THE theatrical cnleutlar Is almost
static so far ns nctt week is con
cerned. Lew Fields, lu the dunl per
tonality of a Worth by dny aud a ery
amateur Leithnrlo ly night In "A
Lonely Homco," at the Lvric, will re
turn to musical comedy nfter two sea
sons lu the "lesit" in "Friendly Kne
mies." The only other nheer novelty,
"Yes or No," represents) u piece of en
terprise on the part ot Frank Fielder
and Mne Desmond, who head the jHipii
lar Orpheum Block, ns it is n lhrlit
comedy that is brand new lo l'hiladel
phla. The only other chance of bill will
be at tho Walnut, to -nlitrh William
Lawrence, the residuary legatee ot
Denmnn Thompson, will return in "The
Old Homebtend" by n "popular re
quest" that is both popular and re
quested in n more Renulue reuse than
the usual press-aRentiuK of the phrase
Several of the voutluuing attractions
which Jiave been received with favor
will cuter on final weeks. The photo
play houses will make up generously for
the lack of strictly theatrical uinpltj.
THE tentacles of prohibition arc clos
ing tliemselies around these Fulled
States.
In this dire etremit there arises
John Cope, of the 'Daddies" coinpan ,
to speculate on the effect of proliibiton
legislation upon the well-known Amer
ican drauin, comedies in paiticular.
The most humorous scene of u comedy
frequently depends upon licence, liquor
as well ns dramatic, and this threatened
wiping out of the farceur's mainstay
Mr. Cope was inclined to iev with
alarm.
"AVhnt," ho queried of the play
goer over n beverage of which only the
straws were genuine, "is going to happen
to our farces after it has become a penal
offense to dispense booze, 'on or off?'
With alcohol about to surrender its
place in the social or sociable historv
of the country, what are the farce
writers going to do for a substitute?
"Still the situation is not entirely
hopeless. If we can't have fun with
the chap wlio has got his liquor we can
have a little sport with the man who is
trying to gel it und can't. And think
of the possibilities of the man who
smokes himself blue in the face.
"It is, in other words, the weaknesses
of mankind that provide mot of the
farce situations. We've inherited that
from the French, though as a real mat-ter,-of-nct
yon can trace the same
tendency of farce nil tho way back to
the Latins."
GEORGE M. COHAN'S first pro
duction as an independent producer
will be an American play from his own
pen. The initial performance will take
place early in January, Mr. Cohan an
nounces that all future Cohan produc
tions and Cohnnized plas will be pre
sented under his personal management
and supervision.
PROMINENT in the cast supporting
Grant Mitchell in "A Prince There
Was," George M. Cohan's character
comedy, now at the Gurrick, is that
alwavs dependable and painstaking ar
tist, Ernest Stallnrd. who coutiibules
a delightful visualization of the vener
able valet. He first won distinction em
the American stage in support of E. S.
"Willard, with whom lie toured for
jears, appearing in every offering of
that celebrated English artist. He was
also associated with Charles Frohmau's
attractions for many seasons, notablv
In support of the late Kyrle Bellow. A
few years ago Mr. Stallard created the
title role in "Preserving Mr. Panmuro,"
In which he created an emphatic per
sonal success in spite of the fact that
the play itself was doom eel to failure.
In Boston, New York and Philadelphia
Mr. Stallnrd's effective werk as "Pan
mure" won him high rank as u charac
ter artist.
MT WAS working up north in n Hud-J-
son bay trnding station wiien I
Tvas a kid," conlieled William Law
rence, leading man in "The Old Home
stead," the last time he was here,
"when I took a notion lo go on the
stage. I did not like school very well,
so had skipped out aud bent my way to
Winnipeg, where T got a job with the
fur traders and was sent north to one
of their factories.
"The boss was a cockney and wa
nlwajs ta'king about Drurj Lane and
Her Majesty's Theatre and of Ihe fine
actors and actresses he saw there, so I
made up my mind to become a player.
He was u man who never laughed if he
could help it. But my announcement
seemed to tickle him. After that he
always calle'd me David Garrick. I
worked my way to the British capital
anel went around to the -various theatres
and asked for work. When thej asked
me what I had done aud I informed
them that I was a Hudson buy trupper,
they smiled.
"I worked passage back to New York
on a returning cattle boat, went to the
playhouse where Denman Thompson
was showing, told him my yarn, and
lie put ine to work doing a verj small
bit. But it gave me a start. Somn fifteen
J ears ago I got an opportunity to play
Uncle Josh in 'The Old Homestead,'
and I have been with it ever since.
'A LL of the well-known characters of
A Irvin S. Cobb'K greatest fiction

The play is enacted by un exception

FRANK TIN NEW who is making tho
