MIME. cALvE WOULD RETIRE.
Prefers Dom este Life to the Glamour
and Unreality of Stage Life.

Nine Calves recent assertion that she
longs for domestic life and hates the
glamOuS and unreality of the operate
stage upon which she has won Such trl-
umphs causes no surprise to those VINO
know her and have enjoyed her comb
dence-
In spite of the voice with which Sne
is gifted and the success which mas
been hers in every country that she has
ever sung in, she AYERS that she mas
been misplaced in the scheme OF me
and that her real and only happy field
experienced this odd dislike for her pro-
fession.
But it is not art that Calve has no
love for but the means of it's expression
which it finds on the stage with the TN
sci and the paint and the Illusion Inns
she hates and longs to be free from.
Some time ago when Nine Ca1Ve was
staying in New York she conversed
freely about her longingS for a lie IN
which she might be free from the slaV-
cry in which an opera singer must i've,
slavery not only to the public and 10
her managers who hold her contract,
but also to her voice, her good looks
and the retention of her vogue with the
public-little matters which require
quite as much attention as the prac-
ticing of the scales DuSe is the only
woman of the stage who has been dar-
ing enough to defy this demand for de-
tail as to her private life and its suffer-
ings.
Calves idea of happiness Is to sing,
to study, to work, to play, to act when
she chooses. This is the dream of this
mountain born and mountain-bre child
of a French father and a. Spanish
mother. Her childish longings for free
lived her stage experiences and her
successes

PERLEY ABANDoNs STARS.
No Longer Runs the Risk of Favor
ties Cutting Lose From Him

Evidently that astute manager of op-
cratic productions, Frank l. Perley, has
concluded that a single star attraction
is no longer the shining beacon of sue
cess it formerly was. Mr.. PerleyS an
noying experience last season with the
capricious Alice Nielsen and Marguerite
sylvia this season has caused him
to change his methods. Instead of a
solitary but variable star. Mr. Perley
this season presents a constellation
Manager Perley, by methods known
only to himself. has enticed from the
operate concert and vaudeville stage
list of principals that might be depend
ed on to entertain with quip and song
if librettists and playwrights had never
been heard of.
Walter Jones, always one of the most
popular of stage good fellows, may not
head the bills. but he has a unique rec
ord that any actor might envy, for he
it was that gave the stage a distinct
and living character known as the
stage tramp" This nondescript crea-
ton of Jones' fancy first saw the light
in 1892" wherein he painted the ind
genous American hobo in such vivid
colors that the play-going world APP
plauded and Jones became famous in a
night; Since that time countless lmita-
tors have paid him the Sincerest fiat
terry Mr.. Jones should be willing to
rest with his laurels, as it is given to
few to originate a living character eth

figure studying rapid transit problems

Another star in the Perley company
is the ever popular singing comedian
Digby Bell, the mention of whose name
recalls the comic opera triumphs of the
McCaull and Duff opera companies, the

The Decentralization of Mrs Stoves
Novel in New York.

In William A. Brady's revival of
Uncle Toms Cabin in New York,
one scene is found that is not ordinar-
lily included in the play, probably be-
cause it calls for a better order of act
ing than is usually to be had in COM
panies that present the old melodrama-
1t was, however, in the original dram
atization. This is a scene between
Cassie and Legree in the last act. in
which the slavedriver tells the story of
the matricide, and it is made the most
of by Theodore Roberts and Miss
Berolde. Roberts played the part of
Candy in the original Arizona" seen
in Topeka two years ago. The revival
of the scene in question, however, is
not the only innovation diScoverable in
Mr.. Brady's presentation. Rarely is
Uncle Tom whipped on the stage.
Hitherto the sound of groans and the
crack of a lash have conveyed the inn
preston that somebody was being
thrashed somewhere, but the operation
in full view is a novelty. A leather
undershirt enables Edward Harrigan to
take the beating with equanimity- In
cidentally, it is declared that when
Harriet Beecher Stowe went with Mark
Twain to see Uncle Tom acted for
the first time the cries from the wings
during this episode alarmed her con-
siderably. Unused to the theater and
it's method, the old lady covered and
asked: Mr. Glen mems, what are they
DOING"
light" shuddered the gentle au-
thoress, II wish they wouldn't"
The Brady revival of Uncle Toms
Cabin which is about to come back
to Brooklyn, is not the only product q
of the Harriet Beecher Stowe diana
that has introduced a notable cast. A
company of as much or more reputa-
ton was seen in the piece in 1872 at
the Boston theater, Boston, where the
house stock organization played the
piece for several months. Louis James
was the Simon Legree of the presenta-
ton, and, at that time, he was as we'll
known is Theodore Roberts, who as
sumes the role for Mr. Brady L. r.
Shewell, the Tom, was a great local
favorite, as were Portia Elba, the
Topsy, and Dan Maginnis, the Phineas
Fletcher. Marie Wainwright is credit
ed with having given a fine perform
ance of Eliza. Charles Leslie Allen, the
father of Viola Allen, impersonated
Marks, while Mrs. Allen was the Emme-
line. George Parks was cast for Har-
ris. In the matter of supernueraries,
Mr.. Brady has far the better of the
Boston impresario, who advertised at
the head of his progra nme Forty real
negroes are employed throughout the

too good a lover to be thrown away on
mere melodrama-"
Mr.. Haines is a fine specimen of
physical manhood, being over six feet
tall and would be noticeable whether
on or off the stage for his military
bearing. His eyes are large and brown
and his hair is dark He was married
several years ago to Miss Genevieve
Grevil1e and in her he finds his Severest
critic She never misses a play when
he is to appear and she n axes care
full study of every movement and ges-
ture made by him; and after the play
points out to him where some slight
change might improve mis- part. Mrs.
Haines, who is an actress herself,
travels as understudy in the same COM
pany as her husband. She is very am
bilious for him and it is her dearest
wish to see him starring with his own
company. She heartily believes with
Miss Allen that he has a great future
before him.. If Mr.. Haines has any fad
it is for dogs, and wherever he travels
his pet dog Bob goes with him. Moth
ing succeeds like success and it is
pleasing to note that his fathers preju-
dice against the stage has been over
come and that now he is justly proud
of his talented son. Mr.. Haines ap-
peared in Topeka several seasons ago
in 1.-The Cherry Pickers.' In a recent
number of the Dramatic Mirror and in
the Decen Der Munsey appear excellent
pictures of this popular actor.
