One of the interesting events of
the season was the wedding of Miss
Dagmar Sorenson and Mr.. Richard
Cooke, which took place at the resi-
dcnCe of Mrs. Sorenson, the brides
mother, on Nuuanu avenue, Tuesday
evening at S o'clock. Promptly at
that hour the sweet strains of the
'Lohengrin" Wedding March were
hcard, played by Miss Violet Damon
on the violin and accompanied by
Mrs Frank Judd, and the lovely
bride advanced supported by the
arm Of her brother, Mr. Olaf Soren-
son, through pathway of white
satin ribbon held by the bridesmaids,
the maid-of-honOr, VMiss Alice Cooke,
walking directly behind the bridal
party. They were met by the Rev,
DR.. Scudder, who performed the cere-
mony, the groom and his best man
taking their places in the order of
precedence. The dining-room, where
the marriage took place, had been
converted into veritablG bower of

bride and groom. After the cere-

Bridal Robe

SA4AAHl +kObC
A description of bridal frocks Is
always interesting, and the one worn
ut the Roosevolt-Geer wedding is
quite worth speaking Of.
Miss Dorothy Quincy Roosevelt, a
second cousin of the President, who
was married a few days ago to Lang
don Geer, had as part of her bridal
gown satin brOCade Court train.
The bridal robe itself, Empire Prln-
cess in outline, was very simple, as
best suits a petite bride; the satin
was very soft and the train not very
long; the skirt part was absolutely
Ilain.
The top of the gown had its yoke of
Guchesse and old rose point, with the
Dutch or round neck having a slight
dip in the center front, and just
above the lace was seen one of her
wedding gifts, IA diamond necklace
IL Empire design, single string Of
diamonds with the Empire ornament
effect in the front.
The yoke was of ilOunCes Of rose
and duchesse point that formed a

III ~ Mrs. George BeCkley gave
an elaborate luau at Their
" N Diamond Head bungalow In
honor of Mir. and Mrs. Jack
Spreckels of San Francisco. The feast
was spread on tables which were set
IN the immense lanai with the view
of the Pacific before one. The lanai
enclosed on two sides with tropical
yerdure is an ideal place for luau
and the long table beautifully and
lavishly decorated with asters and
maidenhair ferns, made an artistic
background for the varied and lus-
"lous dishes of the feast so dear to
the Hawaiians and liked by many
foreigners.

sets about an elaborate scheme to save

the aid of Simeon Keff, a royal patriot
from Sylvania, Prince Gregoire sue
cessfully carries out a plot which cul-
inmates in the separation of the pair.
The outcome of this parental con-
spiracy leads directly to the awakening
of the soul of Therese to the realization
of her love for her daughter and her
duty, and above all to full knowledge.

of her husband.
On Tuesday and Saturday nights and

This is a play that has been more dis
cussed than any other work from the
pen of an American dramatist.

Miss Nethersole will appear in another

.ysale. being more inclined to produce
slowly but surely in order that their
works when finished SHOULD reflect no
discredit upon their standing as dram
atists.
At most we have had from men like
Mr. Pinero Mr.. Barrie and Mr. Jones a
single play each season. In the mean
time a host of younger men have been
| tried abroad, but most of them have been
| found wanting in the qualities necessary
| for dramatic success. The foreign play
market for several years has not been
able to respond to the strong demands OF
| American producers.
| Here, then, was the long-awaited chance
for the American dramatist. In our own
country, as abroad. there has been for
years a small band of recognized play
wrights, men like Belasco and his col
laborators, Fitch, Thomas and Klein, who
could be depended on from time to time
to produce works that would have value.
In the meantime, however the younger
/ and lesser known men, bravely struggling
and crying for an opportunity, found their
plays shut out from the footlights.
| The theatrical manager, regarding the
matter in it's strictly business aspect,
| found little reason to experiment with
| novices. so long as he was able to pro.
cure from abroad plays that had already
been tried and which were reasonably
sure of a respectful hearing in this coun-
| try. For it Is argued that the selection
of plays even in the case of experienced
producers, involves much the same con-
ditions as the buying of a, pig in poke.
| A play may look very promising in
manuscript. but, except in rare cases, the
managers believe that only actual presen-
tation can determine its value from the
publics point of view Such being the
| case, there was far less risk in taking a
play that had already been tried in Lon
don, Paris or Berlin.
| With a shortage abroad, however, there
was nothing left for the manager to do
but to make the most of the material at
hand. How well the American dramatist
was able to avail himself of his oppor-
tunity the records of the last producing
season amply demonstrated. With hardly
an exception, the prosperity of New
| York's producing playhouse was founded
! on American made dramas.

