BY JOSEPHINE ORO. 

Klrke La Shelle, the manager, ta well 
known to be a man of keen observation and 
of very direct speech. An Illustration of tbla 
le related of him by an actor who wae In his 
employ. The incident happened abont the 
middle of the theatrical season, when the 
actor's contract with the manager called for 
about four months mora of bis services, 
though not In a very Important part Mr. 
Le Sbelle could easily have replaced the actor 
with another aa competent, though the latter 
possibly Imagined himself Indispensable. 

The actor bad a most tempting oppor- 
tunity of making another engagement at 
doable the salary and signing for two years. 
Realizing that if be gave bla two weeks' 
notice tinder existing conditions, he could 
never be sure of again playing under Mr. 
La Sbelle's management, he was advised by a 
friend to go to the manager and state to him 
the exact facta of his case and rely on get- 
ting an amicable release from his contract 

His part. In one of the "Arizona" com- 
panies, did not call for any display in up to 
date dress and, personally, be was known to 
be almost aa careless off the stage. On the 
morning of his call at the manager's office 
bla appearance, which Mr. La Shelle's quick 
eye noted, might have been Improved by the 
vigorous contact of a brush upon his clothing 
and shoes. 

After explaining that be had received a 
good offer for the rest of the season and the 
whole of the following and that the monetary 
offer waa also a good one and that he would 
very much Ilka to accept It, though he would 
throw it over if Mr. La Sbelle would not re- 
lease him, he concluded, saying: 

"There's the case aa It stands— I'll leave It 
to you aa what la beat for me." 

Tilted back In bla office chair Mr. La 
Sbelle, who had been calmly listening to the 
actor's explanations, at the same time re- 
garding bis careless appearance, made no Im- 
mediate reply, when the actor, a trifle in- 
sistent, went on: 

"Now, Mr. La Sbelle, if you were placed 
In the same position — If 
you stood In my shoes — 
what would you dor 1 

"I'd blade them," 
said La Shells, with 
cool emphasis, "and 
then I'd go and sign 
with the other com- 
pany." 



A popular vaudeville 
performer tells the fol- 
lowing story, which be 
considers a joke on bla 
powers of attraction aa 
a lecturer. He waa one 
of several who donated their professional 
services for the entertainment of the pris- 
oners in a jail of one of the towns In which 
they played. 

After the short performance, which was 
apparently enjoyed by the Imprisoned audi- 
ence, the actor, with two or three other*, 
decided to go over the prison. Passing along 
one of the corridors he waa baited by a voice 
from .one of the cells, exclaiming : 

"Bay, Cully, that was a good turn you did 
—I used to do aa good as that myself." 

"Why I" exclaimed the actor, "were yon 
ever on the stage !" 

"Well, I had a good job with the circus 
'till the boose got hold of me, and I went 
from bad to worse, when I landed here." 

After listening to the story of the man's 
downfall, the sympathetic vaudevllllan drew 
closer to the bars across ths door of the cell 
and delivered a few words of good advice, 
with which the cell inmate seemed to be 
greatly Impressed. Aa he waa about to de- 
part, the prisoned exclaimed : 

"Don't go yet, pardl Just give me a few 
more tips, will your' 

The actor, pleaaed with the reception of 
bis little lecture, and with the thought that 
hla advice might be some comfort to an ex- 
brother actor, followed It up with additional 
counsel. To this the man with an Intent ex- 
pression., on . bla face, pressed against the 
oars and only a few Inches from that of the 
actor, listened attentively. 

When the latter made another movement 
aa If to join hla friends, who were about to. 
leave the- corridor, the prisoner, with tear 
Ailed eyes, begged him to stay a moment 
longer and give at least a few more words of 
good •.advice. 
"I can only repeat what I've already said," 



replied the actor, deeply flattered and hon- 
estly thankful that any word of his might do 
some little good. 

"Tell it all over again," exclaimed the 
prisoner pleadingly, "and come nearer so that 
I may not miss a word." 

After talking for a minute or two longer 
he noted that the man gave a algb of ap- 
parent contentment and satlafactloa, 
• "And now," he continued, "I've got to go, 
but I'm awfully glad that any words of mine 
have done yon any good, my friend, and " 

" 'T wasn't your words that did me good," 
interrupted the prisoner, " Twas your orrotA. 



stepped out to the entrance of the hall to 
get a breath or two of fresh air. Seeing him 
there, a woman who lived on the opposite 
side of the street crossed It, and addressing 
him, said: 

"It's a vary hot night, Isn't It?" 

"Very," assented the manager. 

"We didn't aea many go In to the show 
tonight," continued the woman. 

"No," said Mr. Donnelly, "we haven't a 
very full house." 

"That's the finest alngln' we ever heard," 
she went on ; "at least what little we can hear 
of It. It's a pity to waste It all on the few 




"Do yon think we will do much business 
tonight I" waa Stokes' next question. 

"No, I don't," replied the man, "I've an 
Idea that the buslnesa down at the marry go 
round Is a-goln' to kill yours."

A name known to every singer . on the 
vaudeville stage la that of Wltmark, and 
etch member of that successful Arm la per- 
sonally known to moat of them. Isidore, who 
Is the acting head of the' company, applies 
himself altogether too close to 'business for 
the good of bis health— that It, according to 
the opinion of hla brothers' Julius and Jay. 

"He sticks to hla desk like a barnacle and 
never ltaves.lt" remarked Jay, "unless we 
pry him loose and force him to go on a vaca- 
tion." ■ ■ 

His one favorite diversion, however, la the 
alot machines and whenever the brothers suc- 
ceed In directing his attention to one of these 
they are aura his busy brain la resting and Is 
not employed on matters relating to the busi- 
ness. 

The other day, coming up from, the Wlt- 
mark Summer home at Arverne,' Julius aad 
Jay were importuning their brother to take 
a little rest before the buay season abould 
set Id. . 

"You're looking thin, Is, and you're losing 
flesh right along," commented Julius, 

"lea," quickly added Jay, with a readiness 
that aroused suspicion of a prevloua under- 
standing between them, 

"Nonsense," demurred Isidore, "here's a 
weighing machine— let's see what It says 
about my weight." 

The machine registered 1B8 the first throw, 
and Isidore smiled triumphantly. 

"Pahawl that Isn't enough for a man of 
your height," objected his brother. 

Prompted by another penny the machine 
raited the regletered weight to 100. 

"There I how's that?" demanded Isidore, 
"I've gained two pounds while just standing 
here and If you'll get me a dollar's worth of 
pennies I'll promise to grow to 200 pounds, 
to keep you fellows from worrying— that Is, 
If my weight la all that's troubling you."

ON TUB INSTALMENT PLAN. 



I haven't had a drink since I was pinched, 
two months ago." 



The minstrel company which Tom McKenna 
represents recently cloaed Its nine weeks' 
Summer season. It must be confessed tbat 
buslnesa on some of the hottest nights, in 
small town halls, wsa not more than could 
be well handled. 

On the last night, which had been hotter 
than ail tbe others, there was a very small 
attendance — not more than $25 In the box. 
After tbe opening medley, which received an 
encore, Mr. Donnelly, one of the company, 



that's In there. Do you mind opening tbe 

windows?" 



At another place, whtre the rain was pour- 
lag down In torrents when the company ar- 
rived, Mr. Stokes, the manager, sought out 
tbe manager of the "hall," and, with the 
hope that the weather might permit of • 
street parade, said to tbat personsge: 

"How about tbe rain— do you tblnk It will 
stop?" 

"Don't It always stop V exclaimed tbe man- 
ager, In a tone that abowed be thought 
Stokes bad asked a foolish question. 



Jfr«. Droicne.— "Ob, what lovely wedding 
presents I Such beautiful silverware and 
such rare china! Wasn't It nice to gat 

tuch presents?" 

"Mrs. Oreene.— "Yes, It waa; but" wa" are 
now beginning to pay for them on the In- 
stalment plan." 

Urt. Browne.— "Pay for them?? On tbe 
Instalment plan? Why, Mrs. Oreene, what 
do you mean?" 

Un. Orrett. — "Why, tbe young people 
who gave us wedding presents are getting 
married, and we have to send them wed- 
ding presents." — Sovemlcr Upplncott'i.

THE NEW YORK CLIPPER. 



September 3. 



OCR LONDON LETTER. 
(WOM OOT 0W1« COIMflFOXDINT.) 

Clipper Bureau, 

48 Crteboomf Street, 

Leicester Sqnarr, 
London, W. C. 
Aug. 18. 
At U natural the week which will probably 
be recorded at the botUit of the year bas 
been the leaat active In the matter of 
theatrical bnalnett. At none of the half 
doien or so ot the Weatend theatres which 
remain open haa there been anything like 
a novelty presented, nor does It seem likely 
that any will be forthcoming much before 
the end of the month. The first manage- 
ment to announce a definite date for the 
resumption of Its operations la that of 
Messrs. Harrison A Maude. Their start will 
be made Aug. 80, with a new farce, "Beauty 
and the Barge," In the authorship of which 
Louis Parker baa collaborated with W. W. 
Jacobs. This play will be produced at the 
New Theatre, aa the Haymarket Is under re- 

Salr, and the cast will consist of Cyril Maude, 
essle Bateman, Mrs. Calvert, Adela Measor, 
Kenneth Douglas, E. Maurice. Marsh Allen, 
Robaon Volpe and Lennox Pawle. 

Another date fixed la that of the reopen- 
ing of the Bt James, wblcb la announced 
by George Alexander for Saturday, Sept 8, 
the production being an adaptation, by Syd- 
ney Grundy, of Justin Miles Forman'a rj 
mance, "The Garden of Lies." Quite early 
In September, too, will be tbe start of Ada 
Reeves' season at the Criterion, whence "The 
Duke of Kllllcrankle" la to more on to 
Wyndhatn's Theatre. Miss Reeves' produc- 
tion will be Malcolm Wataon'a comedy, 
"Winnie Brooke, Widow," already tried by 
ber successfully In the provinces. In this 
Henry Vlbart will resume hla original role 
of Dudley Mayne, and the cast will include 
also Eric Lewis and Robb Harwood, Dora 
Barton and Dolores Drommond. 

Messrs. Otto Stuart and Oscar Asche have 
fixed upon Saturday, Sept. 17. for the In- 
augural of their season at the Adelpbl with 
James B. Pagan's drama, "Tbe Frayer of 
the Sword" 

I hear that tbe Brothers Shnbert hare se- 
cured a twenty-one years' lease of tbe New 
Waldorf Theatre which B. 0. Saunders Is 
building In Aldwych and, though they pro- 
pose devoting themselves In tbe first place 
to tbe cult of musical comedy, they will pro- 
vide London playgoers •with more serious 
fare If It seems wanted. Mr. Saunders and 
hla architect (Mr. Bprague) promise that 
the new playhouse will be ready for occu- 
pancy In March, then George Edwardes' mo- 
nopoly will be seriously challenged at very 
close quarters. 

Beerbobm Tree returned to London yes- 
terday morning and commenced rehearsals 
of "The Tempest," which he will produce 
at His Majesty's Theatre on Sept 24. The 
revival promises to be exceedingly pictur- 
esque and some remarkably fine scenic ef- 
fects may be expected. The cast will not 
be definitely settled for some days, but it 
may be mentioned that Viola Tree will be 
the Oriel, Tree Caliban and Lionel Ilrough 
Trlnculo. Other prominent parts will ho 
alloted to Norah Kerln, Margaret Halstan, 
S. A. Cookson, Julian Lestrange, William 
Havlland, Cecil Roae and Louis Calvert. 
Mr. Tree Is determined to make this Sbakes- 
perean revival a memorable production. 

The Royalty reopens at the end of Aug- 
ust with a new play by R. Kennedy Cox, an 
unknown aspirant for dramatic honors. 

No definite date bas yet been mentioned 
for the production of Henry Arthur Jones' 
new comedy with wblcb Arthur Bouchler la 
to reopen the Garrlck, though tbe time will 
probably be not later than tbe end of the 
month. Certain details, however, have been 
given out aa to tbe nature of tbe ploy. Its 
theme It appears 1b hypnotism and Its leading 
character a hypnotist, whose friends arc In- 
volved In tbe most absurd situations by his 
unconscious use of bis powers. Tbe comedy, 
which la in three acts, was first read to tbe 
company on July 20 and Its chief exponents 
will be Violet Vanbrugb, Etblwyn Arthur 
Jones and Nancy Price, Sydney Valentine, A. 
H. Matthews, 0. B. Clarence and Arthur 
Bouchler. 

"The Catch of the Season" Is the title 
which bas been given to tbe new piece Just 
placed in rehearsal at the Vaudeville, by 
Messrs. Gattl and Frohmnn. This play, which 
may be more accurately described as a comedy 
with music than as a musical-comedy, Is the 
work of several authors and composers. The 
plot, based on a Cinderella theme. Is the In. 
ventlon of Captain Marshall. Its development 
and dialogue were undertaken by Seymour 
Hicks and Henry Hamilton. Tbe lyrics are 
by Charles Taylor and the music la composed 
by Messrs. H. E. Haines and Evelyn Baker. 
Tbe caat will be as follows and will not in- 
clude Ellallne Terrlu, whose rest will be pro- 
longed until tbe end of tho year : Duke of Bt 
Jermyns, Seymour Hicks: Lord Dundreary, 
Sam Southern: Lord Charles Yatton, Stanley 
Brett : Sir John Crystal, Charles Daly ; Cap- 
tain Rushpool, F. Wilson; Montagu Hlgham, 
Mervyn Dene; Mr. Gibson. Compton Coutts; 
Lady Caterham, RoBlna Fllllppl; Lady Crys- 
tal, Mollis Lowell : Honorle Bedford, Hilda 
Jacobs; Sophia Bedford, Ethel Matthews, and 
Angela Crystal, Zena Dare. "The Catch of 
th-j Season" la In two acts, which have their 
scenes laid respectively In the town houses 
of Sir John Crystal and tbe Duke of Bt Jer- 
myns, 

One of the greatest successes In Paris last 
season waa the fantastic comedy, "Le Prince 
Consort," by MM. Xanrot and Chancel, a 
work which Ivan Caryll proposes setting to 
music for production In London next Spring. 
George Edwardes, however, Is arranging to 
produce an English version of this amusing 
pises with a company which will Include 
Miriam Clements, Lottie Venne, Aubrey Fitz- 
gerald, Eric Lewis and Leonard Boyne. This 
version will be performed without songs and 
will be produced at the end of September at 
one of Frank Curton's theatres In tbe West 
end, probably tbe Comedy. 

A new curtain-raiser, which has been ac- 
cepted by Messrs. Harrison and Maude, la a 
version ot one of Arthur Morrison's "Tales 
of Mean Streets," In which the author tins 
collaborated with nerbcrt Barjeant It la 
called "That Brute Simmons." 

Taking oa hla text the fact that £1,500 
will have to be spent In altering and re- 
furnishing the interior of the Hnymnrket, 
n Daltv Mall paragraphlst haB been the 
"burden" of West end theatre owners who 
have to lavish sums on modifying and re- 
decorating their property. On the Lvrlc 
we are Informed £10.000 tins been expended ; 
Improvements at Daly's this year hive cost 
£14.000: Mr. Tree's Spring expenditure was 
£4,000. and the Drury Lano directors expect 
their house will cost them £12,000 during 
the next five months. 

Robert Arthur Is now running no less than 
four of our suburban theatres, as he has 
this week added tbe Coronet and the Cam- 
den to the Kennlngton and the Crown, which 
were already under his energetic control. 

Sir Charles Wyndham has Just accepted 
from R. Hornlman a new four act comedy 
railed "Bellamy the Magnlflelent." 

Jesse Spnrnw has been appointed mana- 
ger of the Granville, Walham Green. We 
must be prepared to seen business at Ibis 
establishment on the up grade. 

Next Monday Chnrlea Morton celebrates 
his eighty-fifth birthday. 

Thanks to that excellent arrangement the 
sliding roof, the Tiomlon Pavilion haa man- 
aged during the heat of the past week to 
keep Its temperature down to a mlxlmum 
of <<<1 degrees. Consequently It hns earned 
Its right to be called one of the coolest 
places of amusement In London. 

"Anona" was sung for the first time In 
London last Monday at the Empress, Brix- 
ton, by Mark Leslie, an English singer ot 
American coon tonga. This gentleman It 



getting: rapidly popular In London, and I 
expect to see him In tbe front rank of 
"twinkling stars." 

Bnrle and Earle are at the Palace this 
week with their excellent bsnjo act I bare 
never hesrd them to better advantage, and 
I tblnk tbe act Is now st tbe height of Its 
entertaining power. They have the star 
turn at the Palace. I understand they will 
appear on tbe Keith circuit In America short- 
ly- 

Burke, Andrus and Frisco are on tbe tame 
bill. Tbelr act never teems to grow stale 
and that finest of the old school of perform- 
ers It, If anything, more Juvenile than ever. 

During a visit to the Empire the other even- 
ing I had tbe pleasure of seeing a couple of 
American acts making striking hits. These 
are Sam Elton and T. Nelson Downs. 

Heeley and Meeley are at tbe Empire, 
Stratford, this week, on tbe Stoll tour. Tbelr 
act Is seen to great advantage and I cannot 
describe It better than by quoting our Influ- 
ential contemporary, Die Era — ''Wonderful 
somersaults are an outstanding feature of tbe 
comedy acrobatic tbow given by Heeley and 
Meeley, wbo Include many original devices for 
the creation ot mirth In their much applauded 
act" 

Lowell and Lowell, who have been doing 
well on tbe continent, return to England for 
tbe big Shrewsbury Flower Show, one of the 
biggest outdoor fetes In England. 

Herbert Lloyd bas arrived on the continent 
and appears to have had a highly successful 
open'ng at the Scala Theatre, Copenhagen. 
A special booklet Issued by the bouse glvees 
an account of his career, which, unfortu- 
nately, I am unable to read, and alto tome 
humorous matter In English. 

