News of the Theatrical World

For the principal theme" says Vic
tor Herbert, Il use a left-motif, which
recurs as the story develops and fig
ures prominently in the finale. No
matter how tenuous the theme, every
light opera must have a backbone,
otherwise it is an interminate thing,
which never arrives at a consistent or
convincing climax. AS the plot is to
the libretto. so the left motif is to the
score. binding the whole composition
into a musical whole. Having once
settled the form of the score, the com
poser must study the sequence of the
numbers, their sentiment and subse-
quent development.
THE composition of light opera is
no more beneath the dignity Of schol'
arly musician than comedy is beneath
that of dramataist who can write
tragedy"

Orange. He did not attach much
value to the necklace and when he
came home he gave the pearls to his
wife, who carelessly put them in the
pocket of her kitchen apron, WI h the
remark that she could buy much mic
er pearls at the five-and-ten-cent store.
She forgot all about the pearls and
only remembered them when the de-
tective asked her about the baubles.
1t seems to be exceedinly hard for
women of the stage to give up the
glamour of the lime-light and to, re-
tire into the obscurity Of private life.
When an actress or singer has outliv-
ed her usefulness as a stage attraction
or has abandoned her stage career
in exchange for the wealth and social
position offered to her by some infat-
uated millionaire, she rarely is salts

Mrs. William E. Corey, the famous
singer known as Mabelle Gilman, who

the ranks of the former stage celebri-

FLY NUISANCE AND
ABOLITION OF PEST
Subject Discussed Today Be.
fore American Civic
Association.
(Nationa. News Associate nd

WASHINGTON, Dec 16.-The lily
nuisance and its abolition formed the
topic of Edward Hatch, Jr.. of New
York, in his remarks before the ses-
sion of the American Civic associa-
ton convention.
Mr.. Hatch, who is chairman of the
fly-fighting committee of the associa-
ton. presented the report of the COM
mittee, and he declared that the past
year, since the last annual meeting
in Washington, has been pre-eminently
successful.
When the chairman Of this commit
tee. a few years ago, before the COM
mittee itself had been formed, began
to acquaint the general public with
the danger Of the fly pest" said Mr..
Hatch, his efforts excited more hui
morous coment than serious atten-
ton. All that is changed now, and a
good part of the change has been
wrought within the past twelve
months.
Advice Being Asked.
''Since the last annual conference
on the fly pest. letters have poured in
upon the committee from all quarters
of the country, asking for advice on
the best methods of DISCRIMINATING
the house-fly. The pieces Of 'litera-
ture,' which served as ammunition in
innumerable flyswatting campaigns.

with a view of summing up the

to the Health commissioners of the diff

pears Kansas is in the van of the fly

of Health distributed the text of the
anti-fly ordinance and twelve cities
and fourteen towns adopted it. Dakota
reported a marked decrease in the
fly population. Much ingenuity has
been shown by some of the state
boards in designing anti-fly posters"
In summing up, Mr.. Hatch said:
The committee is we'll pleased with
the results secured, but it realizes the
fact that the war against the fly is
to be long one-not to be victorious

Arrangements to build a theater to
be devoted exclusively to negro plays
and negro patronage have been made
by firm called the Johnson Amuse-
ment company, composed of several
of the more important of the city's
negro residents. Thomas Johnson, an
employee of klaw and Erlanger is pres
ident of the corporation named after
him. 1t is planned to build the thea
ter at 138th street, between Fifth and
Lennox avenue. The cost will be
about $165,0OO Part of the building
which will be on a plot of about 100
feet frontage, will be devoted to lodge
and club rooms for negro organiza-
tions.
The restoration of free transfers at
ISL points in Manhattan and the
Bronx was ordered formally the other
day by the public service commission.
This order of the commission is based
upon statistics which conclusively
show that the abolition of the trans
fers has materially reduced the earn
ings of the streetcar lines involved. 1t
appears from the figures that approx
imately 100000 persons who would
have paid five-cent fares had they
been allowed to transfer, preferred
walking to paying double fare. 1t is
expected that the street care compan-
les will refuse to obey the order of
the public service commission and
will allow the matter to be taken into
court.
William w. Pike, assistant cashier
in one of the banks of this city, I'M
doubtedly has his share of troubles.
About nine years ago he married the
daughter of wealthy society woman
in Manhattan. His marriage was in
many respects a failure, but serious
domestic quarrels were avoided with
great diplomatic skill. His wife's
mother was indignant that her daugh-
ter was compelled to live in Bayside,
far from the club life and the social
whirl of gay Manhattan and Mrs. Pike
was easily persuaded that her lot was
indeed deplorable. AS a rule she spent
great deal of her time with her
mother, leaving her husband to shift
for himself About a week ago she
went on another of her periodic Wis

when Pike returned to his desolate
home he found that his entire house.
hold furniture had been removed by
his wife to be taken to some place
in Manhattan. He tried to prevent
the mover to take the things away
but as the man had an order from Mrs
Pike the court refused to interfere.

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-The steamer
General Slocum, 1923 of whose pas
sengers lost their lives when the old
excursion steamer took fire in the
East river on June Is, 1904, has at
last found a permanent resting place
on the bottom of the sea. After the
fire the hull of the steamer was pur-
chased by a man named Peter Hagan.
The steamer was reconstructed into
a barge and given the name Maryland.
1t was used after that in carrying big
loads of coal, coke and other merchan-
disc between different points on the
New York and New Jersey shores.
The old boat seemed pursued by i'll
luck and many times it came near 60
ing to the bottom. On it's last trip it
was to carry cargo coke from
Camden to Newark. N. J. 1t was in
tow of tug. but sprang leak dur
ing storm and sank in twenty four
feet of water.
Some time ago DR.. Gaetano Samar-
ELI. an Italian physician of this city
applied to the courts for the annul-
ment Of his marriage on the ground
that his wife refused to hug and kiss
him even on their honeymoon and per-
sisted in treating him with utter frig-
idity. He had been in hopes that
the threat involved in this petition to
the courts would soften the heart of
his wife, but it did not She remained
as cold as ever and would have moth
ing to do with him. Then the doctor
planned to leave New York. believing
that under the existing conditions a
separation would be the best thing.
But. although his wife apparently had
no use for him, she seriously object
ed to his leaving her and she obtained
from the supreme court an order for
the arrest Of her husband to prevent
him from leaving the state. The doc
tor recently withdrew his petition for

of the theatrical business forced the
clever actress and her admirable play
on the divorce question out Of Chicago

theaters have until now prevented her
from returning. She has, meanwhile,

theatrical manager, Il was surprised
to see what a large percentage of
Southern women have gone on the

find Southern girl on the stage.

Southern girls are more inclined to
