some of the Attractions of h
Present Week In brooklyn.

THE MoNTAuK-Elmer Reizenstein's
original play. which was seen for the
whole OF last season at the Gambler
Theatre. opened the week here last night
before an audience which was just as
absorbed in the unusual manner OF this
plays construction as those OF the past
season here were. This is a Conan &
Harris company. so all the parts are well
played.
THE MAJEsTIc-Nobody seemed to
be unnecessarily shocked last night
here for the first time. Julia Herne,
who cannot help being a good actress.
because she il Il member of the Herne
family, now acts the leading role, while
the other members OF the company are
fully equal to the difficulties in Charles
Summers play. Boston must be a
sensitive town to have found so much
that was ont OF the way In this play.
THE CREscENT-Patrons of the stock
theatres now have to wait but a
short time for the newest of the
plays. "The Miracle Man. that was
seen last week at the CIescent, was new
last fall, and "The shadow which was
acted there last night. was not given by
Ethel Barrymore at the Empire Theatre
until late In the season, Yet there
II was as the play in which the excel
lent stock company was appearing last
night to the delight of the large and
loyal audience which always comes TO
the Crescent.

FAILS TO
AMUSE AT COLONIAL
The Great IllusiOnist Is a
Great Disappointment
Here.
THREE REDEEMING ACTS

Constantine Bernardo bored a super
heated audience nearly to extinction at
the colonial Theatre yesterday after
noon. lie Is an illusionist who By the
aid OF a great many costumes into which
ne slips quickly, helped by half a dozen
dressers, attempts to impersonate many
characters. His fame had preceded him.
which was unfortunate. Had he got
here before his reputation the disappoint-
ment might have been less.
1t must be remembered that these So
called nlusionists have never been liked
here. There was Fregoh, who had been
acclaimed abroad and was only moder-
ately successful in New York. His sud-
den changes of dress, his dashing in and
out of doors. his shrieking falsetto and
all the rest OF the stock in trade of these
so-called transformation artists failed
TO make much impression on audiences
accustomed to the alert and brisk humor
OF American vaudeville. Bernardo,
whose brother has been doing the same
sort of thing in this country before. is
more finished than Fregoli was when he
appeared here. Blu there is II possible
even less vitality in his performance.
These acts are so largely mechanical
that anything like spontaneity or brisk
ness is out of the question. Behind
transparent scenery Bernardo appeared

football to emerge as a man or a woman.
whichever the garments and wigs that
the attendants thrust on him happened to
be. He was in turn the manager OF a the
ntre and various OF his unpaid actors, and
then as the Great Bernard himself he
tried to give a whole programme. There
were an act will bells, which n clown
played while reclining on his back "A
ventriloquist act, which failed of its
effect because Bernardo speaks English
with difficulty character studies OF COM
posers. which he gave while conducting
the orchestra-imagine a Colonial audi
enc knowing anything about Giacomo
Meyerbeer or Franz LisZt !-and three
really interesting illusions, such as the
little Ismael in the trunk. the pigeons in
the rug and the disappearance of the
illusionist himself. But 1t was too late
by this time TO awaken any interest In
what Bernardo had to offer. His scene
moved too slowly. its mechanics are too
complex, and these entertainments never
did interest American audiences. II Is
not OF course possible to say that they
never will. But they must be better than
Fregoli, Dufrece or the laborious per-
former OF yesterday afternoon. Indeed
there was much in this performance that
was provincial.

100000 REJECTED
BY HAMMERSTEIN
Rumored Attempt to Settle
Suit Brought Against United
Booking Offices.
CASE COMES UP TO-DAY

A tentative offer Of 5000, 900 to aban-
don the plan to give vaudeville at
the Forty-fourth Street Theatre has
been refused by Oscar Hammerstein
Of the Hammerstein Amusement Com
pany. This report was confirmed yes
terday by Arthur Hammerstein As a
result, the suit instituted by Mr.. Ham
mcrstein against the United Booking
Offices and the Palace Theatre Com
any to compel them to allow William
Morris TO do business in the U. b. D.
offices as Hammerstein's general mana
ger. win come up for trial to-day in the
Supreme Court.
w are going to win the action,
too" said Arthur Hammerstein The
delay in the proceedings has been
caused by other engagements in which
our attorney, John b., Stanchfeld, a
first"
MI. Hammerstein then told about the
efforts to reach a settlement, adding {:
We could have received about $780,
900, but the negotiations didn't reach
a definite stage. We have no inten-
ton of a settlement outside Of the
granting Of our original demands"
At the offices OF the United Booking
Office no one would discuss the report
Of an attempt to settle. 1t was learned,
however. that II any offer was made,
II did not come directly from the L. Is.
q. officials. They appear al anxious as
Mr.. Hammerstein is to carry on the
suit.
The original action grew out Of the
attempt OF Oscar Hammerstein TO en-
gage vaudeville acts through the United
hooking Offices with William Morris
as his general manager. The United
Booking Offices alleged that when the
Victoria Theatre was vacated Mr.. Ham
merstein's franchise with them was
voided. Mr.. Hammerstein contends that
the only way he "a get good acts IL
through the United Booking Offices and
that his franchise held good in the Sec
ton between Thirty-ninth and Forty
seventh streets.
The Palace Theatre Company. which
was made a party 10 the action, alleges
that it paid Hammerstein not TO give
vaudeville In any theatre but the Vic
toria and that by moving to the Forty
fourth Street Theatr he violated that
agreement.

