HODGE SHOWS FAVOR
TO AN OLD ACTOR
Paul Dickey Arranges Private
Performance for Mis Play,
"The Fall of Louvain."
Ity HKVWOOI) BBOUN.
The Germsni have checked Hall
Cains. A great literary drive is ended
for the moment. Joseph Brooks, the
producing managet, reCSeVOd a cable
ige yesterday irom tue author
| that it would o?. necessary to
postpone the Brst performance of
"l'e'<" until January, as the members
of the company svere chary of taking
passage on account of the submarine
peril.
"Pete" i< a dramatization of Mr.
?"nine's novel, "The Manxman." Joseph
Brooks had intended to present the
play svith an Knglish company headed
,-,>? Derwenl Hall Caine, a son of the
author, early in September. In all
probability, now, the company will bo
? country. Hall Caine
and his son pHan to get here at the be?
ginning of" the year.
In addition to svitnessing the first
performance of "Pete," the author in?
to assist in staging the dramati?
zation of the novel, "The Woman Thou
Gavest Me." Both productions will be [
under the direction of Joseph Brooks
and the Sliuuerts.
We sasv Charlie Chaplin yesterday
for the first time. In seeing him sva.
lost a distinction and broke a vow. We !
were against Charlie Chaplin once, but
in those dayi s.'e knew no more than
to be learned In watching Nick
Altrock, of the Washington Senators,
imitate his walk. Also, we had heard
the ploti of aeveral Chaplin tilms tie
scribed by folk nascent from the pict?
ure house and still bubbling. This in
tensified our prejudice, and we vowed
that ulthough all the world was for him
he should never come into our life.
Now we are normal, and a minority
of one has been swept asi?le. Charlie
Chaplin is all right. To our mind he
has the supreme gift of comedy that
shading of aadnesi which lifts all fun
making. When Charlie Chaplin kicks
over a friend he does it without exu?
berance. He is wistful even with a
seltzer bottle.
We aaked a Chaplin fan once what'
he would svish if the gift were given
him to satisfy his heart's desire, and
he replied: "To see Charlie Chaplin
again for the first time."
One member of the cast of "The
Rosd to Happiness" has been excused
from midsummer rehearsals. William
Hodge, who will appear in the play
Boon at the Shubert Theatre, has IUC
i in gaining a vacation for the
old gray horse which plays the part of
Senator in tin- play. Senator has been
with the company two years, und as
he was letter perfect in his part it was
felt 'hat i.e might be justly excused, i
i ? ore going on the stai;.' Senator was
connected with the Street Cleaning
Department.
Frances Demarest is going to quit!
musical comedy as soon as she can und
study for cram! opera. Her sv.sh will
base to wait fulfilment, however, until
the ' d of the run of "The Blue Para?
dise," in which she has the prima
donna's role.
Paul Die '' of "The I.a-t
." at the Thirty-ninth Street
Theatre, has i ttei a iketch called
"The Fall of Louvain." It will eventu
I a place in vaudeville. A pri
performanee will be given by the
members of "The Last Laugh" com-;
;,..ny .-unit- time thi- -.seek.
In the ?irania a man must retain his
nose for news, else he might overlook
lUch a story as this:
"Mill Winifred Greenwood will stop
at nothing in her effort to get thrill
and resli m into her screen characteri?
sation. Nothing, did we say? Well.
Winifred nsver balked until Director
Henry Ott ssked ri*? r to put a wriggly,
crawly, llimy angleworm on a fishhook.
That WSI too mu.-h. She simply couldn't
,lo it, even though the script of 'A Di
?,,in' Decree'' ?lui call for such action.
She wouldn't even touch the horrid
thing, ?o it iras arranged that her
hing companion should do
the baiting of the hook."

Walsh Tells of Bribery of Courts
and Exploitation of
Women.

criticisms of the advance summary of
the main report of the United States

exploitation of women and children,
the empbi' ment o? gunmen, the sup?
pression o? free speech and the com- ,
mission of other social crimes against
labor were made in that part of the
report to Congress framed by Harris
Weinstock, Richard H. Aishton and 8.
Thornton Mallard, representatives of
the employei i.
In addition to those charges against
the employers, the employers' repre?
sentatives in their report say, accord?
ing to .Mr. Walsh- "When labor Is
effectively organised it has two mo;;t
powerful weapons at its command that
the employer, as a rule, dreads and
fears, because of the great damage
these weapons can inflict on him
These are the strike and the primary
boycott, both of which are within the
moral and legal rights of the worker
to use."