Will Bcott has Joined W. C. Flelda. I re- 

Set to hear that Ed. Roach bas had an at-

lery to parquet and late comers were satis- 
fied to get even standing room, which has 
been the case ln every place this company 
has appeared alnce the opening. At Zanes-

was at a premium during the entire four per- 
formances. The beautiful and costly velour 
first part, Illuminated by more than one 
thousand colored Incandescent lights and cal- 
cium effects, was pronounced a thing of 
beauty. Tbe vocal portion of the entertain- 
ment, under the direction of Harry Lelghton, 
scored heavily, while the numbers In tbe olio 
were enthusiastically received, likewise the 
terpslchorean movements by Gov. Bowen and 
the "Dancing Dandles." Marvelous Marseilles, 
tbe European athletic contortionist, has mys- 
tified the multitudes and several physicians 
have endeavored to get permission to make 
an examination of this mysterious phe- 
nomena. Fred P. Russell received numerous 
encores with his budget of new songs and 
sayings; Gov. Bowen s negro dialect, Jno.

Knetzger and his hoops and clubs, Master

acrobatic number is uncommonly clever and 
Clnrton and Terre do a singing and talking; 
act far above the average. , The olio closes 
with Garden and Somer's striking xylophone

Than Scorned" made a good Impression last 
week. It is a strong and well constructed 
melodrama and was .well acted and finely 
staged. The play within the play, which forms

elty. Brothers Byrne, In "New Eight Bells," 
Is the next- attraction. - ■ ■

Majestic Theatre (John S. Flaherty, 
manager). — "The Isle of Spice," a 'musical 
play, in three acts, book and lyrics by Allen 
Lowe. and Geo. E. Stoddard, music by Paul 
Bcblndler and Ben Jerome, .was given Its 
Arse metropolitan presentation Tuesday 
evbnlng, Aug. 23. B. C. Whitney has 
put forward the production and gave It the 
Initial public offering at his Detroit, Mich., 
theatre, the Detroit Opera House, on Jan. 6, 
lost Reversing the usual order of things, 
the chorus won first honors and the princi- 
pals, frightfully handicapped with generally 
dull and lifeless material In dialogue 'and 
situations, contributed work which was not 
as productive of resulta as their talent 
merited. Gns Soblke, who staged the work, 
was praised on all sides and he fully merited 
all the encomiums heaped upon him, for 
the dancing and Incidental work of the 
chorus nna every stage picture proved a 
particularly novel and satisfying feast for the eye. The 
of 'rapid- music was In the main very good, and several 
of the numbers reared themselves head and 
.shoulders above .their fellows and won so 
many encores that they were then and there 
credited with "whistling" popularity by the 
prophets. "The Witches," which scored 
more because of the sprightly, novel and 
generally pleasing work of the chorus glrla 
rhun from its musical merits, and "Peggy 
Brady," a little gem In Its line, were tho 
two greatest applause winners, and they 
were redemanded times unnumerable. The 
book tells the story of Bompopka, sixty- 
sevtDtt king of Nii-obar, an Island In the 
China Sea, North of Japan. According to 
the laws of the Island, when the Queen Con- 
sort reaches tin age of thirty she Is sent to 
the Tomb of Silence. The first queen is al- 
ready there, nnd the second has but three 
weeks longer to share the throne. At this 
interesting stage a war balloon from a V. 
S. crulrer hinds on the Island with, two 
sailors, who Immediately start to make 
thlugs lively. The natives consider them 
messenger s from the son, and high honors 
arc showered upon them. The King, who 
18 a bankrupt, believes they will produce un- 
limited wealth, considering them to be wiz- 
ards A lieutenant from the warship lands 
on the Island for bis men, meets the King's 
ward, falls In love with her and with the 
final curtain they are about to be married. 
Bocipopku's financial affairs are happily ad- 
jlisted and everything. Is merry. This story is 
told with very little opportunity for the come- 
dluus of tlie production and tho result was 
that Alexander Clark, who played the king, 
was generally too greatly loaded down with 
lK)lnlless lines to score many laughs. Herbert 
Cnwtbornc and GlUicrt Gregory were the 
other two comedians, and tbey rarely broke 
through the haze of nnfunnV complications 
and dialogue Into the light of humor. George 
Fluke and John Hendricks won favor because 
of their vocal abilities and Blanche Buckner 
did creditably with the musical numbers 
.which fell to her lot The chorus, howeyer, 
run away with honors and to spare and tbe 
production Is well worth seeing on account 
of the music and the charming stage pic- 
tures. The cast : Bompopka, Alexander Clark ;

Princess Theatre (Sam S. A Lee Shu- 
bert & Chas. E. Evans, managers) . — The 
spason at this ' house opened auspiciously 
Thursday evening, Adg. £5, with "Jack's 
Little 'Surprise," a farce, 'In three acts, by 
Louis Eagan, in which Arthur Byron ap- 
peared as a star, and which had Its original 
Sroduct'on in New Haven, Monday, Aug. 22. 
ames K. Hackett, under whose management 
the piece was produced, baa selected a com- 
petent cast, and has staged It beautifully. 
The play Is bright, keen, witty and clean 
nnd tbe situations follow one another In 
rapid succession from the rise of the curtain 
to Its fall. The farce Ut well worthy of the 
attention of the public and those delighting 
In the~*llght order of amusement' win feel 
amply satisfied by attending and the work 
will doubtless have a successful run. The 
story bulges on the efforts of a young mar- 
ried man, Jack Van Allen, to take a present 
from Cairo, Egypt, to; New York, and give 
It as aaurbrlae to his wife, who Is also In 
Cairo with him. Tbe relations of the prlncl- 

Sals are strained to tbe divorce. court period 
y the advent .of an Egyptian girl, Flametta. 
who has been rescued from a hard hearted 
Pasha by Bob, Jack's brother-in-law. Having 

f;ot her Into tbe house and finding himself 
table to stir up International complications 
Bob involves Jack In tbe matter, who In 
turn drags In h's father-in-law and his 
friend, Peabody. tbe U. B. .Consul. In tbe 
endeavors of the various seemingly guilty 
ones to get Flametta out of the house, 
she Is piaced In the trunk which was 
to' have contained Jack's Surprise and 
Is unceremoniously hustled off' to the 
steamer for New York. Thu women having 
discovered what (hey tech think Is ;i plot 
ou the part 'of their respective husbands to 

flossess the' Egyptian, watch events, and 
e«rn that she is in the . trunk. Arrived -In

woman, who diirlnu- 11 trip to Russia nome 
eighteen years previous to tlie opcnlm: of the 
play, was arrested us a spy aud : during her 
incarceration was forced to accept the atten- 
tions of a Russian vice admiral, Paul Starko- 
vUeh. She ls'ln.l«ve wltbiAmano Jlnsuki. 
son of tbe Japanese Minister of War. and 
making her escape from Siberia, married 
him. A daughter, Amlda, Is born, who 
Is the child of the Russian. As- tho piny 
opens Starkovitcb is seen in Yokohama, with 
pa per j from the Czar for the arrest of the 
Tigress, whom he eventually learns is tho 
woman he . ruined. .- .She Is . the spy of the 
Japa; through love off the country, bqt more 
from a sense of revenge, for the wrongs and 
outrages perpetrated upon her ana: hers. 
Raymond Grant, a, lieutenant in the V- S. 
N"., .whose ship Is In the harbor, (loves her 
daughter, and Loudon Jack, a facetious war 
correspondent, loves her maid, O-Vone. These 
twoi with Bob, Raymond's brother, take It 
upon themselves to rescue .the persecuted 
woman. Chang Fow, a dignified Chinese 
orScer, workB with Starkovltch for the de- 
struction of Klnume and her husband, both 
of whom he hates; also spying alternately 
for the Russians and the Japs. Starkovltch 
later, learns that. Amlda is his daughter, 
acd his love, for bee- determine* mini to 
save the mother and father. Koji Rickshaw, 
a Jap manservant, to the Countess, is prerjixl 
into service to carry dispatches which will 
set at liberty the two prisoners, and liberate 
Raymond, who Is Imprisoned in ft fort on the 
Vain River. The latter Is accomplished In a 
stirring manner at the risk of his life and 
the--Jtast act occurs In St. Petersburg, where 
tbe ..clemency of the Czar, is obtained for 
the prisoners, and Chang Fow sent to a well 
deserved fate. The piny is Intensely melo- 
dramatic nnd high strung, but it has all 
tbe elements of financial success, as attested 
by th« capacity house which attended. Cur- 
tain calls were numerous, and the gallery 
whistled and cheered continuously. Mr. 
^Ceogh has spared no expense in the staging 
and .costuming, which was magnificent, the 
first four acts presenting a series of gorgeous 
pictures. Fanny Mclntyre, In the title role 
was earnest and made a very striking 
appearance in her various gowns. Her work 
was flrey and animated throughont. Mar- 
lon Shirley, as Amlda. was charming In; her 
little Japanese manner -and fitted tbe. part 
well, and Bijou Washburue was amaslng as 
the maid. .Al. Phillips was Impressive as 
/Raymond Grant and read his Ones under 
standingly. Fred C. House, as London Jack, 
and Bobbie Barry, as Bob, were active In tbe 
various disturbances and caused many 
laughs, M. J.-. Jordan gave another of his 
goict, masterful pieces ef Chinese character 
fvork as Chang Fow- and succeeded in hold- 
Jng the attention of the audience through- 
out. Theo. Kehrwald, a Shinto ' Priest,' Is 
deserving of special mention for bis, quiet 
dignity and perfect control in the more in- 
tense scenes. Though not of large physique 
be was commanding at all times. John 3. 
FarrelJ was exceedingly good- as the. heavy 
a in 



of Flametta. During all this time Bob, who marvelous' In the part of the servant,' Roil 

Is In reality the.'gullty party. 1s allowed, to Si ^ 

go free, on bis statement to"- the women that J 
he knows nothing, of the affair, and his 



threats to the men If they attempt to con- 
nect him with it. Eventually, matters are 
straightened, the wives and husbands be- 
come reconciled, Bob Is discovered In bis 
efforts to esenpa nil hlnmc, and Flametta 
Is returned to -the Paslm. -Arthur-' Byron 
bore the burden of tho perforninnec, and 
was excellent. throughout, and his aupilfroiit 
and natural manner were delightful. Ho won 
many of the luughs of.theeveningand received 
an enthusiastic welcome. Charlotte Walker, as 



Paul Starkovltch, find in Lis repentant scene 
in the third act, and also when ebalned to 
Jbls former enemy on the road "to Siberia, 
nnd again in the Czar's presence, lit 
mon sympathy and unstinted applause. 
Benjamin liornung. us General Amano Jlu- 
eukl, gave one of the most interesting, state- 
ly and virulent performances of the evening, 
and in his conception of the valor, love and 
shrewdness of the Japanese husband aad 
soldier, was almost perfect. T. Tamamoto, 
the . only Japanese actor in the cast, was

ONE OF THE LEADING COMEDY FEATURES IN VAUDEVILLE, 

r 




. MORTON 

A Fellow of Infinite Jest.— NEW YORK WORLD. 






FROM SEPT, II, 1904, TO MAY 22, 1905. 



I 



■J 



His style is distinctly unique and ORIGINAL, and his specialty is 
always varied by impromptu wit, which keeps it ever fresh and in- 
vigorating. Originality in methods, and the EXCLUSIVE USE OF HIS 
OWN MATERIAL, have brought him into a state of prominence as a 
monologue entertainer equalled by few, and EXCELLED BY NO ONE 
IN CURRENT VAUDEVILLE, (New York). 

It is like shaking hands with an old friend to again listen to 
JAMES J. MORTON, who comes out in his street clothing, and talks 
to the people in front, in a natural, unconventional way, that stamps 
him a true comedian. His drollery is captivating, his simplicity 
alluring, his novelty remarkable. (Brooklyn). 

Yesterday was the first time I have ever seen JAMES J. MORTON'S aot in full 
It's a monologue, and one must admit after hearing it, that the man is remarkable in 
many ways; remarkable because there is no sense in what he says; remarkable be- 
oansehe doesn't know half the time what he is going to say; remarkable because he 
can't sing, and sings anyway; remarkable in all because he is the biggest hit of

BY JOSEPHINE OBO. 

It Is a well known fact that most parish 
priests are sealont In their efforts for the good 
of their parishioners and the chnrch they are 
attached to. Those with means to spare are 
frequently approached by the parish priest 
for the benefit of the others who have no 
means, or the church needs a new altar and 



"What! Three dollars to see Dan? I guess 
not — I've seen him for years and never paid 
more'n fifty cents for a sight," remonstrated 
the Irishman. 

"Well, then," said the treasurer, pushing 
the dollar toward Its owner, "stand aside 
and let others buy their seats, please." The 



ting better theatres these days and his new 
play Is a big success." 

"An' what's bis new play}" asked the 
other Irishman. 

"Can't you read the bills?" asked the 
treasurer. 

"Fall an' we don't be a-boddcrln' our- 



throwing down the bills with an sir of resig- 
nation, "the parish priest always gets more'n 
anybody else." 

"What's the play tonight?" asked one 
Irishman of another at they were about to 
enter the theatre where Olga Netheraole wat 



"not for met I'll save my money 'till Jot 
Murphy comet— no one but him can play 
them Irish plays." 

The name of V. F. Mackay la known far 
and wide among the profession and theatre- 
goer!, lie has a big fund of experiences— 
here is one of them that happened while he 
was a young man and during the time when 
the old standby, "Toodles," was popular. 

The leading part was played by a comedian 
who frequently "gagged" bis lines — so much 
so that Mackay had difficulty In coming in 
with his, In which he was letter perfect. 
One night In particular he waa many times 
at a loss, as the comedian gave scarcely a 
proper cue. After the performance the com- 
edlnn taxed Mackay with not knowing bis 
part. 




there are a hundred other calls on the pocket- 
books of those who have them. Thus, It has 
been often said, that this father of his flock 
always has his band held out for contribu- 
tions, which are usually given In the good 
cause without any demnr. 

This readiness was amusingly Illustrated 
one night during Dan Sully's engagement, In 
"The Parish Priest," at the Park Theatre, in 
Boston. 

Two Irishmen approached the box office 
end one of them handing the treasurer • 
dollar, said: 

"Give as a couple of seats to see Dan 
Bully," 

"Three dollars, please," was the reply of 
ttc ticket seller. 



two retired to a corner and discussed the 
situation, returning to the window after the 
crowd had thinned out 

"Hay" said the spokesman, "wbats the 
rayson'o' Dan's price goln' up so high- 
fifty cents ought to be enough." 

"Because," was the answer, "Bully Is get- 



selves wld rcadln' an' wl' the name o' the 
play— we come to see Sully himself act," was 
the reply. 

"Weil, he's plsylng 'The Parish Priest,' 
and It's a dollar and a half each to see him," 
said the treasurer. 

"Ob, that's different," said the Irishman, 



playing an engagement consisting of her 
repertory. The performance of that even- 
ing was "Denlee," and the Irishman pro- 
ceeded to spell to hit friend the name from 
the "three sheet" In front of the theatre. 

"D— «— n— I— s " — 

"Ob, Denis— Is It," Interrupted the other ; 



"You are mistaken, Blr," said the actor, 
"1 do know my lines, but you gave no cues 
tonight" 

"Do yon mean to Insinuate that I don't 
know the parti" exclaimed the comedian, 
ready to take offense. "Why, I've played It s 
hundred times — I know U backward*." 

"That must be the way you played It to- 
night then," said Mackay dryly,

Tbose Interested In baseball will appreciate 
tbe satire of the following, which Francis 
Conlan— he of ready Irish wit— gave voice 
to. It was told of blm by an acquaintance 
who sat beck of this clever player of the 
part, "Ualvollo," as he wss watching a 
game recently with bis friend, Barry Nle-

In consequence he wag not being particularly 
admired by the friends of that team. He had 
ruled out two "runa," much to the disgust 
of these friend*, who aat near the reportera. 
In ahowlng thla they Jeered and called out 
many undesirable names. 

"I say," aald Nlemeyer to Conlan, "these 
remarka are scarcely complimentary to the 
umpire— I'm wondering what will happen If 
they continue and any of hla friends are 
close by." _ , 

"Nothing could happen," said Conlan 

dryly. 

"Why?" aold Nlemeyer. 

