FLASHES FROM "STARS"
Michael Morton, author of "Tho Yellow
Ticket," which will bo the nttrnctlon at tho
Garrlck Thcare commencing Tuesday evening,
October 13, Is a playwright of international
fame. Among his best-knownyorks nre
"Resurrection," In which Blanche Walsh
stnrrcd with great success for several seasons,
and which was written In collaboration with
Henri Bataille; "My Wife" and "The Run
away," adaptations from the Freneh, made by
Mr. Morton for Miss Billle BurkW "A Rich
Man's Son," In which W. H. Crane, the come
uian, starred successfully, and "Colonel New
come," a dramatization from Thackeray's novel,
"The Newcomes," which was written originally
for Sul Smith Russell, but In which that come
dian was not seen, owing to the fact that his
health broke down nt that time. The manu
script was found In the possession of Sol Smith
Russell at the time of his death and was after
ward used by Willard, the English aotor, for a
season. It has never been eeen In New York,
and It is possible that Sir Herbert Beerbohm
Tree will revise the play shortly for production
In America, appearing himself In the role of
Colonel Newcome. Michael Morton is a brother
of Mrs. Martha Morton Cronhelm, who Is well
known as nn American playwright.
Stanley Dark, who will play Lord Darling
ton, has been the leading man with Margaret
Anglln in several productions, notably In "Tho
Awakening of Helena Ritchie," "Green Stock
ings" and in one or two special New York
revivals In which Miss Anglln was the stellar
player.
Charles Conway, an English entertainer, has
arrived In New York and will moke his first
appearance before an American audience. Mr.
Conway, who has been beforo tho British
public for the last 17 years, proposes to make
his American debut in a scries of Dickenslan
Impersonations.
Letters received from England confirm the
fact that Robert Lorraine, the actor, has al
ready distinguished himself as a member of the
English military flying corps. Mr. Lorraine
was one of the first Englishmen to go In for
aviation, and four or five years ago he made
several sensational tllghts. AVhen ho became
engaged to Miss Marie Lohr, however, that
young actress Insisted that he should soar no
more; hut oa their engagement wns subse
quently broken off, and Miss Lohr became the
wife of some one else, Mr. Lorraine evidently
considered hlmeelf Justified in returning to his
earlier love, the aeroplane.
Frederick William Wile tells the following
