Irene Franklin nt Keith's
"All Wrong!" Well, so far as Irene Franklin
goes, not for a minute.. She's all right! Es
pecially when she sings "All Wrong!" a little
ditty which Is ono of the most human pieces
of Broadway put Into song wa havo heard
these many days. At Keith's, where she is
appearing, Miss Franklin sings other songs
with which her name and type Is associated.
Adelaide once known aa La Petite Adelaide
and J. J. Hughes present a clever dancing act.
Mme. Dorea presents a large company in
"Great Moments from Grand Opera." Others
on the bill include Charles Thompson, a clever
Juggler; Irene and Bobby Smith, who sing
and dance; Andrew F, Kelley, who tells sto
ries, some of which are good, others not; Haw
thorne and Inglls, who are relics of the days
when the unlntellectual mostly went to vaude
ville, and tho limber "Lunatlo Bakers."
"Damaged Goods"
Eugene Brleux's much discussed play, or
dramatic message, called "Damaged Goods,"
was presented by a capable company of, "Rloh
ard Bennett's co-workera" to an attentive
mixed audience which gathered, doubtless un
der the Impulse of many different motives, at
the Walnut Street Theatre laat evening.
Whether or not the furore which has adver
tised It ever since a French censor turned It
over to America has been due rather to certain
peculiarities of the public mind rather than to
th content and purpose of the play itself, the
criticism cannot be made q it that a good
sermon was spoiled to make a bad play. For
"Damaged Goods" mut be Judged aeoordlng
to the advertising whleh the public has given
It, and the publlo is not hugely Interested In
this particular play as an exampje of dramatic
art. Its truth and Its power, however, suffi
ciently guarantee Its place In either classifi
cation. Broadway

A bride nrrnyed in nil her wedding finery,

Evory ono loves a bride, and tho play ap

trees." Heleno is distracted. The wedding bells
nro ringing. But at tho crucial moment Andre,
with whom Heleno Is in love, turns up. Andre's
mother, to frustrate a marriage with Heleno,
who is poor, has wickedly lied, telling Helene
that Andre wanted to break the matter off.
Therefore Helene had engaged herself to the
olderly Valentin.
We presume that, well acted, Andre might
bo a sympathetic hero. Jerome Patrick, In tho
part, Is merely an animated fashion plate. At
nny rate, despite unappealing actors, plays go
on, and Heleno elopes with Andre.
Helena's grandmother, Madame de Trovlllac,
In order to surprise her grandchild, has gone to
Helena's country place, where she Is to spend
her honeymoon. Mrs. Thomas Whlffen whom
dramatic critics who use unexpuragated press
agent matter, always refer to as "dear Mrs.
Thomas Whlffen" Is a grandmother after one's
heart, and her work is the beat in the play.
When Helene arrives with Andre she mistakes
Andre for tho huBband. And here is the weak
spot in the comedy, The plot revolves upon
Andre's failure to disclose the facts of the
flight and the two staying at the house all
night. Their blundering efforts to telt tho truth
are not In tho least convincing. It would have
been so slmplo a thing to do.
However, until the final denouement, when all
ends happily, amusing complications follow
rapidly.

"HINDLE WAKES"
The Little Thcatro Brings Philadelphia n Res
markablc English Play.
In "Hlndlo Wakea,' tho remarkable Bngllth
play which the Little Theatre brought to Phil
nil el phi a last nlg-ht, tho lato Stanley Houghton
treats tho old thome of the dual moral coda
from an original angle. Ho applies tho aclen-1
tlat's method. Ho drops the old game of Bet-'
tins up an argument pro or con. Ho almply
proaenta facta. They aet us thinking that hu
man conduct haa considerably overrun the con
ventions which are supposed to govern it, all
by presenting a caae that we recognize as
plausibly truo.
Fanny's Is a rather astonishing case to many
of us. In spite of all story-book notions, here
Is a mill girl who doean't necessarily want tu
marry tho rich younger man with whom she
has run off for a lark. Tho obvious aclenHfic,
interest of all this la the discovery which wo
aro all making that young women of our day,,
quite able to earn their own living, are assert
ing tho right to choose their own pleasurea
and their spouses qulto as young men have
always done. ;
The play acts forth tho return of Panny from
nor lark to And the truth known to her parent
nnd through them to the boy's family. From;
that it carries us on to consider tho varloua.
views of all the people concerned: tho father,
of tho boy, who Insists on marriage; the moth
er, who la "worldly wlae" and anxious to
"save" her con; the fiancee, who ia ready tp
forgive but determined to hold him to what ho
has done; her blase father, who 'upholds the
dual code from other motives. The father of
the boy a fine, crl8p study of domineering
common Bense, acted with as cool a. Justice by,
Ian Maclaren browbeats all these Into accept
ing the marriage. .And then Fanny, , hitherto
unconaulted, topples the whole thing oyer with
a declaration as startling and full of Import
as Nora's In "A Doll's House." She haa had
hor fun with hlmj when she wants a husband
she'll get herself a real man.
Finely characterized throughout and as con
sistently acted especially by "Whltford Kane ai
tho girl's simple old father tolling truth in the
terms of personality and emotion, without
factitious excitement or wordy argument, this,
new "Doll's House" marks itaelf one of the
notable plays of the new century in Cngland.-
