''MarOuSSYa"

Out of darkest Russia there comes
many beautiful works of art, and the
latest profit to the world In this re-
spect is probably "Maroussya," a
drama in a prologue and three acts.
The story of this play is interestingly
described in the Chicago Record Herald
by Countess Lydie Rostoptchine.
Russia is the land of contrasts. On
one hand are the loftiest ideals of art
Both speak with a masterful eloquence
to the young men and maidens, sum-
moning them to the heaven on earth
the highest evolution of the human soul
lin a life devoted either to political ac-
tivity for the amelioration of the lot
OF people or to the service Of art un-
contaminated by any other considera-
tion. Both demand sacrifice of plea
sure, of inclination, sometimes, for the
sake of preserving the ideals uncon-
taminated, of life itself.
In such atmosphere lived Marcus
sya. When her mother died and her
father married an old woman for the
sake of her money, the girl, unable to
endure her stepmother's cruelty. ran
away to her aunt, who joyfully opened
her arms and her doors to her needs.
Believing above all else in the ideal of
art, her gentle soul received terrible
shock when she found that the artist
whom she admired beyond all others
had pandered to the baser instincts of
the people by turning aside his own
lofty purposes in which he had taught
her to believe, and painting a picture
for the possession of which money

other. When she took him to task,
he explained that it was need of money
which made him paint the picture.
Her Indignation knew no bounds. She
declared 1t was proclamation and a

superior wisdom, it designates exagger-
ated sentiments and it had scant SYM
pathy with the beautiful girl when she
refused to marry the artist who loved
her with passion greater even than
Besides, Maroussya had determined to
be an artist, too; and in the flush of
excitement at the prospect of becoming
an actress her heart had no room for
any passion but the work to which she
had chosen to dedicate herself.
With the highest ideals before her
eyes, the young girl resolved to go to
Paris to study, to strive and to sue
ceed. In that world, as in the world of
life, beauty is the open sesame to most
gifts with no niggard hand on the
young idealist. One day she met a
famous dramatist. She smiled upon
him, and for the sake of that smile he
introduced her to the manager of the
Theater de la Renaissance, with a view
bility of exercising the art she loved
was everything. To him art was Moth
ing. He saw only beautiful woman
who had but to appear on the stage
for all Paris to fall at her feet because
of that beauty.
In "all Paris few of the men had
greater vogue than the due de Lune-
vile, whose beauty loving eyes were
enchained by the charms of the would
be actress, into whose favor he in
gratiated himself, not by praising the
fairness of her face or the symmetry of
her figure, as less clever men would
have done, but by the subtle appeal to
what she valued more-her talent and
the expression of his belief in her sue
cess. With her enthusiasm, work
scarcely existed. 1t transformed itself
Into pleasure and at the dress rehearsal
OF the play in which she was to make
her debut all the friends of the man
ager and all the actors, as we'll as the
intimate circle of those who are priv
ileged to attend these functions in
Paris, applauded her to the echo and
loudly proclaimed their belief in her
triumph.

The plot succeeded to her utmost de-
sire AT the moment when she seemed
to hold success within the hollow of
her hand Maroussya was overwhelmed
with failure, and the curtain that
should have fallen on tumult of ap-
plause descended in ominous silence.
For such failure few have any SYM

the only words of consolation. that
could bring balm to her wounded spirit.
That man was the due de Luneville.

for his return. Then she resolved to
go to Paris and learn from him the
reason of his neglect. To her surprise
he told her that she had not the slight
est place in his affections that he
cared only for her beauty while it was
new to him, and he cynically suggested
that others of her admirers would
gladly pay their homage and be wor
shipper at its shrine instead of him. So
he shattered the ideal of love she had
built up for herself when her rival had
shattered her ideal of art.

the table lay a revolver which the duke
always carried with him. Maroussya

it to her breast she put bullet through
her heart and died.
Yet death was kinder to her than life
for she drew her last breath in the

r1-HB extraordinary demand for seats

STNHE extraordinary demand for seats
for the production Of Ibsen's
"Ghosts" at the Belasco theater
last week was only a repetition Of what
happened on a similar occasion at the
Burbank earlier in the season and It
may mean that Los Angeles has reach
ed q stage where 1t would warrant a
frequent production Of the modern
classics. 1t Is true that Los Angeles
is at some distance from the greater
artistic centers and its people must de-
pend for any extended acquaintance
with the drama either on the stock
companies or the book stores
Harry Mestayer's very ambitious and
laudable efforts have resulted in the
only opportunity Los Angeles has had
Of seeing on the stage any work Cf

matist who has made himself one of

perhaps indicates that the people would
appreciate performances of DOLLS
House, HeuQa OIdDler, INOSlileE-
sholm," and the others.
Outside Of book form Los Angeles
has no knowledge whatever of Maurice
Maeterlinck D'Annunzio, Sudermann,
Paul Hervieu, Hauptmann, Strindberg
and others of whom much is being said
in some other parts Of the world. Ber-
nard Shaw was represented here last
season by an inadequate company who
attempted to interpret candida" ."
Whether 1t is better to see such things
half done rather than not done at all
is a question that is open for discus
sion.
The recent production of Ghosts"
while far from perfect, was about as
even a performance of this drama as
one could expect to see in the average
run of dramatic events anywhere in
the country. If one believes in
"Ghosts" as an affair teaching a sub
lime truth in the manner it should be
taught he will witness the Mestayer
performance with considerable salts
faction. At any rate it Is great play
from many standpoints and the ai-
nouncement that it is to be repeated on
next Wednesday afternoon by the same
company will cause rejoicing in many
quarters.
