Nobody cared particularly whether the company that played "The Gamblers," at the Gennett lat night was the "first" or the "forty-lrst." There is no virtue in a "first company" unless it happens to be the original caste, and even at that it may be negligible in histrionic acumen. However that may be, there was but one weak spot in the presentation of this play here that in the role of "Isabel Emerson," which was so minor a part that it really didn't matter, save that it marred the harmony of the composition. The young woman who took the role should retire permanently from the stage. Her place is otherwhere. Charles Klein, author of "The Gamblers" know 8 how to write a play. Prom the standpoint of technical consideration, of construction, of the mechanics of play-writing, Klein is always interesting. And he knows how to tell a story, a good story and how to tell it well. Mere virtuosity in play-writing counts for little unless accompanied by the good red blood of life. Klein united the two. While he is fond of the cold, merciless type of business man, of the militant woman and the clashing of these two he nonetheless invests every sep arate creation with reality. His gallery shows infinite variety in personality. "The Gamblers" is one of those plays of American life, which have been 'current the past few years and which have made an appeal to the pub lic of the country because concerned with people and situations with which the average American is familiar. The story is, in brief, this A set. of men controlling a string of banks speculated with the funds and are under Federal investigation, "Wilbur Emerson," taken by Mr. Charles Mackay, and the manager of his father's affairs Mr. Frank Andrews impersonating "John Emerson" the father being directly responsible for the financial imbroglio in which the men found themselves with prison terms possibly staring them in the face. Emerson, the younger, recognizes the fact that he has drawn his business associates into a net of complications although to a certt-in extent with their consent and, knowing that his father, who has supreme confidence in him is entirely innocent of even any knowledge of the peculations, is determined to keep the latter entirely out of the investigation and its disastrous consequences. "James Darwin," the prosecutor in charge of the case.a hard man, with political ambitions to which he will subserve any means, is the husband of the woman with whom Emerson has always been honorably in love and for whom she, unacknowledged to herself, still retains her early love having thrown him over for Darwin because of the former's devotion to accumulating a fortune. The story is a thrilling one and includes the capture of some papers given to Darwin by "George Cowper" taken by Franklyn George, to save himself by turning state's evidence and which get into the possession of Mrs. Darwin during her husband's absence from home and which she finally turns over to Emerson when she finds her husband most falsely and unjustly accuses her of a liason with Emerson. The finale, an effective one, in which she promises to wait for Emerson during his incarceration since she is to secure a divorce from her husband makes a climax as skillfully managed as it is romantically appealing. Realistic, as well as carefully polished, characterizations were those given by the caste seen here no more convincing exhibition of histrionic art could be possible than that of- Joseph Adelman as "James Darwin," his personality lending itself admirably to the role cold, hard, merciless, suspicious, boundlessly ambitious and ssjfish with the selfishness of sex and of individuality. In its way it was a histrionis masterpiece.

An expose of the psychology of the human animal as grim and sardonic as
it was pitiless and genuine. For this alone the play would be notable. Miss Lillian Kemble, as Catherine Darwin gave a dramatic presentation to be remembered that of a woman of pronounced strength, just, faithful, sincere, honest and yet charmingly and deliciously feminine Miss Kemble accentuating the Impersonation by her own magnetic and attractive personality. Take it all in all "The Gamblers' was one of the best plays seen here in several seasons, both in its construction, its presentation and its mise en scene. To those of an inquiring turn of mind it may be stated that this is the Southern company, which has played many of the largest cities in that section. Loud guffaws from the gallery punctuated the intervals during the progress of the play, and'as equally resonant guffawing from the first floor pointed the waits between curtains. It is useless to talk of the manners of the gallery gods.when those of some of the most expensive seats in the house are no better. Much yapping and audible comment upon the various arrivals, known or unknown, is indulged in by those who are sometimes weirdly called "the best people of the town." Such exhibitions are only indicative of the bad breeding, vulgarity, rudeness and lack of knowledge of the ordinary social decencies of the sources from which they emanate. If police discipline is needed next the roof, it is equally so on tbe floor. No discrimination should be made between the "roughnecks" perched aloft and those in the orchestra chairs.
