Despite q melodramatic title and
plot, "The Barton Mystery" is played
in farce tempo at moments, vagary
that does not initiate against its sue
cess, which has been attested by rec
ord Of two hundred performances in
London. II is from the pen OF Walter
Hackett, an American. The Shuberts,
VINO are producing it, have brought
over A. f. Arson, an English actor, TO
take the leading part.
The play has one scene, which is
laid in London, in the home Of Richard
Standish. Standish's sister-in-law is
engaged to marry Harry Maitland, who
is charged with the murder of one
Barton. An Oriental seer saves Matt
land by psychic power, and Is then
called upon to save the girl, who has
been caught in the same tolls.
In the company supporting Arson
are Charlotte Granville, Mary Male
son, Jane Wheatly, Beatrice Prentiss,
Marion Morgan, Henry Stanford, G. W.
Arson, Thomas OMalley and Arthur
Row. Matinees will be given on
Thursday and Saturday.

No Royal Road to Acting

Her conquest Of the Northwes.
brought her many fa,terng offers. She
accepted one from Mr.. Belasco 10 ap.
pear in stock in his theatre in Los An
geles. Later, when Mr.. Morosco bought
Mr.. Belasco's interests, she leased tho
Auditorium in Los Angeles, organized
her own company and engaged as her
leading man no less a parsonage than
Nat Goodwin.
Miss Rambeau had many offers 10
appear in New York. Henry Savage
offered her role in "Everywoman,'
and by an interesting coincidence the
first metropolitan theatre into which
she ever set foot was the Maxine FL
lott, where she is now playing. Ths
occasion was a REHEARSAL Of Every
woman" which she had come TO see.
Her actual debut in New York was
for various reasons postponed until
three seasons ago, when she appeared
at the Longacre Theatre in comedy
called $50 Much for SO Much" In all
she has appeared locally " four pieces,
Sadie Love-" Cheating Chesters,"
eyes of Youth and the one first mem
toned, all comedies by some whimsy
of fate, and only her present vehicle
affording her opportunity for emotional
expression.
In view Of her own experience and
aspirations in the theatre Miss RAM
beau's pet aversion is that numerous
host of men and women who go on tho
stage because tits easy or because ].
affords extraordinary opportunity for
self-dlsplay.

For nine months preparations have
been under way for the American pro-
duction of "Chu Chin Chow" a spec
tacular musical entertainment import
ed by william Elliot, F. Ray Comstock
and Morris Gest, now in the second
year Of its run at His Majesty's The
atre, London. The settings have been
reproduced on a considerably enlarged
scale to suit the proportions OF the
Manhattan Opera House stage, whereas
the costumes are exact copies OF the
originals, and E. Lyall Swete, stage
director Of His Majesty's Theatre, has
staged the production.
"Chu Chin Chow" an Oriental fan
tasy based on tales in the Arabian
Nights, was written by Oscar Asche
and set to music by Frederick Norton.
The play is not Chinese, but derives
it's name from the disguise Of Abu
Hasan, robber chief, who enters Bag
dad with his band and poses as man
DARN. A resourceful slave girl cir
cumvents his designs out Of revenge.

Marjorie Rambesu, star Of eye. Of
Youth" at the Maxine Elliott Theatre,
gazed thoughtfully at the waters Of
Long Island Sound from the front win
dows of her beautiful new country
home and came as dangerously close to
indignation as an amiable disposition
will permit.
The reason was that fervent ad-
mirer had inadvertently remarked that
il was wonderful that an inexperienced
girl should come to New York unher-
aided and in three seasons attain so
distinguished a place in the American
theatre. "All this" he added. ais like
one Of Horatio Ayers romances." By

