ELLA WHEELER WILCOX'8 LATE8T 8UCCE88, With the forthcoming production of "Mlapah," Ella Wheeler Wilcox's poet ical play, says an exchange, that tal ented woman 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 maguxlnrs. 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 congratulates theatergoers upon the opportunity which will be afforded of listening to lines of rare literary beau ty. Still another declares that the play vindicates superbly the author's claim to an honorable place In the world of letters. All agree that In her lyrical treatment of the Scriptural love atory of Esther, the Jewish maiden, who captivated the heart of the Persian king, Ahasuerus, Mrs. Wilcox has ex celled all former efforts, and there la a marked coinciding In the expression of belief that "Mlxpah’s” reception will be such as to coll for further work from Mrs. Wilcox In the field cf dramatic writing.