HARVEST TIME FOR
NATIVE DRAMATISTS

NVIDENCES are NOT wanting, even at
HI this early date, to prove that the
- theatrical season will be marked
by an unusual preponderance of plays,
which, If not wholly American In theme,
have been prepared by American authors
to meet the demands and requirements of
American audiences.
There will be few notable exceptions,
to be sure, in plays that have been writ
ten by foreign authors and that have
either been tested abroad already or come
from men so well established In their pro-
fession that even their new and untried
work is always eagerly sought by the
American producing managers. But the
present If ever, is the American dramat-
lists opportunity; he is In a position to-
day to garner in the harvest of fame and
dollars for which he has struggled SO
many years, and often with little en-
couragement and less reward.
There is at present lively demand for
American plays In creating this con-
dition two important factors have con-
spired- OF primary Importance of course,
is the fact that for number of years
the foreign fields have been compare
lively sterile.
Half dozen men at the most have
contributed the successful plays of the
last two or three seasons abroad, and
these men, recognized masters of their
craft are generally careful workers. and
men with something at least approximate
ing an artistic conscience. AS a result
they have not turned out plays by whole

COMING ATTRACTIONS

MASON-OIga Nethersole, who comes
to the Mason this week, will present
for her opening performance tomorrow
night a play that has never been seen
here. In this drama, "The Awaken
ing" public interest probably will be
centered more than in any of the other
three plays on account of the literary
eminence of the dramatist and be-
cause of it's novelty.
This will be Miss Nethersole's first
appearance in Los Angeles since she
made an artistic conquest of Paris last
June, when, at the Sarah Bernhardt
theater, she presented in English her
we'll known repertoire of plays and was
accorded an ovation such as few
women of the stage ever have received.
1.-THE Awakening will be repeated Fri
day night and at the Saturday matinee.
"The Awakening" is M. Paul Her
vfeu's latest contribution to the litera-
ture OF the stage. Briefly told, the
story of ."The Awakening is as fol-
lows: Gregoire, prince of a Balkan
state, is sojourning with his son Jean
in Paris. They are in temporary exile.
The father and son are intimately ac-
auainted with Raoul de Magee and
Therese, his wife. The former holds
high office in the French ministry. His
interests are centered in his political
work. while his wife remains at home
neglected An almost imperceptible
estran cement has grown up between
them, and their beautiful daughter
Rose is practically the only tie that
holds them together. Prince Jean has
fullen in love with Therese. She, while
not reciprocating his implied alteration
weakly permits 1t, and when Prince
Greeoire calls upon his son to make an
effort to regain the throne of Sylvania
matters are brought to a. crisis by the
young prince declaring his love for
Therese, and offering to renounce his
father and the throne at a word from
her Prince Gregoire, who has already
14i ,,i,.ad fl,e trend of his sons intention.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-09-29

and think, for it is a stage portrayal of
the divorce evil. Stated broadly and
badly, the plot of 1.-THE Labyrinth" is
this: A man and a woman to whom have
been born a child are divorced because
Of discovered infidelity of the former.
Because she is lonely and because she
feels her son should have fathers care,
the woman marries second time. Later
she is brought into unavoidable contact
with her first husband, and following
her native instinct, which, she cannot
overpower, she promises, after a strong
scene in which there are intermingled
pleadings, promises, denials and weeping,
to return to the arms of the father of
her child. AS Marianne, Miss Nethersole
is said to have found a role admirably
fitted to her powers of temperamental
acting.
On account of the varied lengths of
Miss Nethersole's performances, and to
accommodate the public, the following
hours for raising the curtain will be
strictly observed: For night perform
ances of ''srhe Awakening at S;20 o'clock,
and for the Saturday matinee at 2:20
o o'clock; for the evening performances of
"Sapho," at $40 o'clock, and for the
Wednesday matinee at 2:10 o'clock; for
"The Labyrinth" at $40 o'clock, and
for Carmen" at $40 o'clock.
BELASCO-"The Only Way" Freeman
Wills successful dramatization of the
Dickens story, "A Tale of Two Cities" "
will be played this week by the Belasco
company The piece will serve to give
Lewis Stone the best opportunity he has
had since he came to Los Angeles His
portrayal of Sydney Carton is said to be
really splendid bit of histrionism. The
mob scenes, always a feature of any per-
formance of "The Only Way" will come
in for more than ordinary prominence in
the Beasco presentation. Harry Spear,
who directed the play when it was orig
inally given in this country by Henry
Miller, will have charge of this part of
the performance Every member of the
Belasco company will be included in the
cast, and more than 100 of specially en-
gagged players will be used in the mob
scenes.
Following "The Only Way" the Be
litt's play-romance, Forest Lovers"
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES with matinee
this afternoon the Burbank theater COM
pany will offer a revival of William Gil
lettes farce, "All the Comforts of
Home" last seen in Los Angeles seven
years ago. John w. Burton, absent for
the past four weeks on his vacation, will
essay the role of Theodore Bender. The
story of the piece is we'll known and a
brief sketch of the plot will suffice: A
man named Pettijohn has a pretty wife
of whom he is insanely jealous, and a
daughter named Emily. Victor Smith, a
harmless young man, is in love with
Emily but Papa Pettijohn thinks he is
flirting with his young wife and takes her
