Ushers go, but the writers are the stumbling
block. No one could ever tie them up, and a
new one coming to the front with a hit might
upset the entire outfit. The composers are the
source of supply, and unless they are tied up no
combination will work, no matter what might be
the capital. I should like nothing better than to
have such a trust materialize. I would go into
business for myself quicker than a wink and

"The White Chrysanthemum," music by How-
ard Talbot, and "The Orchid," music by Ivan
Caryll and Lionel Monckton, are two of the
Chappell productions, which "made good" in
Philadelphia. "The Orchid" is positively the fin-
est production, it is said, the Shuberts have ever
put on the stage, and it is brimful of charming
musical numbers. The song hits of the play are:
"I Must Propose to You," "I Don't Want the
Dark," "Come Along with Me," "Promenade des
Anglais," "Peru," "Little Chimney Sweep" and
"Liza Ann." "The Orchid" ran for two years at
the Gaiety Theater in London. The "White
Chrysanthemum," produced under the direction
of Thomas W. Ryley, is also a charming musical
play, with Japanese stage settings. The song
numbers in it that are very successful are: "The
Butterfly and the Flower," "You Can't Please
Everybody Always," "The Love of a Maid" and
"Oh, Wandering Breeze." "The Orchid" made its
