lhe Still Alarm.
No American play of the unpre
tentious, modest kind has enjoyed
such a remarkable career of pros
perity as Joseph Arthur’s “Still
Alarm,” that interesting and thrill
ing story of a fireman’s life, which
has probably made more money for
ita author than any other produc
tion of like character. It will be
given at the Academy of Music next
Tuesday night and will be received
with warmth, for few if any plays
seen in this city have created a
more favorable impression. “The
Still Alarm” has had many imitators
but they have been cheap and taw
dry attempts at play-writing and
have been unsuccessful.
This scene shows the fireman in
bis native lair, the method of his
life, and gives the audience a most
vivid picture of a phase of city life
with which very few are familiar. A
brief synopsis of this thrilling and
realistic scene will not be out of
placa. It is the interior of a fire
engine bouse, The firemen come in
singing tbeir songs as they retire
to their dormitory to snatch what
sleep they can The real steam
fire engine is in its proper plaoe
and the two trained horses stand
by in their stalls, awaiting with
singular intelligence for the alarm
which ia to call them out The vl
-of the play cuts the wires of
the alarm aud afterward sets a
house on fire to burn and deetroy
evidence of hia guilt The fire ia
raging and no alarm is given at the
station. A telephone message ap
prises tba hero of the fact He
knows that in the burniug building
his sweetheart Elinors is sleeping.
He acts with the spirit of a hero
Grasping a hatchet, he strikes tbs
big gong Out tumble the firemen
from their cots in the upper dormi
tory; they slide down the braai rods
like the wind, to their places; forth
from the stalls come the white
steeds prancing and impatient to
get away; in a flash on goes the
harness, suspended from a hook
to the horses’ backs, bats are grasped
coats are fiung on, the hero grasps
the reins, there is a roar, a scream
and a ebout, and before the audi
ence has time to think, the highly
polished engine sputtering sparks
and smoke, and the snorting high
mettled horses have dashed away
and the curtain falls on a soene that
never fails to awaken the wildest
enthusiasm.
