B T1IH OMAHA SUNDAY UEE: NOVEMBER 15, IPOS. I Gossip About PASSING OP TI!H FIHT MtillTKn Manager Atf ThrniwlTra to RUmr , trr thm Triw. NEW TORK. Nov. 14-Hitler recrimina tions have been heard fror.i only one of them. Hp hated to have" hi name disap pear alone; with the list kept In the mtn aser's office. That wan alwaya a species of patent of nobility that stamped him officially as a first nlghter. Enrolled there, he waa reconnlied as a real mem ber of that famous but now discredited body that witnesses the- first performance of plays. "That manager look my name off the list and abolished the, old crowd." said this rebel, "because he watched me at the first night of 'Diana of Dobson's,' when I had paid $12 for two tickets. How In the world did he expect any man to look cheerful under such circumstances?" Tor whatever reason, the managers have discovered that they prefer to submit their plays to the Judgment of the general pub lic and they have ceased to give the prefer, ence to the persons entered on the so called "first night list." The theater that first put this rule into effect has decided to tpst It at the first appearance of a very popular actress who has a large public dif ferent from that which usually gets Into the theater on the first night she acts. Her friends, being neither song publishers, bookmakers, stage dressmakers, wholesale ticket speculators or unemployed actors, have usually had to wait for the second or third night to see her. Now thoy will have an opportunity to stand In line and get seats In the order they reach the box office. Whether this rule will enable the theater t rid Itself of the old first night gang remains to be seen. "The managers are of course to blame for the character of the first night audi ences," one of them confessed the other dy, "because they got first Into the theater the men from whom .they were certain to get favorable expressions of opinion. These were largely men who were connected with them In business. That waa of course enough In Itself to rob these gatherings of any social character. Then their friends of the manager wanted their friends to come along too, and gradually they also were added. The result was a strange mixture, but It could be relied upon to re ceive whatever tho manager offered with unbounded enthusiasm. 80 long as the audience was docile and generous the man agers made no protest against Its social character, which had come to be such that the newspapers ceased to give the names of the persons who attended. The managers even let that pass because the first night audience of Its friends be haved as It was expected to." Whatever the performance might be during the last ten years the period In which the new and despised kind of first night came to Ha present estate the character of the audience waa the same. "The majority of these first nlghters began to look upon themselves seriously and tried to live up to their reputations as judge of the drama. It takes only one or two visits to the theater to turn every New Torker Into a dramatic critic. 80 what could be expected of these regu lars with the duty of their positions as first nlghters to uphold? They began to grow critical and then supercilious, and after awhile It waa all but Impossible to make them take the least pleasure In any but a positively sensational show. Their demeanor under average circumstances was not only enough to chill the actors, but It even had Its Influence on the dra matic critics. They were able to say truthfully that the audience received the play coldly. In the managerial mind the least It could do waa to laugh or cry or applaud with equal cordiality whether the play deserved It or not. These first nlghters created by the managers, how iver, had become too critical and too Important for any such mood and had utgrown their usefulness. 80 the man agers had no more use for them. They have now been cast Into outer darkness by the managers because they became too sophisticated to applaud the bad shows." Such la the conclusion of other man agers than the one quoted here. They are perfectly willing to acknowledge that the joke Is on them. They created this audience out of very obsequious elements. The general publlo had practically no opportunity to get Into any first night performance at one of the principal the ' at era. All the tickets went to the regu lars whose names were on the box office list. In sume cases Maude Adams or Maxlne Elliott or FrlUl Scheff would in sist upon having ten or twenty seats for friends. But that allotment was never sufficient to leaven the whole lump. The first night crowd remained practically the same, . There used always In the past to be certain well-known figures at first night perfonnancmes. General ' Sickles was one of them, for Instance, and In his period were John Bird, John Heckscher and later General Horace Porter. The most con spicuous men to go to the first nights of a later generation were the late Stanford White and his little coterie and, of course, the Irrepressible little lawyer who Is now living In Europe. Now there are positively o few persons who would be noticed among first nlghters that the rich woman from tlie west and her young Anglo-Amer ican husband are practically the mcfet characteristic attendanta at first perform ances. Of course, there Is the regular first night gang, but their names would sug gest nothing, as they are distinguished for no other peculiarity. THIRD AMERICAN DANCER WINS Rath St. Denis' llladn Dances Promise Barer. In l.oudon. LONDON. Nov. 14. (Special Correspond ence. Although London doesn't always appreciate American plays, Its Interest In American dancers seams to be Inexhaus tible. Its welcome to Ruth St. Denis on Thursday night was just as hearty as the welcome given to Maud Allan and to Isadora Duncan. The third to arrive In Ixnidon of this American trio, wlvj have made such a commotion abroad before be HAIR G09DS, WIGS AND COIFFURES We match any shade of hair under the , sun. We are headquarters for natural white hair.

