N AND OUT OF THE THEATRES BY CHARLES DARNTON. ‘her fine work in “Mixed. Mar- Plage,” not to mention othey things prey) ‘has done, Miss Sara Allgood py Te hereelf the quedn of the Gttgh Players. As Mrs. /Rainey, the ‘wise Od woman of the people uttering @e etme philosophy that is yet so pro- found an expression of Iife, this actress (Makes the present pegformance at Max- ine BVintt’s Theatre an artistic treat. Arthuf “Ginclair is equally lifelike ao the bigoted husband who, enraged upon finding that his son te determined to marry @ Catholic girl, withdraws the influence he had exerted ti Between Catholic and Prot meh in a bitter strike. The riot that fofliews is aid at his door, which, in fact, is bombarded with sticks and @enes, But he holds Nora responsible, Decmuse she has refused to give up @ther nis eon or her religion, and when the @trl efeps outsite and ts killed by « @rey shot he etili mumbles obstinately, “I know I was right.” Much more wonderfully drawn, how- \\qver, and far more human is the old ‘Ue. In her the author, St. John @. Nine, has created @ real character. % Mrs. Rainey says about men and Work 4 and happiness and religion and Nfe in general must be heard to be ap- prectated, and above all heard from the lips of Miss Allgood, who plays this bomely peacemaker with poignant sim- Ololty. Experience has taught the patient old woman that men must be treated as children, and she turns aside @very harsh argument with a soft word, usually one that is mellow with humor. All differences, religious or otherwise, Mean very little to her. “There's some people #o different from each other that they never find it out.” Her husband hears this, but Jt 1s lost upon him. He doesn't realize that she has devoted her life to the thankless job of taking care of him. He sees her constantly at Work, only to reflect “It's a queer, easy time women have damning socks. It's a pastime for you.” ‘The violent ending of the play would seem less forced if the old man instead of the girl were shot. But this is a small matter compared with the broad aman quality and the natural humor of “Mixed Marriage.” And when all's weld and done it must be confessed that Miss Cathleen Nesbitt, who playa Nora charmingly, may in every sense be con- Mdered » beautiful sacrifice, eee ie ITH the spotlight beating fiercely ‘upon her, Mme. Mella Mars, al- ‘most as short as her song-stories and with her Diack hair dashing down from one side to meet a raised eye- brow, stands out as a rather curious figure at the Winter Garden. If this interesting little woman from Vienna weoms less at home than the adaptable ip the big house at Fiftieth street, at any rate demonstrates that she 1@ an artist along the lines made famil- far here a long time ago by Yvette Gullbert, Her husband, Bela Laszky, who has set to music the poems that make up the brief programme, sits at the plano almost like @ graven image, but Mme. Mars 1s thoroughly alive to the dramatic possibilities of the differ- ent numbers, one of which Is in Ger- man. Both in face and voice she !s capable of a wide range of expression. But in spite of the novelty of her per- formance it 1s seriously to be doubted whether the Winter Garden is the proper place for her. o 8 Az WATTLE German may be a dan- gerous thing in other places than the Winter Garden, as this note from Charles Nirdlinger, author of “The First Lady in the Land,” goes to show: “Please ica me tell you that Dolly does not tell the Dutch Minister's wife that he looks out of sight. What Dolly says is that her gown 1s auagezeichend, I see, of course, how in- @stinct utterance might confuse the hearer, But won't you kindly free me of the charge of using twentieth century slang in an eighteenth century play?” With all due apology, I'm tempted to ask Mr, Nirdiinger why he does not say nineteenth century play"? Jefferson, as he must know, was President from 19h to 1809, eee NABLE himself to attend the New U York performance of a well- known farce which was doubtful, Charles Frohman a season or so o sent three well known theatrical mana- gers to Its performance with the requ that each visit him separately aft ward with a verdict upon the entet taining qualities of the play, Said jt manager: “It's the funniest farce I'v ever seen, I n laughed so much in. my Mfe." “What !s it all about?’ asked Mr, Frohman, was the answer, “it's just a farce, but it's @wiully funny.” Said the second manager: “It's a scream. I nearly fell “Then tell me some- asked Mr, Frohman, T can't do that, but it's a ‘Well, you know," “Oh, well, very funny farce.” Said the third man- ager: “I ache from laughing. Really, I nearly died.” ‘What made you lavgh?” eaid Mr. Frohman, “Oh, it's so fanny, you know,” was the only an- ewer, “I don't know, I just laughed.” “All right; here you all are," concluded Me. Frohman, “This is what I think, It fen’t a good farce because not one of you can tell me why I should see it. It's only the play that causes Jaugh- ter outside the theatre as well as in that can hope to attract a steady pa- tromage, tan't it? I have hed more farces that everybody laughed at and nobody knew what they were about— ‘and that consequently falled—than any dozen other managers. The fact that yop cannot tell me what made you Jaugh amply means that the play has no tdea—only a string of incongruous ‘pituations.” The play perished in less thaa @ month, (oi A EE May Name Princess Cristina, MADRID, Dec. 13,—The daughter of Queen Victoria born carly yesterday probably will be named Cristina, ‘The Queen Monday night attended a banquet King Alfonso gave in honor of Cardinals Maria Cos y Machio and Enriquez Aimaraz y Santos, admitted to the Sa- cre@ College at the recent Conastory in Pe inn gp an - e rT A Harold Bauer Gives a Fine Piano Recital ai aatos English Artist Excels Himself in Schumann, Liszt and Chopin Com- positions— Afterward Takes Part in Concert of Kneisel Quartet.

There was a brilliant and crowded audience in the ballroom of the Hotel Astor last night at the second concert by the Knelsel Quartet. A new sound- ing board that had been installed seemed to ald materially in the conveyance to the audience of the effectiveness of the little master-band of musicians. Th Programme, while commanding respect, Dut novstrain upon perception or under- | standing and was altogether charming. It began with Mozart's delightful quar- tet in C major, continued with Saint- | Saens’s sonata in C minor for plano | and 10, op. 8% and ended with | Brahms's quintet in F minor, op. 3. Harold Bauer, the English pianist, Who was the assisting artist, and Will- em Willeke, the ‘cellist of the organiza- tion, gave beautiful expression to the Saint-Saens sonata, and Mr, Bauer in| the Brahms quintet showed himself as | good an ensemble player as he is a solo- ist. As for Mr, Knelsel and his three associates, efficient as they always are, they have rarely played with such brill- iancy. It would seem that the bright- ness of the new auditorium, succeeding the dark and @omnolent Mendelssohn ‘Hall, had put new life into them, poh LE EE Felice Lyne Scores Again, LONDON, Dec. 13.—Fellce Lyne scored another triumph at Hammerstein's Opera House last night when she ap- peared in “Lucia di Lammermoor,” Her voice enraptured the audience, and after the mad scene the ole house rose to torlum, and in the evening he was the, The stage had to be eave. i i T ACTORS’ FUND MEETING.
