character of British tourists that Hallon
and Hart create the iyeliest fun, and their
efforts to disgust American paterfamilias
with his English visitors keep the au-
dicncc good natured. The company sup
porting the stars is one of the best, and Is
decidedly the strongest musical comedy
organization that Messrs Hallen and Hart
soubrettc, plays fdusv Weed, an American
girl who has no prediction for a British
husband. The part of Rose Seed Is done
by the popular Mollie Fuller. I.otta
Nicol, the skirt dancer, and Adele Far
rinpton and Marie Stanley appear as
Woiiic Waits and 7Wy 7rpps, while Miss
Ada Somers, the clever soprano, gets lots
Of fun out Of Tdtchouid Seed. The sheriff
anxious to distinguish himself is played
by the eccentric Irish comedian Joe J.
Sullivan; the parts OF Hayes Seed, the
American father, and Miidmdy Smiles, q
student in hard luck, are in the hands of
John Il. McWade, the well-known bari
tone, and Harry Hilton, the tenor.
Latest European and American singing
specialties will be introduced. Seats will
be placed on sale tomorrow morning.
