The play is by Lemist Esler, a Harvard graduate who also took course In Prof. Baker's famous 47 Workshop and who has been on the stage as an actor, probably to perfect himself In the technique of playwriting.

It concerns a maid, a pirate and a rich ruffian of old New Orleans, New Orleans of the year 1850. The object of the authors. Samuel Shlpman and Kenneth Perkins, is to be quite shocking. But they try so hard from the rery beginning that they soon kill the goose they rely on to lay their second-act golden egg. Their play is crude and labored.

the bounder, bought it and financed Madame In the business of turning It into an Inn. Madame still had a stately manner and fine black hair, but the old mansion is not what it was by any means. El Cato, the famous pirate, a price upon his head, comes there seeking iun and a room for the night. He is inordinately wicked. M.

Merluche is there, too, even wickeder; meaner, anyhow. And now returns from the convent unexpectedly little Jacinta, Madame Hyacinthe's dear daughter. Madame is aghast. Jacinta must go back to the convent at once or marry at once. The old home is now no place for her.

Madame says she must marry the libertine. Not. however, if Jacinta knows it. fihe has seen El Gato, the bloody buccaneer, before and loves him. He will have hone of her, since she is too poor and weighs only 98 pounds.

He likes to love tough women of 250. She, though, persists. Many, many heavily sly references are made to her purity and ignorance of life. She says things that would sound terrible if '0U didn't know she knew nothing. She doesn't want to marry old Merluche.

He wouldn't marry her if he thought her less innocent than she looks. So she finally persuades the pirate, much against his will, to, we'll say. compromise her. Meanwhile Merluche is planning to have the pirate seized. Learning that the girl has been compromised, Merluche spurns her.

The pirate marries her instead. And he makes it known that he didn't compromise her after all. It is a daring story told with scarcely a touch of skill. Norman-Bel Oeddes has designed pretty and expensive settings and much has been spent upon the staging. Perhaps there is no profit in it, but that is doubtful.
