"THE XIGGEK."
A Wonderful Play Coming to tho
Jiaplo City.
Some of the most effective and
dramatic incidents on the stage are
those that are heard rather than
seen. Sardou, in the days when he
was turning out "Fedora's" and
"La ' Tosca's" with tireless energy,
fully grasped the peculiar psychology
of a public that thrilled and awed
by the sounds of torture and suffer
ing in the wings, when tho same
scene, openly depicted before the
eyes of an audience would probably
have created derision.
Other French playwrights have
successfully utilized the same power
of appealing to the hearing instead
of the sight to secure their most
startling and dramatic effects. This
method had not had a great vogue
among the American playwrights,
although it has been customary ex
cept in a few notable melodramatic
instances, to have one or more of
the characters in a play describe off
stage boat races and horse-racing
contests for the benefit of the audi
ence. And sometimes this method
had been very successful.
Edward Sheldon, the author of
"The Nigger," tho remarkable race
problem play, which will be present
ed at tho Lyric, Friday, Nov. 25, has
apparently reverted to tho Sardou
method to secure some of his most
thrilling effects. Tho first act of
"The Nigger ' has a sensational
lynching episode; but very few mem
bers of the mob are seen, and tho
lynching Is largely nn appeal to tho
imagination. Nevertheless it is a
tremendously thrilling and dramatic
incident. The cries of tho pursuing
mob; the haying of the bloodhounds,
the sounds of the man-hunters In the
bush all re-enforced by an actual
glimpse of tho hunted negro in his
efforts to escape are thrilling in the
extreme.
Later the negro is delivered over
to the leaders of the mob; but the
lynching that follows Is only sug
gested. Tho audlenco realizes,
however, that tho culprit Is really
being lynched, and this imaginary
fact makes a deep and lasting im
pression. .
