THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 1,. 1810. u TiiE CITY" MOST - :.. . . 1 w ID STONY All Elements of Crime Play Part in Fitch's Poduction at New Heilig. ' By E. I. ' Tlrpocriiy, blackmail. dishonesty, theft, de&ont-yacy and murder soch are i..e lnsredleni ct Clyde Fitch's latest mid greatest play, ''The City." Charted with .sensationalism, ghastly wits hor; . rots, the bruul and bruising climaxes utasgvred the big audience and left H fjhclc4tl and stupefied. During the ten firm of the troniffndous second act, the audience held Its breath rasping , and tmothering with emotions. It is not police nor a cheerful story. Hut truth, they say, is never well-bred, and being naked Is shameless. The central figure la a degenerate youth mnddened by drugs, an Illegitimate off spring -of the most eminent cltlien of : Mlddleburg, -N. Y., and the village dress- maKer of spotted reputation. With such a motif, the play contends that the city Is not to. . blame because weak characters go wrong. The city Strips mf n of their flasks and forma a cruci ble for their regeneration or Jhelr de moralisation, according to the stuff of Which tlwy are made. ' Advantages or Village, "We can hide our hypocrisy In a email town. Men grow to old age, never suspecting their own dishonesty ' and crooks at heart pass for men of Integ rity: because they have never been ti-mpted as the great city tempted them." i (Jeorge Rand Sr.,' Is the father of the drug-craased Hannock,' who continually bleeps the former for money, not know Ins the nature of Ms claim. The senior Rand has a legitimate family, also, t'pon the death of tha father, George Rand Jr.. Is told tha truth. The family moves to New York, Hannock accompanying them as Hand's secretary. Rand is up for the nomination of gov error of New York with brilliant pros pects for a whirlwind victory. Han nock's blackmailing comes to the notice of Rand's campaign manager, and his dismissal is requested. In the terrible contest between Rand and Hannock which follows, It develops that Hannock has that morning married his , half -sister, Cicely. Tha Innocent ' girl enters and rather than let her know the secret, Hannock shows the. only mark of manhood. In him by si lencing ner forever.- Death of Cicely. The death of Cicely brings the family, all of whom are mora or less compro mised In various festers of city life, to their senses, and the audience is left- uncertain as to the working out of their futures. - 1 The best performance was that of Geoffrey Stein as tha broken, sodden and brutalized wreck. Hannock. The character accomplishment was so near perfection as to bear the uncannlness of reality. . Mario Majaronl as a sot and man about town, was excellent; his portrait was intensely exact. Norman Hnekett. always a favorite with Port land audiences, sustained a trying role with thaiacterlstlc force. Miss Ethel Martin is a velvet-eyed beauty, who played the highly-colored sister, admir ably. Miss Sueanne Wills as Cicely was wonderfully pretty and petite, but not -equal to the big scene In the second act. - v NEW WOMAN'S SOCIETY ORGANIZED AT U. OF 0. (Special Dlinatch to The Jnnraal.) .
