VOLUME 40 «NO, 17,288 AND THE GLAMOUR OF TITLE. ENATOR ELKINS makes a puh- lic announcement that “My daughter and the Duke of the Abruzzi are not engaged to be PRINCES married.” What if they are or what if they aren't? Why should the American public, especially the great American feminine public, excite or interest thems one way or the other? Every Elkins says something on this subject or does not say anything there ap- pears a portrait of a rather large, pleasing looking girl with an abundance of hair, a cheerful expression and pride in her teeth, which appear to be free from dentistry. A companion picture is 8 young man with a naval officer’s cap who does not look like an Italian, but rather resembles an Annapolis cadet who has trained too fine and is worrying over his coming examinations. Maybe these portraits are recognizable resemblances of the couple who “are not engaged to be married.” They would do almost as well for many another tall, good-looking American girl and for several hundred thin naval officers.

LY GLASER, who has long held an unchallenged position in our comie L a world, was born in Allegheny City, Pa., June 2, 1874.

Finally, when BOODOO0O of seventeen, much against the wishes of her parents, Miss Glaser came to New York and secured a position as a chorus girl in only a gtri Francis Wilson's company, making her stage debut at the Broadway Theatre, Dec. 1891, In “The Lion Tamer," at the same time being ted understudy to the leading | soubrette, Marie Jansen. The opporun for the young novice to distinguish herself was promptly forthcoming. For, on Feb. 15 ance behind 1892, just six weeks after her first appear- the footlights, Miss Glaser was suddenly thrust into Miss Jansen’s role and made a most favorable impression. She finished out this season tn the chorus, however, and was then selected by Mr. Wilson to succeed Miss Jan: permanently in his support The ¢ 93 Gi Appeared on tour as Angelina in “The Lion Tamer The Merry Monarch,” and the season following this she was J It was not until the fall of 189 that she created her first role nein “The Devil's De} at Abbey's (now Knickerbocker) T! ew York, and she was seen at the same theatre the next season as Rita tn “The Chieftain.” It was after this that Miss Glaser scored the hit of her career thus far, the season of 1896-97 Deing Plerrette in "Half a King.” a role with which she was {dentified for almost two years. In the spring of 1898 she figured in another “Erminte” revival at the Casino. She was next seen as Jacqueline in "The Little Corporal,” reappearing again at the Casino in Erminte’’ the spring of 1899, and divided the season fole lowing as Roxane in the operatic version of “Cyrano de Bergerac’ and in the perennial ** Miss Glaser then stepped into stardom, her career thus far having been praos tically unique in that it had been passed exclusively in Francis Wilson's sup port, nine years in all. She made her debut as a star at Albany, N. Y., Nov. 12 1900, In "Sweet Anne Page,” which fell into the discard after a thres months’ existence, and the following April she was Angela {n “The Prima Donna,’ at the Herald Square Theatre, New York, which lasted for thirty-six performances, But the fickle god of success was far better next season, and in "Dolly Varden" she starred triumphantly for three years. The season of 191-05 Mise Glaser was Mary Tudor tn “A Madcap Princess,” and the year following she was Dorothy Gay in “Miss Dolly Dollars.” Then came a season as Myrtle Webb in “The Aero Club,” a comedy without mustc, and she divided the season of 197-08 Lazull in votte in a revival an | between a@ short starring tour in “Lola from Berlin” and with Joseph Webers company as Fonia in ‘he Merry Widow" burlesque at the Lyric Theatre as the star in ‘Mile.
