There is hardly any character, and except in a few pieces, such as Lodge's Margarite of America, there is little attempt to utilise new scenes and conditions.

"Lee, pray let me enlighten you and Senator Dunn," said Warburton, sonorously, "and terminate this awkward interview ... When the last spike is driven out here presently Mr. Neale will be chief engineer of maintenance of way of the Union Pacific Railroad."
