is to win Lord Lindfield herself, even if tt costs her the love of Victor Bratth- walte, whom she worships. ‘The poor, simple audience can think of other ways of keeping Daisy and Lindfleld apart. Aunt Jeannie might have told Lindfleld who Diana was, for {nstance—In fact, she does, quite un- necessarily, tell him in the las act.