"An umpire has no friends," waa the

The close time at the London theatres con- 
tinues, and aeems likely to last for another 
fortnight. There has been absolutely nothing 
doing for the laat week In the way of nov- 
elty and when tbe season starts, as It 
will at the end of the month, It will be 
with quite a burst of new productions. For 
some time It seemed probable that Messrs. 
Harrison and Maude, at the New Theatre, 
would be tbe flrat la the Held with "Beauty 
and the Barge," which has long been an- 
nounced for Aug. 80. Now. however, Ar- 
thur Bourcbler promises Henry Arthur 
Jones' new comedy tor Saturday, 27, and 
rather before that date we may look for "Tbe 
Passing of a Dream," at tho Royalty. Here

There will be no more big theatres erected 
In London after the New Waldorf baa been 
flnlshed, because the majority of the Thea-

advocating two-tier bouses Instead of the 
customary three tlera. W. 0. R. Sprague, tbe 
architect of nearly twenty playhouses in 
London, Interviewed on this Important al- 
teration, says: "Tbe two-tier house has many 
advantages over the three-tier building, as 
those who have visited tbe Camden, Coronet, 
Kensington or Duchess Theatres will ac- 
knowledge, though West-end playgoers have 
not yet hod an opportunity of criticising or 
appreciating the dlflerence. In a two-tier 
theatre the gradients to the circles are less 
than In a three-tier house and, generally

of atnasement enterprises I do not Imagine 
that a more unique trip was ever experienced 
than that recently taken by the advance ad- 
vertising car of the Buffalo BUI Wild West 
Exhibition, which is now touring Scotland. 
It was Saturday morning, Aug. 20, and tbe 
long, white advertising car stood in tbe 
p.tntlon of the Highland Railway, at Inver- 
ness, Scotland, the beautiful Capital City of 
the Highlands. Owing to tbe great Interest 
which Col. Cody's visit has aroused In Scot- 
land, H. H. Gunning, the manager of the 
car, with admirable enterprise, determined 
that the far away towns In the North should 
be dsly Informed of the two days' exhibi- 
tion of the 'Wild West' In Inverness, which 
occurs on Sept. 2 and 3. Formulating his 
plans, he decided to take his car as far as 
Wick, .t fishing village of 8.000 Inhabitants, 
which lies close to John O'Groat's Land, In

Savoy Theatre (Frank McKee, mana- 
ger). — "Mrs. Wlggs of the Cabbage Patch," 
reopened this house on Saturday evening, 
Sept. :i, and signalized on that date its first 
nppearuiice In New York, nfter a season of 
triumph In other cities. It is a three act 
chnracler romedy, dramatized by Anne Craw- 
ford V lex ne i- from Alice Hegan Rice's two 
stories. "Mrs. Wlggs of the Cabbage Patch." 
and "Lovey Mary," and first saw the light 
at the Ocean Pier Theatre, Atlantic City, 
A. J., ou Oct. 1. mi)!!. Anne Crawford riex- 
ner has shown great aptitude la dramatic 
construction In her fashioning of the ma- 
terial at band, for she bas cleverly dovetailed 
the best portions of the two books and weld- 
ed them into a structure of decided stage 
merit with the aid of a bit of Invention of 
her own here nnd there. For example : Mr. 
Stithblns, the Inebriated, Is brought back 
from bis travels In tbe freight car and Is 
made a loyal husband, and Mr. Wlggs, the 
err'ng. returns to the beautifully optimistic 
nnd lovable Mrs. Wlggs and the curtain 
Is -brought down upon a happy reunion all 
around. There nre other deparlures from 
the hooks, nil of which make a better 
version of the story from the standpoint of 
(liniiiiitle art nnd, to the credit of the au- 
thor. It niav be said that a better drama- 
tization could not well be desired. The 
distinct Ive ehnraeter types which made the 
book so Hiiccesful have been remnrkably well 
transferred to mimic life and all stand out 
like the clinrncters of Dickens or Thuckerny. 
It is nothing short of a line sermon to bear 
the frequent sottud philosophical bits 
of optimistic advleo which Mrs Wlggs gives 
to all about her, nor could one's time be 
heller employed In mere entertainment than 
In sitting through the wholesome comedy 
provided by this work, it deserves a long 
and pros|icrouK run here. Madge Carr 
Cook plnyed the sunny, unselfish Mrs. 
Wlggs with an artistic conception of 
the role which brought out every little 
detail of Its interpretation most forcibly 
and she scored an absolute success. Will T. 
Hodge and Helen Lowell, bowever, beld the 
centre of- the stage for comedy honors, and 
their work was clear cut ns a cameo and a 
real delight to all. Mr. Hodge was tbe Mr. 
Htubblns, and he has never done better work 
on our stage. He never oversteptied Into bur- 
lesque or caricature and sustained a consistent 
character sketch delightfully throughout. 
Miss Lowell's make-up wag along tbe Hue of 
caricature, but her acting was screamingly 
and legitimately (unny and she shared the 
laughing honors with Mr. Hodge. Mabel 
Taliaferro was Ingenuous and decidedly capti- 
vating as l,ovey Mary, which brings her 
away from Uie child roles she has been play- 
ing here up to the present. Taylor Gran- 
ville did excellent work as the cripple, and 
Lillian Lee brought by sheer clevernesa of 
acting and make up the rather unimportant 
role of Mrs. Elchorn Into prominence. Anna 
Fields was capital as the German lady. Mrs. 
Schultx, and May McManus, Edith Storey 
nnd Bessy Burt played the "geographical" 
little Wlggs very well. Nora Shelby and 
Thurston Hsll were good In their respective 
roles, and Argyle Campbell played the Im- 
petuous "Billy'' with decided merit. Kd. 
Gillespie and Oscar Engle deserved favor- 
able mention as well. The cast : Mrs. Wlggs,

Daly's Theatre (Daniel Frobman, man- 
peer). — This housi opened the season Thurs- 
day night. Sept. I, with the first American 
production of "The School Girl, ' a musical 
play, In two acts, book by Tsui M. Potter 
ontl Henry Hamilton, and music by Leslie 
ftluart. The piece, wblch Is au admirable 
vehicle for starring purposes for Edna May, 
wns originally presented at the Prince of 
Wales Theatre, lAindon, Eng., Mny 9, 1003, 
and enjoyed a lergthy run In tbe English 
metropolis. The story deals with the ad- 
ventures of Lillian Leigh, a pupil In a con- 
vent school, who endeavors to straighten 
out the love affair of Cicely Marchmont, a 
dear friend, who Is also a stndcut at tho 
convert Cicely loves and Is loved by Ed- 
gar Verne/, a young artist, but her parents 
have decided that she shall marry Sir Orms- 
by St. Ledcer, a middle aged man, for whom 
she does not care. Matters reach a crisis 
when the mother superior of tho convent 
receives word from General Marchmont 
that bis daughter be sent to Paris at 
cme, as r be will be married within tbe 
week to Sir Ormsby. Lillian then decides 
to save ber friend and runB away from the 
convent. She arrives In Paris and flnds her 
way to tbe open stock exchange, where she Is 
mistaken by Peter Overend for the new type- 
writer whom he employed. Overend Is foist- 
ing worthless stock on the market and Lil- 
lian, In her capacity an typewriter. Is able to 
save Sir Ormsby and General Marchmont 
flora heavy financial loss. She thus wins the 
favor of both and Bnnlly tbe love of Sir Orms- 
by. Cicely and Edgar are united and the 
usual happy ending occurs. Miss May is 
supported by an English company, many mem- 
bers of It having Keen with her during tbe 
London run of the piece. The star, herself, 
has never been seen to better advantage, and 
the role could hardly fit her better. She In 
ns demure as of yore and the hearty 
recognition accorded ber for her work 
was well deserved. George Grossmlth 
Jr. In tbe role of sir Ormsby, Fred Wright 
Jr, as General Marchmont and .lames Blnke- 
ly as Tubby Bedford were a trio of come- 
dians It would be difficult to excel. Their 
methods, while entirely different, lira built 
on true comedy lines, are thoroughly legiti- 
mate and It bas been some time since we 
have had the pleasure of seeing three equally 
clever comedians together In one company. 
Constance Hyem made a pleasing Cicely nnd 
Tallcur Andrews sang and acted well. Mil- 
dred Baker proved to possess a pleasing 
voice, which she used to good effect. The

act was a comedy hit of the most 
decided kind. Hermsn Lieb, Florence

work and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Thome also

New Amsterdam Theatre (KlawfcEr- 
longer, managers).— There was no avail- 
able space vacant night of Sept. 5 shortly 
nfter the doors of this beautiful theatre 
had swung outward to usher In the season 
of 1004-fl. As the favorite Rogers Broth- 
ers had been selected to reopen this tem- 
ple ot Thespls, this fact alone was all that 
was required to completely fill the house 
In every part and the audience wns a bril- 
liant one, as well. Mention of the welcome 
accorded to the Rogers Bros. Is superfluous, 
as they hnd been given the welcome hand 
for six previous seasons, and this occasion 
was but a repetition of those gone before. 
Author McNally has taken "The Rogers 
Bros, to Paris'' for tbe first two acts of 
his new comedy, the first scene depicting 
the Bnl Boulller, In the Latin Quarter, which 
nffordB opportunity for the Introduction of 
many bright musical specialties. The 
second act scenes show the gardens 
of the Tnlllerles, the Rue de Rlvoll 
and the Place de la Concorde. Mr. 
McNally bas seen fit to bring us back to 
America for the third and final act, with St. 
Louis as the locality, tbe Bcene supposed to 
be the Hagenbacli Zoo. Mr. McNnlly's story 
permits, as usual, the Interpolation of many 
musical and dancing numbers for which Geo. 
V. iiobart wrote the lyrics, and Max Hoffman, 
the musical director of the company, the 
score. The Rogers Bros, began their tour this 
season at Buffalo, where their present vehicle 
was given its first production at the Star 
Theatre, on Ang. 29. It provides the necessary 
vehicle for lively fun, scores of pretty girls 
In dash and action, music that la catchy, and 
the costuming nnd ensmitiles are simply gor- 
geous. Of tbe Rogers Bros., it Is only neces- 
sary to say that they strlved Just as bard and 
conscientiously as ever to please, and they 
were entirely successful. Next to the Rogers 
Bros., Josle Cohan, of the Cobnn Family, 
easily carried off the honors. The chor- 
uses were excellent. Encores were de- 
manded for all the prluclpal numbers, 
and the seventh sesson of the Rogers 
Bros., was launched most auspiciously. The 
now comedy Is superbly staged, and the 
brothers huve never beer. Been to better ad- 
vantage. The full cast : Rudolpn Kahn, Gus 
Rogers; Adolph Flnklelelner, Max Rogers;

doors, Sept. 6, with a matinee, to a crowded 
house. Bright as the proverbial new pin, 
with an Interior that has been thoroughly 
renovated, with many little Improvements 
added, tending to promote tbe comforts of 
Its patrons, the popular theatre swings into 
line for the season of 1904-5 with the good 
wishes of as royal a cllentelle as any theatre 
In tbe city cau boast. Mr. Williams has re- 
tained his efficient executive staff of last 
season, with William Masaud as business 
manager; Evan Thomas, stage manager; A. 
L. 8eeley, treasurer, and Julius Lenzberg, 
leader of orchestra. Tbe bill presented for 
the opening week was : Helen Bertram (ber 
New York vaudeville debut), whose splendid 
singing caused her to respond to many en- 
cores ; Willy Zimmerman, In his Impereonn

Buggies' son, Harry, bas married Grace's 
sister, first telling her be has never lovecl 
another, but In reality bad had an Innocent 
love affair with Nellie McGlory, sister of a 
ward politician, Andy McGlory, and a tool 
of RuggleB. Elolse and Marietta, proprie- 
tors of a manicuring parlor, bring suit r<, r 
breach of promise against "John B.," us 
Ruggles Is familiarly known, placing the 
case In Colby's hands. Colby also secures 
several love letters from Nellie, handing 
them to their writer, Harry, but she holds out 
one — his proposal of marriage. John B. In- 
sults Grace, white In a rage, and she turns to 
Colby, saying that If he can win the election 
against Ruggles' opposition, be may hope to 
win her. This he does by a cleverly con- 
ceived dodge ; tbe Senate committee stand 
three to three on his election, with Senator 
Hchroeder, a lame, crochety, blne-goggied 
German to bear from. He refuses to vote 
until be sees Ruggles, as he wants to secure u 
hotel license for bis brother's saloon. Colby 
Impersonates the Senator, demands and se- 
cures the signed statement of RuggleB to the 
effect that Scbroeder's brother shall have the 
license. At that moment the genuine Senator 
appears and Ruggles confesses that for the 
first time In his political career he has been 
done, and remarks, as he passes from the room, 
"You're not such a bad fellow, after all," a 
sentiment which the audience held all 
through tbe play. The comedy has much 
to commend It, for there nre mam- 
funny situations and lines, -most of 
which occur hi the second act, which is 
In tbe manicuring establishment, and here 
fun runs riot. After tbe first ten minutes of 
the first act the act'on strikes a good gait, 
which is maintained until tbe finish. Mr. 
Lederer has staged the piece well and the 
second act was a clever presentation of the 
conventional Fifth Avenue manicuring estab- 
lishment Charles Dickson, as Howard Colby, 
was Interesting, earnest and humorous as oc- 
casion demanded and won the anulanse which 
he Justly merited. He was quiet and reserved 
In voire and manner, and was responsible 
for many spontaneous laughs. Ralph Del- 
more was well cast as John B. Ruggles, and 
gave another of his clever pieces of character 
heavy work. George Ober, as Lucas Byng, 
the solicitous old uncle and confidential 
clerk of Colby, who was always being dis- 
charged and reinstated, was unctuous and 
genuinely funny In every move. His actions 
when having his bead shampooed and wrinkles 
smoothed, were ns laughable as anything could 
be. Gertrude Howe and Adele Luhrman, as 
the manicurists, were dainty, fascinating and 
amusing ; Charlotte Townsend, as Grace 
Oelston, was very pleasing In her work, 
though the part afforded no great oppor- 
tunities. Violet Black, as Angela, tbe young 
bride, kept the audience in good humor by 
her extravangances and domineering over her 
meek young pnrtner, Harry Buggies, well 
played by Eugene Shakespeare. Tbe ward 
politician, Andy McGlory, became a verit- 
able gem in the hands of Frank Russell. 
With his one oft repeated word, "Sure," he 
won laughter and sympathy and each time 
the monosyllable expressed much and a dif- 
ferent thought from Its predecessor. Lan- 
sing Rowan, as Nellie McGlory, Andy's sis- 
ter, was delightfully winsome and anneal- 
ing In the second act, but her emotional 
scene, in the th'rd act, was the most 
artistic piece of work of the evening and 
called forth a tumult of applause. Jackson 
White, a tough, but rising ward politician, 
was well played by Geo. It. Averllf, and the 
Senate committee was well bandied by tbe 
remainder of the cast which follows : Lucas 
Byug, George Ober ; Mr. Call, Henry Powers ;

words could be heard In praise of Manager 
Miner's big organization. Nothing prettier

been seen at this bouse In some time. The 
staging and electrical effects, combined with 
tbe excellent work of tbe principals, the 
clever singing and dancing of the chorus and 
the general life, and sparkle of both bur- 
lesques caused them to be enjoyable fro'ii

-farcical romance, In three actB, by nobert 
v, shall. The j>Iay. which was originally 
,,r ml* ml I" teP ii pi Eng., where It achieved 
w ' ml success, deals with the love of the 
i mid' of Kllllcrankie for Lady Henrietta Ad- 
.n.on Ho makes no progress In his love

.TffMtlons four times, only to l.e refected each

»mn at nothing to attain, an end nnd he 
derides to aliduct Lady Henrietta and 
kM her captive In "Crng-o' North," his 
r«Ki!c In the north of Scotland. To 

,irrv out this Jilan he enlists the serviced 
if Mr- Henry ritt-Welby, M. 1'., an Impe- 
cunious hanger on, who la in ova with a 
Mrs Mulhoflsnd, a wealthy widow. Mrs. 
"iitiliiolland was formerly the alliance.! wife 
,)! Welby, hut having discovered thnt he Is 
a fortune hunter she has broken off the cn- 
•TmeniPiit. The Duke and Welby decide that 
Mm MulUollnnd shall go as a chapcrone to 
i arty Henrietta, and tints Bhe, too. . will be 
impelled to capitulate to the one who wishes 
to gain her hand nnd fortune. The abduction 
Id successfully carried out, nnd the two 
ladle* who. owing to the difference In their 
,,,-lal standing, nave hitherto been at dag- 
utrs' points, become warm frlenda when they 
discover the trap they are In. A week passes 
mil the London papers become full of the 
sraudnl In high life. The Duke nnd Welby then 
determine to play their laat card. They have 
milked what they consider signs of weaken- 
ing on the part of their respective Indies, 

The plan la to open the gate which has kept 
ilii'in prisoners nnd give them their freedom. 
Tills they do, but neither of the ladles care 
to take advantage of the freedom offered 
thein. Lady Henrietta acknowledges thnt she 
has learned to love the Duke and Mrs. Mul- 
liolluucl announces that Welby must marry 
her. Thus nil ends well. Mr. Marshall, In 
tills, his latest Btage work, has again proven 
Ills cleverness as a writer. From beginning 
to end the play sparkles with bright lines and 
witty sayings. Capital situations follow each 
other In rapid succession and the curtain de- 
scends on Acts 1 and 2 on happy climaxes. 
In the third act there Is an nntt-cllinax. The 
end of the play Is really reached when the 
Duke opens the gate and offers Lady Hen- 
rietta ber freedom, but 'the nuthor has seen 
At to continue It- for nearly a half hour 
longer before the logical ending Is reached. 
The remedy for this Is an easy matter, 
in: the Inst act Is too long. The play, not- 
withstanding this, Is capital and Is the best 
vehicle Mr. Drew has had In some time. 
In the title role the. star fa nt his best, 
Ills easy methods aptly fitting the character. 
In the early stages he seemed a trifle nervous, 
hut this soon disappeared and his good work 
won for Mm honest recognition. Ferdinand 
tiottschiilk was capitally cast ns Mr. Henry 
I'ltt-Welby, M. P. He hus never done better 
work nnd the npplnuse accorded his efforts 
was little less pronounced than that given 
the star. Two others on whom the favor 
of the audiences was Invlshly bestowed were 
Fanny Ilrough and Margaret Dale, who ap- 
peared, respectively, as Mrs. Mulholland uud 
Ludy Henrietta. The former gave one of the 
best character comedy druwlngs seen on 
the local stage for some time and Miss 
Dale wns convincing as the hard-to-be- 
won young Indy. The other members of 
the cost did all that wns required of them. 
Charles Frohniuu has given the work u hund- 
somo production and there Is little doubt 
that It will have a lengthy run in this city.

