STAGE CHILDREN.
They Cannot Compel the Mayor to
Let Them Sing and Dance.

Let Them Sing and Dance.
New York, July 3.-Children who
want to sing aud dance upon the stage
in this city can no longer rely upon
the law of 1892 to compel the mayor
to license them The general term Of
the supreme court handed down deci-
sions yesterday affirming the judgments
Of the lower court, which refused to
madamus the mayor.
Mrs. Alice Sanders, mother of eleven
year-old Zelda Sanders, was unable to
obtain a mandamus to compel the
mayor to consent to the child's singing
in PalmTs theater. Mrs Charlotte
Ever was arrested for allowing her
seven ear-old daughter, Mildred, known
as La Regaloncita, to dance in the
Broadway theater, and Manager Ben
jamin d. Stevens was arrested for
permitting tiny Lillian Kline to sing
in Wang. Mrs. Ever and Manager
Stevens were released, but they joined
Mrs. Sanders in appealing to the
supreme court general term.
The appeals were based ON the CON
tenton that chapter 300 of the laws
of 1892 was intended TO compromise
the differences between those who seek
to keep children off the stage and those
who would put no limit upon their
singing and dancing in public.
Justice Lawrence declares, in his
opinions in all the cases, that he con
ours with the views expressed by JUS
tice Beach in the lower court. Pre-
siding Justice Van Brunt adds that,
If the law of 1892 be a compromise
measure, it is 50 worded that the adyo-
Gates of restricted rights have the
advantage In other words those who
favor public performances by children
are no better off than they We're two
years ago.
