The larger scenery for the scene on the banks of the Loire was not shown here, and the flag which should have shown the change of the wind by floating out in the air, only stirred slightly. stil most of those who had seen the play in New York say that they preferred it as we saw it on Wednesday, Miss Arthur; who gréw stronger as the story proceeded, just as no doubt the Maid of Orleans did as she, a young peasant girl, who could nei- ther read nor write, developed in her strange and strenuous career, had the powerful personality which must have lain behind the simplicity of the village girl of the Middle Ages, whose name has rung down the centuries, and whose story has been written again and again, each author reading into it & meaning of his own. And wherever it is played the audience too see in "Saint Joan" much what they look for. Is not this the quality of the great ones of the earth? Has it not been so with all the saints and even with Him, who took the path of martyrdom along which they followed Him?