work recently shcjwn here, Is a distinct feat- 
ure, nnd by Its cleverness focused the atten- 
tion upon Its work whenever the opportunity 
wns presented for effective efforts In this 
department. One of the several coiainendHule 
musical fentures was a singing und danc- 
ing- number called "Mother Goose," which 
was encored with rlncere enthusiasm bv even 
the first n ght "regulars." There was shown 
a disposition on the purt of the audience 
to treat the production kindly throughout, 
nud the members of the company, who 
worked energetically to Infuse some snap 
Into the piece, were given generous acknowl- 
edgements of their efforts. The humorous 
portions of the work, however, were generally 
lacking, nnd the auditor was compelled to 
seek recompense for their absence la Hie 
songs und Interpolated features. The story 
proved as light as the usual musical comedy 
output of recent \lntngc. and concerned the 
tribulations of one fielnrlch Lemphauscr, 
a Cook « tourist, whose arrival In the country 
or uolong is a most opportune one, from tho 
stnndoplnt of the Itnjah of that place. It 
appears that the royul cook bus Just hecu 
beheaded, and the llajnh Is in n fair way 
to starve. When Helnrlck announces 
that he Is a Cook's tourist, great Joy pre- 
vails, for the native Is not familiar with the 
accepted definition of that phrase nnd Heln- 
rlck Is hurried Immediately to the culinary 
department of the palace. His tribulations 
are then served as the excuse for the subse- 
quent action of the piece. Davo Lewis plavcd 
the unfortunate "Royal Chef," uud worked 
conscientiously to furnish the fun, with con- 
siderable bucccbs. Joseph C. Mlron was capi- 
tal nnd did wonders with a role Hint gnvo 
him mengrc chances, his exceptionally deep, 
full singing voice being ns enjoyable ns of 
yore. The Itnjah wns well plaved and com- 
mendnbly sung by Harry Leone, nnd John 
Fn rk mndc a striking nppenrancc ns u young 
naval officer and played capably. Amelia Stone 
acquitted herself with honors In her vocal ef- 
forts nnd Stella Tracer was most dainty and 
pleasing ns a mnld. Gertrude Mlllinglou, be- 
comingly gowned und endowed by nature wltn 
a very pleasing personality, scored a success 
both In her uctlng and singing. A most 
welcome intcriwlatlon was the American de- 
but of the well heralded Kugllsh singer, 
Ida Hence, who delivered several novel num- 
bers, half recitations und half song. In so 
fascinating n manner that she achieved Hie 
biggest success of the evening. Her work 
has merit enough to stand out amid any 
kind of surroiinoings. for there Is n dis- 
tinctive charm about her method and n <!c- 
inurencss and magnetism In hev pcrKonnllty

Knickerbocker Theatre (Al. Ilayman 
k Co., managers). — Lulu Olaaer appeared as 
the star In a three act, comic opera, "A Mad- 
rap Princess," at the reopening of this houto 
on Sept. 5, giving on that date the first New 
York presentation of the work, which received 
Its Initial production at tho Lyceum Theatre, 
Rochester, N. Y„ on Aug. "J5 last. It la 
founded upon Charles Major's novel, "When 
Knighthood Was In Flower," with Harry 
B. Smith as HbrettlBt, and Lndwlg 
F.nglnndcr na , composer. Charles B. 1Mb 
llnghnm, who presents Miss Glaser under 
his management Hits season, has given 
the work a good production, nnd Judg- 
ing by Its reception on the opening night 
there Is every reason to lielleve .that 
it will be a most remunerative vehicle for 
the display of the star's vlvuclousness nnd 
charms. The music, of which there Is not 
a great quantity, I* generally good nnd In 
one or two Instances paitlculnrly pleasing. 
while the book, which follows Paul Kestrr * 
dramatization quite closely during the first 
and second acta, brings Miss Glaaer almost 
continuously Into view, and gives her rare 
acting opportunities. The third nnd last net 
of this work deviates from the play form 
of the story and brings a pleasing- and 
spirited finale. The acting of Miss Glaser, 
which was always more commendable than 
her singing, quite aroused her moat ardent 
admirers to ecstarv on the opening night, 
for there wns nn effervescence, a spontaneity 
nnd an Impetuousness to It that rode down 
everything and carried the Impersonation 
to complete triumph. In depicting the emo- 
tions of the boydenlsh, spoiled and self 
willed .Mary Tudor, the star rose to greater 
heights of excellence than aho has yet at- 
tained. William Pructtc mode n remarkably 
line King Henry, his splendid singing voire 
uud almost equally good acting making Tils role 
a most agreeable one. Bertram Wnllls acted 
capably and sang most eomroendahly In the 
character of Charles Brandon. Frank Rcieher 
did exceedingly good work as the Jester, nnd 
Honnld McLaren also merited n word of 
praise. The cast : Mary Tudor, Lulu Glaaer :

• The Thurber it Nasher Company, pre- 
senting Florence Hamilton, in "Mrs. 
Jack." at Waltack'a Theatre, opened their 
season at the Broadway Tliealre. last 
evening, lo a crowded house, which thor- 
oughly enjoyed the performance. I'll is 
tWtng ihc first year of the company, the 
performance had more ihafl usual inter- 
est. Everythi ng was brand new and 
abundant iii all details. To Miss Florence 
Hamilton's refreshing personality much 
of the evening's success can he attributed. 
She was entirely competent in her con- 
ception of "Mrs, Jack Hanastcr," and 
very gracefully carried off the part. Miss 
Hamilton has been seen here before, hut 
Ml 110 piece which has ever given her the 
opportunities of "Mrs. Jack." The sup- 



porting cast was excellent, and far above 
the average repertoire companies. The 
specialties included PattlincUt and Piquo. 
B character comedy gymnastic, act. from 
the Hippodrome. London. This act was 
enthusiastically received and is worthy of 
all that has been said of it. It is some- 
thing away above the price. Mlje. Pepiw 
Deter*, from the Opera Comiqvte, Paris, 
is a real artiste, with an excellent reper- 
toire of operatic selections; Tier drcsse; 
are beautiful. Master Philip M. Thurber, 
but a little fellow, already well known in 
the leading music halls, entertained finely. 
Harry Jenkins, the comedy enlertainei, 
who starred last season in "A Gilded 
Tool," is a very clever entertainer. The 
performance was supplemented by fine 
scenic effects. Taken as a whole the per- 



-CONDENSED PRESS OPIlUOBai - 

formanec was a credit to the management. 
— EVEN INC WORLD, Norwich, Conn, 

Aug. 30, 1004. 

Monday was a first nightcr not only 
for the Thurber & Nasher Company, 
which not only opened its season hero, 
but also its career. According to Mana- 
ger Jackson the company had the large. I 
audience on an opening night of any that 
ever played here, and from the manner 
in which" the company pleased it is liable 
to be a record breaker for the week. 
"Mrs. Jack" was the attraction of the 
evening, and while Florence Hamilton 
had a much different conception of the 
part than did Alice fisher, ber portrayal 
was perfect, and her Parisian gowns were 
simply a work of art. .There is an excel- 



lent line of specialties. The Character 
Comedy (Jymnasls, who arrived from 
London last week, are not only gymnastic 
artists, but scientists in their work, and 
were a great success. Mile. PffriU Df- 
lara. of Paris, who sings selections from 
French operas, was a pronounced hit. and 
Master Philip M. Thurber, and Harry 
Jenkins (who starred last season in "A 
Gilded Fool"), were excellent in their 
line.- THE NORWICH BULLETIN, 
Tuesday, Aug. .10, 1004. 

The Tmtrher & Nasher Company pre- 
sented, before a big house, Tuesday even- 
ing, their heaviest piece, "Jim Bhidsoe," 
tlie great New York success. The sy- 
nopsis shows five acts, and these five acts 



are brim full of startling incidents and

exciting climaxes, plots and counter 
plots abounding freely. Tor the first per- 
formanec it must be said the performers 
gave good account of themselves, show. 
ing superior work to the general rim of 
repertoire companies. The play is limmd 
10 be a success, and the parts are taken 
hy capable people. Miss Florence Hamil- 
ton, as Kale Tapgart, had a very tine 
conception of the part, although Miss 
Hamilton does not show to such great 
advantage in this piece as she does in 
"Mrs. Jack," where her beautiful Parisian 
gowns are displayed, her conception of 
the part was a piece of line art, and it is 
not necessary to say that this company 
has made a most favorable impression 
here. — NORWICH BULLETIN, Nor-

Reputation 





For tho past fifty years have been universally rec 
ngnlzcd as being the BEST MADE, and are 
preferred by professional everywhere, which Is 
proven by tho numerous unsolicited endorsements 
received from all parts of the world. 

THE OHUIILn 

Is a splendid novelty to be used in vaudeville. It 
consists of a solo mouth organ, nearly chromatl- 
cal, attaohed to two seta of reeds, controlled by a 
double row of valves, which render chords and 
bass notes, both minor and major. Has the came 
effect as a concertina. Instruction book goes with 
each Instrument. 





Ate made of the best materials which skill and 
years of experience can obtain, thoroughly sea- 
soned wood, to stand any climate, the finest reeds, 
clear and resonant aa a bell. "Just as good as the 
Hohner Harmonicas," Is the best proof of their 
superior quality. 

The "Uohner" instruments are endorsed by Win. 
H. Burke, the original harmonica wonder, who 
was the first to Introduce this Instrument and Its 
possibilities upon the stage. During his profes- 
sional career of the past 2e years be has continu- 
ally used the "Hohner" Harmonicas.

BT J OSEPHINE GI10. 

A Western manager advertised In a recent 

Issue ot a theatrical paper for people for an 

"Insane asylum play," stating his wish, among 

other parte, to engage a man for a "father" 

role. The writer of the following reply to 

the advertisement considered himself eligible 

for the latter role, Is yet awaiting an answer 

to bis application. The letter will explain 

the cause of his failure to receive a contract: 
"Dear Sir :— I saw your 'ad' In Tub Cur- 

i'ku for good people for your Insane Asylum 

play. That is my line and I do them better 

than anything else, aa I have bnd several 

years of experience lb 

sa asylum In New lork 

State. The doctors say 

I'm now cored, and my 

friends advise me to go 

on the stage and be- 
come a great actor, — 

snd I hope to hear 

from you soon, aa I 

want to get out with 

a show troupe before 

there Is a chance of 

sending me back to the 

Asylum. . 1 14,1 

"I don't cars about 

salary, as I would not 

know what to do with 

It If yon gave It to me. 

I think I could play the 

'father' part out of 

sight, as I know how 

most fsthers ought -to 

set. I have enough to 

pay my own expenses 

out to you in Iowa. Do 

you Intend to play In 

this country or la 

Europe T I love to travel 

about the country — no 

matter what country, to 

that my enemlea won't 

catch me and put me In 

the asylum again. 
"Kindly tend me »10 

and your picture so 

that I will know yon 
when yon meet me at 
the depot. I'm certain 
that I shall make a 
good showman and 1 
don't mind dressing up 
like an Indian and pa- 
rading the mala streets 
with a Thomas Hawk In 
my hand. I note that 
you also advertise for 
specialties— I don't do 
one myself, though I 
love to see other folks 
do them. I wouldn't 
mind eating glass If you 
will guarantee that It 
tihuii give me no pane. 
Don't fear to engage 
me, — I am ready to go 
anywhere except back 
to the asylum. 

"Don't forget to send 
t°e |10, and I will 
Immediately return you 
a receipt for It, If I 
don't come myself. I am 
the right age to play 
'father' parts, being 
'5 yenra old, fourteen 
hands high, — no bad 
hHblts, I don't drink, 
ond very often I don't 
eat. A speedy reply will 
be awaited and you can 
mall It la cars of en ac- 
tor that I used to know 
'n Watertown, N. T. 
His name la Slater. 
Vours truly, Simon Q. 
Brown." 

A large bill for ha- 
berdashery, showing the 
Prodigal extravagance 
of the debtor In that 
Hue of gentlemen's 
n «r, waa scut to Nat 
c - Goodwin. The actor 
danced at the amount 
■•"<1 not feeling quite 
ready to settle It at that date, pasted to 
ether, with a postage stamp, the cut edge 
" r the envelope, then facetiously wrote serosa 
ibe back: "Opened by mistake, N. C. Good- 
win." 



As "misery loves company," so also does 
the one inclined to do many of the foolish 
"stunts" offered the visitor at Dreamland, 
that popular resort of universal entertain- 
ment at Coney Island. Shooting the Sbutes 
and Bumping the Bumps at this place Is 



torn of this smooth bill. The quick Journey, 
being ridiculously Interrupted by the bumps, 
affords the onlooker Intense amusement at 
the expense of the "bumper," who, seated 
prone, atarts from the top, little knowing 
what Is In store for him by way of turns 




seldom undertaken by the solitary visitor, 
who can see no fun In making a spectsele of 
himself for the amusement of others except 
In company with others. 

The latter, Bumping the Bumps, Is one of 
tbs moat patronised of Dreamland's attrac- 



tions. General Dumps Is nn Incline of pol 
ished wood, tbe surface of which Is raised 
at Irregular Intervals by "bumps" of various 
alien. By paying a "plckel" a trip the 
visitor or the willing victim Is permitted the 
pleasure of sliding from the top to the bot- 



snd twists, before regaining bis equilib- 
rium. 

Harry Schwab, whose present mission In 
life Is to make Uoatock's animals at Dream- 
land roar through tbe medium of printer's 
Ink, and incidentally grind out a tew bar- 



rowing anake stories— not forgetting to give 
publicity to various storlea commonly known 
In newspaperdom aa "dog" — was made the 
victim the other day of a practical Joke, 
Nover alone would he have undertaken tbe 
perilously foolish trip over tbs "Bumps," dis- 
turbing his usual serenity, but, backed up 
by the presence of seversl boon companions, 
who wished to make It, be had no hesitancy 
In accompanying them down tbe comedy In- 
cline. 

Ilia attention being concentrated for a 
moment on tbe sport afforded by various 
"bumpers," his friends conspired for his soli- 
tary, and Ignominious Journey. It waa ar- 
ranged that while all of them should sit at 
the top of the hill, ready to start st a given 
cue, tbey would lot Schwab make tbs trip 
alone and enjoy bis discomfiture. At tba 
word one of the party gave tbe Jolly news- 
paper man a powerful push which sent him 
spinning upon bis Inglorious descent. Tbe 
first bump encountered swung him Into a com- 
ical attitude that caused 
his friends and the hun- 
dred spectators on the 
board walk to send up 
a shout ot hilarity that 
waa scarcely pleasant 
to tba Innocent cause. 
Tbe next bump caused 
tbs Involuntary acrobat 
to assume tbs prone 
pose of tbe tobogganer, 
while a third shock 
sent his hat flying to- 
wards the bsss of the 
bill, arriving there si- 
multaneously with Its 
owner, whose polished 
dome of thought was 
rudely disclosed to tba 
shouting crowd. 

Beaching tbs end of 
bla Journey In less time 
than It takes to tell 
It, Schwab gathered 
himself together and, 
though laughing In- 
wardly at bli own 
plight, turned and 
abook an apparently 
angry Set to tbe line of 
friends at tba top, vow- 
ing to pay them back 
In their own coin at tba 
Drat opportunity. And 
be will do It, too, for 
the clever, busy brain of 
the man who Alia col- 
umns of space la tha 
papere to exploit bis at- 
tractions can easily de- 
vise means for a fitting 
return to lbs practical 
Joking of hie friends. 

* 
More tbsn one actor 
acquired fame In the 
part of Svengall when 
tbe play, "Trilby," waa 
popular. One of these, 
who la still prominent 
In tbe public eye, at one 
time, after the wane of 
that play, was playing 
a leading part In a pro- 
ductlon touring tbe big 
cities. At Louisville a 
member of tbe company 
wbo was playing In his 
support waa noticed to 
receive a roualng recep- 
tion on bis entrance, 
tbla being due to tbe 
fact that the actor had 
been a favorite In the 
place, which was bla 
borne, having played 
there for a season In 
stock. 

Tbe star of tbe pro- 
duction beard tbe ap- 
plause given to tbe man 
playing tbe lesser part, 
and hastened from bla" 
dressing room to ascer- 
tain the cause. 

"How la It that you 
get that big reception?" 
he asked, apparently 
somewhat nettled by tbe 
fact that he had failed 
to meet with the 
same ; "It seems you're 
a favorite In tbla 
'ten-twenty-lblrty cent' 
place. Hoiv did you 
ever do It?" 
"I did It by playing 'Bvengall' here," re- 
plied tbe Louisville man, with a hidden 
meaning lurking within bis expreeslva eye, 
"you know that part tcouti make any bind 
of an aotor."

News of the Game, 
Jnst as we were commencing to look, as 
the time rolled along, for tbe "Guide Post," 
we find that It hog Leon discontinued. From 
a puny little weakling we have noted Its— 
what to us seemed — healthy growth, but It 
seems that we are Just where we have been 
irany times before — In error. Nothing un- 
common for even careful persons to err In 
Judgment, especially on checker publications. 
It (a really too bad, for "Tbe Guide Post" 
had grown to large proportions. Mr. Pierce, 
the editor that baa been. Is going to Boston 
nnd desires to play Sam Grover. It Is need- 
less to say that Mr. Grover la more than 
willing, and, ns be lias graduated from tbe 
Infant class many moons ago, It It ttrong 
that he will be a good winner. Anyway, who 
can beat the combination? — Barker, Heff- 

ner and Grover. The New London Day 

saya the new book of match garnet to be 
published by Frank Dunne promises to be a 
most valuable addition to (be draughta lit- 
erature of the day. In addition to the 
English tourney games, 1004, and the Jor- 
dan-Krcedman match games, as originally 
Intended It will also Include the English 
tourney game of 1002 and the Scottish tour- 
ney games of 1901 and 1902, thus making it 
the most complete collection of plays on tbe 
two move restriction tbat baa yet appeared. 
In order to Insure tbe speedy appearance 
of the book, Mr. Dunne requires the names 

of 800 subscribers Prank Hollldsy

the boards with "The Prodigal Dau-hier' 
which Is being kept on for some time ' 

At tbe Lyceum Theatre Sanford's Ameri- 
can Co. Is showing In the popular "S: nitric 
for Life." The next change In that ilieitre 
will be "Uncle Tom's Cabin?' on a large scale 
which, tbe tame as Its predecessors, n m ji 
to be popular. 

At the Palace Theatre the house was packed 
on Saturday night, and the drollery tt 'Fid- 
die-Dee-Dee ' Is appreciated to tbe full, the 
singing and dancing again proving special 
features. Next Saturday "Holty T.iltv" lg 
going to be staged for tbe first time anil the 
success of tbe season Is assured, alth.-i-.ia tt 
tbe time of last writing It waa very <l»tibtfnl 
whether tbe Australian patrons would appre- 
ciate or understand the witticisms ami funny 
sayings of tbe Dutch and Jew eomediAiis. 

