Hisaffairs, moreover, began to take on a desperate aspect; the seasonthreatened to be a ruinous failure, and he had no play ready tosubstitute for "Naughty Anthony. " Some time before a friend had senthim Mr. Long's book, but he had carelessly tossed it aside. In hisstraits it came under his eyes again, and this time he saw a play init--a play... and a promise of financial salvation. It was late at nightwhen he read the story, but he had come to a resolve by morning and inhis mind's eye had already seen his actors in Japanese dress. The dramalay in the book snugly enough; it was only necessary to dig it out andmaterialize it to the vision. That occupation is one in which Mr. Belasco is at home. The dialogue went to his actors a few pages at atime, and the pictures rose rapidly in his mind. Something differentfrom a stockinged leg now! Glimpses of Nippon--its mountains, waters, bridges, flowers, gardens, geishas; as a foil to their grace and color the prosaic figures of anaval officer and an American Consul.
