MUSIC AND DRAMA,

II will interest theater goers who love
the best that Is going in stage represen-
tations, 10 know that Louis James is 10
present an entirely new and original 70
mantle drama here on Wednesday night
next. The play Is called "A Cavalier OF
France" and is by the well known and
clever author, Espey Williams.
During the past two or three years
the public has shown a decided prefer
ence for what are called romantic plays,
in distinction 10 the modern society
drama or the old legitimate tragedy.
These romantic plays are cast in more
picturesque and heroic lines than mod
ern plays, they afford an opportunity for
handsome costuming and are filed with
stirring incidents, and at the same time
have an elemen, Of comedy, which is
distinct advantage over the old tragedies
which always landed the hero deeper
and deeper into gloom and finally. being
unable to extricate from his troubles
finished by killing him.
Mr.. James and his managers, Wagon
halls and Kemper, striving 10 keep in
touch with this popular demand. have
for some time been on the lookout FOR
such play and after many readings
OF various works. have finally decided
upon one which, in their opinion. con-
tains all the requirements for popular
approval.
The story Of the play deals with the
adventures and love affairs Of brave
gentleman, Rever des Froisac, who -
a courtier OF Henry Ill OF France.

erful Catherine Media. who hates MIN

The play abounds in romantic incl
dents and exciting situations, enlivened
by the clash os steel. which Is always
an important adjunct TO a romantic
play.