Among the new performers at Rlckard's Tl- 
voll Theatre the Musical Johnstoocs nude 
their debut In this house, with tbelr clever 
manipulation of tbe xylophone. These per- 
formers originally came out with Tom N'awn's 
Vaudeville Co.. under tbe direction nr j. g 
Rial. By the bye, J. G. Blal Is again on his 
feet, having a small company In Queensland, 
showing his vltagraph and featuring Illus- 
trated songs. 

On Aug. 8 tbe American Travesty Stars 
entered upon tbe fourth and last week of 
"Fiddle-Dee-Dee," st the Palace Theatre, to 
be followed by "Holty Tolty." Considering 
the season and conditions of the country, all 
agree tbat tbe Americans have done a very 
large business. The newspapers of Sydney at 
first were none too kind to the company, but 
since they bsve seen how tbe public take to 
the show they have switched around and now 
give favorable notices. Barney Bernard, Kolb 
and Dill, Maud Amber, Winfleld Blake and 
Llllle Sutherland have created a genuine fu- 
rore. Harry Rickards Is so pleased with the 
show that he has booked It for eleven weeks 
at tbe Grand Opera Honse, In Melbourne, 
commencing Oct 6. putting bis company now 
there on the road, In order to give the Ameri- 
cans a chance. He also desires an Interest 
Ip the show sfter leaving Melbourne, and has 
suggested to Manager James to take the late 
Wilson Barrett's bookings through Africa Into 
London. Manager James, who Is balled as t 
"Prince of Good Fellows," has been besieged 
with offers for an Interest, but he has de- 
clined. All tbe company are prospering and 
In the best of health, especially Kolb, who was 
reorted when arriving at Honolulu, as dying 
with consumption. He has gained over nine- 
teen pounds and Is said to be "a very healthy 
looking consumptive."

John Till, of John and Louisa Till, 
writes: "We are now In our eleventh week 
on J, J. riynn's park circuit, closing tbe 
show, and holding the audience until the 
llnlali. The act Is .a big success.." 

Tiodlbwinks amd Duoan report meeting 
with success In their new act They have 



comedy, melodrama or drama. One cannot 
always exist on kickshaws, and appetites 
easily satisfied tn Summer weather may In 
Winter be turned to more robuBt uses. Where- 
fore there Is no reason to suspect that really 
?ood playa of a romantic or serious mould are 
ated to suffer unmerited neglect In the days 
to come. 

The dispute between the Theatres Commit- 
tee of the London County Council and the 
Drury Lane Theatre with regard to the etruc- 
tural alterations requisitioned by the former 
was referred to the arbitration of John Slater, 
whose award, it Is understood, considerably 
reduces tbe demands of the Council. Progress 
Is being made with tbe alterations, but tbe 
theatre will remain closed till the production 
of "The White Cat," Dec 2G. 

Henry Arthur Jones wishes to contradict 
the statement, which has appeared In several 
papers to the effect that bis new play, to be 
produced at tbe Garrlck tonight, deals with 
the subject of hypnotism. The keynote of the 
play Is to be found In tbe following lines put 
Into the mouth of one of the characters: 
"When I have committed any delinquency, I 
have noticed tbat all persons and all circum- 
stances glare at me as It tbey knew." 

Mr. Plnero Is at present in Scotland putting 
31 27 the finishing touches to his new piece, which 
82 23 In due course will be seen at Wyndham's. In 
- connection with it he asks to contradict tbe 
statement widely circulated that Weedon 
Grossmlth will play a part therein. "Tbe 
principal male character," Mr. Plnero tele- 
graphs, "will be acted by Dion Bouclcault." 

Mr. Musgrove's company In "The Belle of 
New York" are paying a farewell visit to tbe 
Kennlngtou Theatre this week. Several old 
favorites ore still to be found In the cast. In- 
cluding Frank Lawton, the whistler; Harry 
A. Meymott. Max Copland and Beatrice La- 
motte and Winnie Brown. 

Wyndham's Theatre was reopened on Mon- 
day with "The Duke of Kllllcrankle," trans- 
ferred from the Criterion, where Mr. Malcolm 
Watson's comedy, "Winnie Brooke, Widow," 
will be produced on Sept. 1, with Ada Reeve 
In tbe title role. 

It Is said tbat Mr. Tree's next production 
after "The Tempest," will be a new poetic 
drama by Stephen Phillips, In which he will 
play Nero. But of course nothing has yet 
been settled In the matter. 

The Lyric Theatre Is being reconstructed 
and redecorated at a cost of £10,000. It will 
be reopened In September with a continuation 
of "The Earl and the Girl."

The company changed coatumea from sol- 
dier* to sailors, in full view of the audience, 
the colored lights making It one of the pret- 
tiest Ideas ever Introduced In minstrelsy. 
Tbe solo singers, Albert Guy, Geo. Brltt, Nor

fine voices. The end men, Arthur Uuy, Chns.

and Billy Hicks, received two and three en- 
cores for their songs. The stick drill of the 
sailors, by moonlight, with the showing of

great applause. The olio includes: Moii- 
tambo, Brown and Ivers, Carmen, the hoop

have been out two weeks of this scsson, and 
haven't had a losing stand. We are carry- 
ing twenty people, and featuring Sklnucr

novel features have been added alnca last 
season. Among the new members this sea- 
son are the alliums, grotesque acrobats, and

O'Brien Bros., acrobats, with me, doing the 
comedy part in my act, and am pleased to 
say he ia doing well. We have played 
Bordesiey Empire, where wo met Paul Con- 
chas, a Juggler of heavy weights. 1 under- 
stand he has been engaged by Richard I'ltrot 
to appear in America shortly. If sucb Is the 
case the American public will see an act 
never before performed on the American 
stage, as he Juggles Krupp sheila weighing 
hundreds of pounds."

Al. Kkbveb writes : "The burlesques arc new

laughing show I ever bad from start to nnlxh. 
My first part, by Devlno and Wolley, keep* 
the bouse In an uproar at laughter for thirty- 
five minutes, and every number takes two and 
three encores, especially the big number, led 
by Louise Auber. The costumes and special 
scenery for this number Is an innovation, 
never anything having been seen like them 
In burlesque houses. My burlesque, written 
by Andy Lewis, Is beyond explanation; you 
cannot describe It and I have never beard 
such laughs In my life. The following people 
are engaged for the season, beaded by Al.

(KIIOU OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) 

'Western Bureau 

Of the New York Clipper, 

Room 04KC, Ashland Block, Chicago. 

The fairly auspicious opening of tbe regu- 
lar theatrical season, which marked the week 
ending Sept. 10, brought Its modicum of 
cheer to the managerial heart In this neck 
of the woods. Powers', with Ethel Barry- 
more, In "Cousin Kate ;" the Illinois, Willi 
Frllzl Schen*, In "The Two Roses:" McVlck- 
erV, with Wilton Lackaye. In "The lit;" 
the Oarrick, with De Wolf Hopper, In 
"Wang;" tbe Studebaker, with "Woodland," 
and dramatic stock companies at tbe Bush 
Temple of Music and People's Theatre, swung 
Inlo line with the tide of prosperity which 
marked Labor Day. On Sunday, 11, the 
Academy of Music will open for the season, 
and a week later Hyde A Bebman's Music 
Hall (formerly the Iroquois Theatre) will be 
thrown Open to public patronage. The Olym- 
pic Theatre, now In process of reconstruc- 
tion, will be the only theatre remaining dark, 
as it seems probable that the American Thea- 
tre may never be rehabilitated. Tbe new bills 
for the week starting Sunday, 11, include: 
Gertrude Swlggcrt, in "Tilly Olson," a play 
new to Chicago, at tbe Great Northern ; Ir- 
ving Montgomery, In the local Initiation of 
"For His Brother's Crime," at the Aibambra ; 
"A Girl of the Streets," seen locally for the

NOTKS MOM IlDl'FALO IllM.'H WILD WEST. 

— We Invaded Scotland, at Hawick, July 20, 
n nd, notwithstanding the fact that -we have 
had more rain since our advent In the land 
of the Scot 'than all the rest of our season, 
business has exceeded our anticipations. -At 
Glasgow we broke all records, thousands be- 
ing turned awny at every performance except 
two. Edinburgh followed a close second. 
Clias. K. Orlflln, manager of the privilege de- 
partment, and Mile. Octavla, snake charmer, 
have been specially engaged by I!. IS. Moss 
for .the Waverly Market Carnival, opening at 
KdlnOurgb, Dec. 20. At Dundee, Aug. 18, 19 
and 20, the show was visited by exactly 
72,400 people. This figures out at 12,000 
persons to each performance, and is relatively, 
better than any of the cities recently visited, 
with the exception of Glasgow, while the 
show was being loaded at Dundee, 20, the 
chandelier wagon took fire and what might 
have been a serious conflagration was averted 
by Manager Fred Hutchinson's timely arrival 
on the scene. lie substituted sand for water 
to combat tho flames and soon bad the fire 
extinguished. As it was, the upper part of 
(he wagon was consumed, and the naptlia 
tanks were melted, but everything was- in 
readiness for Monday night's performance at 
Arbroutb. Tho arena Is Illuminated by elec- 
tricity, the plant being under the able suMT- 
vlslon of M. B. Bailey, this being bis twelfth 
consecutive season with this show. . Walter 
Beckwith has charge of the candy stands 1M. 
Is making good In every way. Prof. Giovanni, 
cockatoo and monkey trainer, recently re- 
ceived an offer of a nine months' engagement 
In South Africa, from H. H. Bostock, of the 
Glasgow Zoo and Hippodrome. In addition 
to liU numerous permanent places of amuse- 
ment In this country, Mr. Bostock has travel- 
ing establishments in Great Britain, France 
and South Africa. 

H. Stanley. I.kwib and wife and W. W. 
Brown, of the Norrls 4- Itowe Shows,, have'

was 'received nt Davenport, Is., and stowed 
nwny until the circus reaches Winter quar- 
ters, at Ssn Jose, Cal.

were consolidated In 1804, and James A. 
Ballev and W. W. Cole, owners of the Bar- 
naul "& Bailey Circus, are equally Interested 
with Peter and Lewis Bells. Peter Sells Is In 
poor health, having suffered a paralytic 
stroke recently and, being advanced In years, 
lie tins decided to part with all the circus 
properly he controls with his brother. W. W. 
Coin said last week, In an interview: "It has 
been mutually agreed to sell the Forepaugh- 
Sell« Circus at auction. Mr. Bailey and my- 
self have no desire to acquire moro circus 
property, and probably the show will go to 
an outsider." ' '■"

tainly made u reputation In the East. Wo 
aro proud that not n slngla adverse criti- 
cism from the press or public has reached

all the wrty through. While In Philadelphia 
our calliope was struck by a trolley car and. 
budly dumuged, two of tho six. horses lining 
badly burl. The Street Car Com puny settled 
in full, and the calliope has been repaired In 
first class shape. Our first week in Penn- 
sylvania was against opposition, but In splto 
of this and bad weatner, the new show 
packed them nightly. Wo lost throe after- 
noon shows lust week on account of long 
jumps, hut hud the satisfaction of turning 
them away at the night shows. We have 
added ten mules uud six horses this week to 
get as over the mountains. Wo have not 
changed one act In our ring during the sea- 
son und have, but one new performer. The 
Spauldlng , Bros, will close Saturday to Join; 
a Winter allow, with which they were con- 
tracted for laat Spring. While around Phila- 
delphia wo had u grant number of visitors.

American Theatre (Klaw. Erlanger & 
Wels, managers). — The popularity of dainty 
Florence Bindley was fully proven at this the- 
atre night of Monday, Sept. J2, when her new 
musical four act melodrama, by Hal Held, 
entitled "The Street Singer, was given Its 
metropolitan premier. The large theatre was 
crowded in every part and the little star 
was given n right roynl scud off. Her new 
play was first produced at Rochester, N. Y., 
Sept. 6, and is of the usual melodramatic fla- 
vor, wherein, of course, virtue triumphs over 
vice, also In addition permitting Miss Bindley 
to' introduce her undoubtedly clever musical 
specialties. In the piny she Is obliged to 
marry an old roue of u millionaire, the father 
of her fiancee, to save her aged father, the 
millionaire's bookkeeper from going to jail 
for an alleged defalcation. She also lights 
n victorious duel with swords, with tho "vil- 
lain," leaves her wicked old husband's house, 
and, disguised as a street singer, foils the 
detectives Bet upon her trail, detects aud de- 



feats tbe machinations of the three lcudlng 
ng all tbe things that 

)md gone wrong. Miss Bindley sang 



villains, thus righting; all the things th 

and 
played upon musical Instruments accept- 
ably; and her acting waa as clover as 
of yore. Flowers In profusion were piiBsed 
over Hie footlights and her two weeks' 
engagement here began moat auspiciously. 
Her company rendered cupnble support and 
rue staging of the piny wits Adequate, though 
H^veral accidents happened to the electric 
lighting. The rant: Morgan Vim Voort,

ring scenes of "Soldiers of Fortune give 
the house stock company a fine opportunity 
1 his week. Sept. 12 marked tbe opening of 
the Fall season nt this house and the In- 
troduction of two new people nt the head of 
the stock, Edwin Arden to piny leading 
male roles and Isabella Evesson taking the 
place of leading lady, their enlistment in the 
Proctor forces being nn event of Importance. 
Mr. Arden plaved Robert Kdeson's former 
■olc of Robert Clay with credit throughout, 
his fervor In ihe exciting scenes of act three 
being warmly applauded. Miss Evesson was 
successful as Hone Langham. although the 
role was not well suited to her. Gertrude 
Berkley made a distinct triumph ns Mmc. 
Alvarez, contributing some delightful char- 
acter work. Wallace Ersklne, Vemer dar- 
tres, Marlon Berg, II. Dudley Hawley and

crayon artist, and Tanna, Juggler. The mo- 
tion pictures continue. 

Circle Theatre (Percy G. Williams, 
manager). — The capital bill offered by Mana- 
ger Williams for this week served to attract 
two large audiences on Monday, Sept. 11. 
There was a name new to vaudeville, which 
rightly deserved to be placed at the top of the 
bill, and Manager Williams did not err In bis 
Judgment In glrlng.lt that prominence.' It 
was tbe first appearance In this city of the 
quaint comedienne, May Vokes, In vaudeville. 
She appeared In a playlet by Chas. A. Byrne 
(and written expressly for Miss Vokes), enti- 
tled "The Model Maid." Miss Vokes was 
given a character part which lit ted her to a 
nicety, and thin is equivalent to saying that 
she scored a triumphant success. There was 
still another woman lo scare strongly In a 
character bit, and credit must be accorded 
to Edna Aug, who appeared in her well liked 
specialty. Wilfred Clark and company, in Mr. 
Clarke's adaptation from the French, entitled 
"No More Trouble," have a. vehicle which give 
the talented comedian even greater opportu- 
nities .than ever, and. Interpreted by Lucille 
Spinney, Archie Gillies and Ivnh M. Wills, tbe 
bright little playlet kept the audience In con- 
tinuous laughter from start to Its conclusion. 
The English automaton, styled "Enlgmnrelle," 
was a feature of the bill, which also included 
the Orpheus Comedy Four, In comedy and 
vocallsms; Four Bard Bros., excellent acro- 
bats; Hill and Sylvian), European unlcycle 
experts, And who do a graceful act ; Klmuier, 
one of the ilef test of jugglers ; O'ltourke and 
Burnette, who do the most dlfllcult dancing 
In wooden shoes, and the American vita- 
graph, which showed several new Ulins that 
were entertaining. . 

