DROPPING OSCAR’S PLAY.
Mr Leslie, Rose Coghlan’s manager, has dropped Oscar Wilde’s play, "A Woman of No
Importance."
Detroit, April 6 — Mr. Leslie, manager of Miss Rose Coghlan, who has been playing Oscar Wilde’s "A Woman of No Importance" here this week, was asked last evening by a representative of the united press if the play would be shelved because of the scandal affecting Wilde. He said it would be impossible, under the contract to take Wilde’s name off the play bills and out of the advertisements of "A Woman of No Importance," and therefore it had been decided that the play should be taken out of Miss Coghlan’s repertoire.
