A woman of taste and, refinement
after witnessing a performance qf
"The Rival" as presented by Joseph
and William W,' Jefferson was over
heard to sayi "This has been I
profitable evening," and then she
kd half resentfully, "Why don't
we have more o themf"
Her remark, it is believed, voiced
the sentiments of nearly, every per
son In the large audience that had
just : witnessed , Richard Brinsky
Sheridan's comedy with .every, evi
dence. of delighted enjoyment . The
language of the play may, seem to tis
antiquated In expression and certain
of the characters may impress us as
old fashioned, but the wit, because
It is genuine, is keen, and the; humor
of the situations, by reason of the
skilful ease with which they are
created, has lost none of Us power
to amuse and gladden.
Not only the eye is gratified by
witnessing one of those ."old fash
ioned comediesbut the mind, too,
is roused and entertained and the
auditor departs feeling that he has
been not only diverted and amused
but refreshed and invigorated. Sueh
an evening is, in truth, profitable, for
the recreation that is one of the
chic ends of theatre-going has been
obtained and the mental faculties
have not been left unused, or, what
is more damaging, been dulled by
inanity and worse. Why we do not
have more of them Is a text rcquir
Ing too jfar-reaching treatment to re
ceive attention here even if it were
desirable. Managers, , player and
puClic are each in part to blame for
the infrequency of such evenings
profit, but it is doubtful if .the, chief
portion of such blame can with jua
tic be laid to the door of the public
If the theatre-going public, of tils
city desire to spend a "profitaU
everting", they should not .foil to see
"i'h Riv.il"i when it is presented bv'
Joseph and William Jefferson at the
Astoria Theatre tonight
