the original production or else they

whist with local improvements. rake
Liebler & Co.'S 1.-THE Man from Home.
1t ran a year in Chicago and is now
in its second year in New York-a
theatrical Tale of Two Cities" as 1t
were! When do you think the middle
sized towns will see this clever comedy
of Booth Harrington and Harry Leon
Wilson? The solution is bound to be
in stock. If producing managers can
receive in royalties on a season what
would accrue to them as profits from
a travelling tour, they are most as
suredly going to lease their plays 10
the stock manager.
In the character of plays it would
seem as though romance were again
coming into it's own. The public is
rapidly tiring of the eternal problem
play with its sex sidelights. 1t is de-
manding wholesomeness and purity
from its dramatists. It is asking to be
entertained, not to be forced nolens
volens into a board of public safety
and morality. OF suen romantic char
acter is "Cameo Kirby the play which
Booth Harrington and Harry Leon VIII
son have written of those halcyon days
of 1880 when New Orleans was in its
most picturesque glory and when the
Mississippi river steamboat traVel
was at it's apogee. History as We'll
as tradition have thrown a peculiar
charm around this period and the play
is splendidly illumined by the mag
netfsm and virility of Dustin Farnum' 5
acting. Farnum, by the way, seems
an actor born, not made. Ease and
grace are second, or rather first, nature
to him. He is as clean cut as the
canoes whence he derives his
sobriuuet in the play There is a
buoyant cleanliness to his work that Is
inspiring.
Acting would seem to run in the
Farnum family. OF his BROTHER Will
liam Farnum, now supporting Viola
Allen in 1.-THE White Sister" and of
Dustin himself, there is told story
that when both were in the knicker-
booker age they saw a performance OF
"The Corsican Brothers" and some few
DAYS afterwards from the family wood
shed came the most awful din. Bated-
breathed and fearful-eyed dnvestiga-
tion discovered the youthful Farnums
belaboring each other with tin swords
over such parts of their persons as
were covered with missing and much
needed kitchen tinware. 1t is said that
right then and there was Made the res
olution which has since developed both
brothers into such distinctive orna-
ments to the American stage.

STOCK REVIVAL IS
HAILED AS BOON
ny Holm F. Harley

1 have an ideal respect for the stock
system of which John Drew, Otis
Skinner and Louis James are the pres
ent tangible results in evidence. They
have taken their degrees in acting and
are entitled and qualified to add M
A. after their individual surnames
And this selfsame M. A. might not be
improperly construed to mean Master
of Acting.
OF course faraway pastures are all
ways green, even when looking back
ward; but it seems to me that the
actors training of twenty-five years
ago was somewhat on a par with the
college curriculum of the same period.
Study was more essential and wider
range of subjects was covered. Mat
ters were neither as elective nor ec-
lectic as now. A man had to be wen
grounded. He had to read at sight
the Virgil, Homer and Euclid of his
art.
A little further up the street from
the famous DAILY theater, which then
housed Drew, Skinner, Jimmy Lewis,
Ada Rehan, Mrs. Gilbert, LeClercq,
May Irwin, Edith Kingdom and Vir-
ginia Dreher, with Willie Collier as
call boy, was a stock company which
sang comic opera as comic opera is
not now known. 1t blazoned no stars
on billboards, but on Col. John A. Nc
Caulrs payroll were Digby Bell, De-
Wolf Hopper, Mark Smith, Edwin Hoff,
Mathilde Cottrelly, Lily Post, Marie
Jansen and Adelaide Manola. They
had followed the famous Wallack stock
company with Kyrle Bellew, Frederick
De Beileville, Rose Coghlan, Annie
Robe and Madame Ponisi as members
principal.
! r. M. Field was doing at the Boston
Museum what DAILY and Wallack were
accomplishing in New York, and !
think it was from this Wallack and
Field association that Charles From
man assimilated in part the thoughts
and ideas which have since made his
name tower of artistic strength IN
theatrical America.
At present there is a general ten
dency throughout the country TO re-
vert to the stock system. For IN
stance, such medium -sized town as
Fort Wayne, Ind, maintained high
class stock company all last season
playing successes like "The Girl oi
the Golden West the Liebler & Co
productions of "Salomy. Jane, Mere
ly Mary Ann" ETC., etc.
Long runs are becoming more fire.
o,Ient, SO that by the time piece
has had its innings in New YORK ano
Chicago there is small chance or the
west or south seeing the original cas-
! within three or four years of the play
premiere. And it has got so lately
that no matter how good specia
company may be, Refrigerator SIDING
