In the writing of plays the author
not only injects into his dialogue the
effects of light and shade, but ne
should also give similar attention to
the background, or the light will
lose its brilliancy and its shadows
deepen. In writing ..Shaft No. 2"
the electrical comedy drama which is
to bold the boards of Harper's thea
tire this evening, the author, Frank
L. Bixby, took cognizance of this I'M
portant fact aad alternated in the
action and story the light shades OF
comedy and the darker hues of pa
thos.
"Jane," which is by far the best of
all the light farcical comedies given
on the stage in the last four years,
comes to Harper's theatre for an en-
gagement of one night next Tuesday.
Those who saw it last year. want to
see it again, and those who failed to
see it. and who enjoy hearty laugh.
should not fail to see it. 1t will be
presented by Frohman's splendid
comedy organization.
