Otis Skinner will present his attractive
play at the Metropolitan tomorrow night.
This is "Rosemary' AS played by Otis
Skinner and his company OF metropoli-
tan players this promises to afford
dramatic treat. In addition to his own
fine impcrsonatio of the romantic char
acter of Sir Jasper Thorndyke, with it's
high comedy and frequent pathetic
touches, Mr.. SINNERS leading woman,
dainty and artistic Miss Gretchen Lyons,
win be seen in the role of Dorothy
Cluickshank. Miss Lyons won I'M
stmted praise for her youthful beauty
and graceful acting as leading woman
in the production of The Mysterious Mr..
Bugle" last season. Otis Skinner por-
trays the part Of Sir Jasper with the fine
taste and picturesque dramatic effort
that has distinguished all his characters
since he first produced His Grace de
Grammont." A swagger, romantic part
is best suited to Skinner. and in Rose
mary" he has the best opportunity for
the display of those cultured graces that
make his characters so entertaining to an
audience
In the first act Sir Jasper discovers tho
young clippers, Dorothy CruickShank and
William Westwood, stranded in the rain
outside of the old English home at Ingle
hall. Their horse has run away. the old
chaise is broken down and the detected
lovers are the picture OF woe. Sir Jas
per, then a disappointed bachelor OF
nearly 49, pities their plight and takes
them In for a drive. Soon after the
father and mother of Dorothy arrive in
pursuit OF the runaways They have
also had a breakdown and are likewise
taken in by Sir Jasper for the night.
The next morning Sir Jasper. having
become greatly interested IN his unin-
Vited guests IS at his wits end to pre-
vent the inevitable scene His cold heart
warns up to little Dorothy. and her
pretty ways win his love- which he Is

forced to conceal. William, who has
eloped with Dorothy, ia stranger to
the elder Cruickshank, and is mistaken
for Sir Jaspers son. He is a fine APP
pearing young fellow, and the old folks
warm up to him. When Dorothy ap-
pears at the breakfast table there is Il
happy reunion, and all start for London
as Sir Jasper's guests, to bring about
the marriage In the right sort of way
and witness the coronation ceremonies OF
the young Queen Victoria, then taking
place. There are a number of very pic
turesque quarrels between the young
lovers, owing to William growing jeal-
Gus of Sir Jasper's admiration and deli
cate attentions to Dorothy. When the
young people are wed Sir Jaspers pent-
up affections burst forth in fit of
broken-hearted sobbing. The last act IS
the sequel, during the Queens jubilee.
and Sir Jasper Is once more seen at the
little old coffee house In London, where
the wedding party had stopped fifty years
before. The chance for character study
of Sir Jasper at this time affords Mr..
Skinner his strongest work In the play
and one that sheds sanity halo about
the character

nights and Wednesday matinee, COM

3 NEW YORK, April 29.-Rev. Dr. Jo-
seph Silverman CHebrew) preached today
in the Temple Emanuel on the subject of
Modern BIZ = rsm.'' He began by
briefly relating the recent lynchings In
Georgia and then said in part:
what an awful, horrible spectacle our
country thus presents to the student of
history and to the world at large. Here
we have been protesting against the bar
barities Of the Spanish government and
have carried ON a war in the name of
humanity and justice, while within our
own borders such nameless torture and
terrible persecution are permitted to hold
sway
There is something radically wrong
with the machinery of our government
when the mere recital Of few doggerel
verses at private banquet can stir up
the feeling of two nations and the interest
of the world can be made the matter of
even a brief diplomatic interview and
the subject of cabinet sessions, while this
wanton, brutal,i torture and slaughter of
men without trial Is brushed aside by the
president Of the United States as a mat
ter with which the national government
has no connection. When the state off,

ecution. If the state authorities are in

CoREAN CRISIS.

Many of the Leading Men of the
Country Thrown Into Prison.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 49, - The
steamer America Naru brought the fol-
lowing correspondence to the Associated
Press, under date of Seoul, Corea, March
20:
During the past winter the Corean
government has passed through another
Of those crises which have marked her re-
cent history with such regularity. The
liberal element which tried to make it
self heard was defeated and today we
see the same condition of affairs which
existed in the days when Corea thought
she could defy all attempts to civilize her.
The prisons are packed with men who
opposed what they believed to be fatal
retrogression. They have been given no
trial or opportunity to speak for them
selves. The government is in the hands
of the most conservative element of the
land. Financially they are making ends
meet by minting money which may result
In a discount, which will add heavy bur-
dens to the people and finally to the gov
eminent itself If Corea can be financed
They are working to secure a foreign
loan"

her mother to learn to paint. Van Wis

and in this disguise wins the CID lady's
consent to the marriage OF Alefha to his
brother, meaning himself.
The counterpart, Mr.. Wigs, goes TO
New York with the intention of blowing
the top of Ponsonby's head off for clipping

representing it to be Ponsonby's, in order
to stop Wigs from shooting Ponsonby.
Mr.. Wigs takes possession of the Keys,
forgives Ponsonby and accepts him as his
son-in-lGW
The second act finds Ponsonby be-
wildered man, being one day rich and
the next day poor. In order to keep the
ball rolling, Ponsonby is jollied up by
Van Vlissengen who makes him believe
that the mansion is really his own, and
not a dream. Wigs proposes to Mrs.
Middlecroft but is refused. because he
has TOO Much Money" Van Vlissengen
advises Wigs to sign over all his money
and property to his son-in-law and daugh-
ter In order to be poor enough to marry
Mrs Mddlecroft. In the third act Van
Vlissengen succeeds in winning the old
lady's consent to his marriage with
Aletha. and Immediately takes off his
feminine apparel. Wigs, who has become
poor by signing over his property to his
children, gains the consent Of Mrs. Middle
croft to their union. Hannah O'Houli-
han, the housekeeper Of Van Messengers
aunt comes in unexpectedly and proves
to Wigs that Ponsonby is not the lawful
owner. Van Vlissengen explains that in
order to win his lady love. he was COM
pclled to strategy, and told Wigs that
Ponsonby was richer in order to keep
him from killing Ponsonby.

by Mr.. w. P. Davis, the veteran scenic

Inc subject represents mammoth
landscape in gorgeous frame: in the
foreground we see the limpid waters of
beautiful lake, set Ike sparkling gem
In cluster of towering hills, with the
blue sky of Italy overhead. In the dis
lance the hills rise, tier on tier, to the
dim horizon line where earth and sky
blend In a. film of delicate, shadowy color.
The perspective is exceptionally good, the
impression of great distance being
brought out with remarkable effect.
On the right can be seen portion Of
the walls of an Italian castle with broad
marble steps leading down to path
which extends across the foreground, and

single rug-covered step leading to the
ground line; on either side massive pill
lars support a canopy over the picture.
Heavy draperies hang. from the canopy,
Topped back in graceful folds on either
side of the frame. The colorings are
bright and harmonious, the treatment
artistic and pleasing, and the general ef-
fetc all that could be desired. The new
drop-curtain will be an ornament to the
handsome auditorium Of which Manager

in nearly every musical portfolio Thor