F. M. SCHADELL ilSIS DOUGLAS STREET Plays, Players and ing well known at turn? except be hoar-i ay. has made a brare venture In taking at her own expense for seversi weeks one of tlie niot spacious and brant iful and least .sucressf ul theattrs In tendon. It Is too early yet to say whether she will manage to curry so heavy a load on her slender young shoulders, but If the en thusiasm of the first night audience at rh Bcala on Thursdny, and the dis criminating praise of the critics Is any criterion, she. Is going to win out. In spite of the fnct that her dances are rather more serlous-mlnded than any we have seen before. Ruth St. Denis' story has been much like that of Isadora Duncan. Bhe gave a few performances In America two years ago and won more critical attention than sheckrls. Then she tried It In Ixmdon with the same result. Then she went to Paris and suddenly found herself famous. Berlin, Vienna and the other continental capitals took her up, and made a tre mendous to do over her, and now after winding up her continental season In Wiesbaden last June, she Is getting her belated reward In England, and next spring she will probably try her luck In her native land. Mlas fit. Denis is a slim, lithe, thought ful girl who takes her art seriously, and has original Ideas. No pirouetting and -conventional flounclngs for her. "1 want," said she to the writer, "to express In terms of rhythm and gesture the real spirit of the Orient, and especially Oriental region. The Hindu dances I give now are only the beginning of what 1 want to do In the future In representing eastern religious Ideas, for It Is In the Orient that the dance Is recognised as one of the highest ex pressions of religious feeling. It Is neces sary for me to be, for the time, a devout Brahmin or I cannot do justice to such of my dances as are of a religious nature. "Although I have never been In India, I bave studied everything, and everybody, I could reach that would help me to get Into' touch with the Hindu spirit and I am told that I have succeeded. My friends have told me I had gone mad to take a big London theater when I could have made twenty times as much money as part of a vaudeville entertainment; but I can't express the sentiments I want to express except In the right surroundings, und If I go to New York I want to appear there In the same way, even If It is not so profit able. "Miss Allan and Miss Duncan chiefly convey musical Ideas In motion, and 1 try to convey another kind of Idea, but It la significant that in every case to reach what seems to be the highest ex pression of the art of dancing, one must always represent an abstract Idea, rather than represent some particular person." Maud Allan has been writing a book about her life and her Aanitng, and I am told that she has the real literary knack. Her 260th performance Is to be given at the Palace next 'Wednesday, and If the book comes from the printers In time, the occasion Is to be celebrated by distribu tion of a copy to everyone In the audlencf. This fair American has been getting, all sorts of big offers from home fur a sea son of dancing there, but London seems to show no disposition to let her go. She had been planning to make a tour of the provinces after her Palace season Is over; but It can be announced here that she is now definitely considering a particularly attractive offer she has received from America, and may go to New York sooner than she had expected. England heralds the advent of a new girl playwright, Miss Gertrude Robins. She has written a successful one-act comedy, "Makeshifts." She conceived the plot of this play when acting in "When Knights Were Bold" at Wyndham'a theater. Miss Robins has had a career sufficiently varied to satisfy even people In stageland. She began life as a poultry farmer In the Mid lands, from which she "incubated" her self using poultry farm terms Into an artist's model. This latter career did not suit her and she went to Oxford where she secured a triumph and took honors In modern languages. All this, mind you, while In her 'teens. The process of Incuba tion continuing, she achieved her first stage success with Wilson Barrett and won her way up to leading lady In what Is con sidered his finest drama, "Lucky Durham." On coming to London she appeared In legitimate drama and won considerable distinction at Hla Majesty's theater In A Winter's Tale." Miss Robins has now developed Into a full-fledged playwright. 8he has retired Into the country temporarily and la hard at work on a farm Incubating not poultry but more plays. JOHN AVA CARPENTER. Coining; Events. Since the genius ot Hugo wrought out the figure of Jean Valjean In the warp and wolf of human mystery, there have been faw g:eat male characters In fiction. Rostand's Cyrano is one. Charley Steele of Sir Oilbert Parker's greut story. "The Right of Way," la another dramatic version of this fine book by Eugene W. Presbrey, which will be presented at the Boyd by Klaw & Erlanger Friday and Saturday wtlh a matinee Saturday. "The Patriot" is the name of the new threo act farce In which Charles Frohman will present William Collier at the Boyd theater tonight, Monday and Tuesday with a matinee Tuesday afternoon. The appropriateness of the title will be readily appreciated when one sees the play comedy. As a title "The Patriot"1 Is not unusual. As a matter of fact it has been used on more than one occasion in this country and abroad. It was used for the first time In this country on June 11. 