Dewey Theatre (Sullivan A Kraus, man- 
agora). — James Hyde's Blue Ribbon Girls 
started the week here Monday, Sept. 12, to 
two packed houses. This is the first en- 
gagement of the company In New York 
this season, and as the patrons of this house 
know Manager Hyde always presents a clever 
company, there were no vacant seats at 
either of Monday's performances. The en- 
tertainment Is divided Into three parts. The 
opening piece Is a farce, called "Caught with 
the Goods," by Harry Wllllnms, and Is well 
presented. Much credit is due to Bert 
Cooper, who hns staged the ensemble num- 
bers beautifully. There Is not a dull min- 
ute nnd the audience Is kept laughing from 
start to finish. I.ew Palmer and VVm. H. 
Kent carry the comedy roles and they are 
exceedingly amusing. The olio which fol- 
lows Is carefully selected and Includes \Vm. 
Kent, a very clover parodist ; Le Roy and 
1.0 Vanlou. comedy bar performers, who 
were well received ; the Blue Ribbon Zouaves, 
who gave a wonderful performance of how 
Uncle Sam's boys scaled the walls of China, 
nnd an excellent gun drill ; Nevlns and Ar- 
nold, a very entertaining song and dance act, 
and Ward and Bradburn, German comedians, 
who received well merited applause. The per- 
formance closes with a very funny farce, cntl 
tied "A Day at the 
nnd bright, with tuueful 
dialogue. Tbe cast follows

Hudson Theatre (Henry B. Harris, mBn-

sou Monday night, Sept. 12, with William 
Fnversharo and company, In the llrst Amer- 
ican production of "Letty," a drama. In four 
acts and an epilogue, by Arthur W. Plnero. 
The piny, which was originally produced 
Oct. 8, 1903, nt the Duke of York's Theatre, 
London, Eng., Is written In the vein af- 
fected bv Mr. Plnero for some years past 
nnd deals with women' who nre easily per- 
suaded to leave the path, of virtue. Letty 
Shell Is n clerk In n "bucket shop" conducted 
by a Hr in of which Bernard Mandevllle Is a 
member. . Letty Is the daughter of a so- 
licitor and has been given a fairly good edu- 
cation. Her ambition soars above the position 
In which her limited means confine her and 
her natural refinement rebels against the ad- 
vances made by Mandevllle, even though 
they be honorable. When the play opens 
we Snd her on terms of friendship with Nevlll 
Letchmcre, a rich roue, who Is married aud 
has a little son but has been separated from 
Ms wife for two years. Ills chief object in 
life seems to be conquests with women, 
Letty believes Let clime re to be a single man 
and also believes his Intentions nre honor- 
able. She has learned to love blm nnd In 
tbe expectation that he will marry her she 
has borrowed money In small sums from any 
of her friends who could loon It. Mandevllle 
learns of the attachment and after search- 
ing Letchmere's record calls upon that 
gentleman and demands that be retire from 
tbe Held and leave Letty to him- In bis 
lustful way Letcbmerc Is fond of Letty. He 
calls upon her and tells her of Mandevllle's 
visit He nlso acknowledges that he Is a 
married man. When Letty recovers from 
tbe shock Letchmere advises her to marry 
Mandevllle. After his departure Mande- 
vllle arrives and presses his suit. His Illiter- 
ate and uncouth manner Is repulsive to her, 
but he Is rich and able to gratify her ambi- 
tions and she accepts him. He makes up a box 
party of Letty's friends and takes them to 
a music hall, after which tbe party repairs 
to a restaurant for supper. They are shown 
to the only available room In the restaurant, 
In which, It happens, Letchmere, his slater, 
(Mrs. Ivor Crosble) and Copplnger Drake 
have been dining. Mrs. Croebie had previously 
Informed her brother that she feared the 
power Copplnger Drake exerted over her and 
begged Letchmere not to leave her side. 
Drake and Mrs. Crosbic leave Just before the 
Mandevllle party arrive, but Letchmere 
lingers nnd sees Letty. Mandevllle recog- 
nizes blm and suggests that bygones be by- 
gones, and that as Letty Is his affianced 
wife he and Letchmere had best be friends. 
Letchmere accepts the Invitation to have a 
glass of wine and has an opportunity to speak 
with Letty. White the supper is In progress 
Mandevllle takes offence at the actions of the 
restaurant proprietor nnd going off stage 
starts .1 row which ends In n general fight

IIV Tllll ANNllIINCKMBNT- MADE LAST WEEK, 

Jointly by Hyde & Bcbmnn nnd Mrs. Spooner, 
the lntter becomes the manager of two the- 
atres In Brooklyn, namely, the Amphlon, In 
the Eastern District, and the Bijou, where 
her company, the Spooner Stock Co., now 
Is. From the unusual record the company 
and Its stars, Edna May and Cecil Spooner, 
have made In their live consecutive seasons 
in Brooklyn, there Is every reason to believe 
that Mrs. Spooner's oulnrgement of her field 
will be nttended by success. Edna May 
Spooner will he tbe stnr of one division of 
Hie augmented company and Cecil Spooner 
of the other, the two stars alternating each 
week between the Bijou and Amphlon. Tbe 
opening production at the Amphlon, on Oct. 
;t. will be Cecil Spooner, In C. T. Dnzey's 
plnv, '"J'hnt Girl from Texas," In which 
she' has been very successful nnd which will 
lie followed the ensuing week by Edna May 
Spooner, In "When Knighthood Wns la 
Flower £ the latter appearing In "Borneo 
nnd Juliet" at the Bjjou week of Oct. ft. 
John William Schmidt, formerly of The 
Mirror, nnd more recently editor of The 
ftttific ,1s;iii»in. and who wrs mannger for 
Mrs. Spooner In ClnclunRll, lias been en- 
gaged -to rejoin Mrs. Spoouer's business stnff. 
He will Ret as press representative for the 
Amphlon, 



she Iirs eloped with Drake. Letchmere had 
really a love for his sister and hoped that 
she would prove to be the exception to the 
test of the family, all of whom, he declares, 
are hnd. He raves about the elopement and - 
declares he will force Drnlce to marry his 
sister. It Is the only honorable way, he 
tiiys. Gradually a light dawns upon Letty 
and, slipping on her things, she begs him to 
save her from herself and allow her to go 
lo her humble lodgings. He finally gives 
way to her pleadings and she leaves. This 
completes the four acts and In the epilogue 
which follows Letty 1b disclosed as 
the wife of Richard Perry, a pros- 

EerouB photographer. Mrs. Crosble has 
eeome Mrs. Drake and Letchmere Is 
to be Bent to a health resort, he 
having contracted consumption. He learns 
from Letty that she Is happy and that she 
feels that she owes It all to him who per- 
mitted her to leave bis apartments on that 
fateful night. Tbe supposed elapsed time 
of tbe four acts Is only a few hours and 
the action of the epilogue transpires two and 
one-half years later. Mr. Plnero has handled 
his subject deftly nnd has given us a play of 
good constructlou. The plot Is not strong In 
Interest of itself because It surrounds char- 
acters seldom seen In real life, but the au- 
thor has so used his material that tbe In- 
terest Is well sustained. At times he startles 
the auditor by the blunt ness of speech of his 
characters, but a Plnero play without "PI- 
neroisms" Is not to be looked for. The play 
Is better suited for a female than for a male 
star as the title role Is the strongest In the 
work, nevertheless Nevlll Letchmere provides 
opportunity which some actors would mnke 
much of. Mr. Faversham, however, failed 
to attain nny great height. He did not 
fully grnsp the character and the result 
wns only n fairly satisfactory performance. 
Carlo! ta Nlllsnn, ns Letty, easily carried off 
first honors. Her work from first to last 
was convincing nnd the many moods of the 
character were brought out with a pleasing 
delicacy. Through the entire piny she never 
once forgot thnt Letty, even after she was 
a wife, loved Letchmere, that be was her 
Ideal nnd thnt she had no Idea of ever loving 
another. Her suppressed emotion when she 
llrst learns Letchmere has n wife nnd her 
work where she abandons herself to him 
were nrtlstlcnlly done and well deserved the 
hearty recognition accorded her. Fritz Wil- 
liams wns excellent as Richard Perry and 
Kntherlne Florence made a splendid Mrs. Ivor 
Crosble. JulleOppgnveanartlstlc performance 
of Hilda Gunning nnd Olive Oliver wns ex- 
cellent as Marlon Allnrdyce. Arthur Play- 
fnlr was a trifle too obtrusive as Bernard 
Mandevllle but. nevertheless, gave a good 
performance. The cast lu full: Nevlll Letch- 
mere. Wllllnro Faversham ; Ivor Crosble, Ivo 
Dawson ; Copplnger Drake, Frank Goldsmith ; 



There Is sn important debut In vaudeville 
from the legitimate stage noted In this week's 
bill — that of Anule Irish— who appeared on 
Monday In a comedietta by Martha Morton 
Conhelm, entitled "An Actress' Christmas" 
While the short time allotted to the couieili- 
etta does not, of course, afford opportunities 
for special endeavor on the part of Miss 
Irish, sill! she graced the character with a 
finish and grasp that was absolutely flawless 
and the vaudeville stage, which has had 
many accessions from the legitimate, is en- 
riched by this new addition to Its ranks. 
Her debut was a most auspicious one. Sager 
Mldgley and Gertie Carlisle were successful In 
a new version of the "Snmmy and Baralf" 
series and the bill also lists: Collins and 
Hart, in eccentric comedy : Coakley and Mc- 
Bride, in songs aud dances ; the Crane Bros ,

Its predecessor. The fun is presented In a 
high class manner, and reflectB credit upon 
The author. Carl Dammann Troupe of 
clever acrobats enlivened and delighted 
by their clean cut and rapid work. Their 
ease of manner, unassuming way and general 
excellence made them quite a feature. Phil 
Ott, Teddv Simmons and Co., In the Initial 
production of "The Smart Dr. Smart," were 
more than successful In securing the laughs 
for which the piece was written, and tbe 
four members of the cast worked with the 
vim and dnsh which Invariably characterizes 
the work of the Otts. Nello, nsBlsted by 
Hattle Nello. did some clever and eccentric 
juggling which delighted ; Ardell nnd Bay- 
ard, with their picks, made things lively for 
a time and won their meed of applause.

amused greatly; Wills and Collins, In "A 
Day In Madrid," gave a pleasing act; St. 
John and Lefevre did some good singing nnd 
dancing, as did Cunnlgham and Lord; Bell

ing act; Burkbart and Berry, In "Mamma's 
Baby," caused lots of laughter ; the Auiuerg 
Sisters, In a dancing and acrobatic specialty,

vltagraph closed the bill.

ments costing more than $25,000, It Is said,

cess of Ihe piece. Mr. Cressy has written a

ting and appointments were all that could

Held, which was realistic in tbe extreme.

An amusing Incident la related by a popu- 
lar leading man who now can well afford 
to laugh at his own past experiences that 
then seemed so vitally Important, bnt, on 
looking back, were often ludicrous. 

The ability which be lias since developed 
was never In evidence at that time — In fact, 
he confesses to having been a very bad, 
though ambitious, actor — so bad that he had 
a lurking fear that at almost any time some 
member of the audience would express him- 
self through the medium of decayed vege- 
tables or the product of the busy hen In an 
advanced state of decomposition. 

He particularly recalls a night In a small 
place where the company was "barnstorm- 
ing." It was the custom of the hall mana- 
ger, where the seats were twenty-five cents 
for the back seats and fifty cents for the 



NEW YORK, SEPTEMBER 24, 1904.

They were playing Denver a few weeks 
ago, when McCarthy, who waa leaving the 
theatre by way of the stage entrance, was 
accosted by a tattered Individual, from whom 
came the unexpected salutation : 

"Uello, Mac" 



bis pocket, remembering the collection of 
"chicken feed" be had there. 

"It's a touch, an' yet It ain't," returned 
the tramp. "Ton sec, pard, I used In the old 
days to be the original bearded lady, but the 
graft got wore out, an' what with boose an' 



"I should think that would be an easy 
matter," said McCarthy. 

"Not a bit like It," was the slang reply; 
"why, Mac, do you know, I threw myself In 
front of a benslne buggy the other day an' 
the blamed thing had rubber tired wheels an' 
didn't mako a mark on me. Now, Mac, what 
I want Is a mascot — no money — but any old 
thing you've got that will work as a mascot, 
savvy?" 

"Well, here's an old marble that ought to 
do the work you want," aald McCarthy, giv- 
ing tt, with fifty cents, to the unlucky and 
erstwhile "bearded lady." 

Two days later McCarthy received the fol- 
lowing letter, written on a soiled piece of 
note, paper, though In a clean envelope, bear- 
ing the name of a city sanitarium. 

"Friend Mac," It read, "Great I— luck at 
last — fell down a coal hole yesterday an' 
broke my left leg — called an ambulance- 
ambulance broke down on the way to the 
hospital — broke two loft ribs. Two suits 
pending against the city— doctors trying u 
make me split. Lend me that mascot for

'ront, to permit those occupying the former 
to move forward Into the front scats altar 
the third act 

On this occasion the actor had the finish 
of the last scene In that act and, as the 
curtain waa about to' descend, he saw a 
demonstration that convinced him the time 
of his annihilation by an angry audience bad 
«t last arrived, for, rushing toward the stage 
poll mell, came a score of them. He did not 
wait for the attack which be felt to be In- 
evitable, but with quaking heart and tremb- 
Ing limbs made a hurried exit to his dress- 
ing room, where he lingered only long enough 
to grab a hat and coat The company found 
aim In a dark corner of the depot awaiting 
tue time to board the outgoing train for the 
n«t town in which they were to "show." 

When he explained the reason of his sud- 
a « D flight, which necessitated his underetudy 
Wng on In the last act, the company had 
'He laugh on him for misinterpreting the 
rush of tho twenty-five cent people tor the 
"ty cent seats In anticipating their prlvl- 
m as soon as the third act was at an end, 
"en before the curtain had reached the 
flour, 

Conlan and some friends were viewing the 
P" Hires at- the Metropolitan Museum not 
wng ago. Near their group was a young 
wri and an elderly woman, both of whom 
. , , e •PPawntly from a region where the 
•""Jects and the painters of pictures were 
nOequently discussed. The girl was read- 
, K t0 ner older companion the names of the 
PMures from the catalogue. They were 
wiura a large cattle picture, which the 
» u ")ger, referring to the catalogue; read: 



didn't like gettln' their plctcre took." For 
a full minute she examined the canvas, then 
finally continued : 

"I can see the drove of cattle all right, 
but I don't seem to find the girl." 



* "The Race Tout's Dream" seems to be a 
rather odd title for a sketch. It la, bow- 
ever, making a decided success, much to the 
approval of Myles McCarthy and Alda Wool- 
cott, who are playing tt Tbelr bill reads: 
"Playing to twenty-four minutes of unre- 
strained laughter and applause, and employ- 
ing six stage bands for tbe BIO RACK 
FINISH." 



"How do, Bub," said tbe actor, though lie 
did not recall having met tbe man before. 

"Don't know me, do yuu?" 

"Can't say as I do," said McCarthy. 

"I'm one of tbe perfesb." 

"What Is It— a touch f asked the actor, 
whose generous band was about to reach Into 



one tblug an' another, I'm clear down an' 
out." 

"That's tough luck," said McCarthy sympa- 
thetically. 

"Say, Cull," you don't know what tough 
luck Is," said be In the vernacular of the 
Weary Willys, "I've tried hospitals on one 
gag an' another — tbe scheme worked for a 
while, an' I would git a bed an' a meal — but 
this here town Is onto me an' I can't seem 
to work tbe hospitals any more. They won't 
•tan' fer a frisk that ain't sick fer fair, an' 
It don't seem to be my luck to git sick or 
git hurt." 



fur Mrs. Patrick Campbell, tells a story of 
an ambitious young actor lu a stock com- 
pany, whose part In a production seemed not 
to please him. 

"Well, what's the trouble V" asked King, 
noting the actor's disappointment. 

"I'vo looked tho ploy through," said tbe 
young man, "and thero's little for me to 
say, — I expected at least a few telling lines 
that would give me a chance to show my 
ability,— and 1 find nothing but a little bit 
of business. There's nothing In It for me," 

"Why I" exclaimed King, "you and I have 
the most exciting as well as tbo best scene 
In the plsy — I don't see why you complain," 

"I didn't see It," grumbled the young man, 
"where Is It?" 

"In tbe third act," said King, "don't you 
remember — you come In and call me a liar, 
then I start In and kick you all over the 
place, — It's a big scene for you, I toll you." 

"Rut that's only buslnes," said the young 
actor ruefully. "I want lines."

bit In "The Klevcntli Hour," thero wero 
some who did not care for It This fact 
was recently recalled to a member of the

OUR EUROPE) AN LETTER. 

(FROM OUB OWN COBRBSPONDBNT.) 

This is Sept. 1, and ever; music ball on the 
continent In full blast, repainted, redecorated 
nnd reseated to conform with nil the Are laws, 
its that terrible calamity In Chicago bas been 
severely felt over here. Even the Koyal Opera 
House, In Berlin, has bad hideous Are escapes 
put all over the front, back and sides at the 
Instance of the German Emperor, who, In 
fact, has ordered a new Koyal Opera House 
to be erected In a different part of the city. 
The Wlntergartcn, Berlin, was to hnve opened 
Its doors on Aug. 18, but owing to the cancel- 
lation of five acts It had to postpone tbc open- 
ing until 10, something that has never hap- 
pened before In the history of that hall. Two 
of the acts that canceled are now In America 
— Keno, Welsh nnd Montrose and Bedlnl and 
Arthur. Tbe only American act on the pro- 
gramme of tbe Wlntergarten Is tbe Baggas- 
sens, who always are a terrific success over 
here, copied by many but equaled by none. 
Then there are the Twenty-Hour Harpists, 
whom Ted Marks brought to America. Beve- 
rln, tbe great French pantotnlmlst ; Tlllic 
Ueebe, with her twelve lions ; Marcell Sal- 
ter, humorist; Bldl Nlrvlnl and her horse, 
nnd the Klein Family of bicyclists (due In 
America Boon for Martin Beck's show) ; Paula 
Worms, soubrette; Three Meteors' wonderful 
ncrlal show, Anna Dickens, Vienna actress ; 
Begommer, ventriloquist; a ballet and tbe 
American biograph make a wonderful snow 
and are playing to packed houses every night. 
Ben Tieber, well known In America, opened 
on Sept. 1, tbe hnndiomest vaudeville thea- 
tre In Vienna that baa ever been built In Eu- 
rope, and from press reports the bouse and 
show made a sensation, lie certainly deserves 
nil tbe success that can come to him, as he 
had all kinds of obstructions placed In his 
way before opening, but overcame them all. 
He la an American citizen, having been over 
In America many years and being naturalized. 
He returned to Vienna, bis native home, and 
showed them n few years ago by his American 
knowledge how to give shows. He rented the 
Colosseum and made a vaudeville show out 
of It and bis succcbb was so decisive they 
bought him out for a considerable sum. To 
square himself with them lie opened this pal- 
ace and shsnici do the biggest business ever 
done there. He don't forget his country and 
prefers to play as many American acts as pos- 
sible. Ills opening bill Included Johnstone 
nnd Dean and Everhnrdt, who never have 
played Vienna. In fact, nil people In his 
opening show are new to the city. Johnstone 
and Dean and Evcrhardt made terrific suc- 
cesses. In fact, they were the stars of the bill. 
Otliers engaged are Zola Nanson, danseuBe ; 
Wnldcmar, comic singer ; Marquis Dasle, 
with six horses; Volksnuger Quartette, Tatty 
Frank's acrobatic troupe, Adcle Moraw, sou- 
brette ; Six Idols, acrobatic dancers ; the Za- 
linknns and their dog, Six Spanish Sextette 
Barcelonas, Ella Captive, Boiihrettc, nnd the 
Malder Brothers' pantomime, "The Vaga- 
bonds." 

