After eighteen months of Investigation tnd re- flection, Oliver lloro«co has decided to establish Is tbe East, tbtee resident companies: In New York, Boston tnd Philadelphia, after the manner of bit Pacific Coast organizations, which In the piat few yean bare become Internationally not- able, and at least nationally effective. The metropolitan company which Mr. Morowo tat determined to create here will be both all-star and no star. He will imvc no player In the com- pany who la not of unuiunl calibre; yet no player, at any time, will ellbtr be billed or proclalmel by tbe organisation na a chief luminary. Air. Morosco'a metroiiolltan company wilt be concerned chiefly with the premOire production ' t Bew plays, for slated periods of not less than two or more than four weeks, yet when these new pieces score hits Individuals who Bnd faTOT In particular parts will not be allowed to wander away and continue Ihotr roles Indefinitely under soothe* or the name management. Tbe "resident" company will be a aacred unit; It will be trained from month to month—and. Its manager Loops, from year to year—tound the absolute perfection af ensemble effect. Its members will enter upon their duties wltb a fall understanding that they are not to be starred or featured; that tbey are to play a variety ot parts, and that no one of tbam la ever to leave the organisation on tin svjddraly-acqulred wings of some peculiarly apt role. in his scheme of things Mr. Morosco will not forget the author. The bud of pen-promise will be encouraged, cultivated, given every opportunity of Instruction and leisure In which to perfect bis technique and broaden bis spiritual and mental vision. Tbe use ot a subscription list, similar to tbat In vogue at the Metropolitan and Century Opera Bouses, together with a season's complete an- nouncement of plans, people, plays and authors, la being considered. It Is not Mr. Morocco's Idea, In prohibiting the departure of an actor or actress wltb any success- fully trled-out piece, to form a perpetual organi- sation which would last, doubtless tlresomely •sough, season In snd season out As a matter of fact he will have no permanent contracts, but be feels tbat such a company will be a school of laestlmstlbte value to any young player, and of distinct worth to an actor or actress of any age •r distinction. He eipects changes of company, either as a whole or In part, as the varying sea- sons, abilities and popular demands shall dictate, but never In response to that stellar whim which bas, for a decade, absolutely dominated American talent. He proposes to make bis metropolitan company a thing unique, and for that particular reason stars and starring are tabooed. Tbe players wbo will constitute the metro- jiolltan company will be selected on a basis of general culture, professional experience and evi- denced versatility—that true stamp of genuine blstrlonlsm which modern "type" plays and "type" casting are slowly annihilating. Native ability, not reputation or salary, will be the ■u..m»i to this company, although Mr. Morosco states tbat It will contain more renowned numes than any company assembled In recent years. Mr. Morosco'a proposed metropolitan company will be unique, not only In personnel and produc- tive scheme, bat in Its mechanics, Its equipment. its effects. Tbe newest In scene-making and painting. In the weary problem of atage lighting, in furnishing, In settings varying from the gaunt- Bess of extreme Impressionism to the plethora ot ultra-elaboration, will be given fair and Impartial trial. Two sites, one In the heart of the mid-town district, the other uptown, are now under con- sideration for the new theatre which will bouse Mr. Morosco'a metropolitan company; none, how- ever, has been definitely chosen, snd the sugges- tions or those Interested In such an undertaking will be welcomed. The manager is oipected In New York, to make final decisions, and to begin work, not later than Ibe middle of November. Tbe metropolitan company will be the first established. The Philadelphia and Boston com- panies, tentative locations for which are already selected, will follow Immediately. These will be Hock companies, In the ancient and honorable sense, of tbe highest clasi. s On inn front page ot The Academician, a w<ekly paper, devoted to tho Interests of the Academy of Music stock company. It a beautiful half-tone of tbo popular stage director, J. Gordon Edwards. He hat been with tbe Academy Stock Company one hundred and forty odd weeks, and will continue until the end ot time, or until tbe Academy Is no more, for without J.

EARL D.SIPE\ puts forward'! *' WINIEJUm!' there's a reason.'! PASSING OF THE CHESTNUT. The Orpheum Stock gave It* last performance at tho Chestnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, en Oct. 18, as the police authorities ordered tbe bouse closed on tbat date owing to tbe failure of tbe lessees to carry oat the Improvements ordered several months ago. It Is announced tbat tbo company will not disband, but will remain Intact, and within a few days a house will be obtained lr. some other section ot the city. What house this will be baa not yet definitely been decided, although tbe probabilities are that the company will be permanently settled either In tbe Liberty, Chestnut Street Opera House, or the National Theatre The virtual eviction of tbe Orpheum Stock from the Chestnut la the culmination of a dispute that bas been waged between tbe lessees tnd Nixon A Zimmerman for nearly a year. Tbe real lesrees of tbe house are Nixon A Zimmerman, wbo sublet the house about six yean ago to Percy Williams, wbo in turn turned the lease over to the Orpheum Stock Co. The lease has only about two years to ran, and when Nixon A Zimmerman were noti- fied, early this year, that tbe front muat be moved back to the new street lint at a cost of 130,000, they were reluctant to go ahead, as tbe Orpheum Co., by tbe terms of Its lease would bsve been obliged to pay but $6,000 of tbls amount. Tbe action of the city authorities In ordering the house closed will probably reault in the abandonment of the property tor theatrical Burposea, aa several offers to lease the building for uslness' purposes have already been made. The theatre Is owned by tbe Cochran estate, and la valued at f 1,000,000 s RANCH O'lVEIT IN SPRINGFIELD. Negotiations have been completed whereby Nance O'Nell will play a limited engagement at the Broadway Theatre, In Springfield, Mass., open- ing In "Msgda," Oct. 27. Miss O'Nell will hare Carl Brlckett, the present leading man of the Broadway Stock Company, who at one time played with her company, playing opposite her. OBSERVATIONSJY JOE HEPP Live Tent Snow News.

