Jesse Lasky, who bravely assumes the responsi-
bility for the production of that heartrending
vaudeville tragedy known as "A Night on a
House Boat," has redeemed himself in his latest
vaudeville offering, "The Love Waltz," which re-
ceived its premiere at the Keith & Proctor Fifth
Avenue Theater last week. As a matter of fact,
the success of Mr. Lasky's playlet is altogether
due to the enormously successful waltz, "Quand
l'Amour Meurt" (Love's Last Word), by Octave
Cremieux, which is used throughout the forty-five
minutes of its presentation, as the motif. Taken
all in all, there is some doubt as to who to com-
pliment on the production—Messrs. Chappell, who
publish the waltz, or Mr. Lasky, who furnishes
the costumes. As M. Cremieux is receiving large
royalties for his number, he will no doubt regard
our compliments as unnecessary-
