NJ. B. Leavitt, who was the first
amusement manager to construct a
chain of playhouses stretching across
the United States and to fill them with
attractions mainly under his individual
direction, thus laying the foundation
for the present theatrical syndicate,
has written a book. 1t is called Fifty
Years in Theatrical Management"
Avery Hopwood has written the book
of a musical play for Miss Marie Cahill.
1t will be produced next August. and
it's music will be composed by Silvio
Helm.
The Chinese theaters, says Percival
Knight, are the oldest places. There
are no seats. The floor Slants down to-
ward the stage, as in our theaters, and
there are ratings at right angles with
the stage and the people stand between
them and look over the heads of those
al front of them Everybody smokes.
There is no scenery except few cur
tains at the back and sides of the stage,
the musicians, with their queer drums
and flutellke instruments, sit at the
sides of the stage, and there are no
exits; when an actor reaches a point
where we would go off the stage he
just walks to the back and sits down
or comes down front and talks to
friends in the audience.
Carrying with her contracts to the
amount of $136,000 the largest ever
signed by the United Booking Offices of
America Miss Gertrude Hoffman
sailed for Europe last Tuesday on the
Kronprinzessin Cecile concluding her
vaudeville season with her appearances
at the Bronx theater. Her contract
provides for time next season with
Percy G. Williams, Keith & Proctor
and William Hammerstein, opening on
September 5.
The trip abroad is to combine busi-
ness and pleasure, as Miss Hoffman
crosses the water in search of material
for an act which it is promised will be
more magnificent and elaborate than
her present Offering, which has been
generally accepted as the most pre-
tentious in vaudeville. Miss Hoffman
also plans to study some new Hindoo
and classical dances es well as pro-
curing appropriate costumes for the
rendition of the same.
1.-The Scarlet Pimpernel," the play

don is its fifth revival. II was first
produced in 1905

critic on the occasion of its fifth debut,

Joe Brooks, his degradation and his
selfish willingness to drag down MS
wife TO save himself from the results
of his evil deeds never has been por-
trayed in such striking manner as it is
by the Burbank players. Upon the
shoulders of A. Bryon Beasley falls
the burden of the acting, and he dis
cards his own personality for that of
the unspeakably mean and little
Brooks so completely that it is i'm
possible TO recognize in him the player
of heroic parts. Miss Marjorie Ram
beau copquers again by sheer force of
her simplicity--a marvellous jump from
the complexities of the erratic Juanita
in "The Rose of the Rancho"
Miss Rambeau gives force and dig
nifty to the patient Emma Brooks by
subduing, and thus intensifying her
scenes. David M. Hartford as the
clustering Capt. Williams, gives an
other of his remarkable character stu
dies. He bring out, as never gefore,
the fact that although Williams was
rough, repulsive man, he was not
all bad, and the fact that there was a
point where he could be touched is
strikingly developed.
David Landau has the most lovable
role in the play as Jimsy Smith, the
friend of everybody, the philosopher,
the uncut diamond.
Louise Royce as the fault-finding
mother, Ethel Won Waldron as the
"snippy' little sister and Henry Stock

impart the atmosphere of reality to

BELASCO-RobertE Blossoms most re-
cent success. THE Call of the North" p"
will be played this week by Lewis S.
Stone and the Belasco theater company.
"The Call of the North" is entirely new
to local audiences. 1t is a stage version
of 1.-The Conjurers House." Stewart
Edward Whites popular story of the
Hudson Bay country.
''The Call of the North" will give Mr..
Stone, in the part of Ned Trent, excel
lent opportunities for that virile style
of acting at which the Belasco leading
man is always seen at his best. Mrs.
Stone, or Margaret Langham, as she is
known to the stage, will be seen as a
halfbreed Indian girl, full of love and
just as fond of revenge for the men
ygho sent her father on the long journey
from which none return. Charles Rug
giles as a young Indian and Florence
Oakley as the daughter of the factor,
the part which will be in the hands OF
William Yerance, will assist very ma
terially in providing a performance of
exceptional worth.
"The Call of the North" has to do
with the efforts of Ned Trent of st.
father, who had come into the Hudson
Bay country to trade with the Indians,
independent of the Hudson Bay rep
resentatiVes-a proceeding that was
looked upon as little worse than trea-
son. Young Trent falls in love with
Virginia, the factors daughter, just as
he is arrested, as his father was some
years before. Trent's effort to escape
La Tongue Traverse with it's newt
able death, either by starvation or at
the hands of Indian allies of the trad
ing company, afford the dramatist his
reason for having the factors daughter
supply Trent with a rifle and enough
provisions to insure his safe return to
his own country. Trent's capture and
the person who gave him the rifle and
provisions, are treated with dramatic
force and power,
Following "The Call of the North. ="
Mr.. Stone and the Belasco company
will give the first stock company per
formance of Paul Armstrong and Rex
Beach's comedy of western ranch life
"Going Some"
BURBANK-That the Burbank has
outdone itself in the production of
paid in Full' is the unanimous Ver-
dict of the audiences which have
crowded the theater to the doors every
night and matinee the last week. and
the same piece will be given another
week beginning the matinee today.
paid in Full' in itself is one of the
greatest dramas ever written, but the
performance given by the Burbank
company is in every sense worthy OF
the play.
