He has been very fond of Shakespearean roles, and has long wanted to appesr in a revival, but until this _time no proper opportunity presented jtself. Years ago O'Neill pla, Mercutio to the Juliet of Adelaide Neilson, and he has often expressed the desire to take up that part again. When, at the cloge of the New York engagement on last Saturday night, Miss Eleanor Robson broke down to such a degree that her physiclan or- dered a complete rest for several days, word_was at once given to all the other members of the company that the tour would be suspended, but not for more than three or four days. The only member of the cast to take exception to this was Eben Plympton, who promptly hied him- self to Sliver Lake, in Massachusetts, and sent word to Liebler & Co. that he did not approve of their conduct. He added that when they had anything further to say to him th would find him at his summer resort, but no further communication will take place between him and that firm George C. Tyler, manager for Liebler & sald lympton’s action amounts to sheer ingratitude. For four years he has been drawing a fat salary from us, and we have put up with a good deal of his nonsense simply for the sake of peace. He had a fat part in ‘In the Palace of the King,' and ‘after the long engagement in this city it was booked for five woeks of one-night stands. Plympton at once de- clared that he would not go on the road under such_conditions, and withdrew from the cast. Last spring he was with Miss Viola Allen in “The Hunchback,’ and the day after the season ended at the Gar- rick Mizs Allen wanted some scene pic- tures taken, and asked Plympton to come to the theater and pose. He would not, saying ‘My contract closed I evening, and I will_ not appear again. When Plympton's ‘present refusal was recelved O'Nefll was {n Manager Tyler's office, and, in expressing his sympathy, referred again to the old days when he played Mercutio himself. Tyler proposed that O'Nelll should take the part now, but he declared that he didn’'t remember 'the lines in the first place, and that, anyhow, he meant to sail for Furope next week. Tyler coaxed, and O'Neill told him to send the part to his hotel. An hour later O'Nefll called up company pan and as sonably General Temperature is beginning t ifest his presence in these p #0on as he gets his affairs into r good working order he expects to be joined by Relative Humidity, and then iUs to the woods. Pending the co-operation of this pair of worthies, who make “the good old summer time’ a deadly ieality for folks | @uring July and August, the people are taking their ample fill of the amusement turnished by the Ferris Sunimer Stock com- | pany. The Bee has heretofore expressed its opinfon as to the capability of this com pany, and sees no reason to recede in any | way. Its work has been of a uniformly | high grade and worthy to rank with much more pretentious orgunizations. It has been most liberally patronized, and the people have generally felt well satisfled that the time spent at the Boyd tneater since the summer season began has not been wasted During the last week the wutdoor resorts have shared to a greater extent In the favor of the public. but they have hardly gotten themselves established at the bat as yet. When the days begin to sizzle and the nights seem superheated, then .the parks will do the business.

Jobart Chatfield Chatfield-Taylor has en- tored the ranks of dramatic authors, a play of his, “The Idle Born," having been produced in Chicago by the students of a dramatic school. Reginald De Koven as- sisted at the production. What the Chi- cago papers sald about it leads one to think that Mr. Chatfleld-Taylor will do better on | the goif links. In regard to a report which published widely during the past ek concerning Francis Wilson's retirement a Parks remind one of chorus girls—just why it fsn't really necessary to state—and this ‘calls to mind the fact that a very declded change has come over managerial methods during the last year or two. It 18 a distinct advance, too. One of the ob- Jects of the manager, not the least, either. 18 to attract people to his theater. He Is willing to adopt almost any legitimate ex- pedient to do this. And just now he is baiting with lovely femininity. t year The Bee called attention to the banishment of the tights and the substitution of choruses dressed in attractive street or house gowns, and commented at the time on the decided improvement of the innova- tion. And now the correctly gowned chorus girl finds her charms accentuated by the radiantly beautiful “show girl.” What 18 a “show girl?" Just that aud nothing more. She is hired to show, to look pretty, to make the “picture,” and when she has done that her usefulness to the plece is fulfilled. It fs not at all essential that the show girl be a singer. She Is merely on the stage to look swell, charming, chie, dashing or whatever her particular line may be. Off the stage she Is a perambulating adver- tisement.

There is no play avail- able for the veteran actor, and he is more than snxious to try his hand at Shake- gpeare If the proper arrangements can be made. Tyler will spend but five weeks an the other side, being forced to return here by August 1, when rehearsals for his seven new productions will begin.

She must dress well, and must be a ‘“good fellow,” of course, within the limits of propriety. Above everything else, she must be talked about, for if she isn't, she Is of no use to the manager. One of her trials is to stand for whatever the press agent in his wisdom chooses to publish concerning her. Miss So- and-8o s in her dressing room, when a tap is heard at the door. Tt is the press agent of the show, and he says: ‘“‘Miss So- and-Bo, I have given out a story of how your divorced husband has been making you trouble, wrecking your flat and the like.

It may be that Miss So-and-80's divorceéd husband' 18 a particularly sore spot with her, or it may be that she has no husband at all. That makes no difference. She must eon over that press agent's fake and have it by heart so she can corroborate it In every detall when the reporters call on her the next day. This {s only one of her trials. But she has her compensation. Part of it comes In the envelope at the end of the week, usually amounting to something In the nelghborhood of $30. The chorus girl gets around $15. But the chorus girl Is not going to be displaced by the show girl, and it 1s only a question of ttme until some other means of attracting attention will be discovered, and then the show girl will §0 to Join the other junk In the managerial limbo for discards. This fs the season of the year for the press agent. He is just now at work as he never has worked before, and every mail that comes brings to the dramatic editor's desk a bunch of letters detailing the plans arranged for next season. Most of this Informatfon concerns the minor Btars, or persons who have mever starred, and Is therefore of little or no benefit to anyone save the Individual seforred to. It 18 recognized by the managers that they must have newspaper nssistance or they cannot -succeed, and to.this end they adopt every known device to secure attention for their stars during the time between the closing ‘of one season and the operiing of the next. Of course this is a legitimate move on the part of the managers, for they are entitled to all the free advertising they ean gét, and no one gets more free adver- tising than the aetor, not even the' base ball player. The conscientlous newspaper s often put to In Its efforts to dls- eriminate between the deserving and the undeserving, though, and not infrequently, both are made to suffer together.

No matter what the call for seats is this week “Graustark" will only Tun until Wednesday evening, as Mr. Ferris will then have to return to his Min- neapolis theater. “Graustark” will be fol- lowed by the modern soclety drama of 'Wite for Wife.” The dresses to be worn in “Graustark’ ‘by Miss Grace Hayward will this season be more elaborate and beautiful. than any she ever wore in this city, and she is noted for the beautiful gowns I which she appears on the stage. In the first act Miss Hayward will appear In a beautiful’ Pirislan automobile gown; In the second act a handsome house dress will be worn, and in the throne scene in the third act she will appear in one of the most magnificent and elaborate empire BOwns ever scen on the Boyd stage.