Another palace of varieties over here Is 
the Hanover Theatre, In Hamburg, which 
really has the greatest place nnd Is nearer 
the American style than any thing over here. 
It Is a palace In Its wny, run on a style that 
can't be beaten. The management prefers 
American acts, as In Hamburg nearly every- 
one speaks English. The entrance prices nrc 
from Marks ({1.50 In our money) down to 
the admission, twenty-live cents. On the In- 
side of the house, around the border nre 
line paintings by masters nnd favorite 
stars nrc In squares by themselves. Among 
them arc Yvotto Uiillbcrt, Saharct, Judlc, 
Ada Culby, Itobcrt Slcldcl and Otto lloutter. 
The programme for the opening Included fol- 
lowing American nnd European acts: Stnley's 
transformation act, which made a big senna- 
tlon, being on Hie style of Btnloy and lilr- 
beck, and Introduced by Cass Btaley; Dicks 
Brothers, the Patterson Brothers, I'uddy nnd 
tbe mighty nam George, with another part- 
ner, who are hilled as the Hounding Patter- 
sons and scored heavily ; 0. K. Sato, the plain 
every day Sato, who has been hero so often 
that lie nearly has the end of the programme 
to himself as the roars of laughter he pulls 
from the audience sends them home talking 
about the foolish Juggler; Mcrian's dog pan- 
tomime, last season In America ; liertha 
Bertlnn, a very clever acrobatic dancer, 
who makes a big success In her black and 
white costume nnd makes a novelty out of It. 
Several other European novelties till out the 
long programme. A specially In (his house 
In an orchestra of forty picked musicians. 

Victor Herbert's comic opera, "The Seren- 
ade," also opened In Haaiburg Sept. 1, at one 
of the local theatres, nnd the premier there 
of that American composer's work has made 
it the starting point of success In Germany. 
The entire press were unanimous lu praises 
of Mr. Herbert's work. 

In the different theatres on the continent 
I notice the following American or familiar 
European nets : Working In Paris, at the Al- 
hambra, are Imro Fox, the funny magician, 
nnd Helolse Tltcomb, an American gin who 
enmo from America w'th "The Belle of New 
York," and made n big nuccess nt Zurich, 
In Switzerland. At the Corso Theatre, Ko- 
norah, the well known mlud render, etc., Is 
getting columns of notices In the newspapers 
for her unexcelled nnd nmrvclous fen lure. In 
DuBseldoi'f, nt tlio Apollo Theatre, Belle Da- 
vis and her pickaninnies; nt Mcllenl Theatre, 
Hanover, Ada Collcy, l.ho Nightingale; nt 
Kissengen, one of the finest cure resorts lu 
Germany, Snhnrct is appearing for seven days 
nt the theatre there to capacity busluess, get- 
ting fifty nor cent, of tho gross receipts for 
n seven minutes' dancing turn. She played 
the Summer resort, Ilcrlngsilorf, where she 
was Summering, for one night, at prices from 
twenty-live 1 cents to two dollars, and played 
to the capacity of the Ktirtuitis. She opens 
her regular season Sept. 10, at Prng. Austria, 
nnd plays Hamburg, Munich, Kopeuhagtm, 
Berlin, Purls, Hanover, Vienna and Ornx un- 
til next June, when she takes her vacation. 

Circus Bush and Circus Sehumnn both opeu 
their seasons In Berlin Sept. 10. These rivals 
nre both advertising new sensations never be- 
fore seen In Europe. 

Prank Thompson, of Thompson & Dundy, 
proprietors of l.unu Park nnd the new Hippo- 
drome In New York, was n recent visitor In 
Berlin and made the rounds of all tho small 
circuses playing In (ioruinuy. 

Madge and Morton, American musical 
sketch team, are visiting relatives In Berlin. 

Tho talk over here at present 1b linns, the 
famous mind reading horse, a phenomenal 
equine. Newspapers aro printing columns 
about him nnd his manager has been offered 
ns high as $1,000 a week, but refuses It, as 
lie Is wealthy. 

Another net that Is n sensation Is Felix, 
who bills himself ns an American, but talks 
Herman ns fluently as a native. He answers 
over two hundred mid fifty thousand questions 
put to him nnd Is getting a great den) of ad- 
vertising for himself. He Is to appear before 
the Emperor shortly, I hear. 

The following plays nre now being presented 
In Berlin over three hundred times : "Ubcr 
den Qroase Tclch" ("Across the Ocean"), by 
Adolnh Phillips, who formerly managed the 
Eighth Street Theatre, New York, and who Is 
now ns successful hero ns he was at home. 
He has all American Ideas, songs nnd dances 
In tilt show. Then there Is "Venus nuf Er- 
den" ("Venus on the Earlh"), with tho favor- 
ite, ltoburt Sleldel, as slnr. It Is packing 
them to the doors. Also "Eln Tulles Juhr" 
("A Lively Year"), with Henry Bender, the 
lolllest of comedians, who got his schooling 
In New York, playing Cronhelms, Yolk? 
Garden, etc.

London, w. c. 

Bent 2 
Last Saturday night "The Chevnfecr," ■ 
three act comedy, by Henry Arthur Jones, 
was produced by Arthur Iiourchler at the 
Garrlck Theatre. This practically Inaugu- 
rated the season and It was In every way 
n conspicuous first night Tbe keynote of 
the play Is contained In some lines put In 
the mouth of his central personage, of whose 
conversational methods (hey are eminently 
characteristic. "When." says tbe Chevalier 
Mounteagle. alias William Maklns, "I have 
committed any dellnqulncy, I have noticed 
that all persons nnd nil circumstances glare 
at me as If they knew." It Is not, however, 



rather, perhaps, of a geml-consclons black- 
mailer, on whom It slowly dawns that he is 
supposed to be In possession of valuable 
secrets concerning which be Is wholly Ignor- 
ant. The Chevalier of Arthur Biurchler. 
cleverly made up and full of rich animal 
spirits, Is really a very funny fellow. Violet 
Vanbrugh, as Lady Anne, Is admirable, even 
If a Utile too Impressive for the part But 
though It Is on Mr. Bourchler's shoulders 
that tbe burden of the labored Joke falls, 
there are other players who make quite tbe 
most of their opportunities. Ethelwyn 
Arthur Jones blendB fun with sentiment 
very happily In the passages of Juno's lovc- 
raaklng with the youthful Earl of Blrdllp. 
Sydney Valentine Is artistically excellent 
In the role of a reformed proprietor of moral 
wax works. Nancy Price Is delightful In her 
clear cut treatment of tbe rather thankless 
role of Mrs. Fulks-Mecsora, and Nye Chart, 
A. E. Matthews and 0. B. Clarence do what

HENRI FUENCII 

Is as well known In America an lie Is in Europe and Is one of the most popular performers 
that bus ever come to this country, lie returned to the United States Aug. ill and opened 
the following Monday at the Auditorium, Philadelphia, presenting a new act, which scored 
a pronounced success. Besides the best features of his former act, he bas Introduced charac- 
ter changes and the marvelous rapidity with which he accomplishes complete changes well 
entitles him to use thu word "lightning" to designate bis work. He will this season play 
most of the leading vaudeville houses In the United States nnd, having toured tbe country 
several times before, he is sure of a hearty welcome wherever he appears. 



tho speaker who has committed a dellnqulncy 
and Is glared at by circumstances In the 
course of the action of the play. Those odd 
expressions aro reserved for Lady Anne Kcl- 
lond, who has managed to get herself into 
one of those scrnjies which tbe Ingenious 
dramatist is so fond of weaving arouud 
wayward wives. After one of her frequent 
squabbles with Sir Juhn Kellond, Lady Anne, 
who Is his superior In rank, has run away, 
hut only to seek consolation with her friend, 
Mrs. Fulks-Meesom, at Blddenford, a placo 
reached from Kellond Park by train after 
n change at Grandbury Junction. There 
wan no harm Id this, nor was there — so far 
ns Lady Anno was concerned — In her belug 
followed by her cousin, Mllly's rejected lover, 
Charles lnskip, who enjoys her sympathy so 
much that ho makes her miss her last train 
■it Grandbury and put up for tho night at 
the Woolpnck Hotel. It seems. In the morn- 
ing when the two meet on the lauding which 
runs around Hie top of the old fashioned 
smoking roam, thut Charlie has put up thero 
too; and thus Lady Anno finds herself In- 
nocently compromised. Her dismay Is only 
Increased by Charlie's apologetic protesta- 
tions; but nil may yet be well if she returns 
home nt ouce, and Mrs. FulkB-Mccsora's 
silence us to her absence can be secured. 
Charlie also can return later ou to Kellond 
Park, where, as a guest, he witnessed Lady 
Aiiiiu'b quarrel Willi her husband, and no 
one need ever suspect their having been for 
a moment together. Bo far all tills seems to 
lay tho foundations of another comedy of 
compromise; but the clement of farcical 
fear soon asserts itself In tbe movements of 
a mass of tarpaulin ou tho smoking room 
floor, whereon Is presently disclosed, to Lady 
Anne's horror, the Chevalier Mounteagle, 



floor, whereon Is presently disclosed, to Lady 
Anne's horror, the Chevalier Mounteagle, 
sleepily nwukenlng from a tipsy- slumber. 
Chevalier, or Chevaleer, a traveling show- 
man with a fine command of flowery lan- 
guage, has, It seems, been tricked by Jealous 
rivals Into an orgle, the result of which is 
intended to be his failure to secure the di- 
rection of n grand feto to be held shortly 
nt Kellond Park. Now, It was precisely tbls 
proposed feto which was the chief bone of 
contention between Lady Anne, who thinks 
It Is n ridiculous waste, of money, and Sir 
John, who Is bent upon tho family glorllleu- 
t tun. To her profound disgust tho unhappy 
woman finds herself, or fancies herself, In 
tho power of the Chevaleer, whoso mysteri- 
ous manner and high flown proposal "to 
draw a veil of silence over the Indiscre- 
tions of tho past night" convince her that 
eho must bribe him by constituting herself 
his advocate with her husband. As n mut- 
ter of fart, the bombastic "poseur" has 
heard nothing at all, but ho is quick enough 
to take advantage of his ningnotlc influence 
over the lady, who consents to drive home 
with him and his precious daughter, Juno, 
and to do ber best to Influence tier husband 
In favor of his costly schemes for the Kel- 
lond festivities. The triumph gained In the 
first act by the blntont showman through 
the lady's unfounded fears Is well kept up 
through the socond and third acta. Not 
only does tho Chevaleer roanago to Install 
himself and his roundabouts and steam 
organs nt .Kellond Park on his own very 
handsome terms for an "epoch making 
show," which frightens Its proposed giver 
by Its expense. Chance rouses both Sir 
John and Mrs, Fulks-Meesom to fancy thnt 
he knows something about them thnt they 
wish to concent, and tho only wonder In 
that he Is mil allowed to (urn the hoy ami 
girl lllrlntlon between his daughter Juno 
nnd Lady Anne's youthful nephew, Lord 
Blrdllp, Into another alliance between the 
aristocracy and "the profession." lie car- 
ries all before him without knowing what 
he is carrying nor whether be is carrying It. 
His humors are those of an unconscious, or, 



take so quietly the strange doings of the 
Chevaleer nt Kellond Park. 

When "Marguerite" Is produced by Lena 
AhIiwcII at the Coronet Theatre ou Monday 
next It will be fouud, I am told, that Michael 
Morton, in adapting tbe play, has treated 
Ills subject rather from the standpoint of 
drama than comedy. Among the Important 
features will be the singing of "The Coning- 
iiole." the most gruesome of all the songs 
of tlio Revolution, while other songs, dances 
and appropriate Incidental music will also 
be introduced. The latter has been specially 
composed by Lewis Keyzer, whose settings 
of some of Maeterlinck's poems have already 
uchlvcd great success. 

The transfer of "The Duke of Kllllcrankle" 
from the Criterion to Wyndhnm'B took place 
on Monday, instead of Thursday, as at first 
contemplated. 

I am asked to explain with regard to (he 
new management at the Adclpbl Theatre, 
that Otho Stuart Is the sole responsible man- 
ager of the theatre, while Oscar AhcIib Is 
under engagement to him ns director of the 
stage department, subject, of course, to Mr. 
SI ii art 

The late Wilson Barrett's estate has been 
valued at l.lO.tJO'J, gross. 

Frank Ciirzuu Informs me that he has no 
Intention nt present of transferring "Ser- 
geant Brue" to any other home from the 
Prince of Wnlcs Theatre, where the piece 
coutlnus to draw large audiences. Later on, 
in the Autumn, when the theatre Is required 
for the production of George Edwardcs new 
musical play, It will be necesary, no doubt. 
to find a new home for "Scrgeaut Brue," 
but not yet. 

Arrangements have now been concluded 
between George Edwardcs and Frank Curxou 
for the new piny, entitled "His Highness, My 
Husband," to be produced at the Comedy 
Theatre on or about Sept. 17. Tbls Is an 
ndaptatlon from the French, by William 
Booscy, nnd the cast will Include : Miriam 
Clements, Lottie Vcnne, Leonard lioyne, 
Paul Arthur, Herbert Ross nnd Philip Cun- 
ningham, while the play Is to be produced 
under the direction of Gilbert Hare. 

A school of drama and acting has been 
established as part of the curriculum of the 
Hampstead Conservatoire of Music, Swiss Cot- 
tage, and the management has been under- 
taken by F, It. Benson. 

Charles Warner has commissioned "Ber- 
nard Esplnasse, the author of a piece played 
at the Imperial Theatre during Lnngtrys sea- 
son of 1002, and of several touring dramas, 
to write him a play for production next year. 
The subject, which has been suggested by 
Mr. Warner himself, Is of very powerful In- 
terest, and the leading role, In which he pur- 
poses to appear, Is a character-Btudy of n 
very novel and original kind. 

1 hear that when the Haymnrket Is out of 
the hands of builders and decorators wo shall 
find that the pit has been restored. 

The 300th performance of "The Orchid" 
will take place nt the Qnjety Theatre on Tues- 
day evening next. 

There are rumors of a music ball to be 
erected In Oxford Street, opposite tbe Prin- 
cess Theatre. 

The funeral of Bertha Waring (Mrs. John 
Wilson Musante), of Wilson and Waring, 
whose death last Thursday come as a surprise 
and a shock to tbc many friends of this 
popular couple, took place on Monday at Toot- 
ing Cemetery. Tho cortege left Cnmberwell 
nt 12 o'clock and a number of Borrowing 
friends accompanied it. The culun was buried 
deep in floral offerings from friends and com- 
rades in the vaudeville profession. Those 
who were present at the funeral were: John 
Wilson, husband of the deceased ; Mf. and

"With Vpeclal Scenery and Effects. 




"HAMLET" — Both matinee and evening pro- 
duction* at the Grand yesterday of "Hatrt- 
let" were well patronized, especially the even 
lng performance. The work of fidward N 



Hoyt, In the role of Hamlet, was anch as to 
make the play most enjoyable. To play the 
part of Hamlet ai It should be played la an 



exacting task, but Mr. Hojt waa fully equal 
to It well fitted for such a role by reason 
of natural endowments, be gave a clever por- 
trayal of the character. Mr. Hoyt'a acting I* 
free from any taint of ranting. Hla enuncia- 
tion was distinct, and the audience bad tbe 
full benefit of tbe beautiful expression which 



Shakespeare put Into his character's mouth. 
— THItf HAMILTON SPECTATOR, Sept. fl. 

The audience that greeted Edward N. Hoyt 
at the Grand last night was a critical and ap- 
preciative one, and rarely has the curtain In 
this popular playhouse been rung down on an 
evening's performance that gave more general 
satisfaction. Mr. Hoyt'a impersonation of 
Hamlet Is of a character to excite only ad- 
miration and a longing for a return visit ; 
void of any suggestion even of rant, with a 
voice that at times resembles the mighty cat- 
aract and again falls to the silvery tones of 
the hillside brooklet, absolute perfection In 



enunciation, and a handsome stage presence, 
bis work can be described In one word — fin- 
ished, till support last night was of a quality 
only too rare In these days of "onemnn 
shows." Every one on the stage was an art- 
ist, fitted for bis or ber part with a truthful- 
ness to detail rarely seen In traveling com- 
8 snles.— EVENING BTAIl, St. Catharines, 
nt., Sept. 18, 1004. 

