NEW FRENCH PLAY.


It is said that Sardou's Pamela" is a
great success at the Paris Vaudeville. 1t
was written, as has been reported al
ready, for Madame Rejane, and deals with
the supposed successful efforts OF the hero
inc to rescue the Dauphin from the Tenn
pie in the days of the Terror. The fol-
lowing is the sketch of the CHER scene:
1t has been arranged that washerwoman
shall carry off the prince buried under
dirty clothes. All seems well, when the
as she is required. Pamela comes TO the
rescue, and agrees 70 personate the wash
erwoman. From Barras, who has the
whole conspiracy at his finger tips, put
who hopes 10 make the pretty march
ande'' his dupc and ally, she obtains per-
mission to enter the prison. HIS lnteh-
ton is to arrest the whole party ana use
the little prince as a hostage for the ad-
vancement Of his own interests. He doeos
not know that the linen basket is not to
smuggle Louis beyond the gates, but only
as far as the court yard of the Temple
Friends have burrowed from across the
street into the court yard, and the es-
cape is to be made by that means. Pa
mela's lover, Rene Bergerin, Republican
and patriot, guesses the truth, and, as he
mas charge of the prisoner on the night
Of the proposed rescue, the outlook is dis
nal. There is a strong scne between the
two, in which Pamela appeals TO his bet
ter nature 20 allow them to carry out
their good work. At the moment he re-
fuses, but he finally relents. and becomes
the main factor in the escape. In the last
scene the little Dauphin is found on the
suniit banks of the Seine surrounded by
his friends. The acting OF Rejane is high
" commended.

1.-THE COARSE SHIRT"

A comedy which is reported to have
made emphatic hits in Berlin and Vienna
is "The Coarse Shirt" by Herr Karl
weiss, who has already written two or
three successful pieces. 1t tells the story
of a self made man who has amassed
fortune. His son becomes infected by
sociaHstic ideas, and, although not de-
spising luxury himself. goes about prating
of the wrongs of labor and of the way in
which his father squeezed his money out
of the poor. Finally, the old man, to give
the young one a lesson, announces that he
is ruined, retires with his spouting son
and fashionable daughter into cheap
tenement, and leaves them to earn their
own living and his. The rough experience
drives all theoretical nonsense out of their
heads. and when he confesses the trick
he has played, they are quite ready to en-
JOY the benefits money can provide with
out troubling themselves about the in
iduities of capital. OF course, there is
love story mixed up with it all.

"oUIDA" ON TROUSERS.

"Ouida'' has been Illuminating against
trousers in Cosmopolitan. That harm
less necessary garment seems to her ''the
eliminating point in male attire of ugli-
ness, indecency, unsuitability and anti
hygienic stupidity. To be the least pro-
lection against cold its lower regions must
be swathed in the gaiter, its upper COW
cred by the ulster. 1t is a garment which
conceals all symmetry of proportion yet
most impudently suggests nudity. 1t is
certainly shapeless thing, which may be
pulled on in a minute or two. but there
its sole merit ends" "Ouida" wants more
floating" costume for men, She instan-
ces the umbrella skirt of the manly Gre
tan soldier. She is convinced that what
men need for grace, decency and warmth
is the ballet dress. 1t may take more
than minute or two" to adjust it, but
it will show the fine symmetry of the god
like lig without being impudent, and
though perchance sometimes chilly, 1t will
be hygienic.

Woman and Her World
czAR1NA HAS SMALLPOX.

A dispatch from Vienna says: Within
few weeks of the date on which, &C
cording to official announcement, the Car
ina is about to become mother. she has
been stricken with smallpox. Two weeks
ago. as runor has it, Count Mouravieff,
the MuscoVite minister of foreign affairs.
gave magnificent concert and supper in
honor Of the Gar and Czarina, all the
other members of the imperial family who
happened to be in st. Petersburg being
present. The count complained of feeling
Ill on the night of the entertainment, his
looks corroborating his words. and he was
forced TO take to his bed on the following
day.
Forty-eight hours later the physicians
finally diagnosed his case as a very sew
ere attack of smallpox. It was there
fore taken for granted that he had al
ready been in the first stages of that hor-
rlble malady at the moment when he was
doing honors of his official residence to
the emperor and empress. Since then the
utmost uneasiness has prevailed at the
Russian court, and both Nicholas and his
been under continual and close supervis-
ion Of their medical attendants on the
lookout for any symptoms of smallpox.
What renders the matter so particularly
serious in the case of the young empress
OF Russia is the danger of the malady
frustrating the hopes of the nation to the
effect that she will at length give birth to
an heir TO the crown. At the present mo-
ment she has two daughters, neither of
whom ca nhave any chance of succeeding
to the throne before all the male mem
bers of the house of Romanoff have dis
appeared from the scene. Until the en-
press gives birth to a boy it is Grand
Duke George who remains Czarevitch and
heir to the crown. Next in line stands
Grand Duke Michael now years old.
Then comes the late Cars three brothers
Vladimir, Alexis and Sergius.
Latterly smallpox has wept aloof from
royalty. Indeed there is but one princess
now living-namely, Matilda of Saxony,
niece Of the king and daughter of the heir
apparent, whose features are pitted by the
scars Of this disease, and with the excep-
ton, it is necessary to go back to the last
King Louis XIV of France, his father, the
Great Dauphin; Queen Mary II of Eng
land, the consort of Emperor Joseph II Of
Austria, and number of the children of
King Charles and King James II of Eng
land all succumbed thereto. The great
Empress Maria Theresa had her comeIi-
ness destroyed by the malady, as had also
Queen Elizabeth of England.
king William III of England was only
rescued from death by this malady
through the devotion of one of his pages,
young Count Bentinck, who, when the
eruption refused to come to the surface,
took him into his arms, the animal
warmth producing the desired effect. The
page lost the sight of an eye. as well as
his good looks, through his devotion. but
received his reward later on, when King
William made him prime minister OF
Great Britain, and likewise bestowed
upon him the Dukedom of Portland, to-
gether with vast estates.

