There ,It a revolt of the playgoer against tnc'lurM war plays which tbe theatrical man- ager Id his wisdom Is producing—the vaude- ville manager is equally at fault. Borne time ago 1 told you tbat tbe censor bad warned them tbe; must not attempt songs, or sketches, or dramas of a mischievous ten- dency. Uayoe be barked, but did not bite. The public has, In tbe event, proved tbe best censor ss ofttlmes lias been tbe case. It li distressed and angered by lurid pictures of battle: It Is bored by blatant patriotism of. song and scone; It Is specially resentful of the red-nosed comic's opinions-and advice. And when It meets with this It is Just stay- ing; away. '-The .result Is the war Is rigor- ously excluded now by the clever manager— though, as .usual, his cleverness may prove to have possessed him too late. SOME AFTKHNOOJiS—HOME EVENINGS. Another egregious folly Is tbe re-arrange- ment of play performances. I am afraid this ' Krt Tree's Idea. Thi _ n fb give six evening enccs weekly, and afternoon performances, wsi Sir Herfcrt Tree's Idea. The custom here baa been to give six evening perform- ances weekly, and afternoon performances, for cbolce, on "Wednesdays and Saturdays. Ugbtt now go out In London early in tbe evening, and the saloon a are closed at ten. The city Is. indeed, very dark and cheerless. 8o 11 occurred to Tree to give a perform- ance every afternoon at His Majesty's, but only on Wednesday and Saturday nights, al- ' though it is 'the experience of' every man- ' eger that tbe people who are In the habit of ' vultlng the theatre In the evening are not free to do so In the afternoon, being at business. Other managers followed suit, but did so in a curiously vacillating way. choos- ing their particular days for afternoon or evening performance. The result Is tbat a countryman coming into town and making for bis favorite theatre does not know whether it Is .open or abut. And It Is fatally con- futing. Managers are crying out all the time It Is tho duty of the public to keep us Solng at this Juncture," and yet they are olng everything to Irritate and confuse their patrons. THE NEW IlEVUE. Alfred liutt has permitted tbe writers of James Glover said at a meeting the other day that be did not suppose for a moment that be bad been asked to write the music for tbe Hippodrome revue because of his ability, but because the German gentleman originally commissioned has had to go home to try and kill a few English. Jimmy will always be Joking. "Pat," otherwise J. A. B. Malone, the well kr.ovyn Gaiety manager, is now a Dragoon. Arthur Collins, of Drury Lane, has a son and a brother with the Army. The Elliott Savonaa. into whose date book tbe war made a deep Invasion, for their work is very popular on tbe continent, are this week appearing most effectively at tbe Um- pire. Golder's Green, North London. ' Eugene Btratton lately bad to hurry home to f<ondon on account of Illness. His doctor sent him to bed for Indefinite weeks. Delysla, tbe French actress who made a hit at tbe Ambassador's the other night, was tho wife of Vrogson, but divorced him some time before his death. , Louis Meyer revived "The Glad Eye" at the Strand Theatre on Wednesday, In super- session of "Tbe Sliver King," and Invited bis audience to state, by vote, tbe days and hours at which, they thought tbe theatre should be open. Genevieve Ward, Gideon Lee's granddaugh- ter, who has been on the English stage more than forty years, and was a well known opera singer years before that, returns to the stage to-nlgbt to play Queen Margaret for V. ll. Benson, in his production of "Rich- ard III,'' at Kcnnington. "A COMMON THEME." Fcldman has successfully appealed against a. decision of tbe courts which held that bis Bong, 'Von Didn't Want to Do It, But Ton Did?' was on Infringement of Francis ft Day's rights In "You Made Me Love You." The Master of tho Rolls said be was not concerned with tbe question of Fcldman'* song being a copy. What be had to decide was, did the earlier song contain an original the new Empire revue; "By Jingo If We Do —," a good deal of freedom In the way of humor. Some of the ncswpapcrs scored It sharply, and It has been toned down care- fully. Otherwise, the revue Is very well liked. It has more story than most compo- sitions of Its kind. The earlier scenes are enacted In tbe offices of a great newspaper owned by a peer, with a pretty daughter. A smart Journalist Is deeply In love wltb her. He Is told