Belasco Theater.

The Darling of the Gods a drama of
old Japan, written by David Belasco and
John Luther Long, is presented this week
at the Belasco Theater. Nothing that Mr..
Belasco has ever done has earned more
sincere commendation or more deserved
public approval than this effort. The scenic
mounting given by Mr.. Belasco is one. that
has been equaled only by his own later
productions. THE Darling of the Gods
was first played in this city three years
ago. Since then It has been seen in the
larger cities of the country and has been
presented in the United States more than a
thousand times.
The cast that is presenting the piece this
season is notable. 1t is headed by Percy
Haswell and Robert T. Haines. both very
popular in this city. Mr. Haines originated
the part of Kara, which he still plays and
his performance has always been one of
the most attractive features OF the pro-
