The article discusses several dramas. The play "The Lily," which has just been produced in the Stuyvesant Theatre, is an emasculated version of "Le Lys," by Pierre Wolff and Gaston Leroux, which attracted considerable attention and much adverse comment in Paris, France, by its open and bold advocacy of the rights of free love. "The Next of Kin," the latest play by Charles Klein, which was produced in the Hudson Theatre, and of which much was expected, is a melodrama of moderate quality and unequal effect. "The Travelling Companions," a story in scenes, by F. Anstey, which was originally published as a serial in 1891, has now been reprinted by J.M. Dent & Co. of London, England, and imported here by E.P. Dutton & Co.
