BLIND PLAYWRIGHT.
SIR, JAS. ALLEN’S SON. THREE SUCCESSFUL EFFORTS. (Received July 21 at 10 p.m.) LONDON, July 20. A wonderful triumph over physical disability is represented in the production of three fantasies by Mr. C. R. Allen, the son of Sir James Allen at the Ertlinger Theatre. The placets display ed marked originality and promising dramatic ability, and were well received by an appreciative audience. Mr. Allen, though* blind, helped to plan the scenery and costumes, and to select the company by touch, listening and to their voices. He attended the rehearsals and moved freely and he seemed to know and even to see everything that was going on. He types all his own manuscripts.’
