1.-THE Lost Trail" a melodrama of lie

the original scenery, costumes and

The sensational element in the piece

ventional g1n-play finds no place in its
telling.

Professor r. w. Wood, of the chair
of Experimental Physics of the Johns
Hopkins University, is going to New
York from Baltimore to investigate the
practicability of applying to the seem
cry Of 1.-THE Blue Moon" a scientific
principle in the illumination of paint
ings. which, If successful, may revolu-
tionize stage scene painting and stage
scenic effects. He calls this 1.-THE Opt
cal Intensifcation of Paintings and
has demonstrated it to his own salts
faction on large numbers of paintings.
Sam S. & Lee Shubert, inc, the theat
rical producing managers, became in
terested in the possibilities of this dis
covery and invited DR.. Wood to ex-
pertinent on the scenery of THE Blue
Moon" with the understanding that if
practicable, the principle will be APP
piled to all the scenery of Shubert at
fractions, which lend themselves to
such treatment. This scenery includes
that of the musical n dramatic pro-
auctions which offer contrast in color
values, and particularly high lights n
deep shadows. Optical intensifcation
Is accomplished by the use of lanterns
in the same manner in which spot
lights are now used. The scenery to
be treated is reproduced in exact colors
on the lantern slides, and this is
thrown on the exact scenery. with the
result that the lights are heightened
and the shadows are kept back, thus
giving a local and properly graded
illumination. The difference between
the extremes OF white and black ap-
piled on canvas in pigments is only
about one in sixty, while in real ma
ture the difference is n to 700. The
process of optical intensifcation re-
stores this loss and brings the color
values exactly to nature.
1t is said that Thomas e. Shea has
made it his wise policy to avoid getting
his name into print in connection with
anything but what is relevant to his
theatrical career. Mr.. Shea stands

SHEA'S NEW ROLE Is
THAT OF A GLADIATOR.

OF much interest among theatrical
events is the appearance of Thomas %.

direction of Messrs. Cohan and Harris.
Theatre patrons need no Introduction
to Mr.. Shea, for all those who are in
terested in serious drama cannot help
but call to mind the ~tragedian's excel
lent display of talent on his many
visits in the past. Mr.. Shea's intelli-
gent work on previous engagements
here has acquired for him a large fol-
lowing of lovers of tragedy apart from
regular theatre-goers.
The program for next week will in
clude special performances of "The
Bells and "Dr. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde
and a new play by Eugene Thomas, en-
titled "A Soldier of the Cross."M Shea
has in "A Soldier of the Cross a drama
chronicling the trials of the first Chris
tiansi in ancient Pompeii. .
The author. it is said. has prepared
a vehicle in which Mr.. Shea. as Ajax,
the gladiator, has been seen to excel
lent advantage. Reports from other
cities state that the historical material
of the period has been employed with
strong dramaturgic effect, the Incidents
leading up to the destruction of the
city of Vesuvius. The story follows the
movements of Ajax" who is in search
of his daughter, and undergoes many
thrilling adventures with the Praetor
and his soldiers. By his great gladia-
torial powers, however, he is enabled
to assert his rights and claim his own.
He becomes a champion of the Chris
tan cause. and with them is con-
demned to the lions. A well chosen
