PLAYS AND PLAYGOERS. HE review of the theatre sesson published in The World yesterday makes an interesting study of what the reviewer is forced to pronounce an “off” stage year. The older play- wrights rested on their care. The younger playwrights did nothing particularly good. Musical comedy, with one or two exceptions, a to another. Revivals mainly saved day. Yet, in spite of the poor qualfty of the eeason’s plays, the qmentity has been Forty-four first-class theatres have provid.d New York with 191 stage events, of which 105 wore entirely new plays and‘ twenty-eight were new musical comedies. As the cession before the public. A new theatre im New York to-day is eftener than not a “flyer” in real estate—neither more nor lees. Can it be this surfeit of plays, this reckless and random theatre- the manners of New York audiences? The ocking increase of giggling theatre parties and audible tones during the performance.

(The New York Evening World) No. 44—THE LIGHT THAT FAILED, by Rudyard Kipling. ICK HELDOR’S boyhood had been loveless and lonely, brightened only by the friendship of Maisie, a strange, motherless little girl who lived at his guardian's. When they parted he and Maisie exchanged vows of deathless love, in an awkward, childish way. And they did not see or hear of each other again for ten years. Dick went to Paris to study art and eventually drifted to the Bast, where the first Soudanese war was waging There he obtained work as a war artist and became the chum of Gilbert Torpenhow, a newspaper cor~ respondent During a fight in the desert Dick was slashed over the head by @ native’s sword—a cut destined one day to change his whole life. Going back to England, after the war, Dick could find no employment. He lived for a month on twelve dollars and a half, sleeping in » garret and feeding once a day on sausage and potatoes. all at once he “woke to Ond himself famous.” His war pictures were the sensation of the hour, Everything he painted was bought at top prices. From poverty he found Aimeelf on the high road to wealth. One day, in the street, Dick came face to face with Maisie, Instantiy oll the old time love for the girl rushed back to his heart. But ft speedity became plain that Maisie could look on him |] Akeove That | oniy as @ friend She, too, was a painter; ambitious, im |] Was Wasted. | gustrious, but almost wholly without talent She was ag ——=—=—=—=—=—/ much of a failure as Dick was a success, and she was top obstinate te take his advice along lines that would have improved her werk Maisie was deaf to all Dick's pleag for lov.

Dick, out of charity, hired Bessie as a model From j the first she disliked him—who was all kindness to her. And she adored Tor | penhow—who would scarcely waste a word on her. At last Torpenhow’s vanity was touched by Bensie’s devotion and Dick \ |interposed just in time to save his chum from so degrading an entanglement. For this interference Bessie's dislike for the painter changed to petty hatred and she vowed to “get even.” Meanwhile, from bard and incessant work, Dick's eyes began to bother him. He went at last to an oculist, who told him bluntly that the swordcut on head had injured the optic nerve and that he was going helplessly blind. bore bravely this sentence of living death—the smashing of his wonderful art career at its very outset, . He resolved, before the end should come, to paint one immortal picture. fe get feverishly to work on it, keeping up his strength of eyesight by heavy drink. ing. And the day his eyes gave out the picture was finished, He realized it was his masterpiece, the last wonder flash of darkening genius, Bessie, to pay off the old score against him, secretly destroyed the picture, Blind, Dick could not know. And no one had the heart to tell him. Al Torpenhow hurried to France, told Maisie about Dick's blindness and ine, duced her to come back to England to see him. The girl, touched by pity, thought she could perhaps love Dick now, but at sight of him she realized ahe could not. And back she went to France, leaving him forever, | Another Soudanese war was beginning. Torpenhow, supposing Dick was well provided for by Maiste’s compan. fonship, went thither as a war correspondent Dick, tet, alone in London—friendless, bilnd, helpless and hopeless— could at last stand the horror of his position no longer. He had a craving to be in the heart of this new war. And to the East he made his way, With infinite difficulty and hardship he got to the front He rode into the camp where Torpenhow was quartered just as the Soudanese were attacking it. A native rifle bullet crashed through his akull and he rolled over, dead, at Torpenhow’s fect.
