"Washington ' Shown At French Tlu-i?re Copean Aets tne TW!e Pari: Fa Fontaine's Comedy Is m> Programme C iteau-Thierry was brought within commuting distance of Valley Forge in a French-American programme pre? sented at the Theatre du Vieux Colombier last nigbt by Director Jacques Copeau in honor of Wa?hing ton's Birthday. Transportation between the two historic spots where France ami the United State- joined fortunes was fur? nished by Percy Ma?Kaye. Of the four segments of the presentation he provided three; "Washington," called "a dramatic action," an induction, and ?; prologue, translated into French by M. Copeau and by Pierre de Lanux. The last segmeri! was La Fontaine's comedy, "La Coupe Enchant?e" (The Enchanted Cun'i, 280 vears old. and still lively. Copeau's portrayal of General Washington as a breathing human be? ing, instead of a legendary figure, was um a highly successful performance. judged by the effect on the first-night ?uxlience, although it showed signs of having been carefully conceived. The drama of Washington's winter at Valley Forge had a terrific struggle to survive the effects of a Lafayette played like an effervescent boy, a negro servant speaking French with .''southern accent, and a lent of velvet of marvi ions hue:-. Chateau Thierry was not shown on the stage, but was conjured up by three characters before the curtain in the induction. Robert P ?act. as the Tragic Musk. Marcel Millet as the Comic Mask and Joins Jouvet a- the rheatre gave ? endid performances. Comedy and Vragedy are returning from th? G e,-, War, and tell the spirit of tiie Theatre of the scenes they had witnessed when Washington, surround? ed by marine.-, drove the poachers from the Chateau Thierry woods. The fact that La Fontaine, once a forest ranger, also chased intruders from the same spot, is introduced to lead up to the pr?sent?t inn of his play. Ir. this, first acting honor- went to ?lean Sarment, as Lelie. a youth equally, ignorant of strong drink and weak women, and to Rouis Jouvet, as Josse Iin, his harassed tutor. Every other i,.ember of the cast was excellent, and the comedy moved with a sprightliness and snap that wa i refreshing. M. Jouvet : cored again, as the art of t?" theatre, when, waiving aside a quartette of robed professors who gave statistics of Washington, be made in? vocation to the spin l of the real Wash? ington to appear. It was tellingly done, and it was a pity that MacKayc and M. Copeau did not hear him. '"Ci'ispino e la Comare" Given {>;> Chicago Company a!

Campanini's company under his direction, and brought more or less into juxtaposi? tion with the representations which liave bien given by V.r. Gatti's forces, Singularly enough, perhaps, the go sip of tho lobby seemed more occupied with the relative merits of Signori Scotti and Trevisan than with the rivalry of Mme. Hempel and Signora Galli-Curci. There is no urgent reason why the peace of the city sbould be disturbed by a comparative study of tiie singing of the two ladies in the part of Annctta. Signora Galli-Curci sang delightfully and acted the part charmingly in the conventional manner. As for tho rest, it was a study of contrasts rather than of comparisons. Had the Italian con? tingent usually found behind the' brass rails at the Metropolitan been present there would no doubt have been louder expression of approval for the amusing parlando effects of Signor Trevisan than was the case; for in the first act, when the cobbler was only a cobbler, tho buffo acquitted himself of a capitel piece of character acting. But there seemed to be too few people in the house who understood Italian to insure much enthusiasm. There was also something repressive instead of stimulating in the ponderous performance of Signor Arimondo as the apothecary Mirabolano, and the fact that Siirnor Stracciari, a prime favorite with the audiences hitherto, was un sympathetically cast as Fabrizio pre? vented him from making his customary hit. The music, too, often moved with leaden feet, and the opera was un? conscionably dragged out. William Rogerson, an American sinerer, made his d?but ns the Count del Fiore. The love episode of the young people being omitted in accordance with established tradition, he was essential only in some of the concerted music. Nevertheless, he was permitted to sine: his pretty air in the first act, though it had noiperti Pence to the story as presented. He sanir it with considerable taste and dis? closed a voice in which there seems to be nice possibilities. II. E, K.

Added bits of fresh business by the principals enhanced the vividness of the performance and the charm of the libretto.

