Mile Zittella, of Flynn & Sheridan s Big
Sensation Company, was at one time an
aspiring author and playwright; but like
others, her genius never found Its way
beneath the border lights OF a theater.
When young some of her compositions re-
ceived marked attention from several critics
of Paris, who declared that they contained
real merit. This encouraged her to the
extent of writing several comedies; these
were submitted TO prominent managers of
Paris, but they were regularly returned
with the same monotonous reply of fault
contained in the manuscript.
Determined to know if her compositions
We're really read by those to whom she
sent them she hit upon the folio wing plan.
She presented NJ. Coquelin, the famous
comedian, a manuscript tied with red
tape, and begged him to give an impartial
opinion The comedian promised to do SO.
After waiting several weeks Zittella called
upon the actor and asked:

pruning before it would be fit for pro-
duction. I must decline; unwillingly of
course, but l really cannot use it,

The comedian was confused; he toyed
with the manuscript; still criticising It's

THE ACTRESS AND THE CAMERA

The lavish use Of photographs OF actors
and actresses and groups taken from stage
scenes, which is quite q part OF the adver-
tising scheme of the advance agent nova
days, is a recent innovation. In 1880
very few pictures were used. A phOtogrd-
pher about that time arranged an invention
by which ne took a Combined electric and
flashIight picture OF a scene in play, rep
rcsenting a good many stage figures, and
the artistic result was clever.
Flashlights are not successful so far IA
likenesses are concerned, but they are adj
mirabIe in that they depict the spirit OF
the scene or dramatic situation. Some
manager, not liking the results OF thOss
early days, began taking the people and
the gowns and scenery in sections To the
photographers gallery. and this worked
so we'll that the practice was adopted by
all other managers. After this came the
photographing OF the stars and their
supports. Up to that time prominent aC-
treSses received royalties from phOtOgra-
piers on the sale OF their pictures, but the
custom is now obsolete.

The Miacos, with whom Mana ger Whitesell
has associated himself, are not the same
as he who owns 1.-The City Club, though
of the same family. Tom Miaco is the
vaudeville manager, Al Miaco adheres to
his familys traditions and is a panto-
mimist. He is famous as a clown. He,
with the others of his family returns to
the Bijou, where he was playing the night
Lincoln was assassinated. AS he was
telling me this in the Bijou office the other
day, he casually raised his right foot above
the air, ostensibiy to tip the gas jet, but he
turned it behind his head and scratched
his neck 1t was an unexpected and more
than usually impressive bit of contortion.
The new pantomime is called ''The Fairy
Talisman." Besides the four Miacos, the
featured members are Cyrene, the French
dancer who hasrecently been starring, and
the three Martinetti Brothers, acrobats.
These are strong drawing cards with any
who know the profession. Mr.. Whiteseli
has confidence in public appreciation OF
the new company, and will keep it at the
Biieu for two weeks. "Hegan's Alley
