WHEN PROPERTIES
GO SADLY WRONG

Lines that won't come are not half as
much dreaded by actors as the stage
properties" that refuse to work. Since
real doors and practical locks have be-
come universal there is the constant pos
sibility that the door will not come open,
that the lock will not work. Some joker
locked the real safe in Sherlock
Holmes one night, and the actors had
to remember that they had left the
papers, the Indispensable, always-lncrllnl-
mating papers, in another room.
Last fall in play built on an insur-
ance scandal the president of the COM

order to avoid two detectives who had

catch on the door of the private elevator
took sides with the detectives, and the

walked over to the window, ana, raising
the sash, said to tAa eminent attorney:

If the audience could believe its eyes

they must invent lines to cover business
on the opening night of THE Prince
Chap" Cyril Scott had to chatter away
for seven minutes to the child ne held on
his lap while he undressed it. Mr.. Scott
hasn't any children of his own and knew
nothing about undressing them. There
had been lust one dress rehearsal or the
niece. and it was so prolonged that when
they came to this scene it had been
nassed over with the remark that had
always ended the rehearsals of that act:

EE sHUBERT announced plan by
which he hopes to 90 away win WIN
- some of the disadva ntages OF ths
present ''star system" on the stage. anu
at the same time develop versatlilty IA
actors. He will try the plan at the Iorth-
coming Actors Fund fair, and II me eA-
pertinent proves successful, he VIII elao-
crate on il for next SESSION.
The idea is to change the cast OF
popular play running in New YORK sew
eral times a season, giving the puDlG d
chance to see how different stars pl
the part, and also giving the stars an o.
portunity of shifting their roles durlhs
the season. At the fund fair a one-act
play already selected, will be presented
every day of the week with dlf1ereht
star and company each day. .
Il have long been of the opinion, SAID
Mr.. Shubert yesterday, that our pres
ent star system puts too great hnlta5
tions upon our most talented actors ana
actresses. Obviously. we have no re
course to the old stock company, as thal
is antiuuated. / am, therefore, gong 70
try out in miniature a system OF letting
ore play run for an entire season at one
theatre, as at present, but of changing
the entire cast at regular intervals Ihus,
in one season, at the same theatre, i
the plan prove feasible, we shall see q
comedy, say, played one month by one

THE PENALTY OF SUCCESS

Frank Monroe, who plays the detec-
tive in alias Jimmy Valentine. re-
Gently enjoyed a business talk with
George c. Tyler, chief of the Liebler
& Co. forces, producer of the play Mr.
Tyler expressed appreciation of Mr..
Monroe's showing and offered to give
a practical proof of his attitude.

next year." said Tyler, 'at such and

over Monroe's present emolumeh..
The actor agreed.
Now" said Tyler, Il will make con-
tract with you for the year after next

Monroe agreed. Then he asked two
questions.
What part am to play next year?"
"The detective in Alias Jimmy Val

"And what part am 1 to play the
year after?" asked Monroe.
"The detective in Alias Jimmy VAL

GENESIS OF ROSTAND'S
SATIRICAL COMEDY

The Theatre Magazine for March con-
tains Edmond ROstands own account OF
the genesis of his sensational Darnyafu
play, "Chantecler
whilst enjoying a country walk in the
neighborhood of Cambo, that came upon
a farmyard scene-Ordinary enough, per
haps with its geese and pigeons, It's

sunshine. Suddenly cock croWed, ana
came strutting upon the scene. what
proud, staggering entrance he made
and domineering, ready for any adventure
at hand. from gallantry to combat ard
slaughter-a king amongst his subjects.
In an instant, in flash, l saw my
drama. 1t was not thought that arose
in nv mind but vision that Selezd upon

but a verita BILE stage production OF what

sensations it awoke in me- felt

creatures should be the dramatls per

should be a real presentment OF TINS
rustic scene. The vision obsessed me, and
a scenario RAPIDLY shaped itself in my
brain. absorbing to itself various ideas
belonging to other nebulous projects l
had in mind at the moment-Don Qulxote'

time at all, lie Chantecler' was blocked

First of all, l must consult Coquelin-
CoqueIin, the very incarna ton of my su-

noisy character as l had conceived hlm
carving his crest high like the plume OF
Cvrano 'Coquelin mon vieuX, said l,
how would you like to play a role with
out facial expression, without hands. arms
or gestures and tricked out in the plum
age of a bird? In fact, how would you
like TO play a straight rooster?' l shall
never forget the look poor Coquelin gave
me. 1t was as though had struck him a
sudden blow in the stomach. But after
the first shock he pulled himself together
and listened to my exposure of the idea
with a growing interest that presently
became enthusiasm. When he went back
TO Paris from that visit, he was Chante-

ELITE THEATRE.

Again Mr.. Florence has selected pro
gram for the Elite which, without doubt
will assist greatly in still increasing the
already large patronage this little pic
ture house has secured since Mr.. Florence
has given it his personal attention. A
romantic ira gedy of early Rome, "Fhe
Christian Martyrs" is the headliner. For
the lovers of travel pictures an excellent
eaxmple of perfectly photographed seen
cry in Italy, The Park of Caserta, Is
shown. and is not only excee dinghy inter
esting to all, but owing to its great edu-
cational value, is well worth the time OF
the busiest man. An extreme drama tic
novelty, Battle in the Clouds, is also
included in this program, introducing IL
a practical way, many modern inventions
which are still in the experimental stages.
with which are interviewer touching ano
thrilling love story episodes. Two up
roariousIy funny comedy productions
both from the popular Biograph studios,
''The Day After" and Choosing a Hus-
band, with some excellent muslcal num-
bers and two illustrated songs, complete
the program.
