There is a little woman who daintily
alights from a Broadway car on Fortieth
street about o'clock every evening and
trips her wav to the stage door of the En-
pire Theater, where she has a pleasant
word for the doorkeeper and any and all
the stage mechanics that may happen to
be in that vicinity. One would hardly
imagine that this is Miss Maud Adams, who
has set all New York talking, and who.
by the way, is playing to the largest re-
ceipts of any attraction in the United States
at this writing. This gifted lady has met
with enough success in the last two months
to turn even the head of Bernhard. She
is the same little homebody She has moth
ing to say for publication and does not de-
pend upon sensational press work for her
artistic as well as financial triumph. Miss
Adamsss whole life on ard OF the stage is
as pure as a crystal She realizes that Mr..
Charles Ffohman knew just what he was
doing when he sent her out as star. She
has perfect faith IN his Judgment, and has
good reasons for same, as since her OPEN
ing night IN Washington. followed by Ball
finore and her two months engagement
so far in this city. she has played to more
money than did either Olga Nethersoe,
Ada Rehan. Julia Marlowe or Fanny Da~
