This Contributes to Success of
"TyphOOn," Says Whiteside.
Noted Actor Tells of Features
of Play Tonight.

''The day for the good play" said
Walker whiteside gravely, the inter
esting' play, the splendid play, the
perfect play has passed. To be sue
cessful play must be startling; that's
it's requisite. That's why Typhoon'
has had such a stupendous sale OF
seats-it's out of the ordinary, it tells
of something that's never been known
before. You know the plot? 1t hits the
heart of the Japanese Hfe-the fact that
everything, wife, love, home must be
sacrificed for country. True? Why, Of
course, it's true. You know the story
OF Nogi"
How do the japanese feel about this
play?" queried the reporter with in
terest.
They like it," was Mr.. Whitesides
emphatic response, 1--WE had at least
$50 letters from prominent japanese
they admit it's a true portrayal of
their life as it really is. Dozens of them
have sent me noboros-that's a peculiar
kind of Japanese charm
Il thought you had had black hand
letters objected the reporter, in dis
appointment, threatening an awful
fate if you didn't stop the play"
Purely a press story" explained Mr..
WhiteSide. with a smile.
1t is hard to picture this most fin
ished actor-off the stage-as anything
but a polished American gentleman
His manners are delightful. but abso-
lutely unaffected. Moreover, although
he is a New Yorker and lives on the
Hudson, he speaks with western ac-
cent, and actually rolls his rs.
Il have at present" said he, what
one might call a dual personality
Walker Whiteside, and Tokeramo, the
Jap. AS soon as l step on the stage
L leave America behind me; We oil do.
In fact. it isn't America. There are
no stage settings: everything is real
The magazines are japanese; if I'm
handed a letter. it's a Japanese letter.
If IllOna gives me a book, it's a Ger

not scenery-its a portable house.
this perfect detail is invaluable; its
subtle effect is felt by every actor on

Believed That Nfuth Is in Denver.

Sheriff J. D. Norton believes that the
Rev. H X Muth, who has been report
ed missing from his home in Highland
Park. may be on a visit to Denver,
neighbor having told the sheriff of
conversation recently in which Mr..
Muth suggested that he might go to
Denver.
The absence of the minister. who is
growing old and is rather feeble, was
reported by Mrs. Eberle,- who was
afraid he might be dead in the house.
A thorough examination of the prem
ises, however, showed everything left
in good shape. His custom to tell Mrs.
Eberle he was going, and ask her to
look out for his place, which he neg
lected this time, led to uneasiness as
to his welfare
