SILVERSVARD WON’T TAKE HER HUSBAND BACK. Wife of Man Who Said He Did Housework Has Also Changed Her Will. Mrs, Elizabeth Silversvard of No. 1934 Wobster avenue, the Bronx, to-day tola an Evening World reporter that un- er no circumstances would she live any longer with John Fabian Sliversvard, fifty-two years old, whom she married Maroh 14 Jast, This is the outcome of a visit Silveravard recently paid to the Morrisanta Police Court when he said that his wife made him do housework and act as her coachman. “Phe little work Siiversvard atd about the house he did voluntary,” said Mrs. Silversvard. “As he had no steady o ployment, and I had no servant, and os I furnished the means for his food and clothitg, it was altogether proper for him to save my steps.” Neighbors declare that Mrs, Slivers- vard, who is suffering from paralysis, has done a great deal for her husband, and at one time planned to leave him ther savings. That he ghould have re- paid her by dragging her to court in her estate of illness they say speaxs very little for his gratitude, and they are not surprised to learn that she has locked him out of the house and changed her will, There 1s no apparent basis for the matement of Hilversvard made in court that his wife euffere from a bellef in evil epinits. Mrs. Silversvard has an excellent reputation in the Bronx, she fe @ member of Calvary Church and was confirmed by Bishop Greer, Her grandfather was Thomas Bruce, known as Lond Elgin, whose marbles are in he British Museum.

THAT SUGGESTS COM PORT WITHOUT: Seesa & WOMAN HATERS” BY CHARLES DARNTON. é ENOW I'm aubdjecting myself ¢ T to severe criticism, but I feel that the play justifies the means I have taken to get it before an intelligent audience.” George C. Tyler wasn't defending himself for the new ein he has com- mitted in the eyes of Broadway by announcing that the regular first- night crowd will not be able to buy its way into Wallack’s on Tuesday night. In fact, Mr. ,Tyler didn’t seem to care a coupon what auto- matic first-nighters might think or say of his attitude towards them. He has expressed the opinion, as perhaps you know, that the usual first-night audience, as a whole, isn’t good enough, mentally, to judge “The New Sin.” He therefore pur- Poges to assemble by invitation, “an aristocracy of understanding.” In| this will be included “1uumbers of; the press.” This may be because Mr, Tyler {3 a diplomatist—or a humor- ist. In all serlousnees, however, he ,{eatd: two or three managers, I don't think they care whether a production has Any artistic merit so long as tt sete the money. They have no personal Pride in thetr profession, no real feel- ing for the theatre. In faci, the theatre in New York, generally speaking, (s on a@ level with the Broadway populace that finds the entertdinment {t seeks in noisy cabaret shows. This syne Vulgar note 1s evidenced in theatrical manage- ment. There {s no pariicular joy or glory in bein a uh “Go back to the first-nights at Daly's, the Madison Square and the old Lyceum Theatres and contrast those audiences with the gatherings of the present time. A first-night audience ysed to bear the stamp of intelligence, But it no longer has any distinction, The same crowd goes to musical comedy, drama, farce, and tragedy in the same fra:ne of mind and with the same point of view. 1’ class of play isn't considered. The ‘reg- ulars’ turn owt simply because it's a first-night. They don't care whether they eve a dog show or a three-ring cireus. With them the play 1s elther a ‘hit’ or @ ‘failure.’ Curlously enough, they take a commercial view of a pro- duction. I've had any number of them y to me: ‘You'll make a barrel of ney out of this show.’ Now, why snould they care whether I was to make or to lose money? I've often wondered at their appapent lack of interest in the artistic quality of a perform: eo the only thing that concerns them, I claim it is a bard matter to get out a represeytative audience to see tho first performance of a play that calls for tn- telligent consideration. If there were @uch an audience in New York—an audience upon which managers coy depend—it couldn't cover more than third of the first-nights, with a theatre on every comer and new plays on al- most every signboard.” GET-THE-MONEY MANAGERS ARE Jess you can ordinary occasionally. on doing the conventional thing they must in time prove themselves to be a set of idiots. It is only fair <0 an author to give his play a fair trial. That is why I am trying to get a rep- resentative audience for the opening performance of ‘The New Sin.’ This ts not an innovation; it is merely an idea.” The idea of barring the ever eager firet-night crowd, however, ig not with- out its novel: To make it more in- terest! it has been advanced at a time when the ‘regulars’ are particu. larly anxious to be seen in all their glory. Thetr new clothes were made for first-nights. Any old thing is good enough for any old night. REGULAR FIRST-NIGHTER CARES ONLY TO BE SEEN, “The regular first-night care for nothing so much as to be seen,” declared Mr, Tyler. .“They are ready enough to applaud, but the really good Mnes of a play never touch them. They recognize only the obvious speeches, and all the OMT 406 sticks and 4, The iniel to of an audl- Keone r the first performance of a play 19 seventy-five per cent, higher BLAMED. “Then the situaston ts largely due to the managerg themselves?"
