By sheer strength of character acting Miss Dwyer does more than any one else at the Lyric Theatre to save “The Deep Purple" from seeming a very yellow Play, though the cast also includes W. J. Ferguson, Jameson Lee Finney and Emmett Corrigan as crooks who are not to be despised, and Richard Bennett @ young mining engineer from the West who goes up agminst the “badger game’ and beats It. Now, the “badger game,” of course, tx not played In the best circles, nor in the ‘best theatres asa rule, ut it seems a necessary evil In this play by Paul Arm- strong and Wilson Mizner, and as it doesn't go far enough to injure any one It fs, less shocking than some of the practices common to the “ethical drama. | «The girl ts innocent, and when the intended victim of the two crooks who have planned the game proves himself to be the best man by controling the situation 3 with @ gun and taking the girl back to respectable surroundings, Virtue triumphs ; #0 completely that Vice ¢ a pitlable figure, | Just as the calling of a crook is an unpleasant one, go ts the play unpleasant 4f you choose to took at it from the orthodox point of view.

It gives a con- vincing picture of the life of criminals, It 1s easy to believe that the authors have made 4 close study of this phase of life in New York. Their play leaves no doubt of this. They knew what they were writing about, and so they wrote a play that speaks for ttself in its own language. As @ matter of fact, “The Deep Purple” is the best “crook” play since “Deacon Brodie." It ts rough, but seldom crude, and weak only when {t grows sentimental. The truth of its types cannot be questioned, and its dialogue rings equally true.
