M. A. Midnight matinee to help usher in the new year, so as usual at this season big plan's are on foot for the arrangement of the 'best ever" pro gram. The Orpheum, Empress and Pantages theatres have been secured; and the box offices of all the theatres are now selling exchange tickets which may be turned in at Huntley's drug store on December 28, to procure re served seats for whichever theatre it is desired to attend. The details of the program are in the possession of William T. Pangle, who steadfastly refuses to disclose them at this time. It is certain, however, that in addition to the many ; vaudeville acts there will be an offering by the Baker Players and something from the Heilig.i The Theatrical !

The two managers have not been associated for 20 j years, since they gave "The Girl I Left Be hind Me" at tha Empire theatre, Jan uary 25, 1893. Mr. Belasco is busy selecting the play, which will be a re vival of one of their former success es, while Mr. Frohman is selecting the stars, of whom there will be at least a half dozen. The production will be made in March and after four weeks in New York will play brief engagements in the larger cities. The supper was one which Belasco gave in his studio after Mr. Frohman had been his guest for a performance of The Phantom Rival."

Sheldon, author; O. P. In reviewing "The Garden 'of Para-1 dise,' the latest and probably the last of the Lieblers' great spectacle pro ductions, the Dramatic Mifror says in part: I "All that the Llebler company has ever done In the way of beautiful stage pictures Is here surpassed in splendor and beauty. No fairyland spectacle nor historic pageant ever staged at the Metropolitan opera house , has surpassed if it has ever equalled this splendid production. We sit entranced at the vision of the sub marine wonders of the first scene," tha Palace of the Merman Emperor. Fancy looking through a curtain of trembling waters at a palace under the' sea' with mermaids and huge fish swimming gracefully about and disporting them selves gleefully among the dark cav erns of the ocean." i . u "The Garden' of Paradise" has been dramatized by Edward . Sheldon Ifrom Hans Christian Anderson's fairytale of "The Little Mermaid." The staging is the work of O. P. Heggie and the stage pictures with their rich imagery are the work of the master artist, Joseph t'rban. Emily Stevens, whose mother, Emma Maddern, was a -sister of . Mrs. Fiiske's mother. Elizabeth Maddern, who is also an actress, and Mary Mad dern, who has played with. Mrs. Fiske for many years, is Swanhlld, the mer maid. Miss Stevens received her first stage training In Mrs. Fiske's j com panies after she left St. Mary's hall school, Burlington, N. J. v War Is Blamed for ' Failures of Plays Pespite fact Broadway Walls Over ' Poor Patronage Managers Befus to Beduce Price of Seats. New York. Dec. 1&. Why do plays fall? The question: is pertinent in view of the present season. Many answers have been given. The war is being blamed, that cause usually being bracketed with the so called economic crisis in this country today. "The people i do not have the money to spend," is the common wail on Broadway. Yet the box office men are Just as haughty to. their prospect ive customers as they have been in the most prosperous seasons. The prices are at top-notch and a manage! will "paper" his house and - continue a long "dead-head" list at the same time that he charges $2 for an ob scure balcony seat. I One manager, whose grey matter lias always Jeen rated as being smaller than a canary bird's, gave vent toa long, profound interview in which he declared his sol emn conviction that prices should be Increased to $3 for an orchestra seat. The motion picture: houses come next in the list of causes for the theatrical lean year. That theirs is much truth in that statement none can deny but it must not be forgotten that most of the picture fans are f ecruii irom the ranks of those who ) otherwise would not go inside a theatre. . Many of the managers have quit land their houses are dark or given up to the half -darkness of moving pictures. They were the managers who, instead of produc ing the plays which- they thought worth While ' (giving j them credit "for knowing a real . play ' when it is of fered by the playwright), went ahead and showed plays with only a tem porary appeal. ; The one fact remains; - that If the managers ever hope to see a return to the prosperous conditions of a few years ago they will have to change their estimate of the public Intelli gence. The public today does not be lieve press-agent yarns nor advertis ing with the gullibility of yore. With the endless making of books describ ing the stage and dramatic conditions, the theatre-goer very often has a bet ter.idea of the value of the play than the manager has and it is the theatre goer who buys the tickets. So that j loud and j dismal moaning along Broadway these nights is caused by the anguished suffering of a score of theatrical managers. . They fisured that the public wanted to have some thing light for its theatrical menu tils SUPREME SPECTACLE Bottom, lert to ngnt laawara Heggie, stage producer "In a recent Interview as to being a mermaid Miss Stevens declared that she had not and never would get used' to acting on wires. "We had nine weeks of rehearsal," she said, "and although there never was a hitch in the mechanical end of the production, I have never managed to keep from being terrified when they pull me off my feet.' j IXa the first act,- when wet are all mermaids or fish, we are off the stage all the time. Some of the other girls are used to it now, and don't 'mind It a bit, but to me it is like looking off the top cf a high tower. "Most every one has that feeling, I think, land I'll never feel any other way. There is no' fear that the wires on which I am suspended will break, for I know they won't, and I can't tell you just what it is that I am afraid of , but I am afraid of something. Tho only thing to do is to look up or else close my eyes. I play the whole scenes that way, never once looking down at the stage or out at the audience. In the dim light, which is used parti j to get the effect of the people being under the sea and partly to hide the wires on which we are hung, the audience can't see our eyes at alL j . "The ease with which I can! use my arms when I'm floating around In the air is remarkable, and I can do all sorts of things in the way of gestures which would be perfectly absurd if I were standing on my feet." . season- some souffle and light frothy stuff in order to forget the wr.

