BROADBRIM'S H. Y. LETTER.
It bas long been a mooted question
whstbir there was or could be a common
ground on which the pulpit and the stage
could meet; whether the objects to be at
tained by each were not so diverse that It
was morally impossible for them to come
togelber. When tbe Mallorles, at the
Madison bquaro Theatre, produced "Hazel
Ilrke," men and women ware found
nightly la the boxes who were seldom seen
Inside of a place of public amusement
Tbe play was clean and sweet, and far
once criticism was disarmed. The play
ran for three ears, and the lucky manag
ers cleared a Quarter of a mlllloa of dsllars
and gracefully retired from theatrical
manaeemea So It was evident that the
moral drama paid.
Ministers and church members turned
out, by thousands lo see Joe Jefferson In
"Rip Van Winkle," and tbs poor old
drunken rapscallion won a place in the
popular heart only second to one other
player of the century. But who it the
other, you ask? A very plain, unpretenti
ous man iudsed, who by some mysterious
process has worked his way Into popular
favor after a fashion which bas no parallel
In the annals of the American drama. Ob,
yes;there have been many notable dramat
ic lUCcessVs before, worthily atLleytd and
iionaitly earned, but lu th's isaanarof
k,llj8 i.OM Homeelead" now fnnlng ,
at the Academy, and the central tgure of
hlch Is Denman Thompson. What U It ;
that crowds that yast auditorium night
after night, and ha crammed It from pit
to dome for a year past? And what an
audience It Is; unlike that of any other
theatre In New Tork. Go to the Fifth
A venus, tho Madison Square, the Casino,
tho Broadway, or the Union Square, scat
tered about the husa yoa will see scores
of old blaze theatre-goers who are only
there to pass away the time and don't care
a fig ftr tbo play or tho player. Not so
at the Academy, there la a quiet earnest
nes and Intense Interest about lbs entire
bousa which proclaims an audience unused
to the theatre, and from tho moment
Uncle Josh comes on the stage, following
his oxen as they enter his barn with a load
of hay, till the curtain fall upon that
cheery old NnwKngland danco, the theatre,
the scenery, the music all fade away and
tho audience are standing among those
rugged eld New Hampshire hilts listening
to the story of a heartbroken old man, the
staff of whose age ha drifted away from
home, drifted away perchance noyer to
come back; who may have tank out of
tight In that distant Soloni whoso treach
erous quicksands have engulphed and
swallowed np the drift and wreckage of
overy city In the Union, and whose ereat
avenues and splendid parks are but monu
ments of withered hopes and blasted lives
filling our dally records and making the
Idle gossip of the hour,
I am not unused to the theatre. I think
I have seen and studied acting In all Its
phases. Yet as I sat looking at the "Old
Homestead" tbo other nlgbt, the man and
the piece were a mystery. If you should
put tho question le him, Are you a great
actor? tho chances aro a million to one he
wouU tell you, No. Neyer was there a
mote apparent complete unconsciousness
of self; such a thorough self-abnegation.
From the moment he steps on the atage
till he leaves it, It Is not apparent that he
Is in a theatre or knows that be I playing
before an audience. In the first act he is
In Swanzy among the New Hampshire
lulls, and as the certain goes np yen catch
the odor of the new mown hay and the.
sweet, clean breath of the mountains.
There Is no stage show about tho house,
the barn or the well with tho long well
pole and most covered bucket, exactly like
that from which lu happy boyhood's day I
drank .a thousand times. In my own old
New England home. Who kasn't seen tho
rude tin basin with the big chunk of brown
soap standing on the woeden horse or
btnch just ontslde the door? And when
Uncle Josh washes his face It Isn't a stage
wash, but a real, genuine, good old Yan
kee wash, just as he did It In Swanzy lopg
years ago before he ever dreamt of the
triumph of the Academy. The scone In
tbo house of his fashlouablo friend has Its
counterpart every day In the experiences
of our successful business men, who are
mostly from the country. One of tho most
Impressive sceues In the play Is Grace
church, supposing to face on Broadway
The setting Is grand and Impressive. As
the curtain rise disclosing the magnificent
church bathed In the soft moonlight, the
chimes ring out loud and clear a joyous
jubilee, then is heard the deep diapason of
tho grand organ which thunders Its melody
till tho building fairly rocks In the wonder
ful waves of sound. A chorus of sweet
voices chants tbo glorious Episcopal eer-.
vice, and new almost like a revelation
comes a sweep of melody, soft at first but
Increasing In power till the wondrous voice
fills the vast theatre with melody like that
with which the angels are supposed toslnp
around the great white throne. Uncle
Josh's uncovered head links roverently
upon the railing andhundreds of heads In
the audience are bowed In prayer, and It
requires the, rude shock of the entrance of
the Salvation Army to break the spell
Objection has been made to this feature
by some of the captious critics, though for
the life of me I can't see why. The cene
Is one which may be witnessed every even
ing on Broadway, and the enly fault that
I felt Inclined to find myself was, that Mr,
Thompson's Salvation Army was a much
more respectable body of men and women
than the original Jacobs of Balllngton
Booth,
Here then is a piece where the pulpit and
the stage seem to have shaken bands; not
a word, not a line, not- a thonght is sug
gested bat ls.swoet as the new mown bay
just rolled In from tbe Swanzy meadows.
