KiiTn AvitNux TiikATiit:.—"UcnilemAn Joe," a two act luuvlcal farce, by li^Bll Hood, the mnalc liy Walter Kuuibton, waa given lu Distlucal prescoia- llon ot tbla bouae Jan. 0. It was originally acted at the Prince ot Wales Theatre, I/>odnn, Rog., March 3, IKU, aud was introduced to Aoieiica ?.t Ulntr'a Theatre, Newark, N. J., at Ibe matinee Dec. ii last. For some time past tbe play has been the ol'Ject of mucb legal coniioveny, H. U. Curlii, who fathered tho present production, and tho Aronsons, wbo hod Inten'Ied to Dive it at Iho BIJou, laying claims 10 rtghu to tbe American production. Tbe Amnsoiu, however, bad no company to produce the play, and conseiiuently the llljuu Theatre was la darkness. They, however, secured an iDjunctlon rrom Judge Larombe reatmlnlog U. U. Curtis and hla wife, All^loa De Her, froiii acting in the Fltih Avenue company. Mlatakon Idonilty la lbs malupring ot tbe llsriesa farce In (jnesUon, and the bearer Is dniaged tliroagb long lioura of dla- logae, stopped abruptly by aumeroui musical uuni- bers siraoat devoid of melody, and at no time con* duclvo ot a sign ot humor worthy ot more than a faint preaentlment of a amlle. In tact, tbo Hoes ot the play convey no fun wonby ot tbe nume, and Iho altuiitlona bear no aemblauce tn anything hu- morous or even mildly funny. Of tba mualcal num. bers Annie Meiers rendered the onlytoog worth hearing, and made that ot more Ihun passing In. icreat by the happy method ot lis rendition. All that could be poailoly told of Ibe allm aud almoat polnlleas morr the plot btlnee out has alicady been puiillabcd In our columnn, and tlie aubject in hand wnrraiils no furiber dc. lalla. lia plot developca noibing more than doea the avenge American farce comedy, and lu lines are weighed down with murky and sodden allegii- lloouot Kngllsb mtrthwblch admit of no action and airip tlia aciois or any iMsalbllliy ot doing them, lelvea credit oreron Umplo Jaatk-e. An udded mls- fortiino la tbo ract that the nieTiibera ot Ibe preaeot- iDg company are aadly lacking In rocal aci'ompilab- nienla, and, although they bad poor musical material to build upon, tho result of their eiTorta was liy no means hsrmonloDS, or even oredlialile. The chief rdo In the bands of vrillard l,eo gained nothing through the eleventb honr auhatlintlon. and to others to tbe cast Is due no special pialae for their work. tiro. K. rorictcne, anactorof known ablllty, bad little to debut lie. cauH; or tho hsndluap the lines of the pisy meted out made poor headway, and It seemed evident that Annie Uyers and Laum Unoro were alllgcnily tryinx to force their taleiiu lbrou|b the deiialty of the gloom snrrounillng them, liut cr|ually to no |iur. noto.
