sTHE PRINCESS OFs PATCHES"
 When Mark Swan the well-known playwright, was looking for a most suitable place for the scenes of The Princess of Patches, one or the pest pieces that ever came from his proi- ific pen, he chose the picturesque south with it's complex race of notions, snow dng fin all it's beauty and local coiot, typical southern cotton plantation, showing the negroes working in the cotton fields, carrying the cotton to the storehouse to be weighed and the old time well and windlass. In the third act, the interior of house-Doat such was in vogue thirty to forty shown To get an exact copy of this old house-b boat, the scenic artist went ! South and made an exact reproduce ton of one which is now lying on the banks of the Mississippi river, near Natchez. 1.-The Princess of Patches" with Dainty Estelle Allen in the title role commenced a three days engage ment at Jackson's this afternoon MIR.

One of Master and Pupil" in which he and Miss Lipmant acted tor a few special performances in Boston, and then laid aside. regarding it as fiat and irredeemable failure. Another is '"The White Hen,' which the Shuberts pro- duced for MT. sdann in the Spring of 1907 in the New York Casino. Mir. Mann. soon after that production was made, learned that the actual rights to the play were vested in George Ed wardes, the London manager and he forthwith refused to play longer in it, although the play, for the United states, would become the property Of Charles Frohman, who was far from allied with the Shuberts being re- garded as their chief business rival.
