BT nAnilY LJL FCAJtL. The Attaches Club, which is composed of the N. Y. Hippodrome employees, on March 15. gave a beefsteak party and, believe me. It wns "some" steak. The beefsteak hnd plenty of running mates. The refreshments were Immense, drawn from the wood, served In huge pitchers, and never let It be said there wasn't a grand sufficiency to quench the thirst of all present. Must offer an apology to Horry Millions' stomach, as It thought his throat was rut. Beefsteaks arc not on speaking terms with Indigestion. Itev. Doc Potter kept two waiters busy serving him sarsnparllla. Will that wagon ever brciik down? John Busch was also there—no relative of Amihauser's. but still he docs the name credit. He wns very popular throughout tho evening, ns everybody kids Busch becnuse he has a baby face. After the feed came an entertn'nmcnt In vaudeville. Those who participated were: Jos. Eisner. In great men, past and present, a howling success, as he wns a great favorite with the audience, owing to the success he made In past performances. Especially wns this so of his burlesque on Gypsy life, in which he wns the Gypsy Queen. "Long live our Ouecn." Tom Mullens, Johnny Fleming nnd Arthur J. Ryan told stories.

March 18, under tho auspices of the Committee on Drama of the MnoDowell Club, and It was .argely at- tended. Two one-act plays, by August Strindberg, "The Stronger" nnd "Pnrlnh," were presented. By way of Introduction. Edwin BJorkmnn, who translated the lattor niece Into English, told of Strindberg and nls work, or, rather, gave his Interpretation of the work of the afflicted dramallet. "The Stronger," played by Mabel Moore, nedwig Relehcr nnd Marjoric Edmonson, was Interesting and original. Tho other, despite capital acting by Walter Hampden end Frank Hclchor, was for the most part a dull argu- ment between two criminals, one of whom had b»en punished for his crime, and neither of whom was deserving of sympathy, nut "Pariah" Is remreaentatlvo of a certain period In Mr. Strlmlberg's life, and consequently was deserving of attention on that account. In "The Stronger," Mabel Moore was ex- cellent as tho tnlkattvo married woman, wbllo Miss Relehcr sat back In her chair and lis- tened, but never sympathetically. The women ore rivals for the love of a man, who. Infatuated by the unmarried won an. com- pels his wife to emulate the former's virtues and weaknesses against her own will. The theatre was tilled with an attentive audience, composed mostly of women. — *' i _ DEAD ACTRESS' PAIiENTS SATISFIED. Henry N. Schmltz, father of Frances Leslie, the actress, who was found dead on board the steamship Ocean).:, March Id. received a cable despatch from United State* Consul Swalm, March 18, saying that so far as tbe Investigation had gone It was apparent Miss Leslie had died of natural causes. "We are satisfied that Frances' death was due to natural causes," said her mother, Mrs. John N. Schmltz. who lives dt No. 178 West Ninety-seventh Street. "The American Con- sul cabled us the examination has revca'cd no posslblo grounds for suspecting foul piny. We are sure Frances was a victim of a sud- den Illness brought on by seasickness. The coroner at Southampton Is said to have stated that many such cases have come under his observation. "As far as we know," Mrs. Etchmlts con- tinued, "Frances never In ber life had any- thing to do with a certain man aboard the ship, whose name has been mentioned. Bbe was fond of her borne and was even unwill- ing to stay In Boston with the 'Follies' com- pany In January until a substitute could be found. "She refused many offers to go on the road, and consented to the .London trip be- cause It was for six weeks only, as she wss anxious to acquire a knowledge of new dancing steps. She was to return In May to rehearse for the 'Follies of 1018.'" <■» THB AMERICAN INVASION. Tho Invasion of the vaudeville stage of England by American talent, a fact empba* sized by the four American stars lately engaged for the Tivoll, in London, has been the subject of a special article from tbe Lon- don correspondent In The New York lltrald, of March 15.

Richard Pltrot Is negotiating for the early appearance of Tho MacLalne of Lochblae.

He has an exceptionally good voice and appearance, and Bings songs on tbe line of George Lashwood, and also slogs several Scotch songs In Highland cos- tume. Of course, being distantly related to tbe English royal family, they do not much approve of him going on the stage, but bo Is willing to play a few weeks In America, and his name and the press matter which could be worked up would bo a big draw. The story of his life was cabled to New York on or about Feb. 27. 11113, He is by no means trading on his namo alone, as ho has a very good voice and good appearance. Mr. Pltrot has different offers for tho Mnclnlnc from several big managers, and William Morris made an offer for Holy Week, at the New York Theatre, with a big salary, but he could not accept aa the Umo was too short to bring htm over from Scotland. «■» BENEFIT FOR OPERA EMPLOYES.
