'MIzPAH' PROVES
A DELIGHT AGAIN
BURBANK REVIVES 1T WITH
FINE SUCCESS
Cast Almost the Same as Refore-Bib.
llcaI Drama by Passionate Poetess
Great Favorite with Bur-
bank Audiences

"Mizpah," that Biblical drama from
the pen of a certain poetess of passion,
assisted by Luscombe Searelle, went on
for it's sixth week-not in succession,
however-at the Burbank yesterday,
and two large audiences proved that
not yet has it lost it's attractive
powers.
The play has been reviewed several
times in these columns, and extended
comment here and now is not demand
ed, as practically all of Los Angeles
is familiar with 1t. Whether, as Los
Angeles thinks, it is one of the great
plays of the age, or, as New York de-
clares, 1t is poor drivel, the fact re-
mains that the Burbank clientele likes
1t, and no matter what the ethical
opinion may be Manager Morosco is
both wise and right in giving his
patrons their desires.
In most respects the cast Is iden-
tical with the previous ones. Mr..
Desmond continues to do one or MS
best characterizations as Ahasueras,
and Mr.. Burton Is equally fine as
Mordecai, while Harry Mestayer takes
the highest honors as Mehumen,
though scarcely less luster Is claimed
by Henry Stockbridge. Arthur Rut-
ledge appears as Maman In place OF
Stanley st. Johns, and the part does
not suffer by the change. Miss Hal
is very appealing and lovable as
Esther, and the balance Of the cast
fills all requirements. The settings are
superb.

inconsistency could go further. Flor
ence Bindley used to play 1t IN the

though it is denominated musical
comedy drama, and the events depicted
would be impossible of reality any
where save on a stage. They include
the accusation of dishonesty against
the father of the pretty soubrette, the
desire on the part both of roue ana
his son to wed the soubrette aforesaid,
her appearance at the roue's house,
her singing in the street to foil the
villain the while she is disguised as

calls for some good character work,
which in the main is we'll handled, out
