The audience were in their places, and the curtain was about to rise, when an offi- cial of the police appeared and informed the manager that the performance had been forbid- den, and the money taken must be returned to the public. The French Ambassador was at once communicated with, and he proceeded without delay to Yildiz Kiosk, where he was informed to his surprise that L' Avare was an adaptation of a Turkish comedy in which the Sultan was treated with scant respect, and could not, therefore..., be allowed to be played in Turkey! The assurances 2i4 Turkish Life to the contrary of the representative of the French Republic were, of course, courteously received; but the fiat had gone forth and was ir- revocable, and the only solatium for the wounded feelings of the actors was a golden one of three or four thousand francs, of which the Padishah requested their acceptance. Still more recently an attempt was made to prevent the repetition of an amateur performance by the children of the English colony at Kadikeui on the pretext that the play — produced, by the way, under the su- perintendence of the English chaplain — was of an immoral tendency!
