years Bf? The late Charles Frohman
had eor.'.errri'.ated a pretentious pro
.-., with Miss Barrymore as the
?tar, s~.J many memoranda found
among kit ejects will ba followed m
tUg-Tig tb? piece.
Miss Barrymore was leen as Mrr.e.
Trer.t.-.o :r. "Captain Jinks" in 1907.
Th:s appearance in Clyde Fitch's well
known comedy marked her Introduc?
tion as a star.
In 1913 M'-ss Barrymore made her
r.rst b:d as an actress of serious Bates.?
bilities ?hen she gave her noteworthy
characteri:a*ion of Zoo Blundell ?n
Pinero's ?rreat tragedy. "Mid-Channel."
In this play she spumed the large fol?
lowing which was hers as a comedienne,
?r.d s'.r-.-i <r-r. for deep tratar.
Chaaael" aatabl shed her in exac
?.ne w?y that "Justice" last winter es

It is not ?'range to lean that Miss
Barrymore -*:;: be teen Ifl a Sheldon
play, as there are few of the more im
por.-v - < it large at pre?er.t
who have BOt I ?her a play by Edward
y ia preparation or
have be?-, poaitivoly promised one in
the near future. Jack Barrymore has
two: "The Lonely Heart" and "The Liv?
ing Corpee"; and. among others, Doris
Keans and Bi'.'.ie Eur'ie each claim one.
The reriral of Sheridan's "The School
for Scandal" promise? to be the most
btterettlag of the quintet, as presen!
Indications point to a most distin?
guished company in association witk
Bfiaa Barrymore in her first appe&ranci
as the star of a classical play.
It has long been the desire of Misi
Barrymore's friends to see her and her
two brothers together in one produc
rhe tremendous success of "Peter
Ibbetson," with John and Lionel Barry?
more in combination, plainly forecas's
a fortune for the manager who can
Ci"-.': the three Barrymore? together
in the same production. The oppor?
tunity would now leem to be at hand
in this play. For who could be a bet?
ter Charles Surface than Jack? and
who a better Joseph Surface than
Lionel?
In addition to th:? interesting prob
l y, Cyril Maude is known to be
itching to play old Peter Teazle, and it
would not be surprising if next spring
see? him travel from Australia to New
York to take part in this production.
Mr. Maude is miserable when he play?,
the part of a man less than I
years old. and Peter Teazle holds a par?
ticular place in his esteem. He has sev?
eral times expressed a d.sire to put on
the Sheridan masterpiece with an
American actress in the role of Lady
Teazle, and at one time considered
Lanrette Taylor.
Certainly a production enlisting the
services of Mr. Maude and the three
Barrymores would arouse tremendous
Interest.
Miss Tayfor, by the way. will not be
seen at the Globe Theatre next year,
which will be given ?ver to Fred Stone.

It is doubtful if any foreign produc?
tion ever played on Broadway in
the manner of "Some,'' the English
revue which Raymond H.tcheock pur?
chased in Lor. ?'?n for presentation in
this country. Manifestly it could not
be put on in its original form, so Mr.
Hitchcock engaged a corps of adapters,
I literary carpenters and long renovators
to revamp the piece for local consump
; tion. After alterations had been com?
pleted, "Soma," a mere shadow of Its
former self, was issued under the title
, cf "Hitchy-Koo." During the past week
the only remaining song from the orlg
I inal, entitled "Have You Seen the
Ducks Go By?" wa? removed, and the
performance now has not on? line or
bar of music from its progenitor. In
short, "Hitchy-Koo" 1? a brand new
show, and yet Mr. Hitchcock Is paying
a weekly royalty to Andre Chariot, who
produced "Some" at the Vaudeville
Theatre, London.
While this is an extreme case, many
imported musical comedie? are, present?
ed in forms scarcely recognizable by
their authors. Frani Lehar's "The,
Man With Three Wives" reached Broad?
way with but three "original" numbers,
ami Strauss's "My Lady's Glove," now
at the Lyric, ha? only four or five orig?
inal numberi left.
The evident delight with which Amer?
ican "hack writers" pounce upon for?
ra successes and hew them to pieces
is said to be a great topic of conversa?
tion at the Caf? Museum, Vienna.
where Lehar, Strauss, Kaiman and
other composers foregather nightly.
With their works, however, the reason
? -?.pie: American singers are gen
erally unequal to the task of interpret?
ing the Viennese scores. But in the
l ? of "Some" the explanation is nor
so easily discovered.
As "Hitchy-Koo," however, is a great
success, and undoubtedly the brightest
entertainment now available, there is
no one to complain.
Incidental to her recent appearance
'Ghosts," with the Wsshiagtoa]
Square Flayers, Mary Shaw spent a
good deal of her time coaching the
young actors and actresses. Turing an
interesting session, one of the pupils
looked suddenly at his watch and said,
"I'm sorry, but I must be off to the
BgtOfl Square Players School

autumn.
This special sale includes some 2..500 yards of the regular two-dollar quality, very rich

Of course, there is a reason for selling them so far below the regular market price.
