Y, Sat- urday, April 12, to a full house, prcsontlng her travelogue, "Andean Travel and Adven- ture," Illustrated by excellent pictures.

Mrs. Adams lias talked to packed bouses In every largo city where she has appeared. Her lec- tures are Interesting and Instructive. Pro- fessionals who ure contemplating a visit to South America would do well to hear this course o( lectures and see the really wonder- ful motion pictures she presents. The following travelogues will bo pre- sented at tho Academy of Music: April 20, "From Patagonia to Paraguay;" May 8, "From tho Amnion to the Orinoco;" May 10, "Through the Caribbean Countries." «■» ST. LOUIS FAVORS 10-20-30. Tho ton and twenty cent vaudeville houses in St. Louis, Mo., bave controlled tho the- atrical patronage tbe past season, as evi- denced by the building of several elaborate and expensive houseB, which are the Kmprons, new Grand Opera Houbc, now Urand Central and numerous smaller houses throughout the cltv. It has been reported by the local news- papers that tho Oarrlck 'and Century will close their doors for all time at tho end of this season. These two houses have been in operation for some years, uud have always up to the present season showed good results. The Century Is connected with the Olympic, and is under the management of W. D, Cave, the Qarrlck, one of the 'Shukcrt houses, being operated under the management of Mclvlllo Stotls. «»» CONK IS MUCH ALIVB, Spencer 11. Cone, who is associated with, the Emergency Play Bureau. In the Knicker- bocker Theatre Building, who was reported as dead In local papers last week. Is much alive and, in a statement, said. "I'm used to It all now, but gracious, I'm ■ore about being reported as seventy years old. I'm only Oity-tlirce, and I'm Kato Clux- ton's brother. Bet mo right on the age and report me as saying the same as Mark Twain said when ho was reported dead, that the re- port of my death was greatly exaggerated." Mr. Cone explained that on April 8 a dis- tant relative of his, of exactly the same name, died, and he believes the report that ho was dead came about that way. e n » WILLIAMSON ACTS AGAIN. It Is interesting to know that after fifteen years retirement from acting, James C. Will- iamson, tho well known actor-manager, made his re-appearance In public on the stago of Her Majesty's Theatre, Sydney, Australia, on Feb. 22, at a special testimonial performance — the Scott appeal matinee — when many Australian celebrities responded to tho noble cause The entire occasion proved a memor- able one. but the rc-appcnrancc of James C. Williamson and bis well known rendition of Dion Bouclcault's "Kerry" was an event In Itself, especially as it wna entirely unlooked for. «» » "LONESOME PINE" PRINCIPALS WED. "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" led Into matrimony In Buffalo, N. Y., on April 7, when Geo. Bancrofts and dWna 0. Brothers, frlnclpals In "The Trail of the Loncsomo ■lne" Co., which played nt the Star Thcntro last week, applied to Clork Kllcy, in tho City Hall, for a marriage license, then appeared before Judge Noonan, In tho City Court, w)»»-e tbe solemn knot wai tied, Charles Pronoun sailed April 12 on tbe Olympic, for his annual season abroad, dur- ing which he will visit London, Paris, Berlin, and Vienna, to supervise productions of his plays in tbe former city and look for new plavs for next season In the others. Mr. Frohman said: "I will go to London In the first place to make new productions at my Duke of York and other theatres. I nave arranged with David Belasco to pro- duce 'Years of Discretion' and 'The Woman' in London. Among tbe other American works I will do there are 'The Conspiracy' and the new play that Augustus Thomas is now finishing "My trip abroad will also include visits to Paris, Vienna and Berlin. I shall go to Berlin for a new production In which I am Interested, and of which you will hear more .later. This new production will occur In May. "I have completed tbe plana for devoting one of my New York theatres next season entirely to 'An Evening with J. M. Barrio's One Act Plays.' "This season bas demonstrated that the plnygolng public has said 'good-bye' to that type of play that does not begin at tbe be- ginning, but begins with a long introduction or 'preparation before lta real beginning. Tbe days of 'preparation' in playwrltlng are over. Plays fall oftenest because they suffer oftcnest from too much preparation.' The real playwlrgbts of to-day never give a thought to 'preparation,' but get quickly to their subjects and compel their characters to accomplish all necessary 'preparation' in situations. Speed In getting to the heart of the subject has become socb a national taste that it amounts to a national demand. To- day the author wbo jumps quickest Into his subject wins quickest. I am glad to say that In this regard American plays, with their swift dialogue that deals only with the actual plot and their rapid action, are winning. "I have Just returned from an extensive trip through the Went, which gave me the chance to visit and make definite plans for the principal people under my management now appearing in the West. I have arranged Hint Maude Adams will continue ploying 'Peter Pan' uninterruptedly until after the next Christmas holidays. Then Miss Adams pro- duces J. M. Barrie's new plays, which will keep her at tbe Empire Theatre for many months. "Should wo settle upon 'Much Ado About Nothing' for John Drew, Mr. Drew Is eager Hint tbe entire cast be American and tbe production American made. "In the West I finished the rehearsals of Billlc Burke, In 'The Amazons,' by taking tbe entire cast West with me. Tbe Empire Theatre will be closed for ten days for lta Rprlng cleaning. And then Miss Burke, as Tommy Helturbct, the girl wbo grew up as a boy, comes there on April 28 for ber first oppeorance on that stage since she made her American debut there with John Drew, In 'My Wife." " 4i » CANNOT DISCRIMINATE. Gov. Sulzer has signed the bill which amends the Civil Rights law. It provides that no hotel keeper shall display, post or circulate any notice to tbe effect that any person, on account of race, creed or color, Is unwelcome as a guest. Tbe provisions of tbe new law are general. They affect the owners, proprietors! or mano- gera of any place of public accommodation. The places included are: hotels, conducted for transient guests or for those seeking health or rest; restaurants, eating houses, public conveyances on land or water, bath houses, barber shops, Lhoares or music halls.

A violation Is also mado a mis- demeanor, punishable by a fine of from $100 to JtSOO, or by imprisonment from thirty to ninety days, or both. «»» MISS CUNNINGHAM SCORBS. Ono of tho features of the concert at the Winter Garden last Sunday night was tho singing of Cecil Cunningham, late prima donna with Henry W. Savage. Miss Cun- ningham suns two ballads, tho Unit a showy number called "Heart of Hearts," and for a second she chose a beautiful Irish ballad called "In tho Shadow of the Dear Old Blar- ney Stono," a now song, with which Andrew Mack has made a phenomenal success on the Orphcum Circuit. Miss Cunningham was a pronounced hit at tbe Winter Garden. «»» JUMP l,BO0 MILB8. "Billy, the Kid" Co.
