ByRNE,s BEST STORY.

Frank Byrne. one OF tho members
of "Tne Eternal Magdalene" COM
pany, tells droll story of the time
when Henry Miller was presenting
"The Havoc"-the Sheldon play in
which there we're only three charac-
ters. one OF whom was Mr.. Byrne.
Miller and Byrne had rehearsed four
different leading women In the third
role of the piece, and had grown
steadily more despairing, until Mr..
Miller decided to conscript Laura
Hope Crews. Miss Crews was under
the Miller management, but she had
held out for Il comedy part-in which
"The Havoc" was conspicuously def
cient. Mr.. Miller's flnal-and effec-
tive-argument with Miss Crews was
to threaten, IL she refused him. to

"The Eternal MagdaIene" Is
Offering With Original
Company.

Ever since the announcement of the
coming Of THE Eternal Magdalene'
10 the Shubert Theatre, January II,
Tor a weeks engagement was made.
interest in the forthcoming production
las grown rapidly.
THE Eternal Magdalene" is a sub
iect that appeals to the people of
every community of every country
On the globe At one time or another
the people of every city in the country
lave been called upon TO face the
problem which Robert Mclaughlin,
the author of the play. has handled
in so masterful manner.
Old as his theme is. however, Mr..
Mclaughlin has found a new treat
.ient for it and the skill hs has
brought to play in drawing his char
;lcters make of them living people.
Briefly, while 1.-THE Eternal Magda-
lane" is a play which deals with the
social problem, it does not speak of it
in a manner either offensive or flip
rant. The author has constructed
story of genuine dramatic appeal. and
makes no bid for popularity by re-
sorting to any of the tricks SO often
employed in the so-called vice or sex
plays.
The entire action takes place in the
home Of the leading citizen Of a fair
sized American city. The man has
financed a whirlwind evangelistic
campaign to wipe out a vice center
which has flourished in the city. At
moment when he is taking some
personal satisfaction I'm the part
which he has played in the campaign.
s. series of events occur which point
out to him his own incompetency to
pass Judgment on his fellow creatures.
Selwyn & Co, who present THE
Eternal Magdalene." have brought
the play to Newark with all Miss
Arthur's company in their original
roles. The Woman in the play, as
interpreted by Julia Arthur after an
absence from the stage. has been the
seasons greatest success, Others IN
the company are: Dodson Mitchell,
Louise Randolph, Frank Byrne, Claire
Burke, Arnold Lucy. Alphonse Either

at Orpheum. :

1.-THE Common Law" which will be
the offering of the Brounell Stock
Company at the Orpheum Theatre
next week, is essentially a drama OF
today. Tho characters are air OF
flesh and blood. The theme, although
startling in the extreme, is in no way
lurid or morbid, and is built around
n subject that every man and woman
has at some time in their lives given
most serious consideration. 1t Is
presented with that delicacy of touch
and complete understanding of hu-
man emotions that only an artist
such as Robert w. Chambers is capas
BILE of imparting.
The reasoning powers of the young
woman In the case, whose mind, filed
with false ideas regarding the mar
rlage state and exalted character
of the artist, whose noble manhood
finally wins the girl over to his way
OF thinking. have been discussed ia
innumerable households and in alK

ever made n stronger appeal to gen :
eral humanity than have the crea~
tions OF the author of THE Common
