l Great Clowns of
: the American Stage
j By WILBUR M. BATES
NEW YORK Oct. 29.—In the time | quin, for the first time In history was
of Cicero there existed in Rome a mute. Christopher Rich, the manager
famous tragedian and poet named An- of the theatre, played the part. He
dronicus One day he tound himself ■ made harlequin dumb because he could
before a great audience with a very not deliver dialogue, but in pantomimic
bad cold and ’before he had finished
bis declamations he hnd become so
hoarse he could not he heard. Ho sup
plicated the people to allow a slave
to recite the verses, which ho would
Illustrate with proper facial expres
sion and gesture. His request was
granted, a flute player accompanied
the recitation of the slave and Andro-
nlcus fitted facial expression and ges
tures to the words.
According to Livy and Valerius Max
imus, this was the origin of panto
mime, which later gave to the world
the clown, harlequin, pantaloon and
columbine, the central figures of pan
tomimic spectacles today. The Roman
public, greedy of novelty, accepted this
style of performance with great avid
ity and from that time, for many years,
po other form of public entertainment
bad a chance to become popular. After
the death of Roscius and Esopus, trag
edy became the accepted form of en
tertainment.
The mask, still preserved In the cos
tume of the harlequin, who. until the
advent of the famous "Joey” Grimaldi,
the clown. In England, was the leader
In Interest of those four characters,
was always used In these performan
ces. It had two faces—one comic and
the other sad—and could be changed
at will. This device today Is more
practically represented in the chalk
face of the clown, who has really been
a stranger to the American stage since
the death of George L. Fox and the
retirement of # Tony Denier, who now
lives In Chicago, rich and r*»t*cted In
bis old age.
No pantomime could be “legitimate*
without the Clown, harlequin, panta
loon and columbine, who undoubtedly
bad their conceptlon-ln mythology. The
Jolly clown is a representative of Mo-
mu*; the agile harlequin. Mercury,
with his cadeceua transformed into a
magic sword and his petasu* In mor
tal form. These characters, In the
guise In which the stage of today
knows them, are undoubtedly of com
paratively modem origin and first ap
peared In France and England.
Italians continued the vogue of pan
tomime and carried It to France. The
harlequin, willed by the Italians “Ar
lecchlno,” became very prominent, an
In 1668, for the first time In France, in
troduced French songs, situations and
dialogue and modified manner** and
costumes to suit Gallic tastes. Harle
quin was not a mute In those days,
dressed in skin-tight costume of das-
sling brilliancy. He jvore a grotesque
garb and was the comedian of the time,
speaking his mind on all subjects and
satirising noted political personalities—
a sort of humorous chronicler of the
doings of the towr. The last great
French harlequin was named Debu
reau. who gave his son a lesson In his
«rt on his deathbed in 1847.
The harlequin nnd his three comphn
Ions in humor and fun first appeared
In England in 1717. Three years later
the first English , pantomime wi
trick scenery was Introduced at the
theatre In Lincoln's Inn Fields, called
“Harlequin Cnsketed” and was adver
tised as a new Italian mimic scene be
tween a harlequin, scaramouch,
clown, pantaloon, or an old fanner. Co-
luir.Mne, his wife, and others. Hart
expression, whether comic or pathetic,
he was a genius nnd could either con
vulse an audience with laughter or
move It to tears tit will. Rich also is-
lenced Columbine, who has generally
been mute ever since.
“Joey” Grlmalda first mnde a great
hit as the clown In chalk face and
motley In the famous old pantomime,
Harlequin and Mother Goose; or The
Golden Egg.” From that time until his
death he was the vogue and the clown
subordinated the harlequin to pccond
place In the big quartette of panto
mime, ■ Where he has remaintd ever
since.
The decline of old fashioned pan-
tomlne In England after the death of
Grimaldi was followed by extravagan
zas and burlettas, nowadays called
burlesques, which gradually develop
ed Into the great spectacles presented
at Drury Lane Theatre In London nnd
which, during the past four years,
have been brought to America by
Klaw Sc Erlanger, who will present the
latest .Drury Lnne success at the New
Amsterdam theatre In New York on
November 14th, called “Ilumpty
Dumpty.”
After an absence of nearly thirty
years from the New York stage the
clown, harlequin, pantaloon and co
lumbine will again make their ap
pearance In this great production,
which will be most magnificently stag
ed and employ a company and stage
staff of over 800 people. Klaw & Er
langer will utilize only the scenery,
costumes and some mechanical effects
from Drury Lane, providing much
that Is new. John J. McNally has
written an entirely new book and Cole
and Johnson have provided an origi
nal musical score.