Frank Ilnfley (California 'Frank) and Felice Bernard, nre whipping into shape a carnival aggregation to play tbe Pacific Coast country. In virgin territory, upon tbe conclusion of the Herbert A. Kline Shows' season In the South. While tie title has not been definitely de- cided upon, it would not be surprising If the new organization was projected under the name of "The Sibley Superb Shows." It Is understood tbat Harold Itushea will be the general agent, and I am Informed that he Is already on the Job routing the show. It Is finite probable tbat tie Sibley Superb Shows will be transported on fifteen cars, arrangements for which have been made long since with Col. Charles \V. Parker, Leaven- worth, Kan. The Individual factors of the new organi- zation own some cars, but the balance will be leased from Parker. I can see no reason why this combination should not make money, for all, Interested In un executive way, are seasoned shot/men, and, with Bushes looking after the advance. It should Insure success If there is such a thing as making money during the Winter months wltb a carnival on the Pacific Coast. 1 Eshib Fat, who has created a sensation with her performing horse, "Arabia," Is In New York, and I understand Is figuring on playing an engagement In Buenos Ayres tbls Fall, prior to ber taking up moving picture work In Chicago, Jan. 1. I have heard on good authority that "Arabia" may never appear with a carnival again, but will here- after be used tn moving pictures exclusively, or perhaps aa a free act. ANDY NOLAN TALKS. Andy Nolan, prior to bis departure for Atlanta, Ga., to take up his feature moving picture tour, favored the Western Bureau of Tub Nkw York Clipper with a call, and gave us an insight Into tent show conditions as be bas found them during the past Sum- mer season. According to Andy, the tent allow season of 1918 has been one of up? and downs— good weather and bad, mostly bad. It has been a discouraging Summer, the runs have l>een long, and conditions gen- erally far from satisfactory. He expressed tbe hope that shows playing South woulc' get by and clean up a little ready change, which Is possible if there Is a cessation In rainy weather conditions. The floods In the South have certainly hurt tent show business. Nolan baa great confidence In tbe futuro of feature moving pictures. He bas made a success wltb them Id tbe past, and Is more than ever determined to try tbem out to the limit In Southern territory. Andy ought to iavo a pretty good angle on the show business, he has been In it long enough, and I am glad to record the fact that In spite of set backs, now and then, he has accumulated a nifty bank roll, which, even should lie make a bloomer this Fall, will keep the wolf from the door for many a year to come. It's a wise showman who knows how to conserve his Income, and putting away a little each week, when the going 1b good, relieves tho embarrassment which naturally arrises when times are liuril. Andy has been trouplng about sixteen years, and he says that he s got his first touch to make, and that tells tbe whole story. There Is many a true word said In a jest. What first appeared to be a huge joke, now looks like a probability. I* is now said that an organization Is being formed In Chicago to project a traveling World's Fair, to Include an exhibition of everything that Is manufactured. All States will bo represented with an agricultural ex- hibit, In all forming the largest outdoor traveling exposition ever attempted. The fact that the promoters are to es- tablish a suite of oillces In Chicago, and seem to have plenty of financial backing, lends strength to the prediction that a new amuse- ment giant Is to be launched. This is an age of big things, and while a project of tbls kind, I fear, would be scoffed at a few years ago, to-day it Is taken as a matter of course. It all hinges upon the physical poslblllty of transprtlng and putting the show on tho lot. The Inter-State Com- merce laws have also to be reckoned with In the transfer of Implements, etc., from one State to another for exhibition purposes. It ia understood that the original pro- moter believes that there Is no way to frame It so as to get tho shows on the lot In a space less than thirty-six acres, bnt, of course, this area may be cut down when the showmen get on the Job. OLD TIMERS MEET IN CHICAGO. Broadway la not the only Itlalto in the world where theatrical folks congregate. There was a Joyous meeting nt Smlly Cor- bett's buffet in the City Hall Square Hotel, Chicago, last Wednesday morning, when Frank Bush, Harry Brown (of Brown Har- rison and Brown), Billy Chose, of Billy Chase and St. Felix Sisters; "Chinese" John Leach Waldo Whipple, the ru'ie dancer: Ar- thur itlgby, the minstrel, and Frank Me-Ninh, met and "cut up" experiences In the "old days." They represented about four hundred and fifty years of existence, tut we were afraid to ask them how to dlvlJo tt, as each claimed to be tho youngest. Billy Cbnao doesn't look a day older than he did thirty-five years ago. They were all clean shaven—not a single one of them having a vestige of hirsute adornment on their physogs, and tbey bave made millions laugh In tbetr own inalvl'lunl way. There's something about die show business that keeps folks young, and It al- ways tends to longevity to make people laugh, although I bsve known a lot of old grouches that could evolve a wheeze. I wish I had tbe space to relate some of the funny stories these histrionics got off at their meeting In Chicago last week, but that would require a Joke book of one hundred pages. I would like to see that bunch In an nil star variety cast. IN 3001 I was identified with the Walter L. Main Fashion Place Shows, and among the artists who helped to make tbe exhibition that year one of tbe best ever put on the road, was James Savoy, who, with Mrs. Savoy, put on a burlesque ooxlng match, clown dogs and novelties. Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 21, James favored the Western Bureau of The New York Clipper with a call, while plavlng Chicago at the Oreat Northern Hippodrome, and an- nounced that he will play Western vaudeville. Savoy bas purchased a farm in tbe Sacra- mento Valley, Cnl., and Intimates that after a year or two of vaudeville he's going to settle down and be o gentleman farmer. The Savoys and company, wltb their acro- batic bull terriers, were a tremendous hit In the Orest Northern Hippodrome bill last week. The presentation Is Individual and unique, and gives the greatest satisfaction. The seven acrobatic dogs ate a novelty, and they do everything but talk. It Is certainly a pleasure to meet old friends with whom we have trouped with the white tops In years gomj by, and an added pleasure to chronicle their marked suc- cess on the vaudeville stage. Jim Savoy always was a conscientious performer with the circus, and it la little wonder that he, with bis charming wife, has made a great success on the variety stage. I am certain tbat the vaudeville fan.:, of America will regret the time Savoy decides to retire to bis California estate. * Oborob H. Dionok writes me that tbe "Les Mlserables" moving pictures, which he Is projecting in Indiana aud Kentucky, opened great at Michigan City, Ind., nnd played to big business at Gary. D;gnou has ii world of friends In the to it show field, and all wish him unbounded success Id his moving picture venture. IT is not at all surprising to have troupers call at the Western Bureau if The Ndw York Clipper, but right In tka midst of the season's first snowstorm, Tuesday. Oct. 21, wbo should drop In but Frank K. McNlsli and his flon. I bad been bothering about more or Ions nil day with vexing problems, but when this veteran and his offspring drifted in it was like a ray of sunshine, and, In fact, we didn't need any electric lights. In spite of the fact that It was aa dark as blazes on account of the Inclemency of tbe weatlW, Tbe elder McNlsh, In a most delightful In- terview, said: "I see in your columns there's a wholo lot of folks pluming themselves uoon the fact that tbey bave been taking The Clipper for the last thirty years. I want to go on record as saying that I haven't missed a single Issue of The Old Reliable for fortv- slx years. I recall tho days In the States, in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, England, France and Germany, when I was doing my 'Sl'tnce and Fun,' and It would have bjen an awful affair had It not been possible for me to get a copy of TitB New Tons Clipper. "Whoever coined that phrase, The Old Reliable, was right "There Is one thing; I like about The Clip- per —I never knew ft to pan an p.ct. It is your friend, and it gives everyone a cbence who Is trying to make a living In our pro- fession. There Is something about Tun Old Reliable that appeals to all show folks. One thing Is sure—you can flud it on sale all over the world. "I am asked every day : 'Well, "Silence and Fun." how do you manage to keep so young? Why, you were on the boards forty- six years ago, but you don't lon'.t a day older than when you were skipping over those three tables high. How do you do It? Well, maybe It's because I pursue tbe same kind of policy that The Old Reliable does. Try to be honest with yourself and everybody else, end never knock, because there Is always an echo to a knock. "I can remember tbe time years ago when a so-called legitimate artist would not look nt a variety performer, but to-day It's dif- ferent. We meot them on every bill, and now they speak to'ua. And why? My opinion is that vaudeville rules the amuse- ment world. It does, for a fact. Did you ever stop to realize the money that is in- vested In vaudeville? Sit down nnd tRke a pencil and figure It out, and you will find It overshadows tbe Investment of the Steel Trust "I am proud to be one of a largo .irmv of enteitnlners In the vaudeville realm of enter- tainment, and I am doing my very best to keep young and happy. "I nave seen them go and I have seen them come, but TnB Clipper goes on forever." I wish I could reclto all of ihe nice things that McNlsh raid about The New York Clippeb during this Interview. You know I firmly believe that Tub Old Reliable is looked upon by show folks as tlie Bible, nnd ypu can imagine how proud I feel when sterling artists of International reputation drop into the Western Bureau and say Und words about Tun New York Clippeb. The show business la passing through an evolutionary process. Moving picture* nre displacing Iegltlmato attractions, out tfiere will always be wltb uo those dear souls who help In no small measure to entertain the amusement seeking public.
