Delphine” Has Lively Airs. “BY CHARLES DARNTON. | ‘10 long as Ivan Caryll writes the music, it doeen't matter very much who | writes the book of the musical comedy that comes from England by | way of France, for Ivan the Tuneful has a trick of making the slowest | ce seem lively. ) In the case of “Oh! Oh! Delphine,” exclaimed at the Knickerbocker tsatre last night, the book and lyrics were good enough to keep C.

Aside from the harmony of colors displayed, this chorus drew a} second glance that discovered It to be all of a size and attractively young and slender. It had evidently been chosen with great care, and, like the costumes that gave a delicate hint of good taste, it added @ touch of distinction that ts often missing In musical comedy. | While there {s nothing to exclaim) about in “Oh! Oh! Delphine," the piece has a lively alr—in fact, a number of lively airs. Several of them are in waltz time, with tho result that the whole performance laet night was given a pleasing swing. If the voices were not always up to the muste, there was at least music In tho alr, thanks tu an orchestra that made the best of it. To taik about sengs in musical comedy is almost as hopeless a task as telling the story, which tn this ase seemed to concern itself with a left shoulder that ings e as Alpnonse would make the Venus of @ young Bouchctte. artist a perfect lady, In the original French of the farce this shoulder may have dislocated a few of the conven- tions, but as we saw it last night 4t bore nothing more than the light mark of the divorce court. There was a wong, however, that left domestic relations less sure and settled. It was called “Everything's at Home Except Your Wife," and tt had 4 ring that made tt both metropolitan and suburban,. Here was a song that you could take home and try on your wife elther In or out of town, It was brought out by Frank McIntyre, with the assists of sundry housemaids who could teach him a thing or two about keeping the vocal corde dusted. Asa singer Mr. MoIntyre probably has no ambition to make his name a house- hold word, It ts enough for him, per- ps, to be fat. This in tteclf makes nisy funny, but in spite of his size he 414 not realize fully the possibilities of the role that fell to him last night. “Oh! Oh!
