! HARRIS BIJoU-"THE SHADOW DETEcrrvE."-
Daniel Kelly, who has played the part of
| George Thornton, the Shado,o Detectire, over
two thousand times, will present bis play at the
Bijou next week reinforced by strong COM
pany. This play is highly sensational, the
scene being laid in New York, but it 10 made
up from actual life and is true story in all
essentials Mr.. Kelly in the play also appears
I as Nurty o. Brien, an Irish policeman; Shorett,
an Italian, and Jack Bedntosser, Yankee.
There is a fine spirit Of humor pervading the
play and this adds lively interest to the
| plot and lightens what might at times be too
/ strong for comfort, as Is the case in some SEN
satlonal plays. The press everywhere speaks
well of THE Shadow Detective"