and the various Injuries attendant on
stardom. at ought to encourage young
girls who want to 60 on the stage"
IF it does" flashed Miss Rambeau,
"it's positively immoral. don't know
how the idea got about that came to
New York an inexperienced girl and
Immediately became a leading woman
and then a star. Flattering as this may
be TO me personally and encouraging a.
IL Is, no doubt, to ambitious girls, it is
a terrible reflection on the art of act
ing, don't you think? Can you imagine
the public believing that man became
a doctor or lawyer overnight"
The fact is that few actresses have
travelled as long and hard road TO
success. Miss Rambeau's professional
career began at the age OF twelve. At
thirteen she was a leading woman in
stock in Portland, Ore, and bore on her
infant shoulders the burden of "Cs-
MILE" "Under Two Flags" and other
oldtime favoritcs. Her stock activities
carried her to Dawson City, Alaska,
where she introduced the art of the
theatre, building her own rude play
house, instructing the citizens in the
rudiments of acting and enlisting their
services in her various productions.
The experience, in spite of its many
hardships, is one of her most treasured
memories,

Miss Terry's Plans

1t has been divulged that Ewes
Daughter" in which Grace George
opened her season at the Playhouse
last night, was originally to have been
a vehicle for Phyllis Nelson Terry,
under the management of Joe Brooks,
but that Miss George secured the play
after Miss Terry had had it for year.
Miss Terry will appear later in the
season in another new play. in which
her role will be strikingly different
from any which she has hitherto I'M
dertaken. The play itself is said to be
an unusual novelty. Miss Terry. who
played leading parts with Beerbohm
Tree, has been regarded for some time
as essentially a Shskespearian actress.

Tiger Rose


crimsoned by autumn was the iilmy
frock in which Lenore Ulrich came
floating backstage one evening last
week Just before the first curtain OF
Tiger Rose" called her before the au-
dence at the Lyceum Theatre. Like
autumn leaves drifting were likewise
her free, graceful movements, and
something in the minor cadence OF
her voice gave further suggestion OF
the year at October.
Not that she's sad, this picturesque
wisp of femininity. Serious were the
better word. In reality her life is at
spring. but she lives and moves and has
her being in mood so serious that
sometimes it touches her voice with
bewitching wistfulness and adds
quaint and piquant note to her pict-
uresque charm.
She talked first Of the play. the
virile melodrama Of the great North
west, of which she is the central figure.
She said she loves Tiger Rose be-
cause of her freedom from social con-
ventions; because Of her strong and
primitive emotions and fearlessness;
because of her embodiment of the Ca
madam Northwest; because Of the force
and beauty Of her love and the fierce
ness of her hate; because she is pict-
uresque and frank and honest and
4 spontaneous all in one. She said she
loves the play because Of its great love
story and the beauty of its atmosphere.
She spoke Of the diversity of charsc-
terization- which Willard Mack has &C
complished in his trsnsference Of the
varying Alberta types to the New
York stage, and of the perfection Of
the production which Mr.. Belasco has
made. At last she was prevailed upon
to speak Of herself.
al have no personal life outside OF
the theatre" she said. IL have no fad
but the theatre, no recreation save the
theatre. | am miserable in any other
place than the theatre"
1t was astonishing to think that a
lovely dark sprite Of twenty-four sum-
mers could be in earnest in such dec
larstion.
at was always So" she continued.
when | was just a little girl-not
more than ten-I told my mother that
would go on the stage when | was
older. She said it was impossible. that
it would never do. ! cried and sulked
for days, and decided that | would kill
myself if she proved obdurate. Going
to the theatre and reading about 1t
we're the only things ever wanted to
do as a child.
"And when at the close Of my school
work in Milwaukee my dream came
true and ! began my work as an extra
girl in a stock company, was supreme
( ly elated. Since then there has never
been a happy moment for me away
from the theatre.
"Why, when it was necessary to wait
after my appearance in The Heart of
Wetona' until Mr.. Belasco could find
the right play for me, being out of the
theatre made me so III that my doctor
went to Mr.. Belasco and told him that
it would never do, that ! would fret
myself into a serious condition if
were much longer away from the stage.
And it was only after ! began re-
hearsals for Tiger Rose that ] be-
came we'll again"
All of which only proves that.we do
best the thing we love best!
