Mrs. Gilbert Memorial

The Mrs. Gilbert Memorial associ-
alton, whose president is Thomas w.
Pittman, and which numbers among
it's directors many of the most promi-
nent men and women in New York, is
distributing circulars asking for con-
tributions to a fund of $4,000 for the
erection of a memorial to the late Mrs.
G. H. Gilbert
In making its appeal, the society
says: THE chief aim of this movement
is not alone to commemorate the sweet,
gentle, noble woman and gifted artist
who used her profession as a public
educator, but rather to perpetuate
life" By erecting his imper-
ishable expression of appreciation of
the purity and nobility of Mrs. Gill
bert's life, we overcome much of the
prejudice entertained against the
stage, and encourage the raising of the
moral tone of the plays produced on It,
Checks should be made pay
able and forwarded to the Lincoln
Trust company, POS Fifth avenue, New
York City"
Everybody will approve of a fitting
memorial to Mrs. Gilbert, says the
New York Post, but that it can ever
exert any apprecable influence upon
the manners and morals of the stage
is a rather fanciful suggestion. About
the only hope for the theater lies in
complete reorganization after collapse.

placed in the basement, which forces
the air through reservoirs filled with
ice and then conducted to the audi
torium through large pipes, while the
heated air is drawn from the theater
by a suction fan in the ceiling.
There are rumors, not well substan-
tiated as yet, of a possible revival
at the Scala theater in London of "Di-
plomacy," with Forbes Robertson, John
Hare and Lady Bancroft in the cast.
1t is said, moreover, that John Hare
has made up his mind to revive next
season Mr.. Grundy's "An Old Jew"
which so excited the wrath of the Lon
don critics.
Daniel Frohman announces that his
Lyceum theater will be reopened on
September with Nat Goodwin in THE
Beauty and the Barge" the comedy by
W.. w. Jacobs and l.. N. Parker, which
was. one of the greatest successes Of
the London season at the Haymarket
theater. Mr.. Goodwin, of course, will
play the part taken there by Cyril
Maude, and ought to find in it an ad-
mirable opportunity for the exercise of
his peculiar vein of humor.

The Drama in London

Dramatic motives have suddenly
changed in London, says the New
York Tribune. When the autumn sea-
son opened managers We're convinced
that London playgoers wished to be
amused, so that they could forget for an
evening the anXieties of business and
the distractions of life. At the end of
six months they are equally emphatic
in declaring that theatergoers take
pleasures sadly and insist upon having
some didactic teaching. During the
interval THE Walls of Jericho" at the
Garrick theater has drawn month af-
ter month crowded houses, successfully
rivaling so amusing a farce as Beauty
and the Barge" and Mr.. Barrie's come
dy of childlike topsyturvydom, Peter
PAM" and, apart from it's satire as a
comedy of manners, it has a moral
purpose and is a vigorous sermon, di-
rected against the foibles of smart So
ciety.
1t would be, however, a rash infer
ence to conclude from the success of
this play that the public is weary of
inane farce and didactic plays. Mr..
Sutro himself laughs at the idea that
1.-The Walls of Jericho" is sermonette
and promises his friends that the new
play which he is writing for Mr.. Bour-
CHER will be something quite differ
ept and more dramatic. What is per-
haps mora significant than the drawing
power of this single drama is the de-
cline Of musical comedy. There is no
lack of it at the theaters, but the pro-
grams now have to be changed more
frequently and there is less money to
be made out of frothy entertainments
with musical jlngles and topical songs
Experienced observers like George
Edwardes have been forecasting for
many weeks a public revolt against
musical comedy and the signs are
multiplied that more earnest drama isl

Bernard ShaW'S Women

Plays pleasant and unpleasant
largely unpleasant! At last we near
the nub of the Shaw system. The
women of the plays file before us, a
sneering, impertinent ironic, self-satis-
fed battalion. There is Blanche Sarto-
ruis of "Widowers' Houses" as disa-
greeable a huzzy as you may encounter
in literature. Yet that she is lifelke
we must perforce admit. The group Of
girls in 1.-The Philanderer" are all pro-
nounced and unpleasant. None but
born woman-hater could have so un-
masked Grace Tranfield and Julia
Craven in that memorable first act.
And what first acts Shaw writes! He
let's loose all his brilliant artillery Of
dialectic, wit and caprice, and thus il
is that often the succeeding acts are
thin or gasp for lack of atmosphere
Sylvia the pert Sylvia of '"The Phil
anderer," is model for many of Shaw's
sparrowlike soubrettes-smart little
demons in petticoats who drive their
elders to distraction with their chatter.
In MRS. Warren's Profession the
daughter is disagreeable, hard
headed, hard-hearted girl-and you
can't blame her with such a mother.
You Never Can Tell" which enjoys
such success in. New York this season,
furnishes it's quota of disagreeable
women, though they are presented with
such skill by the playwright that they
almost seem sympathetic. But they
are all off the same parental block;
Gloria, priggish, superior; Dolly fresh
and impertnent; Mrs. Clandon, the
New Woman as she was conceived
twenty-five years ago. The gay humor,
the biting humor of these girls, old and
young! Satire, Mr.. Shaw, pure satire.
Candida is a parody of the Womanly
Woman and a mouthpiece for the
SkaVion philosophy. Prossie, the old
maid typist, is more real and also more
amusing. And how we'll the Irishman
draws middle class life! Only by a |
sheer eXaggeration could we call these
women agreeable. Even the smiling
Candida has a sub-acid quality that
leaves a queer taste in your memory. |
