organization. which declared that the
Poles Will no longer sit In the Reichs-

their own independent government but
10 align themselves. supported by the
Austrian Poles, against Aushia-hun-

Rooneys Reincornotion
In a Vaudeville Comedy

Pat Rooney, son of the famous old
time Irish song and dance comedian
of the same name, song and dance
artist himself, is about to be reincar-
mated. He is going to be real "hon-
est-to-goodness" actor, play real part
in real sketch and not even sing a
note nor shake a foot. Rooney's We
hiclc is to- be one-act comedy by
Samuel Shipman and Clara Lipman, en-
titled, cover Here" 1t will soon be
seen in New York, in Keith Supreme
Vaudeville" There are four other peo-
pie in the cast, the principal one being
Mrs. Pat Rooney (Maron Bent).
There is still another Pat Rooney who
has reached the proud age of six years
and has already appeared on the stage
with his father and mother. Maybe
some day he will turn out to be the
greatest farceur, dramatic star or
operate favoritc in America Ono
never can tell on the stage.

ing-he was declaiming an impassioned
declaration to Juliet; at his feet, cal
lous and cold to the passionate words
falling on her ears, sat black cat
calmly washing her face with her soft
paw. The audience giggled. Mr.. Gaul
tried by foul means to persuade the
cat to finish her toilet in the wings
But the cat only Struggled closer, the
better to hear, it seemed, and stayed on
until the curtain dropped.
Mr.. Gaul's Interpretation of the
darby, Genesis, has been most ap-
plauded by Southerners. For he plays
Genesis as Southern darby "gone
wrong-gone No'th"-that Is, the South
training and the niceties the Southern
family had instilled in him and as
sumes the famboyant air of equality
and unrestrained frankness of the
Northern negro. Genesis, for instance,
keeps his hat on when he enters the
Baxters' house, and even when talking
to Mrs. Baxter. That touch makes the
distinction between the Southern and
Northern negro-and Genesis is both.
During the past month Mr.. Gaul has
been learning and playing the part of

Impressive Record
For Quick Studies

"Quick studies" are . byword in the
atrical circles, and many a man and
woman in the profession lays claim to
being the champion in that line but un-
less some one arises to eontrovert the
claims Of William J. Kelly he must be
given the laurel wreath. He is now
playing the role of the young Irish
American major in Seven Days
| Leave" He prides himself moro ON his
ability to "get up in part" than in
anything else he does.
He was called upon at midnight to
play the role made vacant by the sud-
den illness of Henry B. Warner in Will
ton Lackaye's production of "The Bat
tie" at the Savoy Theatre, and learned
the seventytwo pages of manuscript
and played the part at the matinee the
next day.
He was called upon by David Belasco
to get up in Aubrey Boucicault's part
in "The Lily" at the Belasco Theatre.
The role was of forty-eight pages. He
studied it on train from Washington
to New York and went on that same
night.
Henry Ainsley, the English actor, was
taken Ill while leading man with Clara
