To be suro, Edward Clark, In his feature act, In troduced enough pathos in his work nt times to make It nomowlmt nn exception to tho gen eral statement. But the surrounding acts were finnkly designed fiom start to finish for laughing purposes, and attained their end with a high degree of success. Edward Clark, to a piano nccompanlment. gave a number of extremely clever character impersonations, ranging from that of a Broad way chorus girl to n pathetic sketch of a homeless street urchin. The act was novel and mnde a hit. Barnes and Robinson, In a pinno-slngincr con. coction, kept the nudlenco In galea of laughter from their entrance to exit. There are scores of teams In vaudeville doing acts of the aama character, but this couplo arp nbove the av erage. Viola du Va! has a good voice, also a bad cold, and had to cut her turn short.

She Is engaged as stenographer by a shrewd, whim sical writer of detective yarns, who writes a tala about the crtma committed by the girl and brings her to confess to him.

A waiting wife a wlfo waiting late In the night for the husband to return who, loving, deludes herself Into believing her husband's excuses and untruths, and caring for tho home and a child; Is stinted by a meagio al lowance, makes over old dresses and boars negligence patiently. A wlfo tortured with sua plclons, harrowed with jealousy, still devoted and meek and silent. A pathetic figure a too common figure in life. Her counterpart is to be found In the little framo dwellings of every town, in the drab rookeries of every hive-like city apartment house. It has remained for Edward Locke to present this piteous human drama in such a popular way na to express nnd bring home the Injus tice of the double standard of morals In tho marriage relation In "The novolt," which opened nt the Adelphl last night. Ono might say It remained, through tho vehicle of Mr. LorkeSs play, for Helen Ware Intimately to pro sent the heart tragedy ot too many wives. "The Revolt" as a play has excellent qual. Hies. It transplants complications nnd phases of actual life to the stage. It carries Its alle gory convincingly. It Is n play thut must seri ously do good. While it throws before lt3 audlrnce. In the second act, the meretricious elegance and luxury of vicious living, as main tained by self-righteous, self-Justifying men. "The Revolt" Is clean and salutnry. It is nn American play, dealing with familiar domestic conditions. It Is as effective a plav on Its theme as was the antleptlc, much-exploited drama of Brleux on another. Anna Stephens, the wife, has waited for her husband night after night for seen years. There was only n honeymoon year ot happiness John, the husband, acted by Alphonz Ethler, spends his evenings as many husbands do, and while he tells his wife he woiks at the office, mingles in the company of a certain kind of emancipated women. To them he gives his money. A tribute must be paid to Miss Waro as an nctress. Unaffected by tho tricks of tho stage, intellectual In her Interpretation, her acting hns tho simplicity of really great talent. Ono la never conscious of the aotiess, you see only tho wife. Such a portrayal Is art. Assured of her husband's inlidelltv by her scheming, villainous, whisky-addictel step mother, who urges her to the life which. If it costs men money, brings money to women, Anna confronts John with evidence of his mis doings In a letter received from a woman. The long pent-up passion of jears bursts forth, and Anna rushes forth to the life of freedom en Joyed by the husband. While her precipitate illght after midnight In the morning from the dingy flat in Brooklyn to tho "swell" apart ment ot Flora La Rose, formerly Una Schmidt. nrr om acnoot cnum, on Itlversldo drive, rais-es a doubt as to Its plausibility, it la supposedly excused by the claim of dramatic exigencies. Most women would wait till morning and. If they loved their child as prodigiously as Anna asserted, would take their child with them. In striking contrast to tho mean homo of the decent wife, the Becond act flaunts tho allure and horror-of the luxurious homo of tho nKrn. doned woman.