Drama "Royal Vagabond" Proves To Be Musical Show of Manv Merits By Heywood Broun Our lis' of this ? ea on's musical come? dies is not complete, but "The Royal Vagabond" is e'lisily the* host we have encountered, and we are willing to back ? ?. sight unseen, against the rest to: the present. The new show at the Cohan and Harris Theatre is called "a Cohanized opera comique." It would seem to bo an old fashioned comic opera entirely refurbished by ;: man ?'.hi) lias the keenest 3ens of pace oi any one in the- American theatre. Cohan has probably kept the general .outline of the beiok provided by Stephen [vor Szfainyey ami William Carj Duncan and some eif the bes; melodies furnished by Dr. Ansel m ?oetzl, but he has lightened and quickened the whole product by inno? vations o'' bis own in plot, dialogue and music. in keeping the general scheme of in? trigue in the court of Bargravia, Cohan has justified the use of hand lome ;i i. gay costumes and dreamy melodies, but he has managed to in? sinuate a brisker and more modern in ' by allowing the characters and chorus i" poke fun now anil again at the happenings in which they are par? ticipating. The spirit of the piece may be judged b\ a single exchange lie'wee". the heroic prince and Ins comic tutor. "Does! '? that sound like a horseman approaching?" exclaims the prince when the traditional cocoanut shells begin to clatter. " N'ol exact ?y." rep! ios the tutor, '? ; it's fi good effect.'' There can be little question that i has achieved :? good effect. It seems to us that be has been exceed ingly discreet in satirizing his piot to ?us! th" right point. To carry the burlesque too far would make it dif? ficult for the audience ro feel a suf? ficient interest in the love affairs of tii" characters to receive their melodic proti stations of love in a sufficiently mellow mood. To have held his satire more cloRely in check would have im? paired 1 he fun of i he piece. Cohan has shown no hesitancy in shifting the mood from humorous disbelief to sont | ?mental interest with enl ?re ? udden ness, hut this seemed feasible ctinush last night. Personally, wo found no difficu tj m smiling at the iconoclas? tic word's of an opening chorus and promptly becoming interested in the question of whether the disguised prince would succeed in winning the beggar maiel. The nloi of "A Royal Vagabonel"' actually possesses a close relationship to words and music ami suffices in provide one or two actual melodra? matic thrills as well as furnishing ample opportunity for funmaking. The music, which includes a number or' ongs by Cohan, as well as those of Dr. Goetzl, is pleasantly variated fro: tinkling tunes oi' undying love to brisk dance measures. Moreover, there are at least two good voices in the com? pany, several excellent ?lancer-, and one even better than that; not forget? ting a tirst rate comedian and a number ./ i .;.. ble assistant a. Te -.- ;? ?mi ;.i am! (.race ?'''.-her have ? ' lie good \ nice: . Perhaps mention should also be made of a little Miss Pierre. The dancing of Dorothy Dick? on is charming. It has all the fasci? nation of beautiful line and perfect rhythm. Mary Eaton is also pleasing in a toe dance. Robinson Newbold car i s most of the comedy and manages to b' extri mcl; amusing and oa.- . al tile same time. Louis Simon i-; a con ; ;?: lei ; or. hov ? vor. and so Roger Gray. Winifred Harris carries off the purl of .i- queen with a touch of s1-1 ? - authority. Ai ? -? I he In-; of ? lie iong numbers are "(?etc Come t,:..

