Breaking the Last
Dramatic Commandment
There ar night's like Monday when
the ttetre of Philadelphia display ft
udder solicitude for the health of the
dramatic editor, and, Instead of demand
Irr hi presence at from three to Ave
ew productions simultaneously, they
j, ".uppiy noimng at an to arag mm out
.Mnto.tho wet. Perhaps It Isn't fitting to
rfclurjl thanks by talking about the contents-of
a Broadway theatre, but here
roes.
The theatre In question Is the new
Candler. Its contents Is n play that sue
Ceeds and succeeds tremendously by de
fying- the prime law of dramaturgy. Or,
tit any rate, "On Trial" defies what even
the most Iconoclastic hnvo lonir admitted
to be safe from their hammers tho dic
tum that on the stage, as nowhero else
in literature, the writer's audience must
bo "In on the know." It has been taken
fdr granted that one of tho most popular
tricks of Action Is Impossible on tho
stage. The audlonre can't be allowed to
KO on suspecting Sir Cluy of unspeakable
vllalny It ho Is to marry Ethel In the
nd. It must eeo and understand every
.step of the story, as well as know the
true character of every person In tho
play. The detective story, with "Well,
Watson " and Its explanatory appendix
Is simply Impisslblo.
Butt now a young gentleman of 21 or
thereabouts, Klnvir Rclzcnstcln, with an
education In law Instead of dramaturgy,
has turned up with a play which violates
that last relic of critical dogmatism, vio
lates It beyond the shadow of a doubt
and succeeds by that violation and by
nothing else.
It Is manifestly not tho story but the
methods of Its telling that makes the
play. For tho story Is tho commonest
balderdash of melodrama. A girl Is de
ceived In her youth by a married man,
who promises a wedding he can't fulfil,
She marrios another, and many years
later her husband becomes a friend of
the man and even falls under financial
obligations to him. Tho man forces the
wife to come to him at his country place
under threat of "baring the past" to the
husband, and with tho promise of security
thereafter. Tho husband learns of his
wife's rendezvous,' but no more, and
shoots the man. Clrcumstnnces point to
robbery as Well as murder. But tho
husband Is acquitted under that law
which we have npver had courage to
Write, though plenty' to execute when
'i tho -man's secretary la shown to be the
S thief.
Such a bare and obviously melodrama
tic outline is galvanized Into real Inter
est by the curious expedient of telling
it backwards, like any detective story.
We start by seeing the beginning of the
trial and the statement of what the pros
ecution Intends to prove. We can only
suspect the husband of guilt. Then, when
the first witness is called, the testimony
is enacted as an Interlude, showing us
what actually occurred. We see the
murder committed. Another bit of court
procedure brings up a witness whose
story,, likewise acted put In the past,
shows ua how the husband learns the
fact that his wife has visited the man,
and how he leaves, half-crazed and re
volver In hand, to seek him out. A third
scene In court Introduces the wife's tes
timony, which, again acted out, shows
Us the scene of her betrayal many years
earlier.. Then a legal summing up, a de
bate of the Jurors over a moot point,
the tricking of the dead man's secretary
into an admission of thefr after the mur
der, and acquittal.,
Save for the final clearing of the hus
band in court, the whole Interest of the
play centres In clearing him In the minds
of the audience. You await eagerly each
lifting of the veil of the past, each addi
tion to your knowledge of who these peo
ple are and what the truth Is. The Inter
est in this business of turning time back
ward in Its flight Is so Intense that It
more than balances the fact that each
scene of revelation enacted Is progress
ively less dramatic In substance than Its
predecessor.
Placing the best built, most violent and
climacteric episodes first, and yet pro
ceeding on to greater and greater in
tensity of Interest, "On Trial" smashes a
-..Breat many other supposed rules of play-
wrltlng cesiae tne one aDouc letting tne
audience Into the secret. The obvious
moral seems to be that Granville Barker
hnew what he wan talking about when he
said that a play was anything which
could be made dramatically Interesting
In fXe theatre-
PAULINE FREDERICK
Coming to the Garrick in "Innocent"
tho land of romance, Marlon LtttlcMcld
nnd her company of Florentine singers
won hearty approval In echoes of grand
opera and songs of today.
