They are beginning to beleve that | there “ain’t mo such piece” as “Chante- |clair.” Promised for three years or more, it was to have been given defin- | itely on Coguelin’s return to Paris after his South American trip, but though the actor got back several months ago, the much anticipated first night seems as far off as ever. Probably M. Rostand feels that his long delayed bird-drama requires still more “polishing.” In the interim, how- ever, he and Coquelin have bad an ex- ceptional chance to discuss the details of its production, for the actor, whe has not been especially well lately, has been passing the past fertnight as M. Rostand’s guest at Cambo in the enees. Moreover, the distinguished in have been installed in the much discussed country mansion which has been building for the dramatist for over a year, and on which he recently | declared he had lavished his last sou. | Coquelin is ne writer, but on his holiday in the Pyrennes he has been accompanied by Henry Bauer, who used | to be one of the most influential of French dramatic eritics, and from him | we at last have something like a de- | | tailed deseription of the mansion whose | | fittings, according to Rostand, have eaten up every eent of the money that he made out of “L’Aiglon.” That this mansion would be unique in its way there was not much aues- | tion, and from what Bauer tells us about it, it undoubtedly deserves his enthusiastic description as “a poet’s | | dream come true.” Rostand has named | his new home “Amaga,” which means, | lin the Basque dialect, “The Castle of Hearts,” and one of his happiest fan- cies In connection with it is that each of his friends has a room arranged for | him with hkis name on the door and | portrtait and appropriate inscriptions on the walls inside. ALMOST PURE MOORISH. I In structure the mansion is almest pure Moorish, with huge reception, ! | drawing and dining-rooms set around a courtyard. ©On the walls of the rooms | are decorative panels by Henri Martin, | Jean Vebers and other painters of the | | first rank, while fountains play at the | | bottom of a grand staircase, and here | and there along the corridors. Outside, | the pergola, or veranda, is covered with | vines, on one side is an orangery, and | on another against a mass of shrub- bery are statues of Rostand’s three | | great masters—Shakespeare, Cervantes | and Victor Hugo. Moreover the man- | sion commands a magnifieent view, for it is built on a height, In° what M, Bauer calls “a gorgeous amphitheater of | mountains.” | So, after all, perhaps the real reason | that “Chanteclair” is not preduced is | that Rostand is too busy getling set- tled in his new home to come back to | Paris and take cliarge of a production. | Evidently it is not Coquelin's slight in- | aisposition whicH is making the delay, | for besides being almost well the actor, | has arranged to make his reappearance in the capital in a new piece by Alfred Capus, who wrote “The Two Schools.” ! JULIET PUT TO MUSIC. In London unusual interest is helng | taken In the promised musical ‘comedy | version of “Romeo and Jullet,” in which | | Edna May is going to make her reap- pearance here. It is being written by | | Captain Basil Hood and Leslie Stewart, and they have got on so fast that the | | first performance of the piece 1s now . | scheduled for the end of March. 'No | name has yet been chosen for the | piece. The first act represents a charity ba- zaar where the “opposing houses”’ of | Montague and Capulet, or rather their modern representatives, eontrol stalls. It is here that the lovers first meet and the second act takes us to the house of “Juliet's” father—a Mayfair man- sion whose interior is expected to fur- | nish a stage pleture equal to that of { the young Duke's house in “The Catch |of the Season.” Captain Hood, by the way, seems to be very much “in it" at present, for | besides writing this “book™ for Charles Frohman, he is engaged in adapting the two French masical plays which George Edwardes intends to give at Daly's after Messager's popular “Lit- { tle Michus” has reached the end of its tether. MECHANICAL CLAQUE. In Vienna the phid “claque” is about to be superseded. As most Americans know, the claque of European threaters consists of certain individuals whom the management pays to applaud, and ordinarily one would be glad to see them displaced cn any terms. But in Vienna .the new order of things is worse than the old, for there a theatri- cal manager has invented 2 mechanical claque! Run by machinery it consists of a number of leathér bags filled with air, which when struck one against an- other produce the same effect as hand- clapping. Hereafter, accordingly, when audien- ces at this theater prove unapprecia- tive, it will be necessary only to press 2 button and there will be “rounds of applause.” Whether the people on the stage will be stimulated by such ma- chine-made plaudits is questionable, | but probably the effect on patrons will be the same. and at all events the manager will save money by dispensing wi*h bis human claque. ——————— Handwriting in Politics.
