Transforming the Hippodrome Stage
Into Frozen Lake.

The ice spectacle entitled Flirting
at ST. Moritz," which closes Zip, Hip,
Hooray" at the Hippodrome, reveals
the mechanical genius of Charles Dill
ingham. Varied uses have been made
of the immense pool in the Hippo
drome. Always until this present sea
son these uses have been associated
with the employment OF water in some
form. Hip, Hip, Hooray' marks the
first time that this pool has been
frozen solid and used for an Illus
tration on the stage of winter scene.
For the first time in the history of
stage effects an immense pool, SO by 40
feet in size and completely filling every
inch of the largest stage In the world,
is employed in a skating scene of ex-
quisite beauty. The forestage, 96 by
10 feet, is cut into sections approx
mately IL by Q feet. These sections
rest on framework of iron girders
which In turn are supported by series
OF mammoth pistons, four in mum
ber When water spectacles were used
as part OF the entertainment, this
forestage was removed In sections and
tho structure lowered on It's pistons
to whatever depth was necessary for
the aquatic spectacle. To make the
ice stage possible. the iron structure
has been lowered TO depth Of only
eighteen inches. Upon this framework
is placed system OF pipes through
which is run brine and ammonia;
plant technically known as the com
pressor system. The pipes run in
series about 2ts inches apart, and re-
semblc more than anything else g-
gantlc steam radiators. Sixteen thous.

forestage. This, acting as non-con-
ductor, keeps the performers from get
ting cold feet during the acts Of the
play preceding the ice ballet.
The lake, as it is now used for the
expert skaters, was formed the latter
part of the summer. First the system
was tested, the pipes lowered to a
temperature Of about ten degrees and
water turned on the pipes TO n depth
Of six inches. II took sixty-fve hours
to freeze Lake Moritz. But once frozen
the lake has given little trouble and
the engineers promise that IL will last
until long after the skating months
have passed. To keep the ice in its
present state il is neces sary to run
the plant for about two hours after the
matinee each day and for about eight
hours each night. II is estimated that
if the plant was shut down the lake
would not melt for twenty-four hours.
As those who have seen the spectacle
at the Hippodrome know. the second act
closes at the San Francisco Fair and
the third act opens with the lake in
Switzerland. During the intermlssion.
the forestage Is taken up in sections
and hurriedly carted down runways TO
the regions under the playhouse. The
ice caretakers then go over the sur
face with brushes to see that nothing
Is left on the surface Of the ice, and the
premiere skater and her two hurd red
ice entertainers having tested their
skates, the curtain il drawn aside on
the lovely scene.
Following each performance, before
the stage is relaid for the coming en-
tertainmcnt, n scraper machine is run
over the ice, taking Off about one
eighth Of an inch. This is carted off
and the surface is then treated to
fine spray Of hot water. When the hot
water has evened the ice to perfectly
level surface. the plant is started to
work and new coat of about one

There are certain limitations 10 the
art of Leo Ditrichstein. Possibly that
is WHY his Jean Paurel is such an eN-
traordinarily fine piece Of work. Many,

perticular figure. Here in The Great

Is not an emotional actor. lie Is 81 MS

ables him to touch any NUMBER o.
moods but pursue not one 70 us utter.
most boundaries. The emotions OF
Paurel are many, but none is deep.
First II was "The Affairs Of Anatol,'
and now the letter scene in The Great

Once II was the newspaper reporter
who received the harshest treatment
from the dramatists, but now unqufs-
tionably no man is so much maligned
as the minister. Every clergyman
whom we have seen on the stage this
season has been a hypocrite, excert
one, who was mercifully pictured as a
fool. Some day a dramatist viii put
a real preacher on the stage. but il
