Marie Doro's Return.

Marie Doro has returned from London
and soon will begin rehearsals of Miss
Electricity" the new play by William
Gillette. in which she will star this sea-
son. Miss Doro went TO London TO ap-
pear in Charles Frohman's production of
THE Climax in the British metropolis
but the failure OF the London theater-
goes to take kindly to The Climax
grieved the little Miss Doro so deeply
that she announced her early retirement
from the stage. Beyond a doubt Miss
Doro will forget her determination when
she once more appears before the Ameri-
can public. who have grown to love her,
and will continue for many years yet "a
delight those who can appreciate the
charm and winsomeness Of the little
player. Pleasant memories OF Miss Doro's
Clarice still crowd the mind. and graft
tude is felt to Mr.. Frohman for his de-
cision to allow Miss Doro TO appear with
William Gillette in a few revival per.
formances Of "Clarice."

of their left legs. Neither Mrs.
Bate nor Mrs. Drewry were
hurt and the latter s four-year-

in her mothers lap, escaped
injury.
Mr.. Bate was taken to the
