, a dJatindt ' advance in picture realism.
The re-tft of the Invention is the third

f pictures not only height and breadth,
tut depth, or a true perspective jrep
t resenting objects precisely as they ap-
pear to jthe eye,
. ,. The first public showing- of the
nee .pictures was made at JJ Astor
theatre Jn New-York. Looking at the
; screen With the naked eye the pio
turee eeemed inordinately large, dupli
cated in I red and green and a Jumbled
mass. I?ut when the spectators placed
. before their eyes red and green trans
f pa renciek green for the right eye and
"jred lor jthe left, the reds and greens
were neutralised into an even tone,
the screen appeared to be brought
' within a few feet of the onlookers and
l the objects, animate and inanimate,
stand oit in correct perspective with
startling ltfelikeness.
In. projecting' r the pictures two
'lenses are placed "in the camera aa far

first appearance will be as Beethoven
in the Opera "Adelaide." It will be
the first of a series of "visualised
music," I presenting works of master
musicians on the screen. The theme
of great! compositions will be used In
the screen versions. The producers
will not use songs but will ' portray
the Ideas contained in the various
movements. .The Ideal is to convey
by pictures a clearer meaning of the
message the great composers wisaea
to give t the world through - their
works.

where she has been equally successful.
On June . 7 she made her debut as a
playwright When she had a play pro
duced by the Charles Emerson Cooke
stock company at Water bury, . Conn
with both Florence and Mary Nash in
the cast as a special favor to jMiss
Sears, who wrote the play for jtbem
over a year ago. Miss Sears played

Henry W. Savage. The lyrics are by

the adaptation of Percy Heath. J Mile.

STILL another of New York's famous
old amusement resorts has sung Its
swan song. This time It is the old
Eden Musee which baa stood, on the
corner of Twenty-third, street near
Sixth avenue and for inore , than SO
years has shown "The Wpnders of the
World In Wax. Whan . the Eden
Musee opened its doors on March S8,
188. tt was the latest idea in, amuse
ment from Paris and its innovation of
entertainment and its features were
the talk of the town. . In 188 it pro
duced a motion picture" . version of
the Passion Play that ran for : nine
months.;' Five million people-are said
to have -seen the wonders of the old
Musee and on Dewey Sundays alone, in
1S98, 10,000 people passed through its
turnstiles. Motion ' pictures and the
fact that New York's stores have de
serted Twenty-third street are two of
the contributing causes for the bank
ruptcy Into which the Institution has
fallen. "-. '

"D OSE COGHLAN 'will celebrate her
JX. gold.en Jubilee of stage life, next-
October in Boston when she plays
Mme. Wlnard in "Trilby - with ( the
all star cast. One of the features of
the celebration will be a duologue,' be
written, by Ephyllis Nellson-Terry as
a conversation between a young actress
and one who has made her name. Miss
Cogblan and Miss Nellson-Terry will
appear together. Miss Coghland was
bora In England but came to America
In 1872 and ba played almost con
tinuously In this country since 1877.
DIFFICULTIES -that have arisen
make it extremely uncertain as to
whether Granville Barker . will play
the anticipated important part in the
theatrical affairs of the United States
for netft season. ' It has been an
nounced that the band of art enthus
iasts associated in the late New Thea
tre were ; prepared to back the Eng
lish manager to any extent in order
to revive their pet scheme and that he
was to have a repertory theatre in
n Tork. Now it seems that the art
enthusiasts not only want.weir snare-j
of Mr. Barker's proceeds in w ium
bat also of bis road tours and as he
does not agree the combination is at
an end. - Mr. Barker and hla wife, Mlas
McCarthy, have sailed for England and
it is understood that Miss Mcvanny
will not return although Mr. Barker
is due next January. -.
