for divorce, naming Evelyn Thaw as
one of the correspondents.
Some nine years previously Adele
Rice. q Baltimore beauty of note, had
startled Manhattan and southern thea
trfcal circles by marrying the theatre
cal manager, George w. Lederer, few
hours after his release from former
marital letters. For many years the
Lederers safely sailed the domestic
seas, steering clear of matrimonial
breakers in the form of chorus girls.
While Mrs. Lederer managed matri-
mony, Mr.. Lederer managed many a
musical show. Chorus girls would
come and chorus girls would go as far
as George Lederer was concerned,
until he found himself tending this
wild Rose" bush and was bewitched
by The spell of it's uncanny beauty.

bN of Edna Goodrich and Nat
u Goodwin, while still the
- echoes of Ada Louise
a Lonsdales breach of
promise suit against
Blaine Elkins were reverberating
through the theatrical world, recalls in
q rather startling way the production
OF The Wild Rose" at the Knicker-
booker theater in 1902. For it adds
one more TO the strange blossoms in
that garden of romances, tragedies
and scandals which has grown up
around the men and women of The
Wild Rose production
1t seems as if some fatality must
have hung over that company of &C.
tors and actresses, and that it has pur-
sued them inexorably ever since those
days when they were first assembled
together. True, a few of the romances
nave the pure tint and the sweet SAVIOR
of the wild rose" from which they
Bprang, but they are rare bright spots
IN wild, rank garden, in which there
are few roses that have not a canker-
worm in their heart
A wonderful human rose bush was
that production, and blossom after
blossom has since borne fruit in dra-
mas OF real life. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
the theater-going world saw her at
her prettiest there; May Mackenzie,
Ada Louise Lonsdale. Maize Toilette,
Edna Goodrich, Hattie Forsytle, Mar
guerite Clark and Irene Bentley-can

gardener of that parterre, the manager
of this aggregation of charming wom-
en-George w. Lederer-even he fell
under the spell which marked THE
Wild Rose as the bush from which
grew matrimony, divorce and, some
times, the trail of sin which in more
than one instance led to criminal
courts

learning that the manager of the sue
cessful musical comedy had fallen a
victim to the strange influence exer-
cised by The Wild Rose" and through
his connection with it had earned only
divorce decree, says the New York
World.
Praised by Stanford White.
The brunette beauty of Edna Good
rich was one of the richest blossoms of
The Wild Rose" and while in that
company she attracted the attention
of the famous architect, Stanford
White. He was good judge of roses
and he spread the fame Of the beauty.
From the ranks Of show girls Edna
Goodrich was soon plucked by Nat
Goodwin, who wore her, as it were, in
his buttonhole as leading lady. Those
who went to the theater to scott re-
mained-if not to pray-at least to
gasp at the beauty of this leading lady
who had tripped the light fantastic in
The Wild Rose"
Not content with becoming a lead
ing lady, Edna Goodrich again stepped
into the international spotlight by
playing the leading part in a triangu-
lar love affair. While buying a trous-
seau in Paris at the close of the last
theatrical season, presumably to be-
come the bride of millionaire mine
owner named Mcmillan, the ex-chorus
girl led Nat Goodwin a love chase
from Paris to San Francisco. The
world looked, laughed and gasped
again when with perfect equanimity
the tickle footlight lady broke her en-
gagement to the man of the mines at
the same time that the noted comedi-
an was divorced from Americas most
beautiful actress, Maxine Elliott. Nat
Goodwin and Miss Goodrich were mar
ried and, presumably, the former show
girl is blessing The Wild Rose" bush
from which she bloomed into fame and
fortune.

education and ethics is due to the re-
