NEW YORK, September 14.-The
most important of the new theatri-
cal productions here this week is
Jack Straw" a comedy by the newly
risen English dramatist, Somerset
Vaughan. 1t is one of the Vaughan
successes in England, and Charles
Frohman brought it over. The first
American performance was given at
the Empire Theater tonight by John
Drew and his company, of which Miss
Mary Boland is the leading woman
this season. She is very attractive
young actress. One thing about John
Drew which his friends remark is his
preservation of the same appearance
which he had twenty years or more
ago. He does not look a whit older
off the stage than on, and he is as
youthful looking, alert, cheerful in
manner and pleasing in every way as
he was two or three decades ago, when
the last generation of matinee girls
fhA
now, even although he has a daughter
as old as themselves on the stage to
maintain the name of this historical
has not had any photograph taken for
years. He is the satisfied with the
old ones, and as he has not altered
since he posed for them, even his mus
tache still having the familiar curve,
he does not perceive why he should
bother himself about new pictures.
Miss Blanche Bates is glad now
that she did not leave David Befasco,
for he has given her in "The Fight
ing Hope" a part which will enable
her to increase her reputation and for
which she is we'll fitted Belasco,
whose judgment about theatrical pro-
auctions is almost unerring, pronoun-
ces "The Fighting Hope" one of the
most interesting and in every way
satisfactory plays that he has ever
produced in his long career. It will
be produced in New York next week,
after being presented for a week in
Washington and this week in Pitts
burg.

For the first time in six years Pan
sy Perkins will not accompany her
father when he leaves for Washington
this year, and she will be greatly
missed from the younger social sci
in official circles, where her charming
personality and vivacity have made
her extremely popular. She is busy
with her trousseau, which is most ella
borate, and is preparing for her we'd
ding, which will take place in the
early winter at the termination of the
political campaign. Besides having
inherited much of the tact and diplo-