Stuart Barnes told of tho troubles of
married men and those In love and the
audience agreed with him. If laughs count
for anything. Flanagan and Edwards
won new adherents with their skit on
stage life. Muller and Lyles presented a
misunderstanding of English, followed by
a dancing boxing match, which enlivened
tho general proceedings. Others who
pleased were Balgonghl, a midget, who
rode a mammoth horse: Charlotta Ravens-
croft, tho elnglng vlollnlstc, and Plplfax
and Paulo In a novel acrobatic comedy.
Deserving of special mention Is the
Pothe News Weekly, which Includes up-to-thc-minuto
toplcB which aro especially
of vital Interest at this time.

"Damaged Goods" at tho Walnut
A good many theatrlcaluflseacres made
some bucl prophecies ox-e'Brloux's "Dam
aged Goods" when taUf arose of produc
ing it In America. The first discovery
was that tho plajvns moral, furiously
moral and salutar Tho second was that
catalogue of tho con-
mlsculty became intense
ly dramatic by reason of Its human Im
portance as well as Brleux's art. The
third wns its popularity, based on tho
first two. The first year "Damaged
Goods" did woll In New York; the second.
It did better on the road; and the third
find It making such successful return
engagements to the popular-priced houses
as brought it to the Walnut last night
for the Becond time In four months.
The performance last night was prac
tically the same as that earlier In tho
season, unusually well balanced and ef
fective as such third-year productions go.
Howard Han still takes the honors of
tne evening with his strong, even Im
personation of the doctor.
Miss OrmI Hawley, of tho Lubln com
pnny, has lost one of her most slncero
admirers, and thereby hangs a touching
tale. More than a year ago Miss Haw
ley received a letter from an ll-ycar-old
boy In a Western city. Ho told her he
had no father or mother, that he sold
nowspopers for a living, and said she
made him very happy by "looking out
of a movlo and smiling at him." In a
boyish way he told her that he wished
she was his mother because she was so
beautiful, and asked her If she would
pleneo write him a letter and send him
one of her pictures.
Miss Hawlcy was so Impressed that sho
wrote the letter and sent the picture.
From then on the Lubln star and tho
nowsboy corresponded regularly. Ho
wrote nil his little problems to her and
she became a sort of foster mother to
him. Two months ago the letters stopped
coming from tho West nnd Miss Hnwley
was unable to learn what had happened
to her little friend, Then came a letter
fiom the head surgeon of a large hos
pital In the city whero the boy lived.
Here Is It!
Dear Miss Hawlcy Wo have a small
homeless newsboy hero who has had
both legs amputated as a result of
having been run over by a motor
truck. He Is a game llttlo chap, but
he Is very much worried because ho
cannot go to the "movies" again and
seo you. Ho Is unablo to write and
has asked me If I will please ask you
to Write to him hero and to cut your
pictures out of tho "movlo magazines"
and send them to him so that ho can
have them pinned on the screen by
his bed.
Miss Hawley Immediately telegraphed
tho bov and asked the surgeon to sparo
no money In making her llttlo friend
comfortable. She also sent him all the
"movlo books" and fairy stories sho could
get hold of and sent him still pictures of
herself in nlmost every photoplay sho
had acted In.
A week later Miss Hawley received
word from tho surgeon that tho boy was
dead.
"He was wonderfully brave for such a
little chappy," tho surgeon wrote, "and
he nsked me If he died to return all your
pictures to you, to give you his Jack
knife, which I am mailing under separate
cover, and to tell you to please always
keep smiling tho way you did at him In
the pictures.

serving of special mention.
