K——— (THE NEW PI NEW PLAYS “ Avartetse th in France” Practical but Dull ~~ EITHER great merriment nor Interest is likely to be excited by Bugene Brieux's comedy “The Americans In France,” brought out last night at the Comedy Theatre. All of us know that we differ In gnd he was lodged in the White Plaihs many respects from the French. Brieux adds little if anything to our | gucr were held information on this simply takes two Captain and a Red Cross nurse—and places them in contrast to his own people after the signing of the armi- stice, This js done with more fair- ness*than humor. The Captain, in building a watercourse across an estate, clears the right-of-way of ftreagured relics without regard for traditions, arguing at the “im- provements” he is to.make will justify his activities. The good work goes subject. He on with the tooting of a whistle and | other accompaniments, jarfing to the nerves of Henriette, daughter of the household, and is only interrupted momentarily by a strike of the work- men, who object to the thoroughly m teal system employed. But even Henriette is won over by Capt. Smith's enterprise and. his cheery as- surance: maid, lady—not on your life!" The nurse from Chicago is more disquieting ti Henrietta, whose brother has asi her to marry him, pointing out that the sister's devotion to Henri is really a sort of proprie- tory interest that amounts almost to ee fl The clash between these women gives the play its most in- terestl love of scene. But in their mutual enri they finally weep like ters. Then, in his master- Capt. Smith arranges to marry Henriette. The pay is prac- teal, but dull. Blanche Yurka acted Henriette in- teligently, and Wayne Arey was robustly assertive as the American Captain. Harriett Duke made a com- petent nurse. Madeleine Durand was true to life as a peasant. But there waa little life in the play, DEACON EXPELLED BY CHURCH AFTER SUIT BY HIS WIFE Unanimously, to Drop Newberry. Charles E. Newbury, whose wife [By CHARLES £5 DARNTON| | Americans—a’ “You going to be an old) recently obtained a separation, has | been expelled from membership in the | congregation of the Bedford Helghts | Baptist Church, Bergen Street and Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, of which he was a deacon for fifteen years. ‘The expulsion was voted at a meet- ing of ‘the congregation last Friday night, but becamé known only to-day through a statement that purported to come from @ member of the church. It ret eG jes E, Newbury, an adjuster for the Brooklyn Union Gas Company, | whose wife obtained a decree of sep- aration, with $50 alimony, from Jus- tiee Cropsey in the Supreme Court, Kings County, on July 7, ‘was by unanimous vote of the congregation expelled from membership in the Bedford Heights Baptist Chureh. “Newbury offered a written defense covering many pages. but the evidence adduced by the complainant, both in court and at the hearing before the deacons, showing frequent trips made by Newbury in company with Isabelle Griswold of No. 1028 Carroll Street to Albany, Washington, Rochester and Buffalo, and @ week's eojourn at East Aurora and in Canada, left the mem~- bers of the church m0 other choice tut to expel Newbury, who had served them us deacon for more than fifteen Ry The information contained in the statement was verified by Dr, Theo- dore C. Wiggins, one of the deacons, who said the defense referred to was o@general denial of all pharges, He explained that the deacons had asked Mr. Newbury to appear before them in private to thresh out the matter, but he ignored the request. The meet- ing of the entire congregation then was called. “Mr, Newbury did not appear at thig meeting, either,” Dr. Wiggins de- clared. “The question of his expul- sion was put to a vote and unani- mously carried. ‘There was nothing else that could be done under the cireumstances.” Mr, Newbury, when seen at his of- flee in the gas company’s building, said he had no statement to make at thie time.
