“Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall.”
Government censorship In England la
a good deal more serious a matter than
free-born American cltixena are apt to
think It is. Ernest Shipman, the New
York theatrical manager, is now in a
position to testify to this fact if a docu
ment recently received from London la
>vhat It purport* to be.
Mr. Shipman states that it is a docu
ment from the office of Lord Chamber-
lain, the British official censor of stage
plays in England. The text of the doc
ument seta forth that ’’Dorothy Vernon
ol Haddon Hall," the piece founded on
Mr. Charles Major’s novel of the agme
title and In which Miss Laura Burt
and Mr. Henry Stanford appear at the
Grand Monday and Tuesday nlghta and
Tuesday matinee, cannot be produced
In Great Britain and Ireland or any of
his majesty’s dominions, unless certain
passages objected to by Lord Chamber-
lain "be expurgated."
The story of the play deal* with In
teresting episodes of the reign of Elisa
beth, Queen of England, and Intro-
duces very attractively the character
of Mary, Queen of Scot*. Lord Cham
berlain apparently thinks some of the
Incidents throw a rather too lurid light
on royalty.
The peculiar feature of the case Is
the fact that the play had already hod
one performance in England for copy*
wrlght purposes nnd was really II-
cen*ed by Lord Chamberlain, previous
to which the customary two copies
were deposited for the libraries.
Evidently the reader of plays In Lord
Chamberlain's office bud failed to read
the manuscript carefully, and a second
perusal brought to light the passages
objected to. The English right* to the
pluy had Already be.»:i disposed of to
Fred Terry and Julia Xollxon, who, If
It cannot be put on, will have to suf
fer, a fact which served to lessen Mr.
Shipman'* apprehension when he first
heard of the Lord Chamberlain
clslon.

Miss Annie Rasseir* appearance In

woman Is not • without precedent,

For 4'euturles mother* have Insisted that
there I*. In oil the work), nothing more
beautiful than little children. When they
have found It npproplate to compare the
eyes of their children with stars nnd their
skin with the leaves of roses, they have
done so In order, to flatter the stars nud the
rose*.
Mothers would never stop If one were to
ask them to go over the entire rosary of
charms of their children; the plump little
feet, the snow-white shoulder*, the golden
hair, the Muilllng mouth and the little dim
ple* flint seem made to be kissed.
It is not mother love which has made
them blind. The little face., the soft body
of tbelr babies are really things of beauty,
and after the artists have shown us the
beauty of children In their Cupids, now
come the scientists and anthropologists sud
prove poaltlvcly and conclusively wlint the
mothers have proclaimed ages ago.
The reasons for the beauty of children
ore welL supported lu nature. Every healthy
child must, from more physiological rea
sons. be more heantful than the adult. The
clearness of the (complexion, the freshness
of the skin, the elasticity of the flesh are
meric physical phenomena. In children tlte
processes of reuewal of the tissue* take
place much more energetically than In
grown people. The blood, whose course of
circulation is shorter, performs Its task In

For this reason the eys, which appear

these which make' the eye* seem large.
Now as to the expression of the eyes,
which always *eem to reflect good humor
and Joy; the child derives this from its own
soul.
The child Is a being made for Joy. Joy
Is the very foundation of childhood’* psych
ology. One only needs to watch children
to discover how carefully they avoid any
thing which may cause annoyance nnd pain
and how eagerly .they seek anything that
gives them nit opportunity for Joy.
No one understands better than the child
to derive pleasure from the ordinary oc
currences In life, eating, walking, dressing;
no one Is more ready to spend the whole
time to piny; no one Is more proue than
tho child to take part In any enjoyment;
even in one which It does not understand.
For this reason the child laughs when It

what caused the laughter.
Thla love of joy which Is apparent la nil
children, reflects Itself In the expression of
their faces and their eyes.
Also the mouth Is In children more beau

W# often wonder when we see how the
mouth of a child which we think beautiful

Apropos of that I may be permitted to
mention a personal Incident. A friend 1 of

"Tha Squaw Man."
Edwin Milton Hoyle’s great play
Western life, "The Squaw Man," come*
to the,Grand Friday and Saturday next
direct from Its remarkable run of six
months at Waltack’s Theater In New
York, where It played to over 300,000
persons. This piece has been spoken
of a* the closest approach to the tr
American play that ha* yet been given
to tho stage, nnd it* strength and truth
In the display of human emotion has
been the subject of discussion to a
greater extent than any other produc
tion made this season. There is a
charm about It that I* positively en
trancing, for the character* are gath
ered from many land* and from many
part* of the country', vet the whole Is
artistically bfenoed, and the story
“Tom, Dick and Harry."
What promises to be one of the real
hit* (rf the season will he thl* week’s
offering at the Bijou In the engagement
of Bickel, Watson and Wrothe in their
very amusing musical melange entitled
"Tom, Dick and Harry." •
To outline the plot of thl* mu*lcal
farce without going Into the laughable
situation* incidental to it would seem
plain and commonplace. Suffice It to
*a;,’ that Dutch, Bum nnd Irish, the
comedians, get mixed up In military' af
fairs when they wander on to the pa
rade ground nt West Point, and. being
mistaken for secret service men, are
given several commission* that they
don’t want very badly, because their
lives are endangered. They My away
from there to the Islund of Port
O'Domingo In a Hying buttery, w^ilch
Colonel Bluff ha* invented and w hich is
stolen by a senorlta from the island
with their assistance.
Summing It up in n few words, “Tom,
Dick and Hurry” Is two hours and u
half of constant laughter.
