Madame Modjeeka refuses the repre-.
sentatives OF exclusively dramatic jour
mails the courteeies commonly afforded
to the press because at some period in
her career she was roasted by such q
paper. She is accordingly receiving
some delicate attentions from the ORA
matte News that must be exceedingly
pleasant to her and her count.
Manager David Henderson denies the
statement by the Chicago Times that
the Windy city has no stock company.
He Justly claims that his own organiza-
ton, which played Chicago nine months
last year and seldom lesves his theater
there for more than month at time,
is not only stock company, but the
largest and best one in America.
During his coast tour James O'Neill
contemplates presenting new play
called Napoleon, which was written
especially for him by A. ID. Haven, the
author of Josephine. Mr.. O'NeilPs re-
marksble resemblance to the first Ma
poleon has often been commented on
consequently his impersonation OF the
"Little Corporal" should be most
artistic one.
H. w. Roseborn, late manager of The
Rainmakers OF Syria, discharged Katha-
rine Germaine (Mrs. David Biers) be-
cause he considered that 'she looked
like barrel' on the stage. Miss Ger
maine did not like RoseboYn's judg-
ment, 80 she secured one from SYRIA
cuse jury for 1925, which looks more
like barrel to the unhappy manager
than she did.
One Stuart, minister at Chattanooga,
Ca, says that he would sooner own
stock in hell than in a thater." There
are no fleas on Mr.. Stuart, for he knows
which place pays the best Every man
should embark in business he is &C.
quainted with rather than one of which
he knows nothing. Therefore. since Mr..
Stuart takes no stock in theaters let him
go to hell for some.
Rose ana Charles Coghlan have had
more trouble. 1t appears that dear
Charlie. he who is living with Kuhne
Beverage as his wife, has been suffering
with hiccoughs. During his sickness
Miss Beveridge attempted reconcile
alton with Rose by going to the theater
and informing her that her brother was
dying. The ruse did not work, and Rose
sent her husband to the bedside of her
brother. who then happened to be on
the highway to recovery. Coghlsn, at
the time of his marriage with Mise Bev-
eridge, was discharged from his sisters
company and Maurice Barrymore en-
gagged in his place. and it was only after
his reconciliation with his first wife, the
mother of his daughter, that his sister
reinststed him in her company, and this
was, according to the story of member
of the company, only on the condition
that he should stick to his first wife and
keep away from Miss Beveridge. The
latter, however, had stated to reporters
that she would win her husband back
when he came to New York, and there
seems to be little doubt that she cue
ceeded in so doing. 1t is now said that
Charles is out to stay, unless he con-
sents to give up Miss Beveridge.
