The pedigree of "'rhe Blue Kitten"
which Arthur Hanmerstein introduced
at the Selwyn last night is orthodox
enough. 1t used to be said that good
Americans went to Paris when they
died. Now most of the musical plays
with a Sserviceable intrigue had their
origin In the City Of Light. The Blue
Kitten" qualified in this particular.

Mirande and Gustave Quinson. SO far.
as the saying goes, so good. But enter
prising American impresarios such as
Arthur Hammerstein do not stop here.
At this point they in fact may be said
to begin.
So before the show which the audi
ence that filed the Selwyn saw last
night was ready for an American pres
entation, there had been called in Otto
HarEach and w. C. Duncan to write
an operetta book and lyrics Rudolf

experts as Edgar Selwyn, Leon Enrol
and Julian Mitchell to add the final
touches. Verify the mountains labored.

ways seems something lacking so long
as he does not return 20 the broken Eng

to the eyes of an earlier generation or
theatergoers. He did ii just as irresisti-

WIDOW OF ENGINEER /,
SAYS HE VAS NOT I'LL

Mrs. May wescott, the engineers
widow. this morning denied reports that
her husband probably had been III on
the night Of the wreck and failed to
see the signal set against him.
my husband was in perfect health, :"
she said. "He left here Sunday night
as usual to 20 to the roundhouse for his
engine. And nothing could have been
wrong with the mechanism Of the en-.
gine. for he always was very careful.
He tested the machinery thoroughly be-
fore even attempting to take loco
motive on the road.
Mrs. Wescott believes her husband
was running fast to make up lost time
and the towerman at Winslow juno
ton set the signal against him, II he
did set It. too late for the engineer
to slacken up. This belief, she said,
came from the many accounts Of the
werck told her by other engineers.
Her opinion is shared by Edward
Sickler, her brother law. Sicklei
said wescott repeatedly. told him OF
being forced to make up lost time when
his train was held back IN Camden.
HE used to say" Sicklef said,
THAT the company wouldn't stop
speeding the trains until something hap.
pened. And now that It has happened
I suppose the officials will do some :
thing about starting the trains of on
