Athletes and Rules.
THAT an athlete may defy all

THAT an athlete may defy all the
rules laid down by experts for
eating, drinking. sleeping, exercising
and general mode of living and at
the same time be n strong man and
an equilibrist is said to be exempli-
fed by the Rath brothers, rated by
DR.. Sargent, the physical Instructor
at Harvard University. as perfect
specimens of physical manhood.
Neither one of the Rath brothers
follows any set schedule or partic-
ular regularity in living. "Of
course" says Dick. I'VE do not do
any all-night carousing. but in a
general way we follow the same
course as the everyday mortal. By
that 1 mean we eat what we like. If
we feel like smoking we do it. We
drink anything and everything that
appeals to the taste and is not in
toxicating-in short we are bound by
no strict rules of diet or mode of
living
"a good clean mind. plenty of good
fresh air and any and all wholesome
food that appeals to the tongue and
stomach are the only recipes we fol-
low, and the same system is all the
majority needs for good health"

BY ELENORE DE WITT EBY.

YIIASHINGTON theatergoers have
w been eagerly awaiting Miss
Lenore Clric's appearance in her new
Characterization, "Kiki." and they
were well rewarded when the past
week brought her to the National.
The part is. as promised, distinctly
different" from any she has previ-
ously portrayed, although We catch a
few faint glimpses of "Tiger-Rose" in
her careless handling of words unsuaI-
ly indicated by dots and dashes, and
in the assertion of an all-powerful
love that will do and dare all
In costumes there is Il decided con-
ances. Far removed from the exotic
beauty of "The Bird of Paradise or
the eastern splendor of THE Som
Daughter" we see in "Kiki'' a little
urchin of the Paris streets. evincing
IA taste in fashions as bad and yet as
unconscious as her language. Her
first entrance is made in an absurdly
scant black and white checked skirt,
bright orange blouse and small green
turban, topped by a long question
mark' feather. Later. when she is
given the opportunity of ordering
gowns as she chooses. Kiki sarbs
herself in 4 bizarre creation of black
velvet. with a wide skirt Of old rose
taffeta. and wears five or six strings
of vari-colored beads around her
neck.
The gown pictured was oddly becon,-

THE SERVANT IN THE HOUSE,

Dolls House" to space out the III
term.
Reports from others, whose opir
ions he sought, caused Mr.. Miller tu
feel the play would not be a success.
But as arran EementS had been made
for its presentation. he did at last de-
eide to give il production.
THE Servant had its premiere in
March, 1902. for one night only, i'll
Baltimore. the single date being for
the purpose of giving Mr.. Miller. who
was in Baltimore a the time. an op-
portunity of looking it over, as stated.
4 week later the piece opened at the
Savoy Theater, New York, and proved
immensely. popular. 1t ran for almost
a season in New York and later du-
plicated in other cities its metropoli-
tan vogue. Mr. Hampden appeared as
Manson. Miss Mathison as Auntie and
Tyrone Power as The Drainman. Ma
bel Moore. who played the original
Mary in the cast. will appear here
with Mr.. Hampden in the same role.
SO that two of the major parts will
be filled by their originators.
The play cleaned up quarter Of Il
million net profit before il was with
drawn. Indeed, its success was such
that il proved the forerunner for may
symbolic plays of the sort, including
the famous Passing of the Third
Floor Back Last season Mr.. Hamp-
den felt the time was opportune for
its revival and the enormous success
marking its temperance justified
his belief.

New Films for Schools.

FOLLOWING fast on the public
procurement by William Jen-
nings Bryan that 'the motion picture is
one Of the greatest educational institu-
tions that man has known" and there
isn't anything good that cannot be
taught by motion pictures" comes the
announcement Of new films suitable for
schools and churches. for Christmas
programs, including ''The Fairy and the
Waif," "Holy Night" "God and the
Man" "I and the Mountain" and others
like them.
Always on the lookout for such films
as are suitable for the non-theatrical
exhibitor, Harry Levey, who specializes
in such things, has recently added sew
eral big features to his film library.

The Rat Kaligaro8.

THE New York zoo recently re-
ceived a large and varied con-
signment of mammals. birds and rep
tiles from Australia and South Africa
Many of the Australian accessions
have never before been exhibited
alive in the United States. Among
them are several species of kanga-
roos. the most remarkable being the
West Australian rat kangaroo.
When sitting upright this creature
is only fourteen inches high. 1t is
particularly interesting and remark
able because of the srange character
istics of the tail, which the animal
uses as support. as the larger and
typical kangaroos do. The tail is
almost naked. appears to be much
swollen and corrugated and apparent
ly segmented into rings. 1t is really
a reservoir for the storage of fatty
nourishment and enables the animal
to pass periods of several weeks in its
burrow without eating. After a
period of such fasting the diameter
of the tail is SO greatly reduced that
it is no larger than that of other
small species of rat kangaroo. Four
species of genus Bettongia are known.
all of which are remarkable for using
the tail to seize and carry grasses, for
a nest. The animal scoops a hollow
in the ground; but as that leaves the
entrance on 4 level with the sur
rounding herbage, it closes it with
grass. which it drags after it, and so
makes a lair that is extremely hard

