The contest numbers are extremely

through though the singers are under
the disadvantage of having only few
old copies, which happened to be in
the choir's library, Two hundred new
copies are expected daily from the east,
but Prof. Stephens hopes that in an
other week it will be lnemorized, and
the copies will be but little needed.
Last night Mr.. Stephens began at

singers, that he may know absolutely

William Faversham and his wife,

strained to think, just u little before its
time; the London public had not then
been trained to accept what has since
been described as the problem play.
remember Clement Scott attacked the
Spanish author in his most vehement

have advanced considerably since those
days, and it Is just possible that there

doubts upon the point. for Echegaray

and it is from the melodramatic stand-
point that he is disposed to regard life.

better suited to Spain than to England

me that he had not seen the manuscript

piece from Hertz, the Paris manager.
He added that he hadn't the faintest

r f1NDON, June $50 far as the
production of new plays is con
cerned. the past week has been
complete blank. There are, new
ertheless, one or two interesting events
to chronicle. Among them is the re-
vival at the Haymarket OF "Peter's
Mother Il charming little comedy by
Mrs. Henry de la Pasture, the novel
list. which although it has achieved con-
siderable success here. has never been
seen in America. Why. it Is Il little
difficult to say. inasmuch as the piece
seems to possess just the qualities like
ly to make it popular on your side. If,
however, 1t has not found favor in the
eyes of managers like Charles Frohnan,
the Shubcrts and Klaw & Erlanger
doubtless there are good reasons for the
fact. Here, its prosperity must in some
measure be attributed to Marion Ter
rvs exquisitely tender and womanly
performance In the title part. Some
little time ago when she was in the
United States there was a talk Of her
appearing in the role. but somehow or
other the project fell through.
Then again we have had the cclebra-
ton OF the second anniversary of 1.-THE
Merry Widow" The piece believe I
am correct in saying is the biggest
money-inaker Of modern times. Its
run, of course. has been exceeded in
several Instances, but there are few
plays of which it can be said. as George
i;dwardes has boasted of THE Merry
Widow" that on no single occasion has
ii ever been played to a loss. What
Edwardes has made out of it Is a secret
known only to himself, but the total
must by this time run We'll into six
figures. And the end is not yet. Its
second birthday at Days was the sub
ject of unbridIed rejoicing: the house
