less interesting to the public. If one play
succeeds there may be three that fail.
Richard Mansfield rarely spent much
money on the various r~evivals. Julius
Caesar and the other pieces he gave were
picked up in London and other places and
the famous Henry v" was pieced to-
gether from various London theater man
ayers.
In comic opera. where the expenses are
really much greater than in an ordinary
ramat company, the preponderance OF
failures will much more quickly put a star
out of business. There was one popular
comic opera comedian who for a while
seemed on the top wave OF success. He
had begun his career with a bowling sue
cess that carried him through two great
seasons. He never found a successor to
this first play, although after a while he
did occasionally pick up a piece that would
do well through one year. 1t did not hap
pen a few years ago that managers aban-
doned a full production so promptly as
they dc now.
The average comic opera performance In
these days is put on by five or six man
ayers who own each some interest In II
and II II seems certain thar they are not
going TO make a go Of the production they
let II go and are not much out on the spec
ulation. Formerly It was the actor or the
manager, however, who had put up the
money for the scenery and costumes and
met all the outlay, so they tried hard by
sticking to a piece throughout the season
to make some money out OF the stars
vogue. Comic opera stars that fail for two
or three seasons are a great deal OF a

and then nine more weeks to commit his
part to memory. He added that it took him
seven weeks of continuously playing the
role before he felt secure in the part.
When 1 told him 1 had a week in which to
do It he said he did not think 1 could get
even the first act ready in that time.
But stock training does wonders, and 1
succeeded. though it was hard work.
In addition to learning the lines, atten-
ton and times must also be given toward
grasping the significance and purpose of
the character and study the business
as well as dressing the role. Is It easy to
be a leading man? Just try it."
.
Americans travelling in Europe are gen.
orally impressed with the fact that every
body seems to know everything about arr
and music in those countries. And yet
that is not always the case. The famous
summer resort at Ostend gives a notable
example of this. Ostend, which is fire.
quented by the aristocracy and the rich.
and which in the summer time is what
Monte Carlo is in the winter, prides itself
on the brilliant concerts given there. The
famous gaming house is under the control
of a certain M. Marquet, who began his
career as a waiter. Next season Brussels
is to rave an exposition, and. of course. 1t
will be a big season for Ostend. So Mar
quet is already laying plans for this event.
Recently he called his musical director, a
man named Rindskopf, into his august
presence and said:
You, Rindskopf, hat ninth symphony
Of Beethoven which you conducted re-
Gently seemed to nah a great hit. Now,
I have a fine idea for our concerts next
year, when the Worlds fair crowd viii e
coming here. You induce this man Beeth-
oven to write a tenth symphony and give
us the right of premiere performance"
But" interjected the conductor, Bee
thoven-'
Think he will not do it2" says Marquet.
Nonsense. Tell him wen pay him any
thing within reason. 1 guess he has his
price like any other"
yes, but it is impossible" began the
conductor.
Impossible, nothing What's the matter7
Is he sick7 Then we shall send him to a
specialist. But he must promise to have
the work complete in time. That's impor-
tant."
Rindskopf can listen to no more and
says:
That's all very we'll and good, but the
poor man is dead"
"Ah." answered Marquet, too bad. ]
should like TO have heard his tenth SYM
phony."
The discussion Of charging the orchestra
for next year was then taken up and
Rindskopf assured his patron that his
plans were progressing nicely.
II have already engaged ten more first
violins," he said. "and will add eight more
second violins."
why second y~iolins," interposed the
manager. Don't let a few hundred francs
stand in the way. I want the best orches
ira possible, and what is the use OF second
violins. I wan them all first-class. Leav,
the seconds for some one else"
The Brussels correspondent who is re
sponsible for the above does not add wha
the conductor answered.

to offer good amusement for children from

eccentric German teacher, is featured with
four clever young girls and four boys
equally clever. Miss Angela Dolores, sup

A clever musical skit is to be presented
by Bod Adams, who has assisted in the
composition of several musical comedies,
and Bob Alden, who is responsible for a
number OF such catchy tunes as Not Be

tortionists is Carletta. To round out this
bill, the newest of motion pictures will be
projected by the kinodrome, and the Or

play some delightful selections before the
opening of each performance.

.HERE seems to be no question
III as to the public's fondness for
the drama with a mystic ele-
~ ment. This is fully proven in
haA4SNI the record OF "The Witching
- Hour" Augustus Thomas psy-
Geological play, in which John Mason ap-
peared for more than a year at the fash
ionable Hackett theater in New York, and
which the Messrs. Shubert will present at
the Burwood for four nights starting this
evening. Mr.. Mason played the character
Of Jack Brookfield, the hypnotic gambler,
nightly in New York all last season and
part OF the present season TO an attendance
that completely nonplussed the sceptics
who up to the time OF the Thomas play
failed to see any chance for psychological
drama, dealing with the problems of hyp-
notism and thought suggestion. The scien-
tific discussion OF telepathy in The Witch
ing Hour" Is not presented in the usual
prosy cu~t-and-dried manner one is accus-
toned 10. The Witching Hour is in four
acts ana the scenes depict spirited periods
In Louisville, KY. and Washington, ID. C..
Mr.. Mason during his local appearances
will be supported by the original Hackett
theater cast, including besides Mr.. Mason
an his best OF character studies, Jack Brook
field, Amelia Gardner as Mrs. Helen Whip
pie and Russ Whytal as Justice Prentice.
There will be a matinee Wednesday.
