STAGE NEWS
NJ. G or3e Holland, who played
Our am rican Cousin here several
months ago, has been chastised in
New York. The copyright of this
play, as nearly every one knows,
belongs to the heirs OF the late E. a.
SotHern, one of whom, Mr.. Lytton
Sothern, is now playing his fathers
speciality of Dundreary. It came
to the knowledge of the Sotherns
that Mr.. Holland WIS infringing on
their copyright, and their agent,
Mr.. Wall, issued a notice to all
managers, caRioning them against
allowing Holland to perform Our
American Cousin in their theatres.
This broke up Mr.. Hollands appear
ance as Dundreary, and the other
day, meeting Mr.. Wall on Union
>quare, he walked up to that gentle
man, and, ss the Times puts it,
"sa d he considered him so -and-so
and so>and.so; Mr.. Wall was quite
surprised and asked him if he
meant it. Mr.. Holland said he
did, when Mr. Wallis arm worked
quickly, blow fell, and in mo-
ment Mr.. Holland was lyirg on the
sidewalk"
mrs. Langtry's agent called ON
the Home Dramatic CLUB last week
and very courJeOusIy InTor mea them
the tit'e OF the play they were ad-
vertising-A Wire's Peril-belonged
to the Jersey Lily by copyright.
The name had been chosen by the
Club for revised edition of Maud's
Peril, but they cheerfully withdrew
it when they learned Of Mrs. Lang
try's objection.
According to the verdict OF the
actors themselves. A LIES Revenge
waa very poorly done az the matinee,
but vastly imp. owed upon at night;
in the afternoon some OF the lines
were almost inauiible: a LADY in
front sent note to one Of the male
characters enquiring if hig part was
q secret:
Up to last year, there was a tra>
dition that DO theatre in Salt Lake
could b pc to cope successfully
with cifcus: the Silver King did a
good deal to dissipate this idea how
ever. and after Mrs. Lapgtry's per-
Torrance we doubt not that it
will be dispelled altogether.
A speech Of five or six lines, spo-
ken by Crystal, in Hearts o: Oak,
occurs word for word in Maud's
Peril. We suppose as the first was
written by Rerne and the last by
Watts Phillips, it can only be called
one Of those condolences for which
there is no acco@ nting.
Goodwin is drawing crowded
houses in San Francisco in the play
Of Confusion; this is one of the
great successes OF the past season
and is the play in which Mr.. j. D.
White rec6 ntly made a mark: that
gentlemsn's name does not appear
IN the San Francisco cast.
Patti has come to the conclusion
hat the collection of 10 per cent. of

self can attend to, and old Franchi

Tears.
