H. Frazee can help it. Having installed “A Pair of Queens” in the Cort Theatre, Be is now oreparing to eend another domedy to the Princess in that city ‘The play, entitled, “Nothing But the Truth,” will open next Tuesday in Indianapolis and go to Chicago soon after. Louise Dresser is to have a featured role, She is singing at the New Brighton Theatre this week and was to have continued in vaudeville all summer. However, Mr. Frazee made her an attractive offer and she accepted. She has proved a big suc- cess in the two-a-day, but Miss Dresser’s ambitions Iie along the line of the legitimate stage. She was a Mainstay in both editions of “Potash | & Perlmutter.” It is our opinion! thet she is making excellent progress in the direction of stardom A& TO THE COX HOLDINGS. Joseph L. Rhinock has returned from Cincinnati, where he attended the | funeral of George i. Cox. Mr, Rhi- nock, who was closely associated with | the Cincinnati man in the handling of | his theatrical and picture interests, is| authority for the statement that the| death of Mr. Cox will in no way affect his amusement interests, Mr. Cox owned stock in some of the Shubert ventures, in the Loew corporations, in @ World Film Corporation and in the rty-fourth Street Theatre Company. He was also interested in theatres in the Middle West which are operated uncer U. B. O. auspices. CAN YOU IMAGINE? Loney Haskell was talking to a vaudeville actress on a Broadway cor-| when an Englishman! passed wearing a glass in one eye. “I believe I'll get a monocle,” Loney. “Don't do it,” said the actress. | “They're dangerous.” | “In what way?” “Oh, you'd get excited some time and ride the thing off a bridge or into a tree,” replied she.

SOTHERN HELPS WAR FUND. Sir Herbert Tree announced from | the stage of the New Amsterdam Theatre last night that he had re! ceived from E. H. Sothern a check for! $4,361, the money being the latter profits on his performances in “If 1} Were King” at the Shubert last week, The check will be given to the Eng- heh Actors’ War Emergency Fund, founded by Mr. Tree.
