Mark Twain's characters--sOme of
the most appealing Of them-are TO
be dressed in French earb and given
to the public on the stage of Sarah
Bernhardts theater in Paris. Five
acts and nine tableaus have been con-
structed by Vladimir Bienstock and
Michel Care out of Mark Twain's ro-
nance, ''The Prince and the Pauuper."
They will be presented at the Thea
ter Sarah Bernhard in about six
weeks. M. Bienstock has already been
successful as an adapter, and he has
chosen The Prince and the Pauper"
out OF Mark Twain's books because its
sympathetic appeal would be as great
TO a Frenchman as to an American.
M. Bienstock has previously adapted
plays Of Pinero and Tolstoi.

A man who knew Mark Twain in
those days said:
"All that part of his early writings
are lost to posterity. I believe. don't
suppose there is a copy of the paper
extant anywhere. The fire that de-
stroyed Virginia City years ago con-
sumed the files of the Territory En-
terprise, and the only other complete
compiled at a cost of forty thousand
dollars by sending canvassers all over
Nevada and California in search of
back numbers OF the paper, paying
ed to make their file complete. The
only way to prove title to scores OF
mining claims depended upon the re-
cords published in those copies of the
Territory Enterprise. Eventually Jim
Flood presented the complete file to
the San Francisco public library. and
1t, too, was destroyed by the great fire
Of four years ago."