Its success will tyldently turn tbe thoughts
of our American playrlghts to the develop
ment of a clean domestic drama. It is evi
dent the public are ripe for It. Will It pay?
At least give It a fair and honest trial;
meanwhile, I would say to my friends iron
the country. If you find yourselves In New
York of an evening with nothing to do, go
and see the "Old Homestead." Yon need
not be In a hurry, for from present appsar
ances it Is a permanent fixture, and It Is
pretty sure to last till onr centennial cele
bration.
Ever since Joseph Hoffman, the pianist,
was spirited away from Manager Abbey b
Commodore Gerry, the president of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Children, be ha been scouring tbe world
for a musical prodigy to supply bis place,
and this brings me to a few reflections on
tbe work of the Society. Don't let me he
understood as undervaluing their work,
for I 4o not. I recognize th ftct that
they baye saved several thousands of ails-
eraoie cuuurcn rrsn mo aouse and ne
glect of drunken parent, an fresa a con
dltlon worse than death; but there are cer
tain thing In connection with tbeir man
agement which I never oould understand.
When Joseph Hoffmsa performed here he
was In tbe highest passible condition of
physical health; b boarded at the finest
hotel in New York; be bad a retlnutof
servants to wait upon hlra, aid he had one
of the most akllliul and expensive physi
cians especially engaged to look after bla
comfort and his health. The time that Ixt
wo actually engaged lu bis performance
was one bonr, divided Into four parts, with
a rest of a qtarterof anhour between each,
Yet so tearful was Mr. Gerry ot Joseph's
health that they induced him to break off
his engagement with Manager Abbey when
he was making one thousand dollars a
wetk and his expenses, bis share of the
loss being guaranteed to him by a wealthy
New Yorker who bad taken great interest
in the boy. It knecked Abbey out of fifty
thousand dollars, a loss that ho bore like a
man, but it hurt him, nevertheless. Last
week I was crossing Brooklyn Bridge, and
at the Brooklyn entrance a crowd of boys
and girl were assembled, ne halt of
whpm were not aso'd as Joseph Huffman;
they were selling -the dally papers and
gambling. None or tbe girls, and there
were nine of them, looked ten years old,
they mingled In the games, and beard all
the foul laagnage of the hardened street
arabs around them. Young a they were,
their face wore that hard brazen look that
the human face only assumes after loDg
association with crime; they weie bare
footed, tbeir clothe bung in tatter areund
them: they were dirty Mid
unkempt.
Where wm Mr,
Gerryf Wheto were the
agent for the Society for the Prevention
f Cruelty te Children? It ever children
stood In need of Christian help it was
these, tbo flotsam and jetsam ot the slums.
Is the soul of Joseph Hoffman ot wore
account than the lowest of these hoBoles
walfa and lr)t?
But wboti Abbey lost Joseph HoCman he
did not sit down and bewail his fate, he
started on a search over the civilized world
to find somothtng as good or better than
Hoffman. On Saturday night be presented
his prodigy to a New York audience at the
Metropolitan Opera House, to an audience
that packed tbe building, and Otto Hesner,
for that's his name, jumped right irte
popular favor. The boy Is only about ten
years of age, but he Is a marvel on the
piano, and by our best musical critics ha
been pronounced one of tbe wonders of
tbe ago.
Doctor Talmage broke ground for his
now church on Clinton Avenue on Monday
and I regret that I cannot enter Into tho
euthusUsm of many of his admirer In re
gard to the new edifice. They baye ebosen
for tho site property In the most expensive
part In Brooklyn, and Instead of taking a
piece at uriocuplcd ground, and there were
plenty, thoy have selected a site with a
stately mansion on It which will have to be
tore down, adding thousands to tho costot
the new structure that ahould never have
been allowed. The cost ot ground alone
Is nearly a hundred thousand dollars.
Doctor Talmage says that the old Church
was heaytlv in debt, though why why It
shonld be "so I am at loss to conceive,
In the last ten years tbe church has paid
Doctor Talmage for his services about one
hundred and twenty-Uyo thousand dollars
and for a church deeply in debt a little
economy la tbat.dlrectlon might not have
been out of place. Professor All with bis
wondorful cornet Is another ef his fads,
and this cost a couple of thousand dollars
more; and again, at times when he should
have been in his pnlplt In Brooklyn, and
for which he was receiving the largest
salary paid to any preacher In that cl'.v
since Mr. Beecher's death, he has been
traveling all oyer tbe country from Call
torn I a lo Maine, lecturing and preaching,
nud receiving large sums of money tberofor
In addition to his salary. Tho trustees
and governing committee baye protested
time after time, but It makes no difference
and now after using up bis summer vaca
tion very profitably lu tho far West and the
Pacific States he starts at the beginning of
the religious season on a trip to the Holy
Land. It was significant that at tbe last
evening piayer meeting before the Doctor
left, the entire congregation struck un and
sang with an Inspiration and vim seldom
witnessed before, "We Need Thee Every
Hour." The Rev. doctor did not take the
hint, but sailed with his family on Wed
acsday. Tbe estimated cost of tho new
chinch Is something over three hundred
thousand dollars,
