BROADWAY AND ELSEWHERE

interesting Of the quintet, as present
indications point TO a most distin-
guished company in association with
Miss Barrymore in her first appearance
as the star Of classical play.
II has long been the desire Of Miss
Barrymore's friends to see her and her
two brothers together in one produc-
ton. The tremendous success Of Peter
Ibbetson," with John and Lionel Barry
more in combination, plainly forecasts
a fortune for the manager who can
gather the three Barrymores together
in the same production. The oppor-
tunity would now seem to be at hand
in this play. For who could be bet
ter Charles Surface than Jack? and
who a better Joseph Surface than
Lionel?
In addition TO this interesting prob
ability, Cyril Maude is known to be
itching 70 play old Peter Teazle, and il,
would not be surprising if next spring
sees him travel from Australia 70 New
York TO take part in this production.
Mr.. Maude is miserable when he plays
the part Of a man less than eighty
years old, and Peter Teazle holds par
ticular place in his esteem. He has sew
eral times expressed d-sire TO put on
the Sheridan masterpiece with an
American actress in the role OF Lady
Teazle, and at one time considered
Laurette Taylor.
Certainly a production enlisting the
services Of Mr.. Maude and the three
Barrymores would arouse tremendous
interest.
Mis-. Taylor, BY the way, will not be
seen at the Globe Theatre next year,
which will be given over to Fred Stone.
Theatregoers who visit the Liberty
in September will find it to be an en-
tirely new playhouse, as Josef Urban is
now busily engaged in redecorating the
interior a la mode. Both the archi-
lecture and the color schemes will re-
ceive a touch Of Urban distinction.
Il is doubtful il any foreign produc-
ton ever played on Broadway in
the manner Of Some the English
revue which Raymond Hitchcock pur-
chased in London for presentation in
this country. Manifestly it could not
be put on in its original form, so Mr..
Hitchcock engaged corps of adapters,

years ago. The late Charles Frohman
had contemplated a pretentious pro-

star, and many memoranda found
among bis effects will be followed in
staging the piece.
Mis-. Barrymore was seen as Nine.

This appearance in Clyde Fitch's well
known comedy marked her introduc-

In 1910 Miss Barrymore made her

Pinero's great tragedy, "Mid-Channel."

TO revamp the piece for local consump-
ton. After alterations had been COM
pleted, Some" mere shadow Of It's
former self, was issued under the title
CT "Hitchy-Koo." During the past week
the only remaining song from the orig
insl, entitled Have You Seen the
Ducks Go By" was removed, and the
performance now has not one line or
bar Of music from its progenitor. In
short, "Hitchy-Koo" is brand new

q weekly royalty to Andre Chariot, who
produced Some" at the Vaudeville
Theatre, London.
While this is an extreme case, many
imported musical comedies are present
ed in forms scarcely recognizable BY
their authors. Franz Lehar's "The
Man With Three Wives" reached Broad
way with but three original" numbers,
and Strauss's "My Lady's Glove" now
at the Lyric, has only four or FIVE orig
inal numbers left
The evident deligh. with which Amer
lean "hack writer's" pounce upon for
eign successes and hew them TO pieces
is said to be a great topic of converse
ton at the Cafe Museum, Vienna,
where Lehar, Strauss, Kalman and
other composers foregather nightly.
With their works, however. the reason
is simple: American singers are gen.
orally unequal TO the task Of interpret
ing the Viennese scores. But in the
case OF "Some" the explanation is no,
so easily discovered.
As "Hitchy-Koo," however, 1. q great

MAYOR MAKES STATEMENT.

There has been considerable dis.
cussion for and against the proposed
pool hall ordinance and there seems
TO have been a miscoustruction of the
motives of some of the members Of
the city commission. In order to put
the matter straight Mayor Lasher was
interviewed yesterday relative to the
failure of the ordinance passing at
the last meeting of the city commits
sioners and said

as drawn by the City Attorney proyi,

and his motion to pass same as read

don desired that the ordinance be
IreWritten providing for the extension
Of all pool hall licenses until the date
ion which the last one should expire
which would have been Dec. 10, 1917
His motion to pass the ordinance in
that form failed to receive a second
for the reason that it would have per
mitted all the Objectionable pool halls
to exist for almost another year. Mr.
Martins idea was that by passing
the ordinance so as to cut out each
hall as its license expire, each licenses
would get all that he has paid for and
the city would thereby be relieved oI
these Objectionable places i'm about
four months instead OF having tt
wait for nearly a year for the Law
to begin to take effect. II appeared

that the Mayor would have to cas-

gladly done so II Mr.. London hat
seconded Martins motion, or even II
the latter case II would have been ac
cepted as the best we could get

The statement of the Ardmoreite- o

ma that legitimately belonged here,
and unless some change is made in
the laws covering this industry there
lis little prospect that any more will
locate in Oklahoma in the near fu-
ture.
The oil men have information that
several unreasonable bills against
their interests will be introduced dur.
ing the coming week and as they de.
sire to remain in the state where their
interests lie, they are going to make
an effort to secure less unrayorable
Legislation.
The oil men are aroused and active,
They are as q rule progressive men
who want to help make Oklahoma a
great state In physical wealth, but
they claim that they are being driven
away by adverse legislation.
It is expected that important devel
opmeuts will be made within the next
few days, and upon the outcome OF
this will depend in a large measure
the future development Of the oil in
dustry here.
Plans have been formulated Ia
build large aud beautiful city at
Tulsa. The same plans apply to Ard
more and several other towns in the
state. Do our legislators hope to de.
yelop Oklahoma by driving capital
from its borders and levy unjust trib
ute on the one great industry tha;
has made Oklahoma famous. Unjust
taxation will do it.
Legislators who vote for the reduc
tion Of the unjust taxes placed on
the oil industry Of Oklahoma will have
the satisfaction of seeing Oklahoma
prosper as It should and will have the
praises Of the people whom they rep
resent
