The fact that Daly, according to his own confession, never saw his more or less illustrious predecessor in the part is of no importance. It suited the purpose of Mansfield to make the dandy a strong personality. Daly makes him nothing more than @ clever fop—and in my opinion Daly is right, After all, Beau Brummell is merely @ cycophant who trades upon the namo of the Prince of Wales when he flatters himself that he i# setting the fashion, and in the end, when bod debts and worse luck overtake him, hopes for nothing better than a re-| conciliation with his royal friend of |happler years. His professed love for Mariana, daughter of the rich, vulgar merchant, means so little that We can scarcely regard him as a eelf-sacrificing hero, For all woe know, Clydo Fitch, in writing tho Play, may have ecen further possl- bilities in “David Garrick,” with pen- timent taking a pathetic turn, But “Beau Brummell," like “David Garricl remains a decidedly good “acting” play, It gives an actor overy opportunity to endear himself to his @udience, since it enables him te bo both picturcaque and sentimental, Here you have a supposedly handsome hero, of exquisite sensibility, strutting from the Mall to poverty, with the sweet maiden of his fancy left in the background of conventional matri- mony. Clyde Fitch wrote hie first play with a sympathetic pen. More- over, he gave to it a charm of ex- pression that has not been equalled by any American since his time. It turns graceful phrases that are only to rare these days. The old “aside” and “soliloquy” have been frecly ‘adapted by Stanley Dark, with the re- sult that the play betrays few signs of old-fashioned construction. Mr. Daly, of course, has done more intelligent work than this portrayal of Brummell. But he acted the part admirably, except when he gave the wrong emphasis to the question, “Who is your fat friend?” after Brummell had been snubbed by the Prince of Wales. Mansfield made this interrogation the most telling The New York City elephone Directory GOES TO PRESS THURSDAY, MAY rith, 1916 Advertising Forms Close Tuesday, May 2d, 1916 Why not advertise in “the most used and most useful book in New York?" «Everybody looks in the telephone books.” Any of our business offices listed below will be end to give you full information about Telephone Service or Telephone Directory Advertising.

Fall with the “Maids of Amerioa” this week © the Columbia Theatre are a team who will not be soon forgotten, The “Maids” have for their offering a two act burlesque, “The Girl From Star land,” which is made amusing by the fact that the girl knows nothing of the ways of the mortal world, and Bar-|{ clay and Hall, on noting the won- drous beauty of the girl from Star- land endeavor to cure her ingenuous- ness and in their attempts to do so many laughable situations arise. Between the act# a vaudeville pro- gramme of three numbers Is rendered —Kaki Kaki and Poots Taka in a burlesque Hawaiian entertainment now so popular; Norton and Nobis with their “Variety Frolic,” and the ‘Temple Quartet. Al Hall and the chorus score with an automobile sons. In the company besides Barclay and Hall are Harry Lang, Just bred ericks, Mae Mack, Joe Ward, Barney Norton, Elsa Bostel, Ruth Noble and a large chorus of girls. ——— FARNUM SHOWS TALENT IN “MAN OF SORROW” AT ACADEMY OF MUSIC. Wilttam Farnum in William Fox's “A Man of Sorrow” is the offering at the Academy of Music for the first part of this week. The story is one of unusual strength and gives the principal every latitude for the exer- cise of his exceptional talents. ‘Tho picture depicts tho life of Jack Hewlett, who has been reformed from habitual drunkenness, and who is in love with Nance Lendon (Dorothy Bernard). Nance was deserted by her father, who marries again and then deserts his second wife and baby. Nance falls into the hands of Simon Leazard, an unscrupulous man, while Jess, the other baby, is taken care of by @ band of gypsies. The two children grow up ignorant of one an- other. After a life of ups and downs the wicked father’s estate ts given to Nance and as in all good movies the ‘arnum—claims her as hia bride. ———_ “BLUE RIBBON BELLES” ARE BURLESQUE WINNERS AT OLYMPIC THEATRE. | ‘The Blue Ribbon Belles Company in @ two-act burlesque entitled “At Panama” and the “Wishing Stone” ‘was the attraction presented at the Olympic Theatre on Fourteenth Street last night. The production, including several vaudeville acts, was among the best that bas appeared there this season. Lee Hickman is seen in the leading funmaking part and he had no trou- ble in amusing the large audience. Miss Ruby Grey, the prima donna, was stunning In gorgeous gowns, and her singing numbers were well ren- dered. Others in the cast » Charles Dougias, Corinne De Forst, Rosg| Hoey, J.
