s'sinbad'' is Doing Wonderful Busi-
ness in the Great Metropolis-The
ing West-GeneraI stage News.


The town is yet filed with hard-shell
Baptists and Christian -Endeavor people,
ana the latter nave done the theater
! great deal OF service. They are, however,
The only new thing in town and Gotham
mas been greatly enlightened by their
presence.
That wonderfully successful play of
Hoyt's, "A Trip to Chinatown is yet
playing to the capacity Of Hoyt's Madi-
son Square Iheater, and deal has been
consummated by which it will remain for
Just as long as it is able TO draw. Charles
frohman, who was to have produced his
new play, Settled Out of Court there
on August Sth, for twelve weeks, will
/ therefore appear at the Miners Fifth Av-
enue Theater, instead of Hoyts Madison
! square, and everybody Is well satisfied
With the deal.
'Slnbad' is also doing a business that
is simply wonderful. The public in sum-
mertime want just such plays, and their
appreciation is only to be measured by
the length of the line at the box office
window. 'Sinbad,' is a clean, beautiful
performance, full of glorious visions for
the eye to enjoy, and nothing to offend
The mind. Alusically it is pretty, the airs
are Whlstled on the street, and the auditor
goes nome with a pleasant taste in his
mental mouth. There are a number of
changes sung each week, and the per-
1ormance seems newer upon a second
visit. Gilbert's dry humor has made
It's usual mark and, taken all in all, it
may safely be said that 'Sinbad' is sue
cess, rather!"
