farce in which. he presents Miss Ina
Claire at the Garrick Theater Thurs
day night:
Because Of the chief Of police in
New Haven interfering with perform

preston has been created that Blue
boards Eighth Wife has, salacious
qualities. In my opinion it has none
whatever.
"If 1t had seemed to me that sort
of play should never have produced
it. During the long Paris engage
ment this farce by Alfred Savotr was
generally praised. Il was glad to be
able to purchase the American rights.
I considered 'Bluebeard's Eighth Wife
to be not only a fine technical achieve

logue, but also farce OF essentiai
significance. -. -.
Of q struggle which ensues when 2
domineering man who has been accus-
toned to ride rough -shod over women
meets his match. In this case the lady
is his wife-the eighth, as 1t happens.
Other women attracted him previous
ly, but instead Of having affairs with
them he married them. When he
found he no longer loved them he dt-
vorced them. They were merely incl
dents in his life.

The De Mile screen version of '"The

Jeanie MACPHERSON, who used the
original Schnitzler stage manuscript
and the Granville Barker adaptation.
The theme deals with an impress
sionable young man Of wealth, who
finds time to interest himself in the
affairs of a number Of young women,
but who eventually discovers that 1t
pays best to attend ones own affairs
and 1et others do the same.
