Ui IRISH PLAYS MAKE A HIT One-Act Pieces by W. B. Yeats Are Applauded by Audience Largely Composed of De- scendants of Erin. ‘APPEAL TO ALL PLAY-GOERS. A goodly crowd of spectators, most ot them appreciative sons or daughters ef Erin, drew deep draughts of breezes from the old at Carnegie Lyceum, plays were excellently auspices of the to be an Irishman to portrayal of char- 3 m, the dramatic force and the high literary character of these one-act bids by, W.

A rare patriotic spirit flared in that work of Mr. Yeats. The first pla nd the most ambitious irae “The Land of Heart's Desise," which won approval here two years }ago, when presented with “In a Dal- jeony.” As on that occasion, Mabel Mallaferro played the “faery child” with fine feeling for the eerie qualities of the part. She was easily the etar of the lavening, this siip of a eixteenlyear-old. “A Pot of Broth," which came be- jen the serious plays, was @ delicious exhibition of Irish wt, telling the story ‘of a beggar who, with a bit of rough wtone, that he calls charmed, coddles @ superstitious old couple until he has ‘won @ full meal. ——E—— 80,000 Strike at Oporto.

Character of Attractlons Expected ~ to Rank Unusually High. An excellent quality of light opera ts | promised at the Grand Opera-House i during the summer, judging by ¢ | pieasing pertorniance of ‘The Geisha, with which the Stewart company has opened its season.

Long delay in her oolor-effect dances brought her to the front with the tremulous apology and explanation that her most important electrician, whom she had engaged on the recommendation of the union, had failed to put in an appear- ance or to send a single word explain- ing his absence, “It's just dreadful, that's what T think ‘t_fs!'" concluded La Léle, her voloo breaking almost {nto sobs, Because of her handicap, Milas Fuller was able to do but little with her dances. She put !n most of her time hissing instructions to the substitute electrictan, and once, when the wrong Heht was turned on her she was heard to say: “Not that one, you fool! ‘The sympathy of the audience was plainly with the distressed and disheartened dancer.
