JAMES O'NEILL-James O'Neill is head

usual interest attaches to his annual tour
this season. as he will be seen here for the
first time in his daShing Interpretation of
D'Artagnan, the fiery Gascon, in Liebler &
Co.'S stupendous scenic and spectacular pro-
duction of 1.-THE Musketeers." The char
acter OF D'Artagnan. the brave lad who
his sword and the love for every pretty
woman he met. is probablyethe greatest in
the whole gallery of romantic creations.
wi. oy uuey uFunOy, lHe autioI VI tHiS Wei
sion, has made an entirely new play out of
Alexander Dumas old story. That the
play is fine piece Of dramatic construc-
ton may be inferred from the fact that
Beerbohm Tree appeared in 1t for eight
consecutive months at Her Majesty's The
alter, London, and Mr.. O'Neiil was seen in
1t for nearly the whole spring season at
the Broadway Theater, New York, last
year. The Liebler people brought over Mr..
Trees stage manager to superintend the
American production. He was given carte
blanche to go ahead untrammeled as far
as expenses were concerned, and 1t Is estf-
mated that nearly 900 was expended in
cold cash before the first rise of the cur
tain. This same matchless production is
carried intact this year.
ROSE COGHLAN-Miss Rose Coghlan,
one of the best and most popular actresses,
who Is this season starring in THE White
Heather comes to the Academy Of Music
week of October 2 The play had one of
the longest and most successful runs ever
known at the Academy of Music in New
York, and is this season presented with
strong supporting company and all the
original and costly scenery and beautiful
costumes. The piece is melodrama by
Cecil Raleigh and Henry Hamilton, the
Weli-known authors of 1.-THE Sporting
Duchess" Any thought of expense in
staging the piece has never entered the
brain Of the management. for without
doubt The White Heather is the finest
scenic production of recent years. There
are lcl great SCENES Oh an original nature
that picture in a remarkable manner the
different localities associated with the
story. There is a magnificent ball room
scene. in which diver is lowered from
his boat to the bottom Of the sea. 1t is
not only a sensation. but clever piece of
scenic realism which has never been sur
passed on the American stage. 1.-The White
Heather" should draw crowded houses dur
ing it's run here.
