AN IDEAL LABOR LEADER.
Henry K. Webster in Leslie's Maga-
 zine for August.


 We all have a iabor-saving way of classifying unfamiliar objects and let. ting types stand for them. Classes of people among whose members we have no personal acquaintance all look alike to us: and wben we .,ay sailor or socialist" or Filipino" we DOS sess the inestimable advantage of see ing a picture of him before our minds eye.
 In the minds of most people the picture of the labor leader is as strong as any and anything but pleasant. \ decade ago the tabor leader probably fitted into this mental picture without an exception. There are still many of the sort. notably patricl; Cornelius Shea. of the Teamsters' union. But these men dwindle in importance be- fore the new type-SamueI Gompers and Andrew Fursueth. of the Sea mems union. Few people. cOmpara- lively speaking. have even heard of Mr Furuseth.
 There is no doubt tbout this-that he is the tireIess. efficient. preeminent champion of the sea-faring men in this country.
 He once argued before congress against requirements that there shall he only seyenty-two cubic feet of space in fne forecastle for every sea man shipped before the mast as too small.

ONION, Dec. 20-Yet another big
init" must be recorded for that
uncommonly successful young An
glo-American dramatist, Hubert
Henry Davies, and as q consequence
play-goers at home will have to walt
a while longer for the return visit TO
the United States which Sir Charles
Wyndham had planned to make early
in January.
while ago, when Ethel Barrymore
played his Cynthia" over here, a con-
viction gained ground that Davies had
lest some OF his dexterity. for the play
was second-rate and a failure. But 1t
speedily developed that Cynthia was
not the latest, but very early work
OF the young playwright, and IL any
proof were needed that the author of
cousin Kate Is well up among the
men who are to be reckoned WITH II Is
to be found In his new piece, capt.
Drew on Leave" with which Wyndham
Is now packing his theater IN ST. Mar
tins lane.
oddly enough, both this play. and the
other Davies comedy. which Wyndham
produced, Mrs. Gorringe's Necklace,
were slated BY the critics as unreal,
but their success seems to prove that
the young playwright knows his public.
The Captain Drew" of the present
piece is an old sea dog with q strong
tendency for Irritation. one OF the
guests at country house, he makes
love to his hosts wife Just for lark"
and not only wins her affection, but
falls hopelessly In love with her HIM
self. upon which, Mortified at what he
had done, he flies from the scene and
takes himself of to sea again. Thus
summed up. 1t all sounds Il little bald
but the thing is done so deity and
Davies has fitted Sir Charles Wyndham
and Mary Moore with SUCH congenial
parts that an unmstakable success has
been scored at the New theater.
And that s why. instead Of playing
only six weeks In LIldon and then
hurrying off to America as he had in
tended, Wyndham is staying on in the
metropolis indefinitely. He will nave
to leave the New theater almost imme-
diately, II Is true, for that playhouse
is leased 10 Julia Nelson and Fred
Terry, but Captain Drew on Leave"
Is merely to be transferred to the play
house in Charing Cross road which
bears Wyndham's name, and will be
continued there as long as Its popular
ity lasts. Meanwhile Wyndham's
American tour is expected to be made
some time during the spring when the
Davies play Is practically sure to be the
attraction.
Meanwhile perhaps the chief
topic in theatrical circles here
Is the rather lively spat that has
been going on between playwright
Henry Arthur Jones and playwright II.
C. Carton. in the course of which some
excessively tart things have been said

NEWS OF THE LONDON STAGE,

II all sprang from that now famous in
taryiew whic 4 Jones gave out I'm Amer
lea and In which he said that the Eng
lish stage was given up to "tomfool-
cry" on his return Mr., Jones stool
for that statement and added that
since "Mrs. Danes Defense" no serious
drama had scored a financial success
in London. Perhaps the author or
Lord and Lady Algy" who has pro-
duced several successful comedies In
the last year or so. had been "triile
nettled by that word "tomfoolerS,'
ANYHOW he ventured TO question Jones
curacy--wherupon the latter offered
to give ESQ to charity If Carton would
name q successful serious piece since
Mrs. Dane" Carton promptly in
stanced Pinero's Iris" and Lefty"
THE Walls OF Jericho and Leah
Kleschna."
Jones's reply was to deny that either
Jericho" or Leah" was a serious
drama-which he defines as "a study
of modern life--sustalned TO an newt
able unconventional unhappy end"
He would not be drawn as TO the
Pinero plays--for a perhaps obvious
reason. As a matter of fact, IT was not
understood that either of them did
more than pay expenses. Accordingly
the argument has ragged round the
question whether 1.-THE Walls of Jeri-
cho" and Leah Kleschna' are serious
drama, and the rather heated contro-
bersy between the two playwrights
leaves It unsettled. SO nobody gets
Mr. Jones' G so.
BY the time these lines appear in
print, William Gillette win be back in
America again, and IL is supposed here
that he is a little sore Shortly be-
fore he left. the actor announced that
he would play no more I'm this country.
and the reason undoubtedly is that he
Is disappointed in British audiences
and critics Neither liked "Clarlce,'
which Mr.. Gillette recently told a
friend he considered his best play, or
"The Painful Predlcament of Sherlock
Holmes" his little one-act piece about
the great detectibe and "A female luna
tic aud so, to punish them, the actor
isn't coming back no more" OF
course everyone hopes he will change
his mind. and In the meantime curlos-
ity prevails to see how America VIII
treat "Claricc."
Forbes Robertson seems to have
come another cropper. TO most folk
who saw Mrs. Grundy" on the first
night II appeared doubtful II this new
work by Madeleine Lucette Ryley
would duplicate the success of her
Mice and Men" and the signs now
indicate that this belief was justified.
When there was talk. a week or two
ago, Of moving The Prodigal Son 20
the Scala theater It appeared that
Forbes Robertson was willing--despite
the fact that he was playing Mrs.
Grundy' there. nightly-and now 1t Is
announced that the actor has influenza.
and so his new playhouse win have to
be closed. II Will reopen shortly-per-
haps with Mrs, Grundv." Perhaps!
