ELLA WHEELER WILCOX'8
LATE8T 8UCCE88,
With the forthcoming production of
"Mlspah,” Ella Wheeler Wilcox's poet
ical play, says an exchange, that tal
ented womnn will be added to the guild
of American playwrights, a fact which
has evoked comment of variegated
strain In the editorial columns of the
current magazines. One writer won
ders If Mrs. Wilcox Is about to desert
her calling as a prominent essayist for
the more lucrative occupation of writ
ing exclusively for the stage. Another
congrntulntes theatergoers upon the
opportunity which will he afforded of
listening to lines of rare literary beau
ty. Still another declares that the play
vindicates superbly the author's claim
to nn honorable place in the world of
letters. All agree that In her lyrical
treatment of the Scriptural love story
of Esther, the Jewish maiden, who
captivated the heart of the Persian
king, Ahaauerus, Mrs. Wilcox has ex
celled all former efforts, and there Is n
marked coinciding In the expression of
belief flint "Mlzpah’s” reception will he
such as to call for further work front
Mrs. Wilcox In the field of dramatic
writing.
