CKUTARI is the largest suburb of
~ Constantinople and, like that city
of the Golden Horn and like Rome, it is
built on seven hills. It is the ancient
Chrysopolis, or golden town. so named
because of the huge ransoms paid here
to Persians after many a war; and 1t
has been from the very remotest times
the great rendezvous of all caravans
arriving from Asia, and the spot from
which all travellers from Constantinople
commenced their eastward Journeys.
The bazaars and the mosques of Sku-
tart give 1t a Enthusiastically Oriental
appearance, but the finest buildings in
the city are those of italian origin.
Nevertheless, its mosques, of which there
are eight. deserve some attention in
spite of the fact that immense ST. So
phia, across the straits Of the OAR
denelles, dominate the scene and Gre
ate the greatest interest.

WILLIAM GILLETTE will bring his
revival of the Conan Doyle play,
Sherlock Holmes" to Washington the
night of Monday January 6, according
to definite announcement from New
York and by the National Theater man
agement here.
Insistent public demand led the pro-
ducers to extend the New York engage
ment by three weeks. 1t required the
sacrificing of the scheduled Philadelphia
engagement and results in a rerouting,
which will bring the production direct
to Washington. From here it will go
to Baltimore.
Success of the Gillette revival of the
play that was first presented in New
York in 1899 has astonished the re-
viewers and the "Wise uns,' despite their
acknowledgment of Gillette's excellent
performance in their opening reviews.
Out of curiosity files OF papers contain
ing reviews of the original production
were dug out.
It was found, to their CONSERVATION,
that the original play left the critics
bit cold. Sherlock Holmes" followed by
only a short interval the play Secret
Service" in which Gillette had ap-
peared as the bold investigator, Capt.
Thorne. His critics apparently thought
he should have waited longer before re-
Stunning his sleuthing.
After all these years the play Is ac-
claimed as a hit. Mr.. Gillette or the
critics are getting better.

Sitting in the Audience.

THE successful screen writer must
mentally "sit in the audience" while
he is writing stories and not behind a
desk, in the opinion of John F. Good
rich, who adapted Dorothy Mackaills
latest First National Vitaphone picture,
The Love Racket" for the screen. It
is now at the Earle Theater.
we are in the business of manufac-
turing entertainment" Goodrich de-
clared. And it is a business very
serious business. The successful writer
must sit in the audience, mentally, as
he writes. He cannot sit behind a desk
and write for some director or execu-
tive II he hopes to succeed. He must
write for the public"
THE Love Racket" was a successful
stage play under the title The Woman
on the jury" and on the screen version
adhereS closely to the stage version.
When adapt a play for the screen
know that the lines Of the play have
been proved before an audience-before
many audiences" Goodrich said. $50
treat those lines with respect. OF
course we have to alter the mechanics
Of picture because of the different
limitations of stage and screen. Then
there are added sequences to show on
the screen business that was only re-
ferred to by the actors on the stage"
Evening star., 1929-12-15

"Mr. Gillette's farewell to the stage
has aroused an interest for which many
years show no precedent" declared
George G. Tyler, who is associated with
A. L. Erlinger in the production.
Entire families, in some instances
representing three generations, filling
rows of seats from aisle to aisle, have
fiocked to the performances. One such
family gathering was that of the Lyman
Beecher Stoves of Hartford at the
Thanksgiving day matinees. Repre-
sentative Ruth Hanna Mccormick OF
Chicago wrote Mr. Gillette that the en-
tire Mccormick family. ranging from
to so years. was seeing the play
Charles Dana Gibson told Mr.. Gillette:
Some years ago I took my children to
see Joseph jefferson in RIP Van Win
kle" In the same spirit I now take
my grandchildren to see you in 'Sher-
lock Holmes"
Numbers of the playgoers of the
elder generations have remarked at the
box offlce that Mr.. Gillette had brought
them back to the theater for the first
time in years. The appeal of Sherlock
Holmes is even greater than was that
of .TrelaWny of the Wells in which
John Drew was on tour when he died.
Booth Harrington announced that
he would rather see Gillette play 'Sher-
lock Holmes than be child again on
Christmas morning. And SO the chill
dren are coming to see what 1t is all
about - and particularly to satisfy
themselves as to whether anything'S
wrong with Harrington"