THE STRANp-Lou-Tellegen, who is
one of the most Interesting hyphenated
stranger within our gates, Is now APP
pearing in a picture version OF The
Explorer" the four act play of London
society and the wilds which Somerset
Vaughan wrote and Lewis Waller
acted. NJ. Tellegen Is too good an actor
not to succeed in a held in which the
mediocre actor easily ranks with the
best. Since 1t is not possible nowadays
for the old and tlorld romantic dramas
such as 1.-The Corsican Brothers and
THE Dukes Motto" to be acted. and
NJ. Tellegen's talents are especially
adapted TO this field. IL might have been
worth while to put him forward In one
of these plays on the screen. But
there seems a film prejudice more or
less strong against what used TO be
called costume plays

SEEN ON NEW STAGES.
Favorites That Have Won APP
proxnl Are welcomed Again.

THE LExINGToN-It rarely happens
that a farce comes TO one OF the COM
bination theatres with so many OF the
original actors as II. II. Frazee has put
into "A Full House." which Frederick
jackson wrote for the Longacre Theatre
last spring. But George Parsons, Her
bert Corthell and May Nokes, Edgar
Norton and Berenice Buck are there
among the original comedians who
brought the farce its first New York sue
cess. Last nights large audience en-
joyed the play as much as ever.
THE YoRK-Plays of stage life al

Inevitably happen hat the general pub
lie, TO which a little glimpse OF the
atre life IL sufficient, takes the same
pleasure out OF them. But James
Forbes made 1.-THE Show Shop" so skill
fully that 1t is as interesting TO the
public as il Is to the actors. who are
amused by its accurate professional
touch. Zelda Sears as n typical stage
mother and George Sidney as one OF
the pillars of the managerial fraternity
delighted the audience last night.
THE SrANDARD-Florence Malone, an
attractive and charming actress who
made her reputation In the stock the
aires and then retired for two years. Is
acting again in Unde Cover" which is
the play at this popular theatre this
week. Rockline Fellows, who Is also
n screen player of popularity, acted the
part once played by William Courtenay.
The audience last night delighted in the
duel OF wits between the smuggler and
the revenue officer as much as II the play
had never been seen here before.
BRONX OPERA HoUsE-When r c.
Megrue wrote at Pays to Advertise"
he did something more than devise in
teresting situations and write witty
speeches. He selected the most popular
theme known to this public. In modern
life there is nothing more interesting
than business. 1t is the most absorbing
topic to eight Americans out Of ten,
SO there is a fortune in store for any
playwright h utilizes the subject
as we'll as Mr.. Megrue has.

"MOLOCH" HAS TO DO
WITH WAR SOLELY
PLAY at the New Amsterdam
Theatre without Place
or Time.
HORRORS ARE ALL THERE
"Moloch"-At the New Amsterdam
Theatre.

The programme at tho New Amster-
dam Theatre last night made 1t plain
that the play in prologue and epilogue,
with three acts in between, was not a
war play. For 'Moloch' by Beulah NJ.
Dix is described as a play about war"
The difference might be found to lie
I'm the vagueness OF the author as to
time and place. Somewhere in Europe"
might he taken as a description of the
scenes In which the action of the new
play passes. One can read Belgium or
Poland, France or Austria into the acts
OF the play and what the author depicts
as the results OF war will be equally
true. She has chosen a particular fam
iy group to exhibit the devastating eff
fects OF the tribute to Moloch which
gives the play its title.
In the prologue, which passes in a
country house. there Is ak of the dan
ger Of impending war in q family which
has possessed soldiers for generations.
These gentlepeople OF the upper class
have as guests a young foreigner, a
physician. who has won the love Of the
daughter of the house after having won
the gratitude OF the family for his SER
vices in saving the life of its youngest
member. The family is sceptical Of
tNe real dppTpdCH OF WAT, just us the
world was sceptical a year g last July.
Suddenly word comes that war has been
declared and the young son of the
eneny's country Is ban!shed.
The first act shows a town house
ten days later. The haste and excite
m,nt of mobilization are shown. Young
girls are saying good-by to departing
sweethearts and there are leavetakings
OF all kinds. Seven months pass before
this same house is shown after the town
has been invaded by the hostile armies,
the armies moreover whose certain de-
feat had been predicted in the first act.
out OF revenge a maddened servant mur-
ders one of the enemy's officers, who
had found refuge in this home. Punish

servant against a wall. the expulsion of
the family INTO the streets, the destruc-
ton Of the once happy home by fire
and the death of the little boy from ex-
posure.
