THE DRAMA

IDA HAMILTON
At the Little Theatre,
FLASHES FROM '"STARS''
The present revival of Clyde Fitch's play,
"The Truth," with Grnco George In tho leading
role, at tho Adelphl Theatre, Is the first of the
distinguished dramatist's plays to be given
since his death at ciinlons-sur-Marne, France,
In 1300. As It was maintained that all of
Fitch's plays were written with n soit of jour
nalistic cyo for tho news of tho day, and were,
therefore, ephemeral, many were curious to seo
how "Tho Truth" would stand tho test of tlmo
seven years nftcr the original production with
Clnra Bloodirood. The production made by
Wlnthrop Ames, In New York last Easter, was
a complete vindication of Fitch.
Many reminiscences relative to Mr. Fitch's
brilliant career nro being related. An old-time
admirer of Mr. Fitch declared the othrr day
that tho secret of his thorough success wns his
penchant for taking ndvico from any ono
whoso Idea yeomed good. "Ho respected tho
counsel of a janitor as welt as that of a states
man. Ho was always willing to give any Idea
a trial without trusting absolutely to his own
judgment. His motto seemed to bo to let tho
people decide. Tho result was success."
"The Yellow Ticket" will como to the Oar
rlck Theatre, beginning Tuesday evening, Octo
ber 13. Tho reason for opening on Tuesday
evening is that the original company, headed
by Florence Roed, Edwin Arden, Sydney Booth,
Edward Maw son, Daid Torrence, Macey Jlnj'
Ian and Mnud Leslie, will Jump from Chicago
after tho Sunday night porformnnco on October
11, and come direct to the Oarrlck. "Tho Yel
low Ticket" deals with tho adventures of a poor
Jewish girl In St. Petorsburg.
Fanny Ward, that sparkling and popular
comedienne, will appear at tho Broad Street
Theatre In the piquant farco from the French.
"Madam President," the week of October 0.
Miss Ward made a triumphant success as Co
bette, the leading woman of "The Pet of tho
Harem" company. Tho base of most farces is
mistaken identity, and "Madam President" 1

actcrs arrives on the sceno, he or she is Imme
