FRANK DANIELS TONIGHT

The stories which Harry B. Smith has
written for the two operas which Frank
Daniels has engaged to produce in this
city this week, opening tonight, entitled
The Idofs Eye" and THE Wizard of the
Nile,' are said to be by far the very cleV-
crest which have come from the fertile
brain of this young American librettest.
Both were written with a view to supply
ing the inimitable and Irresistible Daniels
with material peculiarly adapted to his
unique personality and style of humor.
The part assigned to Daniels in THE
Idols Eye" is that of an American bal
loonist, who, while touring the world in
search of adventure, falls into the sea
at the foot of a British garrison in India,
and, upon crawling out onto dry land, i'm
mediately proceeds to get mixed up into
all sorts of Danielesque complications.
In the other opera. THE Wizard of the
Nile" Daniels part is that Of a wander
ing fakir. who lands in the court of Ptol-
envy, in Cleopatra's barge, which he has
found floating on the Nile. For this sac
rilege he is condemned to death, but es-
capped by causing the Nile to rise. and so
putting an end to a terrible drought.