"Hamlet," with Edward N. Hoyt In the title 
role, was the Labor Day offering at the Grand. 
Mr. Hoyt has an excellent stage presence and 
a good voice, with sense enough not to give 
way to the temptation that besets most actors

— Royal Llllputlans Notes : A good sized 
audience, in which ladles and children pre- 
dominated, welcomed the Initial performance 
?, 'V''enn)land," tho now production of the 
Royal Llllputlans, at Jacobs' Theatre, Eliza- 
beth, Saturday. Sept. 17. The play was full 
of keen fun und bright dlaloguo and It has 
it swoetivss und flavor of what Is pleasant 
(o sucll a degree that It plcuscs Immensely. 
characters uuneni' and disappear with such 
startling, lightning like movement that the 
uiidlencR Is kept in n continual roar. There 
were numerous pretty girls .who uppeared In 
n rapid succession of eiitrnnclugly effective 
songs and dances. Tho piny deals with the 
sudden appearance, on the Isle of "Llllpnt," 
of n shipwrecked crow, led by "Slnbnd,' r nnd 
their reception by tho Llllputlnna. Opportuni- 
ties aro afforded for beautiful scenic dls- 
plu.v and lavish costumes. Charles Jotjnaon, 
us Slnbnd, Is a clever comedian and made an 
excellent Impression. Jennie Lnmont dis- 
played considerable ability In her transforma- 
tion from the mttf witch to the llvolv, vlca- 
clotis cook. George Laible gave a graceful' and 
natural Impersonation. Louis Merklc has 
seldom, If ever, had u better opportunity for 
the good work which is especially his line, 
.dimes B. Rosen has lost none of his humor — 
In fact, seems to have become more funny. 
Mury !•,. Baker Is a young Indy rcinnrknbly 
well endowed with good looks, supplemented 
».v « charming personality and nindo alto- 
gether a very attractive fairy queen. She 
enacted her somewhat trying role with much 
grace nnd a wholly acceptable manner. Queen 
Man, Annie Nelson and Martha Wels were 
decidedly successful In their respective roles 
und were us cunning and unaffected ris was 
possible for them lo lie. The minor chu me-

dominated several of the strong scenes anu 
contributed sumo capital work In the two In- 
tense scenes of act three. George Arllss, 
whoso work on our stage line won him an 
enviable place In public Favor, played Steyuc, 
and brought every Intonation of voice and 
gesture to a stato of perfection so line that 
the uudlencc sat practically spellbound before 
the llnlshed art of tbe Impersonator. There 
was unstinted praise accorded his acting 
ou every baud and It was acknowledged

Lyric Theatre. (Sam S. & Lee Shubert, 
managers). — "Taps," a drama of German 
military life, taken from tbe play by Franz 



Adam Beyerleln, entitled "Zapfeustrelcb," 
and translated by Charles Swlekard, was 

Slven Its first New York production at this 
ouso evening of Saturday, Sept. 17, with 
Herbert Kelcey and Eflle Shannon as co- 
stars. Tbe players and their company gave 
tbe work for the first time at the Taylor 
Opera House, Trenton, N. J., Sept. S. Tbe 
play In the German was presented for tbe 
first time in this country at tbe Irving 
Place Theatre, this city, March 23, last, 
with Ferdinand Bonn in tbe leading role, 
the title "Zapfeustrelch" ("Tattoo") being 
then given It. Onr columns of April 2 gave 
tbe story la full. In tbe translation 
there has evidently been attempted the task 
of preserving the military atmosphere of 
German garrison life, with some degree of 
success, and the stolid traits In tbe national 
character of the Teuton are brought to tbe 
surface forcibly In tbe delineation of tbe role 
of Volkhardt. But the work as a play falls 
below tbe standard because of the paucity 
of Incidents provided and also through lack 
of skill In handling tbe material. There 
Is any quantity of Irrelevant dialogue which 
clogs the actios lamentably ana tbe In- 
terest of the auditor is consequently 
thrown almost entirely upon tbe work 
of tbe Individual players. Mr. Kelcey, 
as Volkhardt, tbe elderly sergeant major, 
who Is a stickler for military deportment 
nnd duty and all that those words Imply, 
did not make a happy selection In 
his role, for there were very few 
opportunities given him la the matter of 
effective lines, nor was tbe character one of 
sufficient prominence to satisfy his admirers. 
He was liberally applauded on the opening 
night, as wan Miss Shannon, who was also 
handicapped ns well by the limitations of a 
role which gave little scope to her winsome 
charms of manner and sincerity of acting. 
In several scenes, however, she gave a gleam 
of her powers and really did remarkably well, 
all things considered. Harry M. Blake ad- 
mirably conducted himself as the love lorn 
Helhlg, a difficult role at best, but which be 
kept at a point of Interest. Paul Everton 
did the most consistently praiseworthy work 
of all as Von Hoewen, and Robert Lorain 
was sincere and convincing as tbe lieutenant, 
who basks in the favor of tbe girl. Ernest 
J. Mack did an excellent bit of character work 
in the third act, tbe court room scene, 
and Aubrey Noyes played tbe woman 
bater, Quelss, with considerable skill. Tbe 
cast : Captain Von Bonnewitz, Albert Sackett ; 
First Lieutenant Von Hoowen, Paul Everton ; 
Second Lieutenant Von Louden, Robert Lo- 
rain ; Sergeant Major Volkhardt, Herbert 
Kelcey ; Sergeant Quelss, Aubrey NoyeB ; Cor-

Miner's Elarhth Avenue Theatre (Ed- 
win D. Miner, manager), — Gus Hill's Vanity 
Fair. opened its engagement Sept. 19, to a 
capacity house, which for enthusiasm and up- 
roarious laughter could not be beaten. A 
laughable skit, "The French Girl," void of 
rhyme or reason, but full of snap and laughter 
provoking lines, opened the bill. The olio was 
excellent In every respect, Ward and Ray- 
mond culling forth marks of approval by 
clever dancing; Clemenso Bros., In a Euro- 
pean musical oddity, were quick, clever and 
original; Held and Woolston sang with gin- 
ger and good results ; linhof. Conn and 
Corlnne, In "The Doings of Mr. Louder," con- 
vulsed the audience, and Henry and Boon 
rendered Illustrated songs well. The bur- 
lesque review, "The Female Drummers," was 
a fitting close and was replete with clever 
songs, dances and Jokes, Roger Imbof was 
excellent in bis Irish character work and 
Hugh L. Conu was an able assistant. The 
costuming was tasteful and ricb. The com- 
pany was competent in every respect and 
tbe marching and singing were on a par with 
the other effects. Gay Masqueraders next 

Keith's Theatre (E. F. Albee, general 
manager). — Standing room only was the an- 
nouncement which greeted the late patrons 
hero on Sept. 10. Every seat and every 
available vantage spot was pre-empted early 
lu the day. The ulll presented was posi- 
tively without a weak spot and there were 
several headline, acts contained In Its make 
up, besides two American debuts of Euro- 
pean acts of Mr. Keith's Importation. The 
top line position of the programme is justly 
given to Mr. and Mrs, Nobles, who produced, 
Tor tho first time on any stage, an original 
comedietta, by Milton Nobles, entitled "Tbe 
Days of '40, with Incidental music and 
special scenery. The little comedy was cast 
as follows: Mrs. Ellen Fitzgerald, Mary 
Davenport ; Nora Fitzgerald, Dolly Nobles ; 
Mandrake Plllsbury, M. D., Allan- Bennett; 
the Postman, B. A. Carter; the Newsboy, 
A. G. Ammin ; Damocles Delany, Milton 
Nobles. It was qulto a pretentious offering 
for vaudeville, and written In Mr. Noble's 
best vein (comedy character). These sterl- 
ing players, capably assisted by their 
little company, carried the piece to instant 
success. Tho Bight Vossar Girls, In their 
musical specialties, renewed formor suc- 
cesses hero, and Fanny Rice was given a 
cordial reception in ber talking doll net. The 
debuts were : Sic. Germinal, who met with Im- 
mediate favor In baritone solos, and Lea 
Freres Rlgoletto, In a really marvelous re- 
volving trapeze act. In addition to these 
strong features tho bill contained the popu- 
lar names of James Harrison, who has added 
songB nnd stories to bis tramp Juggling act ;

"She," a novelty from Europe, was seen for 
tbe first time In Amerlcn at this house, mati- 
nee of 10. "She" presents n group of 
draperv dances, depleting tbe four elements 
—earth, water, air and fire, each dance being 
given with an equipment of scenic and me- 
chanical effects which enable "She," who la 
a decidedly attractive young woman, to 
uehlevo some unusually brllllnnt and striking 
figures. Her work gives ample evidence o£ 
careful Instruction and the applause at the 
finish was prolonged and hearty. Marsnaii 
P. Wilder told his stories with las hearty an 
accompaniment of laughter as ever, and 
Delmore and Lee thrilled the audience with 
their revolving ladder specialty, which is 
particularly fine. Klein, Ott Bros, and Nich- 
olson got plenty of varied and high class mu- 
sic out of the different instruments they use, 
and they pleased Very much, while Willy Zim- 
merman made a decided success with his Imper- 
sonations. Smith and Smith presented a sketch 
by Edmund Day, entitled "In Dixieland,' 
which Is a well arranged little story of a 
negro auntie who entertains unawares tbe 
voting white master of long ago, who baB 
grown from childhood to man's estate since 
ibe has seen him. Mrs. Smith's dialect was 
excetllent, and young Mr. Smith's singing 
made one of the biggest successes of the even- 
ing. The act made a most pleasing -impres- 
sion. Others on the bill were: Lord and 
Payne, In a capital acrobatic act, with good 
rough work Introduced; Mr. and Mrs. Larry 
Shaw, In their excellent dancing act; Mil- 
dred Hanson, singing comedienne ; Le Roy 
and Walby, two misses whose dancing proved 



tbe motion pictures. 
Criterion Theatre (Charles Frohmnn, 

manager). — On Monday night, Sept. 10, Wm. 
H. Crane and company appeared In the first 
American production of ''Business Ib Busi- 
ness," a three act play, adapted by Roltert 
{lichens, from the French of Octave Mlr- 
beau, tbe French title being "Les Affaires 
Sont Les Affaires." In Its orlgnsl form it 
gained great favor end there is no doubt 
that It will find many admirers here. It is 
programmed as a comedy drama, hut the 
comedy element Is so overshadowed by the 
dramatic that It becomes a simple drama. 
Isadore I.echat Is a man who has sprung 
from the common people to affluence, being, 
when the play opens, a multi-millionaire. 
Ills wealth tins been accumulated by ques- 
tionable means, his victims Including many 
men who considered blm their friend. 
His chief ' source of money making has 
been bis loaning of large sums of 
money on the estates of noblemen, and 
allowing the Interest to accumulate until bis 
victim finds It Impossible to pay either prin- 
cipal or Interest and then Lechat forcloscB. 
In this way be has secured property which 
Is miles In extent. With the Increase of bis 
wealth and lands the desire tor more pos- 
sessions grows upon him until It has become 
almost a mania. Not only is he fond of ac- 
quiring wealth but he also gives way to 
vulgar ostentation In showing bis possessions 
to any one whom he can interest. He shows 
no affection for his family except his son, 
Xavier, whose wildness and dissipation he en- 
courages and admires. Ills daughter, Ger- 
nialne, always having lived a loveless life, 
learns to hate both of ber parents and forms 
an attachment for Luclen Garrand, a young 
chemist In Lecbat's employ. The Marquis 
De Porcellet, who Is already lu Lechnt's 
debt to the extent (Including principal nnd 
Interest) of 1,820,000 francs, desires another 
loan on his property, which is valued at ten 
times the sum. This property adjoins Le- 
cbat's and he has long cherished the hope 
that It would one day be his. He had fully 
determined to wrest it from the Marquis 
but suddenly conceives tbe Idea of marrying 
his daughter to tbe son of tbe Marquis. The 
old Marquis has a fight with his pride but 
tbe prospects of once more having his estates 
free and clear (this being Lechnt's propo- 
sition) Is too tempting for him to resist. 
His pride having been conquered be con- 
sents to see Germalne and ber mother. How- 
ever, when be finally asks Mrs. Lechat for 
her daughter's hand In marriage to bis son, 
Germalne throws the whole party Into con- 
sternation by declaring that she has a lover. 
The Marquis finally departs and Lechat, 
la his rage at having his plans thwarted, 
threatens to strangle his daughter and Is 
only prevented from harming her by Mrs. 
Lechnt's interference. Germalne then calls 
for her lover and Luclen appears on the 
scene and takes her In his arms. Lechat 
then curses them both and orders them from 
his door. Immediately after this Lechat 
receives the news that Xavier has been 
killed in an automobile accident and be gives 
way to the only touch of human feeling he 
displays In the play. The shock Is a severe 
one and nearly prostrates blm, In the midst 
of his grief Phlnck and Gruggh (two young 
engineers who have been endeavoring to 
interest Lechat in a business scheme of huge 
proportions) enter. Lechat motions them 
away, but they are Insistent and then the 
greed and avarice once more osscrt them- 
selves in his breast aud, with all his cun- 
ning, he dictates the terms of the contract 
between them. The contract once properly 
signed the young men depart and Lechat 
again gives way to his grief end with 
the papers of agreement In bis hand 
he totters off to see the body of his 
son, which, the audience Is Informed, 
has been brought home. From this brief 
outline It will be seen that there Is little 
lightness to relieve the sombre story The 
character of Lechat differs wildly from any- 
thing In which Mr. Crane has appeared for 
many years and Is a role which calls for 
much greater dramatic skill than thoso 
breezy characters In which the present day 

finXI!?«? n 1 ve 8e ! n ^ tne Popular actor. 
While there is much that Is blatant In the 
character there Is considerable subtlety 
called tor and from tbe time of Gcrmalnea 
declaration concerning her love for Luclen 
until the final curtain passionate anger. 
scorn, contempt, hatred and grief, one 
after another fill the breast of^ the 
man who has given up bis soul to tbe 
worship of wealth. But varied as are 
these changes Mr, Crane was equal to the 
task and from first to last his performance 
was of high calibre. He was always artistic, 
never once forgetting the chief motive In the 
HLM" .man be was Impersonating, and. 
JES t i£i p ! ay mtty "J? 1 ,?"* the great public 
favor which some of Mr. Crane's vehicles 
livno won, his performance of the role of 
Isadore Lechat will win him an enviable 
place In the annals of the stage. His bud- 
l>ort was excellent Kntherlne Grey was 
very effective as Germalne, and Harriet Otis

flew Lynenm Theatre (Daniel Fn.i, 
man, manager). — This house opened Tum 
day evening, 8ept. 18, with a large audience 
to Witness a double event— the stellar dehm 
of Cecilia Loftus snd the Initial proiliietl,, 
of the "Serlo-Comic Governess," n ronieav 
In four acts, by Israel Zangwlll, drainatlzeii 
from his story of the same name. ii r Zatui. 
will has endeavored to provide Miss Loftu« 
with a stage work to display her varied 
talents, and has succeeded well. Tbe nl>> 
deals with tbe career of a young con™,, 
bred girl, Eileen O'Keefe, In her endeavor, 
to support her mother. We are IntrodiioNi 
to Eileen at devotions In the Convent of th» 
Good Shepherd, County Clare, Ireland nn.i 
shortly nfter, under the Influence of bar sS 
soclates, she displays the vivacity of a elri 
Ish, fun-loving; nature, singing a rolllckW 
Irish soDg with the school girls as a chorus 
Impishly changing to a chant as the Motlier 
Superior enters. Next she tells a storv 3 
a young wife who led a double life, in that 
while dutiful In tbe day time, she assumni 
the character of a wolf at night, roarX 
through the woods. Her husband shoots thS 
wolf In the foreleg, and In the morniii K fin u 
his wife with one of her arms in i slbw 
This anecdote she offers in palliation of hep 
avowed intention to lead a double life in on 
Innocent manner. She has a fllrtnllon wl 
Jack Doherty, an Irish guardsman on da li- 
near the convent, and hides blm from ti,i 
Mother on her entrance. He asks her 
to marry him, but she puts him off \\l, 
mother enters and begs her to listen to 
O'Flanagan, who has secured a mortrare n 
their castle, but she refuses him, and dnaiiw 
consents, In order to save her mother distress 
O'Flanagan has disappeared, however, leaving' 
Mrs. O'Keefe, who then denounces him nnd 
Eileen determines to become a governess or 
companion, leaves the convent, and finds out 
that Jack Is off to Afghanistan to war. The 
second act, tbe action of which occurs three 
years later, finds her a companion to Mrs 
Mnper, a vulgar noutieau riche, who presumes 
upon every one, and is generally disliked, even 
by her husband and son, The latter, Ruber 
is n book-worm, nnd quite In love with* 
Eileen, whom he meets clandestinely in ti,„ 
library. She, however, Is true to her soldier 
love. Montmorency Josephs, called "Fossy " 
a music hall manager, calls on Mr. Mniii-r 
regarding the presenting of a stock company 
In tbe town, and with him Is his wife, Xlar- 
celle, who has formerly been a schoolmate of 
Eileen. In discussing the productions the 
latter questions the advisability of a stock 
company, mentioning the drawing powers of 
stars such as Bernhardt, Terry, Itehan and 
others, and Imitates their work. Fossy asks 
her to Join bis company as a star, but she 
declines. Mrs. Mnper later discovers Rob- 
ert proposing to Eileen, and tbe result is that 
the lntter leaves her employ. Two years 
later shows her as governess to Mrs. Lee" Car- 
ter's children during the day, and as Nellie 
O'NcIl, nuecn of the serlo-comlcS, at night 
under Fossy's management. She has de- 
termined to give up the double life, however 
renouncing the stage with the close of ibis 
night b performance (wblch Is a lienellt) 
owing to Jack's return, Robert again presses 
bis suit, not knowing of Nellie O'Nelfi's ex- 
istence. Eileen makes him promise to ko 
to the hall that night, which be does, aiid 
becomes charmed with her work. Jack sits 
lu a box, and ogles her, seeks an Introduction 
not recognizing her as Eileen and, much to 
her disgust, forces bis attentions upon her

that Nellie and Eileen are one and the same.

Is accepted as tbe curtain descends. Mr. Znng- 
wlll has written a very pretty Htory, and la 
many ways has handled his subject well, aad 
the charnctersare well and consistently drawn 
Miss Loftus has, beyond question, estab- 
lished her right to a place among the fore- 
most actresses on tbe dramatic stnge. Her 
comedy work has seldom been excelled, ber 
pathos was excellent and In her emotional 
scenes she exceeded all hones In her favor. 
The enthusiasm of tbe audience was roused 
f» the highest pitch by. her slight Inpse 
Into the old time music hall Imitations 
J" . which Miss Loftus Is unsurpassed. 
Michael McGlnnlty," a song, Introduced 
i? } b t fll ' 8t act °y Ml" Loftus, proved 
that she had a sweet, pleading Blnglng voice 
and her spontaneity In Its rendition was an- 
other of the delights of the evening. Her- 
bert Standing repeated his former successes 
In character delineation by bis excellent draw- 
ing of FosBy and kept the audience lu con- 
tinuous laughter. Eva Vincent gave a most 
artistic and pleasing performance In the role 
of Mrs. Mnper. H.. Reeves Smith did blghlv 
commendable work as Jack Doherty. Karl 
Ryder, as Robert Muper, was quite dignified 
and earnest, making as much as possible of 
the part. W. J. Butler, as Alderman Maper, 
was amusing In a small role. Julia Dean, as 
Mnrcelle, was vivacious and Interesting 
and made a good Impression. T.- Hayes 
i! u . u ,t er ^Qeorge Le Solr, Emmett Shnckleford. 
Nellie Butler and Rose Hubbard gave good 
support In their character work. Charles 
Howsor made all possible of the diminutive 
part of O'Flanagan, and Kate Pattlson Sel-

necessary for that distinguished person. The

Mil In a new act, "Winning a Queen." The 
Idea Is original and cleverly worked out and 
through the untiring- efforts of the.trlo should 
be successful. Harding and Ah Sid, old fa- 
vorites here, were given a warm welcome and 
caused many laughs by their grotesque and 
clever acrobatic work. Lottie Gllson and

trip and judging from the cordial reception 
of his clever work his success abroad Is as- 
sured. The Rlva Brothers made their Ameri- 
can debut and delighted every moment by

batic and balancing work. Adamlul and Tay- 
lor pleased In vocal work; Mile. Olive pre- 
dated clever aud dainty juggling acts; the
