We are assured that Maude Adams
left behind her at the Empire the most
remarkable record in the history OF
that theater, says an Eastern paper.
No such receipts as have steadily
flowed in since her debut have been
known at the Empire. Neither Mr..
Drew in his most popular role and III
his best week, uor the Secret Service
company in its remarkably successful
engagement, nor the stock company in
the plays that drew some extraordinar-
lily large houses. have touched the
box office figures that this YOUNG
woman has drawn in The Little Min
lister. When Mr.. Drew had sll'oou
written down as a single weeks re-
CENTS at the Empire he was Thought
to have made a wonderful record but
the stock company went him SOD bet
ter. The Secret Service top notch was
50, 400. But along comes Miss Adams
who has steadily played to more thau
record" figures, and during the last
week set the mark at $4,000.
