The average theater-goer who goes to
the play and carelessly scans the pro-
gramme, reads the cast of the per-
Torrance, dwells upon the names OF
the principal players, seldom gives
much thought to the name of the man
ager. The popular custom seems to be
to regard the manager as sort of
necessary evil. a mere appendage to
the rest. But how unjust is this. The
whole burden of the production liter
ally rests upon the man whose name is
in small type. The actor is an artist.
His time is taken up solely by what
happens on the stage. His manager is
the power behind the throne. Robert
B. Mantell, who viii be at the Opera
House next Friday night, December
18th, has won a great success in his
new dramatic triumph, 1.-THE Dagger
and the Cross" Every one is talking
about Mantell. about the play, about
its superb mounting. But only those
with intimate knowledge OF things
theatrical pause to note that NJ. w.
Hanley is the manager. And therein
may be read large share of the story
of success. Mr.. Hanley for thirty
years has been most prominent as a
theatrical manager. one who never at
taches his name to anything that is not
the best.

1t is "The Turtle" here and The
Turtle" there and THE Turtle every
where, for the latest Partisan piquancy
and fantastic frivolity to be exploited
next Thursday evening at the Opera
House has set the town buzzing with
discussion. "The Turtle" has taken
the centre of the stage and the indica-
lions are that public attention will be
focused upon 1t until the night Of its
local presentation, when ttanding room
will be at a premium. 1t comes here
direct from its long New York run. 1t
is a breezy and bustling comedy that
has a thread of delightful sentiment
running through its most farcical cpl
sodes; it is staged with opulence and
acted with admirable art by players of
distinction. It's notable cast of players
will be brought here intact, while the
production will be identical to the
most minute detail, with that seen dur
ing its New York run. A merry play
"The Turtle" with a piquant favor that
appeals to the jaded palate, and per-
formed to an incessant accompaniment
Of laughter and applause.
