JohnstOne Bennett was out on cycling

One can't blame him much, either. In
Germany, where heavy drama reigns,
men live more slowly and easily than

appeared-tiny and captivating Alice judi
son. This little woman is now the come
dienne of the Hopper combination, and
if all that is said of her proves true. she
is going to make the biggest sort of a
hit on her coming. In the new piece she
has a very important role, that of Ka-
trinka, advance agent for the Charlatan.
In the first two acts she masquerades as
a boy, and the photographs of her now
to be seen in the lobby of the National
show that she makes delightful one.
In the latter part of the second scene
and throughout the third, up TO the de-
nouement, Miss JudsOn plays the role of
bogus princess.
1t is said that the costumes and scenery
of The Charlatan' are very likely TO
prove a sensation. The attires worn in the
opera alone cost more than the entire
production of Eel Captain" which was
a very expensive affair. Thus the we'd
ding sceI.s in the second act brings out
twenty of the chorus wearing gowns
which were rated at s175 each.

he attached no particular Importance to

Shortly after the thing fell down. and

picked il up and put it back in place
Then Jake's interest became curiosity
and he took advantage of the mans ab-
sence from the car a moment later to
lean over and gain possession of the
Tneerschaum. He examined it carefully
and curiOusly. but without effect. The
outer top had been screwed into place,
and try as he might, the representative
of Broadhurst's farces was unable TO
open H. The bowl seemed fun of some
thing or other sinces it was exceptionally
heavy. and finally Jake put the stem to
his mouth and drew upon it. There was
a slight gurgling sound, seconds
pause. and something liquid flowed into
the mouth Of the astonished manager.

admitted the air necessary to sucking the
drink into the lips. Just why the tenn

discovered, but he declares that if he

he is going TO learn where that man has