1794, when "The Patriot or Love In Camp" being the second part of "The Poor Soldier," a musical play was produced at the John S'reet theater In New York, when that famous play house, the second built as a home for the drama In this country, was under Fowl' VfcM Playhouses tie msnagemrnt of Messrs. Hnllam anil Henry. In the, company were Messrs. King, Ashton. Woolls, Itlrhards, Prlgmore. Bery msn, Hammond. Martin and Mesdames Wilson snd Pownsll. The" scenes of this opera, which was repeated at Intervals for many years after, were laid In Ireland. The new comedy by Messrs. Collier and Man ners resembles the earlier one oily In the title. "The Man ot the Hour," George Broad hurst's new play, will be seen here at the Boyd Wednesday and Thursday with Thursday matlmc. "The Man of tlie Hour" Is a timely play, full of dramatic Incidents, with plenty of comedy and telling a story of human interest. It deals with one of the most burning topics of the ray. The "grafting" of the political "machine" In many of the great cities of this country Is the central theme qf the story, the particular delineation being the passage through the city council of the town where the action of the play takes place of a bill giving a perpetual franchise to a street railway. "McFadden's Row of Flats" will be Uhe offering at the Krug theater today and tomorrow with the usual matinee to day. It deals with an exposition of life on the east side district of New York. It Is a farce comedy that has weathered many successful seasons, yet seems to be as po tent an attraction as when It was originally produced fourteen years ago. The new program to be offered by Lyman H. Howe at the Krug Tuesday and Wednesday Is composed of a series of the most vivid travel sketches. It is all the mre fascinating b.'ciuse It is unincumbered by mere description. In Naples you see the Neapolitan at home; on the streets, at the market, and at church. There are scenes of beauty shown on an automobile tour through Savoy, and Niagara In winter seems so real that one feels like reaching .up and touching the monster Icicles under the falls. There are very human scenes in India and Sicily, and a most startling series of a ten mile steeplechase In England. $ A story of the seamy side of New York City life Is what Is claimed for the latest melodrama from the pen of 8. A. Judson, "Bold Into Slavery." The stoy centers around two young people, a bank clerk and a beautiful but poor girl, who are devotedly attached to one another, but who are separated by scheming villains for most sordid of reasons. As most of the various Incidents are taken from life, the story of the play Is full of human interest and there Is little In the action of the four acts that Is not plausible. - The eight scenes are all laid in New York City and each shows well known localities. A. J. Spencer has made the production and It Is In keep ing with the previous ones with which his name has been associated elaborate and massive. With a strong company, Mr. Spencer will present "Sold Into Slavery" at the Krug theater fur three days start ing next Thursday night. There will be the usual matinee Saturday. "The Professor's Love Story," which will be the offering at the Burwood for the week starting this afternoon, is a comedy by J. M. Barrle, one of the cleverest of tho present day dramatists, whose "Peter Pan" and "The Little Minister" won for him fame and fortune in both America and England. The play is Just what the title Implies, the love story of an old pro fessor, but It is a story so unusual, and It Is told in such a delightful way, that It appeals to one In a far different way than does the average stage romance. The fa mous actor, E. 8. Wlllard,' always con sidered the play one of the strongest In his repertoire; in fact, he played It more times than any other comedy. The plot has to do with Prof. Goodwll'le, who Is an enthusiastic electrician, whose work lias hitherto so engrossed him that It has become his world; and, as a result, though only a middle aged man, he looks and has the habits of a man of 80 or 70, and lives alone with his maiden sister, Agnes, who Is his housekeeper and only companion. In tho first act we learn that the pro fessor has almost completed his greatest book, but that for some unaccountable reason, he Is unable to give his mind to the work. The professor, during the ab sence of his slater, had engaged a young woman sucretary, and unconsciously he has fallen deeply In love with hor, thus accounting for his Inability to finish his book. Never having been through the ex perience before, ho summons his old school mate. Dr. Coaens, to diagnose his case. The doctor Is baffled at first, but finally scents the truth. The rich fun which has thus far developed is continued, with the assistance of two or throe subplots during the three acts of this delightful comedy, which will be found to bo one of the most charming bills yet presented by the Bur wood company. Tho week will be dis tinctly Frank Bacon's, as the character of the quaint and lovable professor Is ono most admirably suited to Mr. Baoon's ouallflcatlons. Mr. Bacon appeared In this role several times In 8.an Francisco, and cons'ders It exceptionally becoming to him. There will be matinees today, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Ous Pixley will be over at the Orpheum for a week beginning matinee today. In Jesse L. Lasky's latest presentation, "The Seven Holmes." This piece Is a satire on American tramp life. Paul West wrote the book, while Charles Berton composed the original musical numbers. Tho act Is one which causes general merriment In the audience and Is designed principally for laughing purposes. Sime catchy songs and clever character acting, however, are given by the seven comedians. Seven types of tramps are represented in the piece. Mr. Pixley. well known ss a :ramp comedian, assumes the role of Weary Walker: Fim Dodv as Dago Dan. elnas the song hit. "My Bother Svlvest"; William C.