Thd* mere mention of the . name
"Humpty Dumpty” In this country re
calls memories of George L. Fox, Tony
Denier, Robert Butler, James 8. Maf-
fet, Edwin Croueste, Charles Laurl,
John Foster, Thomas E. Miaco, Geo.
D. Melville, Fanny Herring, who ap
peared as a female clown , Geo. Caron,
the Hanlons and George H. Adams,
who styled hlmselt “Grimaldi” Adams,
all of whom gained fame as comlque:
In whitened face and motley dress.
Fox and Denier are undoubtedly the
most fanjous clowns fn America!
stage history, especially the former,
for time has not faded the memory of
his genius, but rather has cast a halo
about It.
As many young actors have aspired
to portray great dramatic characters,
so have several young men aspired i
the fame of Fox and Denier. Two
these, William C. Schrode and Jamei
A. Rice, who have made a remarkab!
reputation as chalk-face comedia
considering there has been no con* pi
cuous vehicle provided for the explot
tatlon of their class of stage work In
many years, have been engaged
play Humpty Dumpty and Humpty
Dumpty** brother In Klaw St Erlang
er’s coming production. Mr. Hchrode
is a pupil of the Hanlons. Mr.
Is a graduate of the circus to'vaudl
ville, where he has been a strong cajd*
for several years. With “Humpt;
Dumpty.” one Instantly recalls the
harlequin, pantaloon aqd columbine. I White Warrior,’'
In the interpretation of which many | 'The Four Lovers,
known, like W. H. Bartholomew, Har
ry Hunter nnd Walter A. Gerard.
Howard Prevost, Mr. Rice’s partner
in vaudeville, will bo the harlequin In
Klaw & Erlnnger’a production, J. II.
Powers will 1 play the pantaloon and
Nora Barony will be the columbine.
The production which Klaw Sc Er
langer will make at the New Amster
dam theatre will mark a new era in
pantomime in America. There will
vast difference between it and
the production of “Humpty Dumpty”
made by George L. Fox ut the old
Olympic theatre in New York in 1868.
More Qian $160,000, was expended on
the production at Drury Lane, nnd
Klaw Sc Erlnnger will expend fully
$60,000, in adapting it to the American
stnge. While trick scenery was used
by Fox and Denier In their produc
tions, then considered very elaborate,
all the great resources of advanced
stagecraft have been brought to bear
In preparing for the coming produc
tion. Thq magnitude of the scenic and
mechnnJcal portion of this production
may, perhaps, bo appreciated when the
statement is made that more than 200
stage machinists, property men, stage
clearers and electricians will ho re
quired to work tho piece. Eighty-
four men alone will be employed in
working the traps, the trick scenery
and the mechanical devices.
In addition to the four famous pan
tomimic figures above referred to, an
other groat pantomime character will
be Introduced by Arthur Conquest, the
son of George Conquest, once a great
ncrobat and aerlalist at the Theatre
Royal, Drury Lane, who came to this
ountry many years ago, played a very
successful engagement, and then re
turned to Engiund. The younger Mr.
Conquest will play the part of the
Disappearing Demon, and the antics
between him and the clown will recall
to the minds of some of the very old
theatre goers the. production of “The
Red Gnome and White Warrior,"
which the Ravels originally appeared
In this country and which was sub
sequently presented by Fox and De
nier.
It Is a popular supposition that gen
uine pantomime was brought to this
country by the Ravel family. This is
not the fact. Long before their ad
vent here, a alack rope dancer and
posturlat, calling hlmeelf “II Antonio
Dlavolo,” attempted, with the aid of his
children, to introduce an Italian pan
tomime at NJblo's Garden In New York.
There was also a prior exhibition of
pantomime by Pollchlnelle. Both prov
ed failures.
Ravels were not Italians, but of
French origin. They made their first
appearance In America at the Park
Theatre In New York In 1832. This
troupe consisted of ten performers and
Included Gabriel, Jerome and Jean
Ravel, who nfterwards became very fa
mous In this country. They subse-
juently were seen In Boston and Phll-
idelphla and made a tour of the South
and West, returning to Europe in 1834.
re divided Into three troupes
and three of the brothers went to Lon
don, where they appeared at Drury
Lane for the first time January 6, 1836.
In the following September, they re
turned to New York, where they play
ed from October. 1836, to July, 1837,
making a tremendous success at Nlblo's
Garden. Several of the family who had
remained abroad subsequently came to
America, and from that time up to

In Troy. New York. Denier had
been apprenticed to the Ravels and had
made a great repute as a pantomlm

At first Fox would not listen to De
nier. but finally was Induced to piny
nn arrangement of one or two of the
old Ravel pieces mndb by him. The:io
productions were presented at the old
Chatham Theatre in New York In 1858.