that the best wiv to moke food wltb the paper Is to bring scoops in for he paper. So he loiters on tbo Thames embankment where he sees a lurid bit of London life, then mokes for the wnr.whero ho Is - nearly done for by devilish Uhlans. There Is a brilliant wlndup at tho million- aire newspaper proprietor's mansion. Promi- nent parts are entrusted to tbe French dancer and n.imc, Reglna Flory, who ranges from a pnsHlonnto dance to a thrilling epi- sode'wltb n Uhlan, and'a. modern' suggestive •our : to Mntiel Russell, at her best In tho melodramatic Incident on tbe embankment; to Ralph Lynn, a debonnalr leading 'man, and to little Kathleen Clifford, qlllto a'Lon- don favorite now. . • •„ • ■ They are not disposed to dp. anything fresh at the Arhnmbra just now.' but' tbey constantly Introduce to "Not Unlikely" some favorite from the earlier reviews. It baS become accordingly a good' deal like tbat Friday dlsb which tho'schoolboys call resur- rection iplo. Lee White's hard, effective work 1* still a great factor In tbe success of tbo revue. Robert Hales' burlesque of Ethel Levey singing "I'm Your Tango Girl" is one of the funniest things ever seen. THIS TRIPLE DILL. Charles B. Cochran says that tbo recep- tion of Ills "triple bill" at tbo Ambassador s Theatre has proved to him this Is tho ideal form of entertainment for this house. Rut ho has already hod to cut out his first play, "From Louvaln." It was cleverly written end cleverly acted, but It gave too painful a picture of the flight of the Belgians from that unhappy city. A French farce, "L'ln- ponue," exploited Max Denrley most effective- ly, and a little French actress, Mile. Bonnet, quite n geutuB. lint the bit of the show Is a revue railed "Odds and Ends," on which Cochran says be has "spared no economy." The Idea is that a party of Belgian refugees, bllletted in a most forlorn little English the- atre, declare themselves to be actors nnd willing to help the manager out of his dill! cully. So, scraping together any kind of properties, they perform a rough and ready revue, (he best tiling of the kind since tbo food days of the Follies, A prominent part Is given to Millie Sim, who Is the daughter of Millie llylton nnd the niece of Lctty Llnd, who were both there. Apropos of the wandering refugee*, poor John Tiller, the famous entrepreneur of dancers, sends home pitiful news from South Africa, where he took sixty-live girls. So bad is business that the travelers did not take their expenses any time. Tiller la through his money and cannot get remit- tances from home. At tbe time of his last letter he declared that lie did not know really Where Ihcy would be able to raise food. Hiinnko. the Japanese tragedian, Is to fill up the four afternoons weekly which Coch- ran's four evening performances and two tantlnccs leave vacant at tbe Ambassador's. liCDn Aslvweil linn rounded up a largo com- pany of distinguished actresses, with whom she proposes to run a vaudeville show at tho Coronet Theatre for the war funds. She 1ms the organization of the Actresses' Franchise league behind her. "BUSINESS AS USUAL." After next week the Iiondon Hippodrome is to close for final rehearsals of the now revue. "Unslnesti As Usual," said to be by "F. V. Mark." This Is really 10. V. Lucas, the we|l known literary essayist. The rovue Is In eight scenes, of an elaborate nature; very patriotic. But Albert Be Courvllle tells me he I* going to allow no spread eagle stuff, and nothing likely to bring pain- ful thoughts Into the minds of the audi- ence. It will be pleasant, all tbe time, very quick and very picturesque.

DRINKS AT THEATnESf Ernest Collins, the manager of tbe Queen's Theatre, la i bit of a lawyer. lie says tbe authorities have no power to sbut up tbe liquor aaloons in tbe theatres, as they come under a special provision. But ho would stand a dog's chance fighting the point. Lloyd George and the Lord Chief JubIIco (once Itufus Isaac) went to see "Potash ft Perlmuttor" the other night. Whether they took a drink or whether they talked tbe law wltb Collins, deponent sayeth not. But they laughed.

Sir William Carrlngton, keener of the King's Privy Purse, who died suddenly, used to onmnlc the theatres and music hulls for tits royal master and mistress, and there Is no harm In saying now that he was finally responsible for the royal command program at the l'nlacc, the selection of which caused much heartburning, and severed friendships not yet patched up.

