Mantell's Baton Found SAN JOSE, Jan. 8.—Among the glittering ornaments of the property man of a local theatre, A. B. Lang- ford, the sheriff, yesterday found the baton used by Robert Mantell in his characterization of King John. Man- tell lost the insignia of kingly au- thority while playing here recently and wired the sheriff. The baton was made by London jewelers exact- ly after that of the real King John, and although its jewels are all paste, the baton is of considerable intrinsic value because of the workmanship. It was sent to the actor today. Brave William Gillette William Gillette, the American actor-author, lately sailed on the Carmania, of the Cunard line, for a short unprofessional, but business trip to London. On his way to the steam- er, Mr. Gillette stopped his taxicab, got out and tele])honed Charles Frohman. This is what Mr. Frohman. seated in his office, heard in the familiar Will- iam (iillelte tones: "I went to the Em- pire Theatre last night. T have only one thing to say.

American should he proud of Ethel Barrymore's performance of Tante." Mr. Gillette is an American dramatist and actor who stands as Iiigh in Eng- land as in America. Mr. Froiiman is a manager with as many English peo- ple as Americans under his employ- ment, hut he had to admit that Mr. Gillette's telephone message was noth- ing less than a shock. At last an American actor had spoken well of American acting. Tn these days it takes a bold man to jiraLse anything hut English acting. This season, es- ])ecially, it is never done. Mr. Gillette is a brave man ; but the fact remains that after his bold deed of saying a good word for American acting. Mr. Gillette hurried as fast as he could to get on a i)oat that would take him to sea.
