An Extravagant Farce.

Miss George made her start with The
New York Idea" which Langdon
Mitchell wrote for Mrs. Fiske "A dec
AIDE or more ago. 1t was scarcely
accounted a masterpiece even at that
time. II is a witty farce, done in the
terms OF comedy. It's e~xtravagances
make II impossible to regard the play as
a picture Of life. The Selling OF the
piece is fortunately so polite that one
overlooks the fact hat the actions OF
most of its characters might have be
invented by Labiche or the late Charles
Hoyt. Its mechanics are those of comedy.
although they are concerned with the
arrangement of material which lies al
together in the world Of farce. The wit
Of the author is relied upon for much
OF the diversion which the piece sup
plies.

Mr.. MitchelIs play Is by far the most
brilliant bit Of writing that the Amer

aces IL for the first time now and listens
to the constant sparkle Of it's speech

Such writing for the stage is In these
days 20 rare that a country which
regarded it's theatre as something more
than a show house would have cher
ished Mr.. Mitchelps play as one of its
contemporaneous masterpieces. 1t would
be interesting in the native drama to
find its peer.
h author has shown that n literary
midland there are few Of them that

apply TO the life of the day the method
which the second Carolinian dramatists
used for their time. The plays of Con-
grove and Wycherley bore no real rela-
ton to life. These were superbly n
brilliantly. artificial representations of an
existence that never was on land or
sea. Fol that reason their supposed
immortality has been excused by no less
conservative a critic than Thomas Ma
caulay.
There In no lack of decorum In Mr..
Mitchells play to condone. But Its ex-
t~ravagance and its remoteness from any
real life may need an apology. II Is

Then when the boy came with the
film. Il is alleged. Levi would scold him
so severely for not getting there earlier
that the youth would be only to glad

what became OF the film. AS soon as
the messenger disappeared, II is said.
Levi would rush with the film 10 a
Photographic printing establishment,
VIII re he would have what is known to
the trade as a "dupe" negative made
from the positive film. From the "dupe"
negative Levi could then have as many
counterfeit positives made as he desired.
The investigation OF the alleged film
fraud was started some time ago by
the Essanay and Keystone companies.
whose customers were complaining that
obscure moving picture houses were get
ting chaplin films. The lessees Of the
legitimate films knew that the smaller
houses could not nave afforded the
STANDARD rentals and were under the i'm
preston that the exchanges were charg-
!.g different prices for use OF the films.
Low was held in $1,000 bail for a
hearing on October IL. He furnished
q bond. Some OF the alleged counterfeit
Chaplin reels were seized in Brooklyn
y stcrday on an order issued by a Fed
eral judge.