Dodson, manager, closed Its season at York, Neb., and shipped direct to Columbus, Ind., where everything was put In storage for the balance of the Winter. We believe tbe season Just passed was one of the most prosperous sea- sons in tbe history of the World's Fair 'Shows. At least everyone connected with the above shows went borne wearing a smile that won't come off, and all seemed to have a nice bankroll. When we arrived in York, Neb, Oct. 12, the weather seemed to be against im, but as luck would have it tho Fall Festival did not open until Wednesday, Oct. 14, and Wednesday morning the sun was out bright and everything was In our favor, and everyone connected with the out- fit said it would be a banner week, and they were not disappointed. The shows, riding devices and also concessions got money. We allowed at York. Neb., under the Commercial Club. It was their first attempt to hold a Fall Festival In that city. They were so well pleased with tbe business and the way things were conducted that they signed con- tracts with Manager Dodson to furnish tho attractions the coming season. The committee at York Is to be cong'ratu- latod for having such a grand and gala week for their first attempt, and we feel sure it will be a success In the future. It is the Intention of the World's Fair Shows to open next season In this section of the coun- try and work direct into Iowa, where we have some contracts signed for the coming season In towns that we played this season. and which proved to be good. We left York, Nob., on Sunday, Oct. 18, on our way to Win- ter quarters at Columbus, and Manager Dod- son stopped over In Chicago, and while there had tho good luck to purchase for the com- ing season a Parker three-nbroast Jumping horse carrousel. The new Parker machine, nnd novel carved wood and panel fronts, which wo intend to build during the Winter months, will add greatly to tho appearance of the outfit In the Spring, and when the bard plays everything will open in all Its glory. When tho close came Saturday night, at York, and the hand played "Home, Sweet Hone," everyone seemed to regret It, and all we could hear was "we will sec you in the Spring when the outfit open*." There will be n groat many Of the faces seen around tho outfit the coming season that were with us when we closed. Oct one of oiirbunches of REAL STAGE GREENBACKS and flash them before your friends.

On the morning of Oct. 27 we were awak- ened at elr o'clock" In the morning by tbe cry of fire. Someone ran through the train calling "tbe train Is on fire," The dining car was on fire and was burned almost to the track* before tbe fire department arrived. Tbe dining and the band car and a chair car belonging to tbe Santa Fe Railroad were standing about a hundred feet away from tbe rest of the Allmann train; with tbe diner in tbe middle. The band boys got out and pushed their car away from tbe burn- ing car, and thought they were safe, bat some railroad men, seeing the burning car standing next to the Santo Fe car. loosened tbe brakes and let the burning car bump Into the band car again, so It bad to be done all over again. The first was caused by' the bursting of a pipe In the high pressure gasoline range that Doc. purchased last Spring. It was one of tb» highest priced gasoline ranges over turned out for hotel use. It was a sample stove and was on exhibition in Kansas City when It took Doc's eye. The car tbat burned was a first class Pullman, just out of the servlcs, but Doc. seems to feel worse over losing bis stove than he does over losing bis car. as It was one of the main points of Interest of the show tram, and one of the first things that Doc, .would show his friends when they would come to visit him. This Is the second fire on here this sea- son. The other occurred going Into Denver, when the car containing Wests Society Cir- cus was set on fire by a spark from tbe engine. This (Woodward, Okla.) la tbe closing stand for Allmann Bros.' Shows. The train will go from here direct into Winter quarters at Lancaster, Mo. With possibly one excep- tion tbe Allmann Shows nave had tbe most prosperous season of any carnival on the road. I think tbat I can safely say this, as we have people, sbows and concessions on here that have been with all the big ones this season, and tbey ell report bad business everywhere. I have personal friends on most of tho caravans, and their letters to me tell tales concerning conditions in the show business this season that I would hate to see In prist Personally I do not believe that all of tbe hard time* in the show busi- ness this season is due to the war. If you are playing the same old towns, with the same old worn-out shows, year after year, as some of you are doing, bow can you expect to do any business? You must be progressive Al. Campbell, our railroad contractor, left Inst week to take a two car circus South for the Winter, Al. doe* not believe all the hard times in tbe South talk. Doc Zlegler, one of our promoters, left yes- terday for Lancaster, Mo., to purchase a car from W. P. Hall, In which to carry his negro minstrels. H. 8. Tyler leaves as soon as the season closes for California. He will Whiter in Venice. Doc. Allmann and John Martin will spend most of the Winter In Kansaa City. Billy Streator Is among the chosen few who will live on easy street this Winter. . Tommy West Is fixed for the Winter, wltb fifteen weeks In vaudeville already booked for his troupe of trained horses and, mules. A few of the shows are going South with tbe various small caravans that stay out all Winter, ibut most of them arc going Into Winter quarter* with Doc. Allmann to re- build and repaint and be In shape for tbe opening date next Spring. ■ .' « Clarence VcrmcHo haa been top money man amopg tbe concession's..
