GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Howard Halls new melodrama.
kidnapped in New York" with
Barney Gilmore the comedian and
character actor as the star. is an
nounced at the Opera House to-
night and tomorrow night. The
celebrated Baby Clark kidnapping
case in the great metropolis fur
nished some incidents and scenes
for this play and wildly represent
phases of lite in Manhattan Bor-
ough as it really is. The dominant
element in Mr.. Halls up-to-date
work is ''heart interest that ap-
peals forcibly to fathers, mothers
and their children.
John Brandon, treasurer of the
Manhattan Boat Club is convinced
and serves time for a crime of
which he is innocent, namely, steal
ing 1000, from the Club safe.
Mary, his daughteris left penniless
but Mr.. Dooley, (Mr. Gilmore's
character) aids her because he
loves her. Underth name of Mary
Mention she becomes the governess
of Elsie, child of John Clark, Il
wealthy man living on the Hudson
River. Signor Mazziotti, a villain
GUS noblemen who knows the Bran
dons visits Clark and discovers
Mary. He reveals her identity and
she is discharged. Then he and
his accomplice known as "Birdy"
kidnap Baby Elsie in Central Park
where they are seen by Dooley dis
guised as laborer. He finally,
after long search disguised as
vender discovers the noblemen and
Elsie in a ''kidnappers den on the
East side, rescues the child and re-
stores her to her father. The Ital-
ian vainly tries to fastcn the crime
on Dooley. The story ends with
the betrothal of Mary and Doolcy
and the nobleman's and Birdy's
arrest.
In unfolding the plot some real
istic and beautiful scenic pictures
are shown that are particularly in
teresting to persons who have never
visited Greater New York.
