STILL A DRAW
"BELLE OF NEW YORK" STILL BEING PLAYED OLD FAVOURITE RETAINS POPULARITY Like the modern matron as shown in revues, "The Belle of NeW York!' grows livelier with increase of age, writes a critic in the "Daily Mail." More than a dozen years elapsed between the first and second revivals now the piece is only absent from the West End for two or three years at a tirtih. Since June, 1914, it has been staged at the Strand, the Lyceum, Daly's and the Winter Garden. It is playing its latest visit to town at the Garrick, where the run began receritIy. Very "pop'ular" prices shouid add to its appeal. The part of Violet Gray, the Salvation Aririy lass, is again taken by Miss Kathleen Burgis. Ichabod is played by Mr. George Morgan (who understudied both Mr. Grossmith and Mr. Coyne during the run of "No, No, Nanette.") MisS' Bertha Riccardo makes one of the outstandling sucCesses of the preent production as. Fifi. This role is always attractive, since Fifi's songs are the best in the score.
