Maude Adams has added to her fame by posing for a gold statue, in which she typifies the ideal American girl. The value of metal in the casting is said to be $1: 000. The statue will be shown at the Paris exhibition and afterward exhibited through- out this country. The fig is girlish and very pretty, and is clothed @ suit the taste of the Dluest stockinged bachelor maid of Boston.

The only theatrical event of importance in New York this week was the indictment of Olga Nethersole for playing japho.”” William Gillette Introduces a novel sys- tem of curtain raising In his play, “‘Sher- lock Holmes.” Just before the act is to begin the entire house is plunged into abso- lute darkness. When the electric glow is flashed on again, the curtain is up, the actors are in their place and the play pro- ceeds. This new order of things is said to please the audience mightily. What appears to be a truthful story ts told by Sylvia Lynden, late leading lady of a Boston theater stock company. It is to the effect that while going through one of the scenes of the play presented a bunch of violets was tossed to her by an old lady, and upon examination it was discovered that a check calling for $5,000 was attached thereto. Miss Lynden immediately resigned her position and returned to New York with her friend, the donor of the check. This story is almost the limit as regards strange stage experiences. SS A Cold Snap.