Winsome Baby Helen, the miniature

into an Instantaneous hit. She Is one of

A Fairly Good Excuse
Maurice Costello, the director-star of
the Vltagraph Players, has a valet, a
colored boy named Raleigh Martin Tut
lilll, who, up to a short time ago, was
a model personal attendant. It had been
tho habit of Mr. Costello to use his valet
In pictures when he wanted a colored
boy to play a "bit," and to this fact Is
attributed the downfall of Raleigh. Ho
now considers himself a full-fledged mov
ing-picture star, and all because he ap
peared In several scenes In the same pic
ture. Shortly after tho release of tho
picture In question, Mr. Costello noticed
a decided change In his valet, who
showed every sign of having contracted
a swelled head.
"Look out you don't scrape your head
when going through tho door," admon
ished Mr. Costello when sending him on
an errand.
"Now, Mr. Costello," replied Raleigh,
"If you had received aa many mash
notes after your first big picture as I
did, you would have been fussed up,
too."
Movie Eye Strain
Writing to a New York paper, a reader
calls attention to what he believes to be
a menace to eyesight, caused by In
dulgence In photoplays:
"Tho enormous Increase In the num
ber of glasses being worn and In the num
ber of optometrists now practicing can
probably be attributed more directly to
tho movlng-plcture shows than to any
other cause.
"The constant flcker taxes the focusing
muscles (ciliary); the marvelous photo
graphic plato (retina) In the bock ot tho
eye has to telegraph messages to the
brain far more frequently than usual; and
last, but by no means least. Is the effect
of the white glaze of the screen. As the
optometrist well knows, thU light Is espe
cially rich In the short ultra-violet rays,
which arc the most active and Intense and
consequently most Irritating.
"Every person who frequents the movies
should visit an optometrist and purchase
a pair of largo amber lenses, preferably
In spectacles. I prefer an amber tint, as
It filters the light better than smoked
or blue. As this suggestion will not be
followed by every one, I hereby suggest
that the movies be shown In yellow only
where white was used before. A law to
this effect should be enacted.
Should you move Into a now house
vory soon, do not bo startled if, In the
middle of the night, you hear cries of
"Hands up," "Money or your life," It
Is possible, too, that you may hear a
moan or a weird sound as you put tho
window down, but do not loso your
nerve even If there Is no sign of danger.
Just bear In mind that the sashwelghts
In your window have a past; that tho
metal which compose them probably came
from tho revolver of a murderer, a bur
glar, a yeggman or even a suicide.
It Is Just possible that some ono of tho
weapons which played a conspicuous part
In some gruesome tragedy will not be
able to shake off the memories of the
past, even when converted Into another
form, and, as in Poe's tale of "Tho Fall
of tho House of Usher," may utter weird
cries throughout tho night.
This all may happen as a result of tho
action which was taken by the Police
Department today, when more than 300
revolvers and other weapons, used by
murderers, highwaymen, burglars and sui
cides, were transformed Into sashwelghts
nt tho Philadelphia Sashwelght Foundry,
22d and Dauphin streets.
The smelting of tho weapons was
supervised by Walter Gilbert, chief clerk
of tho Police Department. Somo of tho
revolvers which passed out of e.xlstenco
wore the means of sending their owners
to tho gallows, others brought long terms
In Jail to their operators, and somo sent
to eternity tho Innocent victims of crimi
nals, whose success depended on fighting
on unfair grounds.
Among the lot, too, thero wero several
revolvers around which are woven tales
of love and broken hearts. If ono of the
weapons could speak, It would tell how,
on one Christmas Eve, a young mother,
after decorating tho tree, went to tho
door to greet a sick brother, who camo
to spend the holiday and was shot down
on the threshold by a Jealous and drlnk
prazed husband, who mistook tho brother
for his wife's admirer. Another could
tell the story of two lovers who killed
themselves on tho day named for their
wedding because careless tongues revived
a scandal.
The real object of the police In destroy
ing the weapons Is to bo sure they never
ugain wjii oe usca ior criminal purposes.
WHAT'S DOING TONIGHT
SHI ALSO SHISH! HERE'S,
A HORRIBLE CRIME STORY
Midnight Chimes Shaky Music When
Policeman Eliids Putty Baby in Tub.