Victor Herbert's starring vehicle for Hazel Dawn. It's a cello solo from the stage. Ttie second-act discloses a studio In a Paris (why is it that all comic operas having anything to ao with Paris always have either a stu dio or the interior of Maxim's as one scene?) with 'a group of Bohemians. artists and, r chorus ladies, clus tered about a 'cellist. : With ouly the faintest sort, of a humming obligato the 'cellist plays one of Herbert's en- 1 trancing waits melodies, "The Lorelei." ! It is very effective. A few moments later the same melody recurs when Hazel Dawn herself plays It on the violin. i The score of "The Debutante" con tains; the most gorgeous orchestration Victor Herbert has produced since The Fortune Teller." There are only a few . "whlstly pieces in the play. but the melting harmonies of violins. 'cellos, harps and clarionets ! blended in the accompaniments make even pro saic "tunes' seem heavenly. "The Lor elei" waltz is reminiscent of If I Were on the Stage," the success in Herbert's "Mademoiselle Modiste." but it has even a more dreamy measure. Probably in the present age of "can tering" to waltzes it won't beopme pop ular In. the "cafe dansants." The perennial Harry B. Smith wrote the lyrics and the less said about them the better. They Just manage to carry the piece through and that's all. The music is the whole thing. Hazel Dawn is a charming star, bearing her r.ew honors modestly. She will be re- memoered ror "The Pink Lady," and "The Little Cafe." "The Debutante" replaces "The Girl from Utah" at tha Knickerbocker theatre.

It is ex pected that this will develop into the establishment of a Toy theatre in New York, which will cater especially, if not exclusively to the entertainment of the younger members of the play going fraternity. The plans have been drawn for the edifice, which will be unique In con struction, and will afford the same opportunity for children to see spec tacle, plays and miscellaneous enter tainment as now offered adults. Mr. Newton, who is a disciple of magic, will feature this form in an original setting in the principal entertain ments.

About January 1. Oliver Morosco will have in operation what should prove a boon to playwrights the lar gest play reading bureau in the United fc'tates. The reading staff, their names to be made public later, has been engaged and the members are le. t-lared to be people of literary ability and experience, including some of the best known play readers in the country. The department will be established in Los Angeles and will be prepared to handle manuscripts from all parts of the world, the only condition being that Mr. Morosco have an option on the plays while they are in bis pos session. Plays will be accepted, or returned with expert criticism, ac cording to schedule. Three weeks will be allowed for the reading of manu scripts from the eastern coast. In case they are rejected. Plays from the middle west will be returned in two weeks and Los Angeles works will be handled within a week. "For years." said Mr. Morosco in Entrance "Exams" v May Prove Little Brown University Conducts Voval "ex periment With Ten Men Who Failed to Fan Initial Tests. Providenr, R. I., Dec 19. The fact that young men who fail to pass entrance examinations at colleges are able to do college work well has been proven at Brown university in a novel experiment. A year ago last September 10 young men who were 1 unab! for various reason the entrance requirements to fulfill were ad mitted as an ' experiment. The fac ulty desired to learn whether or not the ability of a man to pass entrance requirements was a true test of his ability as a student. According to the report of .. Dean Randall, nine of the 10 men proved to be unusually good students and en tirely worthy of the opportunity which was opened to them. The re sult of the test is bound to bring about a more liberal treatment of col leges toward applicants for admission, and a wide study of educational cap abilities will eventually supersede the old-fashioned tests for entrants.
