...voices speaking out of a mob, mark another difference. Finally the structure of the play is in quite another vein from that of Miss Lincoln's. Where "The End of the Bridge" gradually evolved the story of Peter and at the same time showed the recovery of a woman's mental balance and her growing love-for the doctor that saved her, "The Product of the Mill" is a simple narrative of a mother's search for a child, a narrative that might end at any moment if the necessary words were spoken, but that keeps on for the regulation...
...resided at Newport, R. I., but since then has lived in Cambridge. In 1880 and 1881 he was a member of the Massachusetts legislature and from 1881 until 1884 was a member of the State Board of Education. He was an earnest advocate of woman suffrage and was also a well-known man of letters. Among his most notable publications are "Harvard Memorial Biographies," published in 1866; "Young Folks' History of the United States," which has been translated into French, German, and Italian; "English History for American Readers," which he wrote together with Professor Channing of the department of History...

...will be necessary. "The Easiest Way" was a brutal play, dealing frankly with a brutal subject, but it at least succeeded in making vice hideous. Mr. Carb's play, "The Other Side," attempts to inform the reader (the play is fortunately too short for the stage) that for a woman there is more chance of happiness in vice than in unmarried virtue. Incidentally one happens to know that this is false and that the author knows it also. In a review later on in the Monthly, Mr. Westcott says that we sometimes hear that "art for art's sake...
...difficult transitions from boasting to cringing and back again he managed with a fine skill of reality. He played to the point of delight a part which demands very much versatility. Mr. Spelman's Bess Bridges quite exhausts praise. I do not remember seeing another man fill a woman's part so sufficiently. At times Bess was genuinely and girlishly charming, to the point of complete illusion; yet never over-feminine. She was most interesting, perhaps, in her masculine disguise,--very like a man, yet the same feminine Bess. The part is long, and in its changefulness most exacting...
