The enduring success of the French drama which is practically u thesis in favor of the publication of certain facts concerning eontaglou.s disease of a sex ual nature has revealed a new- view point on the part of thn New York pub Ih This drama bv a famous French playwright contains none of the ele ments of entertainment comrnonlv thought indispensable to success in our theatres It is n straightforward procla mation of the necessity of teaching the young the path in winch dan:er lies. No tract w'as ever balder m its statement of fact. There was never less attempt to siigarcoat the pill or make the p- son any leas direct than it is To the surprise of those who consider themselves Informed as t the taste of New York pkivgners the public inter est in "Damaged Goods" has rendered it necessary to extend the performances set down for the play from week to week. And this happens in fare of the predic tions of the knowing that there would be little response to a series of ordinary theatrical represt ntations of Kt'OESF. HniKi x's work There are certain un tiHun I circumstances, however, surround ing the performance ot the play at the Fulton Theatre It wa introduced by a sociological oigaruatiuti and the interest of physicians in the outcotno of the ex periment vas keen. I- rotn I his section of the community there have come constant praise und encouragement for tho suc cess of the undertaking, which seemed to then) to possess valuublo educational qualities Their support has doubtless been effective in keeping up interest in the play. There has been in the minds of many others the belief that the effect of the drama's public performance may be advantageous. Hnr from what quarier of the com munity i oiild mill' praise for oilier plays which have urcntly been pre sented to the public with no other idea than to appeal to thn lowe.-.t and most ignoble instincts of public taste by oflering, as a duett minster Irom life, altogether lictitious combinations of horror and indecency? To strain prob ability only lo ombine in a drama both the lubricity of tliestreetnand thesacred ness of internal love in a father so be sotted by drink, to mention one current example of thn kind, is to reach lar down into the miie lor Mime attraction which may fill a theatre. Hotween immorality of this kind and the frank ness which may reside in the presen tation of a until such its "Damaged Goods" teaches is all the difference be-, tween disagiecahln fact and tho kind of filth which has no excusofor being dragged out o t he stage of a t heat re which respectable people may enter. A Warning to the District Attorney. A Hvio reformer who carefully sup pressor his nume, but whose eftorta lo obliterate tho return curd on tho en velope enclosing his helpful contribu tion nre InRUfllcient to hide Iho faut thnt hn lies uecebs to tho ntflcial sta tionery of tho IMstriet Attonioy of New i York county, has taken tho trouble to t send to TltK SUN a trannc'rlpt of part of section riS9 of the New York Charter, an followu: "It shall he a misdemeanor, punishable by Imprlaonmpnt In tho penitentiary for not I less than one year nor exceeding two yoars, or by a fine of not less than two hundred and 1 fifty dollar.4, or the forfeiture of his position, for ativ member of ths police force to wll-1 fully tiegnnt lo make on arrestifor anoffsnoo against ths law of the Htl or any ordi nance In forco In the city of New Torlt."