Policeman Mcrrlman's name belles his
disposition, nt least for tho present. The
bluecoat, who Is attached to tho 61st and
Thompson streets station, has Just un
raveled a "baby murder mystery," and
In consequence ho Is disgusted, disgruntled
and disillusioned.
A telephone- call to House Sergeant
Abrams from a ren) estate agent at 54th
street nnd Glrard avenuo resulted In
Mcrrlman being sent out In hasto. Tho
real estato agent told a talo of a dead
baby being discovered In ' a bathtub In
a vacant house at C531 Harmer street by
two persons Inspecting the place with
a view to renting It
Tho mystlo hour of midnight wan strik
ing as Merrlman, r-r-rovolver In hand,
cr-rcpt stealthily Into the house. Tho
bluecoat flashod his electric pocket light
Into tho dark corners of tho dwelling; with
bated breath and unabated determination,
he made his way up the stairway. Ho
thrust tho slender finger of his light into
ono of tho rooms. It circled about and
lighted upon a round object resembling
tho head of a child that protruded from
a bathtub.
Pocketing tho light, Merrlman picked
up tho tub and all and hustled back to tho
station house. It was almost as bright
as day In tho big rollroom. All the
members of tho night squad gathered
around Merrlman. That's why he's
peeved.
Tho bathtub had a ball of putty In It
and a pair of red stockings.

By ANNA PAVLOWA
ARTICLE VII.
The Pavlowana Is tho first of tho new
social dances which I originated Inst sum
mer. Haying In mind tho creation of
dances which would tend to mako moro
completo tho entire soclnt danco fabric,
I designed each danco to fill a specific
purpose
I cannot say that any of theso dances
of mine Is superior' to tho others, but !
do feel Hint, combined, they will bo' found
to oxert a useful Influence In the realm
of society dancing and to bo gratefully
welcomed by both dancers and dancing
spectators.
In beginning with tho Pavlowana, which
I shall descrlbo In six articles, I wish to
say that It Is performed In two-four tlmo
and Ib of Spanish character. Though
demanding many "open" positions, It Is
not difficult because It partakes of tho
so-called "fancy" elemonts.
Consisting of flvo figures, which we may
roughly divide Into three, sections, tha
Pavlowana begins with tho dancers In an
open position. The various steps require,
first, a forward walk sldo by side, the
Inside hands clasped. Then follows a so
rlcs of backward steps, first In "open,"
then In partially "closod" positions, and
after this a formal salutation, perrormea
by the lady as well as tho cavalier.
Progressing, tho partners now execute
a "walk-around" figure, with arms on
hips, and oommenqo tho fifth flguro with
a turn by tho lady under her own and
her cavalier's arms. From this to tho
next step, which Is a "half walk-around,"
In n. fllmnte and effective development.
and with Its completion tho partners are
prepared to resumo tho first step, starting
the danco anew.
The Btart of the Pavlowana Is mado by
tho lady, with hor loft foot, and tho cava
ler with his right- Standing In full "open"
position, side by side, the lady on her
cavalier's right, they clasp hands' and
move forward In three stately steps, tho
first about 12 Inches In length, trio, others
of about 6 to 8 Inches each. As the steps
continue tho dancers bring their clasped
hands forward, gradually raising the arms
to a point abovo their heads and beforo
them.
Tho count of "one," "two," "three,"
"four," Is proper to use, oven though tho
muslo Is two-four time. And It proceeds
In this fashion:
Count 1 Lady: Long step forward on
left foot. Cavalier: Same as count 2,
forward on right foot, with dip.
Count 2 Lady: Shorter .step on right
foot. Cavalier: Shorter step on left foot.
Count 8 Lady: Same as count 2, on
left foot. Cavalier; Same as count 2,
on right foot.
Count 4 Lady: Full pause. Cavalier:
Full pause.
Gradually straighten up on tho last
three counts, raising arm.
-Tho salutation, whlch.comes at the con.,
elusion of this, first figure. Is really a
part .of It, because It serves .as an adorn
ment. It progresses Into a salutation, In
which tho dancers face half toward each
