A Dumas Playa Marriage OF
Convenience" written by the elder
Dumas several generations ago, was
one of the delights of the theatrical
year in New York last spring. 1t Is
costume play of the period of the ex-
travagant Louis XIV. Twenty-one
years ago it was played by John Drew
and his associates. It was IN the
repertoire of Lewis Waller and Mage
Titheradge on their American tour
several years ago.
The elder Dumas was fairly pro-
life writer when one recalls that ne
is credited with at least 1900 literary
works. 1t was after he had written
his series of swashbuckllng novels
that he sought fame in the theater:
Posterity Immediately calls to mind
The Three Musqueteers" and quite
forgets that his Henry III scored
the first great success OF the roman
tic movement in the French drama
and that "a Marriage of Convenience
has held the stage since his day ana
has the honor of place in the roper
toire of the Coincide Franchise.
Won Fame in Vaudeville.-Aaron
Hoffman, author of William Golfers
new comedy, which is to have its first
presentation on any stage at the Bel
asco Theater this week, is one OF the
authors of Friendly Enemies" Mr.
Hoffman's name is not unfamiliar to
playgoers, but until recently it was
in the vaudeville field that he found
the greatest outlet for his work. He
began writing vaudeville sketches and
monologues at seventeen years of age,
when he was student at the Unlver-
sity of Chicago. Lew Dockstader was
one of his first clients, and it is
worthy of mention that Mr.. Hoffman
is now writing a new political mono
logue for that popular blackface
comedian. Cliff Gordon one of vaude-
ville's best known figures. was an
other successful exploiter of the prod
uct of Mr.. Hoffman's pen. Vaudeville
patrons who recall his political mono
tician, will likewise recall that the
material used was exceptionally tart,
bright and up to date. Other popular
vaudeville headliners for whom Mr..
Hoffman has furnished matter are:
Fred Niblo, James Harrigan. Weber
and Fields. Kolb and Dill, Julian Rose,
the late Joe WEIGH, Jess Dandy, Nora
Bayes and Henry Lewis. His first
work for the stage in which an entire
company was engaged was for the
late Rogers brothers.
