A few weeks ago, according to "The Comoedia," a small lock of the Emperor's hair brought at an auction in London the miserly price of one hundred dollars while a blonde curl of Pearl White, which it was claimed she had sold for a benefit, brought eight hundred dollars. The other locks brought the standard after-war prices and one sees that the H. C. L. has entered into the field of souvenir collecting. A lovely ringlet of the late Gaby Deslys brought two hundred dollars but one of Adelina Patti went at two hundred and fifty. The Astor family seem to be the largest collectors of these strange souvenirs and it is said their collection catalogued and under glass, represents most all of the famous personages of the day and is valued at half a million dollars. MARSHALL NEILAN will take his company and cross the ocean in July to make at least two productions in England and on the continent. Margery Daw is the only player so far named to go. While he is abroad, Mr. Neilan will maintain a company in his Hollywood studio. MADAME PETROVA'S vaudeville contract is about at an end and Madame and her very svelte figure are to be seen again in pictures. It is more than likely that she will make her own pictures. AFTER being out of producing touch with the films for some time, William A. Brady is returning to the fold. His company plans to produce Mr. Brady's stage successes. Travers Vale will be director general. A COMEDY without any subtitles has. been completed by Ward Lascelle in T/Os Angeles. It is called "Uneasy Feet." There has been a great deal of discussion recently about the importance of subtitles anyway. WHAT do you think about Wallace Reid's return to the stage? He received $1,000 weekly for appearing as the chauffeur in "The Rotters" for a three weeks' run in a west-coast theater. It's been a long time since Wally has heard applause. RENNOLD WOLFE, theatrical columnist on the New York Morning Telegraph, writes this: "John Golden, the theatrical producer, in company with Wallace Munro, who im-'. agines things for him, dropped in one eve-' ning at the Broadway Theatre, where The Deemster was being shown on the screen. Golden, admiring the v/ork of the young girl in the picture, remarked to Munro, Where do these picture people find these wonderful kids? That girl would be great as the ingenue in 'Howdy, Folks.' " "Howdy Folks" has since been put on in Chicago. "A voice came out of the dark nearby muttering : 'I'd like to have a chance at that. I'm getting a little tired of being shot, and wouldn't mind letting the public know I am not a mute.' " 'Who are you,' stammered Golden. " 'Hawkshaw, the dctec — ,' the voice stammered. 'I mean I'm Marion Swayne the kid you seem to like.' "Golden a moment later had the girl out in the lobby, and there he jotted down with a pencil a memorandum of a contract of two years with the youngster." Of course, Marion is in the leading role.
