After a spell of loquacity, a striker, asks, "May I say Just a word?" but the word isn't heard for the audience's laughter. Not that "Judith Zaralne" is derided In Broadway as a whole. SUM, it would make a deeper Impression, where "Light and Right" is located In the Bowery. The human triangle of matrimonial drama has never been so exclusive of all else as it is in "The Havoc." During three acts the wife, the husband and the mutual friend are the only persons "Visible. Another singularity In this new piece is that the two men by agreement shift places In mating with the woman.

Conjugal Perfidy.

However, the stirabout episode Is a bold depiction of conjugal perfidy. At this time in the piny, Mllier is the husband of Laura Hope Crews, and Francis Byrne Is the resident friend.

"The lowering of the curtain in this act," says the program, "sigenllies the passing of a few hours." When the action is resumed, the dining room where the meal has been eaten is dim at midnight, and the wife and the boarder have gone to bed, not beds. Alas, no; as as the audience knows, but the husband doesn't when, having waited over a train, he comes back to rectify the error of the books.

He doesn't suspect the deplorable error of the- beds. Now, Miller may not be a rousing actor, but lie Is up to the craft of the stag, and he prolongs the suspense beyond the author's words with pantomime.
