Miss Marie Horne. the blonde Pleasure, with "Experience" at the Metropolitan Opera House, claims, however, that she has an Infallible method of determining whether any play for which she has been cast will be a success or a failure and on the opening night. Miss Horne in speaking of this matter recently, said; "The way I can determine whether a play will be o success or a failure is by my own feelings during the progress of that play. I am not swayed at all by my own part, for while I am very ner vous while playing a role for the first time, this does not enter Into the test I speak of. Just as soon as I find I long for a good cry during the action of -the play, then I know that that play, whether It bo comedy or drama, will be a success; but if I should remain dry- ' eyed until the end of the show, theri I know that failure awaits the show, no matter who the author I3 or Show big a production it may bo, "I have experimented with this a num ber ot times and my predictions baaed on this test have always been true. Sev- eral times when I stated that a play would be a failure, papers the next dfcy praised the production, but it only took a few weeks for It to languish and die, and In several other instances the play has been a success when I cried at the first performance, although all the wise prophets claimed that It would be a dls. mal fallure." ' Warfleld as John Hancock David Warfleld refused an offer of 11,000.000 to appear In the movies, but In behalf of the recent Liberty Loan qualified his repeated declaration about never appearing In the "silent drama" by allowing himself to be filmed by the Famous, Players Company. They were "still" pictures and were shown through out the country In aid ot the loan. Mr. Warfleld appeared as John Hancock 'at the signing of the Declaration of Inde pendence.