Why He Did 1t.

nAVID wARk. GRIFFITH was
- asked to explain why he gave
such an elaborate screen production
to Way Down East" This is his eN-
planation:
81 selected Lottie Blair Parker's
story of Way Down East because it
lies closer to the human heart than
any play 1 ever read dealing with
plain people and told in a plain man
ner. / have had so many requests
from those who care for my work to
perpetuate. insofar as the motion pic
ture may be capable Of perpetuation,
this story of New England life.
Naturally, being southerner, L
might have preferred to handle the
subject from the viewpoint of man
who was born and who has lived in
the south. l am kentucklan and
mighty proud of ie.
But my heart is not sectional. l
can see human love and human kind
ness in Maine just as quickly as
can see it in Alabama. Way Down
East is a human story, humanely told
by a woman who deserves place in
the dramatic and literary hall of fame
for the reason that she has given to
the American people as a heritage one
of the most tender and appealing
stories ever written.
1--WE have all too many of the other
kind of stories these days. and we
need sometimes to turn aside from
the vampire and the charlatan and
let our eyes rest softly on the kindlier
and more sympathetic characters of
the long ago"

Miss Hanson is a native of Atlanta,
Ga. and went to New York, after a
career in amateur theatricals in At
lanta, fired with an ambition to be-
come a great dramatic actress. Like
many ambitious young women with
high ideals, she decided that f. H.
Sothern was one of the great dramatic
actors and that a schooling in his
classic organization would be the
finest kind of training for a dramatic
career.
Miss Hanson Joined Mr.. Sothern's
company at the time Florence Reed
was his leading woman. The first

which she had small part. Miss
Marlowe, who had been appearing
with Mr.. Sothern. had temporarily re-
tired from the stage at that time. and
SO Miss Reed created the leading
feminine role. The play failed and
Mr.. Sothern put on revival of IF l
Were King" Miss Reed was taken
i'll, and as Miss Hanson was her un-
derstudy. she stepped into the leading
role of Sothern's great success. She
played the part for several weeks,
and the following season became Mr..
Sothern's leading woman in reper-
toire.
Following this. Miss Hanson played
a season with Henry Miller. in a re-
vival OF '"The Great Divide" and then
went under the Belasco management,
appearing in leading roles in THE
Governors Lady" and THE Woman.
She became leading woman with Lou
Tellesen, in The Ware Case" and
played a season of classic dramatic
roles in the Greek plays produced by
Granville Barker.
Miss Hanson has performed also be-
fore the motion picture camera. ere

MARGUERITE LAMARE, the young
prima donna who will make her
first appearance here in THE Rose
Girl" is the daughter of Evelyn
Friend. leading ingenue of the famous
Boston Museum Stock Company dur
ing the last seasons of its existence,
and Lamare Middleton (Harvard '96b.
who for a score of years or more was
the Paris correspondent of tIfe Chicago
News and the New York Herald.
Miss Lamare herself was born in
France, and attended school in Boston
and Brookland. Next she went 10
Chicago, where she began her profess
sional career four years ago.
In Paris Miss Lamare met Mary
Garden, during that distinguished
artists career at the Opera Comique.
and it is said they formed fast
friendship. In Paris also Miss Isamare
had the advantage of instruction from
Nine. Bernhardt. in addition to her
mothers constant training. So il was
natural enough that she should begin
her career as a member of the French
Repertory Theater in the western
but presently graduating into leadinr
roles. Later, on advice of Mary
Garden. she became a member of tha
Chicago Opera Company.
Miss Lamare is petite and this is
one reason why musical comedy suits
her better than grand opera. She
made her debut as prima donna in the
title role of Little Simplicity" Now.
it is said. she has her best role in "The

May See Again.

THE many friends Of Ben Welch
1 who have known him in bur-
lesoue. in musical comedy and in
vaudeville have been much cheered
within the last few days by the re-
port that wefeh probably will be able
to see again before long. The news
is doubly interesting to Washington
people. for it was in this city last
season. when welch was playing with
the musical show Jimmie that he
lost his sight.
His eyes had been giving him
trouble for some time, and at times
the sight was considerably impaired.
During the week that Jimmie" ran
here. however. Welch came off the
stage after one scene completely
blind. He felt that the condition was
not temporary. but permanent. New
ertheless. he kept on playing his role.
not only during the remainder of
that week. but all the rest of the
season. and except members of the
company and q few friends no one
knew Of his misfortune until weeks
afterward. He had no difficulty in
finding his way about the stage and
few in the audience suspected that he
could see neither the others in the
cast nor the stage furnishings.
Welcf is a master of character de-
most popular comedians in buriesQue
and because the types he denicted
were so real he advanced steadily in
his profession until eventually he
reached high honors in vaudeville and
musical comedy.
