Another new offering OF the week, but
one which has not NJ yet caused any
wild stampede on the part OF the pub
Ito boXofiiCe wards was Amelia Blng-
hams production OF "Mademoiselle
MarnL" by Henri Dumay, The piece
Is French decidedly so, IN all that the
term implies. The plot deals with the
love story of Fablenne Marni Paris
ian actress who is the illegltlmate
daughter OF Baron 81. German. There
Is young lieutenant who Is engaged
10 marry the legitimate daughter OF the
Baron but he meets Fabenne falls in
love with her and there you are IT
IL not plot that woGld meet with
the approval OF a Sunday school teach
or by any means, but II gives Miss
Bingham "A chance 10 be bold, blonde,
dashlng adventures, and that is about
all that Is necessary A spade is called
spade In the production and verbal
altar Of roses is not sprlnlSled over the
intense scenes. The production is Law
lsh, almost as much so as was that OF
Miss Blngham's lamentable "Olympe. -
Her gowns are OF course gorgeous and
numerous and the famlnine fancy in
this respect Is well pleased. While
the vehicles selected for Miss Binghams
stellar ambitions may not always be
exactly IN accordance with the public
taste, yet she spares no expense IN
surrounding herself with adequate sup

Frederic de Velleville, Henry Kolker,

production as to scenery, costumes and
elaborate accessories that marked the
long run Of the piece at Belascos
theater took the Academy OF Music
and It's packed audience by storm on
Monday night In "rhe Darling Of the
Gods This is undoubtedly the most
stupandous production ever brought to
the academy, Mr.. Belasco having taken
advantage OF the extra stage room at
that house to enlarge the production
in several directions. The strange wlerd
tale OF old Japan, In the days Of the
crossword men, has lost none Of its
powers Of fascination since last seen
here and the dramatic story, repete
with intense human interest seems still
TO reach out over the footllghts and
grasp the hearts and minds Of the au-
dience Just as II did when first pre-
scented at the Belasco. The record OF
this piece has been remarkable one,
Following its 70 months run at the
Belasco, II was taken 10 London and
presented by Beerbohm Tree at His
