JoHN DREW NEXT MONDAY.

One CT the very important engage
menis of the latter half Of the local
theatrical season Will be that OF
Charles Frohman's distinguished star,
John Drew. and his all-Ame-.can CONF
pany, in Henry Arthur Jones comedy
of English society mnrneIs, The
Liars" The I[ay has been a notable
suCces5 in London, where Char.es
Wyndham played the same part Mr.
Drew will essay here. Mr.. Drew had a
run Of about four mcnths with this
pay at the fashionable Empire The
atre, New York, which might be des-
ignated as a somewhat remarkable
record The play is reputed TO be bril-
hantly, keenly satirical, and yet at the
same time to have most interesting
love story. The company is a strong
one. That can be easily believed. for
John Drew never had a weak organiza-
ton. Mss Isatel Irving is the leading
woman, and others in the cast are:
Misses Jennie A. Eu 3 Ethel Barry
more. Marie Derckson, Gertrude
Gheen, GeoIgie Mendum, and Arthur
Bryon, D. H. HarlGns, Milton Lipman
James Lindsay, Frank f. Lamb, Oar
win Rudd and Gage Bennett. The COS
TUNES Of the women are the very lat
est London and Paris CONNECTIONS,
and WI, no doubt, prove magnets foi
the fair sex. 1t may be as well to ado
that 1.-The Liars" for some reason tha
win be developed cn its presentation
here, is looked upon as very much Of I
''wOman's play" while at the sam'
time being viri,e and attractive enough
for the masculine taste. The engage
ment is underlined for Monday nigh