During the early part of dinner re-
Gently given in Washington. the guest of
honor, young married woman who is
the proud mother of two very small boys,
suddenly paused, with a stratled look, in
the midst of an animated conversation
with her host, and cried: There, if
didn't forget those boys again! Have you
a telephone in the house, and may use
it?" Her host, says the Argonant, con-
Quoted her to the telephone, and presently
she returned. 81 do hope you will pardon
me-" she said; but, you see, L always
have George and Eddie say their prayers
to me before they go to sleep. In the hur-
~ of getting off, forgot it tonight, so I
have just called up their nurse. She
brought the children TO the phone, and
they have just said their prayers over the
wire, so my mind is relieved.

REAUTIFUL SCENERY.

The London Daily Mail gives some an
ticipatory notes concerning the scenery in
Mr.. George Alexander's revival of Much
Ado About Nothing" 1t says: 1.-The court
yard of Leonato, with its crowd of noble
lords and ladies. and the ball, which is
to be a most elaborate spectacle-a gor-
geous chamber, with the throng within
and the merrymakers on the balconies
under the blue of the moonlit sky-are
sure to be delightful. Amid the charm
ingly poetical surroundings Of the orange
grove on the brow of the hill, with the
city below and the blue sea in the dis
lance, we hear Sigh no More, Ladies'
Then comes a street, hung across with
fishing nets, with a long straight flight of
steps leading to a church in a square, the
dim lights of which shine through the
great windows. The church scene itself
is one of the grandest Of all. It is faith
full reproduction of a chapel in the Cathe-
dral of Messina. The organ peals out
while the bridegroom's party enters, fol-
lowed by the procession of priests and
acolytes. 1t is a wonderful picture"

ELIZABETH ON TOO TOUGH

For their performance last week in the
Hall of the Inner Temple, the London
Elizabethan society selected Beaumont
and Fletchers comedy The COXcOmb."
Radical extirpation is the only treatment
applicable to some of the scenes. The
Coxcomb is one Antonio, who filings his
wife into the arms of a friend, and the
underplot concerns itself with the ad-
ventures of Viola, a maiden of spotless
purity. who is sorely prosecuted by more
than one admirer before she falls in with
and forgives her rakish lover, Ricardo.
The London World deals very sharply
with the performance. 1t says: You
might search the whole length, and even
the whole breadth. of the Elizabethan
drama for play more fagrantly unsuited
for revival than The COxcomb,' by Beau
mont and Fletcher. The main plot is
nauseous in its absurdity. It has to be
made entirely incomprehensible, and its
eliminating incident suppressed, before a
modern audience can tolerate it for a mo-
ment. Even the underplot. despite some
pretty writing, is merely nawkish. and is.
moreover, so full OF coarseness that half
of the dialogue has to be omitted. The
play, in short, is n characteristic spev.-
men of the hack work of the period When
all the plays Of intrinsic strength and
charm had been exhausted, ii might have
been interesting enough to let US see, for
once in a way, what the contemporaries of
Shakespeare could be got TO accept;
though even then, more presentable
piece Of hack work might easily have been
found. As il is. while the treasures of the
period apart from Shakespeare are prac-
ticaIly untouched. the policy which Sc
lects The Coxcomb' for elaborate revival
is incomprehensible and surely indefen-
sible." The abilities OF Mr.. Poel. the
manager, arc summed up thus compre-
hensively: This man Of unique energy.
tact, perseverance. and ali the rest Of It,
is at the same time the most obstinately
wrong headed manager and stage mana
ser that ever chose n play or conducted a
rehearsal. He seems TO study the Eliza
bethan stage in order 10 do precisely the
reverse of what reasonable conjectures. If
not actual stage direction. assures Us tat
the Elizabethans did"