The first was ’Tho Golden Axe and lat
er “Magic Hans.” Jt was at the old
Bowery Theatre that Fox made his
greatest hit In pantomlmo. While as
sociated with J. W.»Lingard In the
lanagement of this theatre, he produc-
il either now or reconstructed panto
mimes called “The House That Jack
Built,” “Old Damn Trot,” “Mother
Goose,” “Little Boy Blue,” “Goody Two

rior,” "Raoul/' “The Schoolmaster,”
Jock nnd the Beanstalk.” "Damo Trot
and Her Comical Cat,” “Jack nnd Jill,
and several others. But ns he never
sed the slightest business ability
he lost money.
Fox’s fame as a clown, the true sue
cesaor of the great “Joey" Grimaldi,
came with his production of “Humpty
Dumpty” at the old Olympic Theatre
on Murch 10, 1868. The piece pas ar
ranged by Tony Denier, who not only
originated many of the Incidents and
designed the mechanical appliances
but appropriated material from th<
old Ravel pieces, which he knew thor
oughly through his long association
with them. The original title was
‘Tom, Tom, the Piper's Bon." John
Duff, the father-in-law of Augustin
Daly, was the manager of- ths theatre.
He declared the title too long and told
Denier to choose a shorter one. The
opening chorus was about “Humpty
Dumpty” sitting on a wall and so
“Humpty Dumpty” was chosen. It
made a big hit and ran 488 times. At
the end of Its run. Fox put on “Hick
ory, Dlckory, Dock.” which Introduced
the Klralfy* to the American public.
Fox aubsequently produced “Humpty
Dumpty Abroad” In 1874 at the old
Globe Theatre and lu May, 1876, put on
“Humpty Dumpty In Every Clime,” his j
last production. His stage'career end
ed In November of that year, when he
became Insane, dying shortly after. He
appeared In all the great cities In
“Humpty Dumpty” nnd mnde a phe
nomenal success. While Fox played
“Humpty Dumpty,” Denier aieo played
the part In various cities and became
widely known as the contemporary of
Fox. Clara Morris acted “Romance,” In
his production of “Humpty Dumpty,”
In Cleveland In 1868.
Fox was wonderfully comic as
“Humpty Dumpty.” It Is a matter of
record that a negro string in the gal-
lery of the old Olympic theatre laughed
so heartily at Fox's antic« that he died
of hysteria. He was truly a Grimaldi.
Like the eld**r “Joey,” he was purely
a pantomime clown, relying mainly
upon hia face for his comply, nnd Ig

Maffetts and the Denlcrs, In their hey
day, from 1833 to 1875, have looked
forward and have seen the wonderfully
lavish npectncular productions now
called pantomimes, which have grown
from year to year from comparatively
Insignificant productions up to those
costing over $100,000, they would have
stood aghast In wonderment. Several
seasons ngo Klnw Sc Erlanger brought
from the Drury Lane theatre In Lon
don nnd produced nt the Broadway
theatre In New York “The Sleeping
Beauty and tho Beast.” Up to that
time It was the greatest spectacle that
had ev6r been seen In this country and
created a tremendous sensation, run
ning for thirty consecutive weeks at
the Brondwny theatre to reroipis of
oyer hulf a million dollars. This pro
duction rnvlvod Interest III pantomime,
or spectacle, In America, nnd sines that
time every production of this character
which Klaw Sc Erlanger have presented
has attracted great attention.
Their coming production of "Humpty
Dumpty” will not only posses* the In
terest of reviving the clown nnd his
collengues, who have not been seen on
the stage In any Important production
for nearly thirty years, but It will far
surpass In magnificence of costuming,
gorgeous ness of scenery nnd elabo
rateness of electric and mechanlcnl ef
fects anything that has ever been con
ceived In this country. When Klaw &
Erlanger built the New Amsterdam
theatre, the statement was mnde that
they had provided dressing room ac
commodation u for 700 jM-ople. There
was then a quiet laugh among the
wiseacres of Broadway, who could not
conceive of any possible reason why
such accommodations as these should
he provided. When the curtain rises
on the performance of “Humpty
Dumpty" at the New Amsterdam. No
vember 14, they will readily understand
why such dressing rooms were> In
stalled Id this theatre, as they will be
taxed to their utmost.
Klaw Sc Erlanger have engaged an
extraordinary company to appear In
this production, not only from the
standpoint of numbers, but also In Im
portance. The leading characters will
be played by William O. Hchrode,
the clown; George Schiller, Frank
Moulan, John McVeigh. James A. Rice,
Howard Prevost, J. H. Powers, Nora
Barony, Nellie Daly, Maude Lillian
Rcrrl, Arthur Conquest, Fredericks
