The second production of Caroline Beau
mont's charming comedy, 'tMr. Schuyler's
Fiancees," will be put on as a matinee per-
formance at the Metropolitan theater this
afternoon. The play is to be repeated by
request Of many who were unable, owing to
the oVer-crowded condition of the house
Wednesday night to get seats. While little
fault could be found with the comedy as pre-
sented Wednesday night, it is always con-
ceded that the second performance of any am
ateur play is smoother than the first and
no doubt "Mr. Schuyler's Fiancees" will be
no exception. The boat club members are
jubilant over the success of the undertaking,
and wish to extend hearty thanks to all the
friends who gave them assistance, especially
to A. H. Stein, Mannheimer Brothers and
Mr.. French. -
