IN THE DRAMA?
FewTragic Plays in Season's
Output Indicate Growing
Popularity of Lighter
Amusements.
Of ten now plays produced in New York
during the month of August the majority
were light, some ovancscently HrIiL In
their calibre of entertainment. This Is
true also of the plays stajred durlnj; Sep
tember, ns well as those promised later
In the "enson. Where farce comedy does
not prevail, the action hinges generally
on sensational situations, the characters
Including an array of politicians, grafter
and policemen, and the scenes being laid
In Brooklyn Hats, where neglected wives
bicker with tippling stepmothers, court
rooms and localities of such topical ap
peal. What has become of the old-fashioned
serious drama, wherein the stage is shak
en by the tumultuous soul upheavals of
the great emotional artiste, and the set
tings trembled In the gusts of passion
emanating from the agitated bosom of the
Etark-faced tragedian! Who does not
remember the joy we had In sharing In
JIIss Olga Nethorsole's elephantine dis
tresses: Hut alas Camllle tilth no more,
Sappho weeps no salty tears, nor are we
plcasurably harrowed by the turbulences
of another Mrs. Taniiueray.
"A few years ago we heard more or
less of Ibsen. Strindbnrg. Hatiptmann and
Maeterlinck in our playhouses," says the
Dramatic Mirror, commenting on the
lack of solid drama. "Madame Slmone
came over and produced a play of Ros
tand. Mr. Frohman put on 'Chantecler.'
Mr. Oland tried out Strindberg's 'Father.'
Forbes-Robertson, Mr. Faversham and
-others were playing in dramas of Shake
speare. "The popularity of plays dealing with
criminals and grafters, court scenes ami
pollre functionaries, and. next to these,
plays with a strong farcical tendency, Is
not highly promising for 'the serious
drama.'
"Miss Margaret Anglln may and so
may Mr. I lackett produce a Shake
spearean play: but with those exceptions
we fail to dosery anything like solid lit
erary phenomena on the theatrical hori
zon." It Is true "The Revolt," which will con
tinue here next week, deals serlouly with
the problem of a husband's neelect of
his wife, but it is leavened with an admix
ture of laugh-provoking humor. Of the
new attractions to open next week, "Pi
late's Daughter" is the only serious play,
and that Is religious. Margaret Angiin.
finding Shakepoare financially unprofit
able, will appear in Wilde's amusing sa
tire, "Lady Windermere's Fan." at the
Broad. "Nearly Married," with Bruce
(McRae, deals farcically with marriage
and divorce. Montgomery and Stone, In
their fantasy, "Chin Chin." will be fol
lowed by other mentally titillating musi
cal amusements among them "The Pass
ing Show of 1911" and "Tho Whirl of the
World." Even Mrs. Flske, famous creator
of Ibsen tpcs. will appear in a new com
edy "Lady Betty Martingale, or The Ad
ventures of a Lively Hussy," by John
Luther Long and Frank Stayton.
While there will be serious dramas, and
solemn dramas, there Is no prospect of

Why Miss Angiin
Left Mr. Mans
Miss Margaret Anglln, who will appear
In Oscar Wilde's satiric drama, "Lady
Wlndemere's Fan," at the Broad Street
Theatre Monday night, made her debut
under Richard Mansfield In Edmond Ros
tand's "Cyrano de Bergerac. ' Miss Ang
lln was a distinguished success In the
part of Roxane a success all the more
marked by her abrupt and unexplained
disappearance from the cast. Miss Ang
lin's success was Indeed almost as great
as that of Mr. Mansfield himself. When,
therefore, after the company had started
on tour and Miss Anglln vanished, many
and various were the suppositions as to
why the charming original Roxane had
cone.
Only a short time ago was the mys
tery solved In the discovery of a letter
written bv Mansfield to a Chicago news
Taper It Is characteristic of the great
actor, and reads thus:
"Virginia Hotel, Chicago, Oct. 9. 1002.
"My attention has been called to the
continual reference to Miss Anglln and
the usual innuendoes ns to why she sev
ered her connection with my company.
Miss Anglln played Roxane In 'Cyrano
de Bergerac' very charmingly, and im
mediately after her marked success in
the role" received an offer of twice the
sum I had contracted to pay for her ser
vices. Miss Angiin accepted the offer.
"I am sorry that the facts arc so sim
ple nnd uninteresting really almost sor
did, but 'tis true. It would have been
more exciting, and no doubt more agree
able, to have been able to relate how
I the poor creature was taken by the hair
I and dragged about the stage, or how
I she was, after a stormy rehearsal, kid
napped and confined in a dark room,
where the monster squirted Ink at her
through the keyhole punctually every 15
minutes, or how she was sandwiched be
tween two boards like the lady In Tol-
stol's rustic tragedy while the beast sat
upon her and read his prayer book, and
then how she escaped, but ever after
refused to reveal the mystery of her suf
ferings for fear of the vengeance of the
' blood-thirsty tyrant!
' Miss Anglln will be supported by

Catherine Ainsley, Louise Gllmore, Helen

A NEW CHARACTER IN DRAMA
In "Nearly Married," Edgar Selwyn's
farce comedy, which comes to the Garrick
Monday night for a week's run, Cohap
& Harris, the producers, assert they In
troduce a character new to Action and
the drama. It Is the "professional co
respondent." "The character Is taken from life and
Is nlmost, if not quite, coniincd to New
York," declares Edith Campbell Walker,
who will portray the part
"As in Edgar Selwyn's farce, these girls
are secretly engaged by married couples,
seeking an Immediate divorce. They are.
girls of good character and only pretend
to lllrt with their client, the married man
who hires them. ,
"Mr. Selwyn hns caught the humor of
this sham, nnd at the same time has
created a type never brought out here
tofore, either In the drama or in fiction.
Mr. McRae will be supported in "Near
ly Married" by the original company ap
pearing at the Gaiety Theatre In New
York last season. They Include An
toinette Walker. In the role of Betty
Llndsav; Edith Campbell Walker. Alice
S Elliot, Beatrice Ingram, John Sparks
John Butler. Delmar E. Clark, Danny
