Premiere Dnnseuse at 16
For a number of years petite Mnrllynn Miller,
who will appear In "The Passing Show of 1911"
at thc Lyric Theatre next week, w.is unable to
dance In New York because of the lgilance of
the Gerry Society.
The Gerry Society, ns you may know, does
not encourage "child prodigies" on the stage.
Now Marllynn, said to be one of the most mar
velous of dancers, was a child prodigy, a real
"infant phenomenon," nfter the standard set by
Charles Dickens,
Marllynn was 10 the first day of September.
She danced when she was 4.
Miss Miller never appeared in New Yoik be
fore List June, when she made an extraordinary
hit at the Winter Garden.
Marllynn made her debut with her father,
mother nnd sister nt the Lakesido Park, Day
ton. Ohio, on August 20, 1M. Ono afternoon,
while the .Millers were playing In Dayton, little
Marllynn Miller, then 4 years old, was taken
to a moving picture show. One of tlio pictures
was of a famous premiere ilnnseu.se. Marllynn,
on arriving linnio, told hfi mother that she
thought Mm could dance on her toej ad well ns
the lady she had yeen In thp pictures. To tho
surprise of Cnro Miller and his wife their llttlo
daughter was veiy s,oon dancing around the
room on her toes.
So it was thnt little Marllynn became one of
the Columbians, which after that wiek were
billed os "The Columbian Trio, with Mademoi
selle Sugarlump." The name "Madomolscllo
Sugarlump" was after a tlmo dropped from the
"billing," and the Miller family becamo known
as thc "Columbian Four" father, mother and
two daughters. Owing to tho child labor net.
"Tho Columbian Four" was unable to appear In
many or the larger cities, slnco Marllynn Miller
was so young. As there aio no restrictions as
to age In other countries, the .Millers played

Mr. .longs' successes, "Tho Silver King," has
been successfully plajed In London by H. B.
Irving at the Strand.
Bruco McRae. who Is sturred In "Nearly
Married," has bud a varied, vigorous career.
Mr. McRae was bom in India. Ills father
was a civil engineer In tho British military
service. At the ngo of 16 he wanted to adopt
a stago uiticer, but the probability of quick