In case this review seems to be too enthusiastic, it is well to insert at lea::t one note of dispraise. We have j seen prettier choruses than that of "A Royal Vagabond," but we must add that we have also ?een few which went about their work with more spirit and skill and apparent enjoyment of the task in hand. Music ! ?-?_I Serpe Prokofieff Gives His Sec? ond Piano Recital al Aeolian Hal! Prokofieff save another piano recital yesterday afternoon at Aeolian Hall, and all the searchers after the dreiiiirc n music wore pre: ent. Young Mr. Prokofieff is the enfant ter? rible of the season. Ceo Ornstein must look to his fenci . ! :' he doesn't watch . out this blond bogie man from R'issia v. ill surely catch him. Mr. Prokofieff opened with his Fourth Sonata. The first movement was w tat we had been led to expect, the second prettily com? monplace, the third like the thumpings of an infuriated rabbit. Rhythm and steel lingers ;.;. i audacity v. ?il -.. -. -, ;.;.- e monier ary succi . Then the pianist turned from himself to Scriabinos, played a "Prelude" and "D?sir" A-ith delicacy and abundant tone color, and gave a whirlwind per? formance of he Etude No. 12. The third group was again his own. his "Visions Fugitifs," ten piano pieces. These were short, sometimes humor? ous, always rhythmic but music? Perhaps the music of the future when beauty is but a forgotten memory. Mr. Prokofieff is full of zest in bis musical futurism, hi the shop of what he no doubt considers musical china he rapes , at In-; will. The crash of distinction is j the music in which ho delights. Per i iiaps when the d?bris lies deep enough ! he will turn again to the paths of prose. Fernando Carpi, who for two years was ;i member of t he Metropolitan Opera Company, gave a song recital last night at Aeolian Hall. Though Mr. Carpi's training has beer, chiefly operatic, he showed at once a marked feeling for his new venture, and proved thai should he devote him.-elf to the more intricate t.rt he ought to make a placa for himself in the recital field. His voice is pot one of any great sen? suous beauty it. is light in timbre ami is. often white but his use of it is skilful, his taste just and his feeling sincere. He sang the cpo.ning group of old Italian songs, especially Pergolese's "Nina" and Falconicri's "Vezzosette e care pupille: re." with rare sense of style, and gave for an encore "Caro mio ben." In the French group he was no les.> satisfactory. His feel? ing of the Gallic school was indeed unusual for an Italian, above all for an Italian operatic artist. Duparc's "Phidyle," Debussy's "Romance" and the R?ve from "Manon" he gave with exquisite finish. Indeed, it is not. too much to say that Mr. Carpi was heard to better advantage in song recital than he ever was heard on the stage of the Metropolitan. A large audience was warm in its demonstrations of en? thusiasm. ? On the Screen i_ Walthall Revives 'Lone Wolf" in a Fascinating Melwlrama, With Plenty of Action "The Lone Wolf" appears again in a -tory called "The Fais" Faces," by Louis Joseph Vance, which is being shown in picture form at the Rivoli this week. Henry B. Walthall is the slar, and the picture itself is the sort, which I press notices always refer to as a "super-production." This term has been applied so often that it has come' to mean no more than "different" or "wonderful." But one may at lea-* say that it is a super 1 fine production, which it truly is. After it was finished wc just won dered how Thomas Ince ever had done it. not because we mistrust Mr. luce's ability, but because it seems such a huge undertaking. No pain--, have been spared ;.p make the picture perfect in detail and nothing is left to the imagi? nation, , It is terribly complicated and in? volved, but gradual!;, the threads are untangled and are woven into the pat? tern uni ?1 the si ory is ci .*mph te. The picture opens "No Man's Land," and you have ? o .oca what you Fire going to see or wl a1 connection i, may have with the story. Y/ou know thai the- scenes are fascinating and the photogrnV)h> is as bcautif ; as you ever have looked a'. And then, out of the shell torn earth, crawls "The Lone Wolf" with ?" me sage from 1 lie enemy ' ines. Wi ?thai! does some rents i kable work I the; e ? <? mes, and w ! ihr- h im so ; ? ?;? better as a battle-scarred emis? sary than as merely a ccwivei ? lover, which he becomi s later in the play, Wc cannot attempt to tc.ll anything of the plot after this, for "The Lone Wolf" is sent to America, arid the ship on which he sails is filled with Ger? man age.nts and he is 'Jirown over? board and js brought up by U-boaf 5m and he meets Cecelia Brooks, al o on a diplomatic mission. And just when you think that things aj e beginning to straighten out nicely Lon ("nancy steals n cylinder er lirers a bomb or shoots a man. and they ?tart all over again. "The False Faces" ?a ode of the best war melodramas we ever saw. There arc some people in ir who are new to Artcraft audiences. Mary Anderson is the heroine. She seems, somehow, suddenly to have grown up. The last time we saw her she was playing little girl parts with Vitagraph. The villain is Lon Chancy, who has been seen for years with Universal. He is excellent as Eckstrom, the Hun. The picture was directed by trvin V. Willatt and is the pet. production of Thomas Ince.
