That Anthony Hope is capable of writing
bright, clever dialogue is we'll understood
by readers OF his famous stories. Through
all OF them runs a vein of most pleasing
wit. and this feature retained in the plays
made from his novels has helped largely to
insure their success. Daniel Frohman re-
cuested Mr.. Hope to write a comedy es-
pecialiy for his use. and the result was
THE Adventure of Lady Ursula" which is
said by those who have seen 1t elsewhere
to be one of the brightest plays ever pro-
duced. Ii is high-class society comedy,
the incidents Of which take place in and
about London in the year 172o. Sir George
Sylvester has killed his dearest friend in
duel as result Of a quarrel over
woman. and in consequence has become
recluse, having vowed never again to look
upon female face. For more than two
years prior TO the opening of the play he
has been practically entombed at his house,
near Edgware. a suburb OF London at that
time. In close proximity was the home of
the Barringtons, an old and aristocratic
family, the principal members of which
were Lord Hassenden, Lady Ursula and
their cousin Dorothy. Lady Ursula is de-
the hermit and pretends to faint on his
doorstep. Sir George orders his servants to
take her TO the porters lodge, and Lord
Hassenden. Lady Ursula's brother, fancy
ing she has been insulted, challenges the
noble recluse to a duel. Lady Ursula tries
by every means within her power to pre-
vent the meeting, Disgusting herself as
boy in order that she may come face to
face with Sir George among men. Dorothy
becomes involved In the intrigue In a way
that threatens to break her engagement
with. Lord Hassenden. but the play ends
with the reconciliation OF the lovers, while
the hermit and Lady Ursula are making
sleeps eyes at each other" In a map.ieI
that savors OF an early wedding.
The cast presenting "The Adventure of
Lady Ursula" which Is exceptionally
strong, is headed by William Morris, who
Is pleasantly remembered for his fi1e work
IN "Under the Red Robe last season. and
Frances Drake. who has been Frohman
leading woman for several years. The
mounting and costumes are certain to be
of a very high order. since the production
bears the talismanic name OF Frohman.

For the first three days of the present
week, commencing with the matinee to-
morrow afternoon. the Park is to have a
melodrama presented on an unusually elab-
crate scale. Midnight in Chinatown is
heralded as play filled with exciting stu
atoms, melodramatic climaxes and with
breeze of light comedy stirring throughout
the entire four acts A synopsis of the
story as 1t is unfolded during the first act
will suffice to show it's Accordingly inter-
esting character.
The plot begins at Mountain Top House.
a resort as well as a country home of
the owner Of Bonanza mine Sojourning
Mary. the elder, is engaged to Joe Wallace.
an engineer, who has long been associated
with Murray. owner of the mine. Late ar
rivals are Frank Meredith. an adventurer,
and his companion, Blanche GrahaTne, also
Kate Danley, an old friend of the Murrays
and the deserted wife of Meredith. With
the assistance of Miss Grahame, who Is
infatuated with Engineer Wallace, Mere
dith plans an elopement with Mary Muir
ray, who imagines herself in love with
the scoundrel because she Is dazzled by his
polished accomplishments. Mary's honest
lover, Joe, appears on the scene In time
to see Meredith kiss her hand, and prompt
ly knocks the adventurer down. Kate Dan
ley has also seen and recognized Meredith
and learned from Mary the story OF her
infetuation for him. The outraged wife
tells Mary's father what a villain Mere
dith really is but fails to inform him also
that his real name is Joe instead of Frank
Meredith. Meredith plans robbery of Mr..
Murray's safe. containing $4,000. and in
carrying IL out knocks into insensibility
Joe Wallace and Kate Danley, who at
tempt to interfere with his rascally work.
The act closes with Kate coming TO her
senses and calling wildly for Joe" her
husband. which cry is. however, mistaken
for a charge that Joe Wallace, the engi-
neer, has dealt her the blow which al
most killed her.
In the fourth act a scene has been espe-
cially arranged to enable the introduce
ton of a number of pleasing vaudeville
turns. The cast includes Louise Reming,
Edna Reming, Horace Vinton, Eda Clay

Hen.hnw and Ten Brock Thursday.

After an absence of sufficient length to
make their return eagerly anticipated, Hen
shaw and Ten Brock, the popular come
dams. are coming back TO the Park Theater
Thursday in a new comedy entitled,
"Dodge's Trip TO New York" John E.
Henshaw and May Ten Broeck are fun
makers of so much natural ability that II
matters little what sort of a medium may
be provided for them. However, their new
piece is said to be very bright and witty.
IL is full OF catchy music, most OF which
is OF recent composition. There are more
than two dozen songs and choruses scat
tered through the three acts. In the role
of Dodge, president of a country bank in
New Jersey. Mr.. Henshaw is credited with
making a greater success than when he
appeared In THE Nabobs" few years ago
Miss Ten Brock impersonates an amateur
stage manageress of opel eta. A number
OF pretty girls and clever comedians will
share In the merry-making. and thor
oughly enjoyable performance is promised.
The staging and costumes are on a very
high order. and the production is guaran-
teed TO be the equal of that given by any
musical comedy company playing popular
price houses. The engagement opens with
a matinee Thursday and concludes with
the performance Saturday night. with the
customary matinee and night presentations

The most casual reader OF theatrical
events in New York during the present sea-
son can scarcely have failed TO note the
extraordinary success achieved by the
famous English actors. Mr.. and Mrs. Ken
DIAL. IN their new comedy. THE Elder Miss
Blossom" The sojourn OF the Kendals in
the American metropolis was only curtailed
because engagements in other parts Of the
country demanded their attention.
THE Elder Miss Blossom" was written by
Ernest Hendrie and Metcalf Wood, two
prominent young British playwrights. the
former of whom was especially fitted to
arrange a play for the Kendals because of
his having been a member of their COM
pany and thus familiar with the kind of
characters they could best portray. Their
success' was attested by the run of 80
nights which the comedy enjoyed at st.
James's Theater. London. Upon this side
the cities OF New York. Boston and Phila-
delphia have reafhrmed the verdict pro-
nounced by the people of London.
The play is not altogether comedy. but has
pathetic side Of unusual appealing power.
II affords opportunities for acting Of
class rarely exhibited in the Interpretation
OF a comedy. The story OF the piece will
make this feature clear. Andrew Quick, a
Fellow of the. Royal Society. who is COM
PEELED to leave England for three years on
tour of scientific exploration. mails an
offer Of marriage to Miss Blossom, with
whom he fancies himself deeply enam-
ored. The missive, by some accident, falls
into the hands Of the elder Miss Blossom,
for whom 1t was not intended. She, too,
feels an affection for Prof. Quick, and her
emotions and actions just prior to his re-
turn home. when she is waiting in eager,
delightful anticipation. furnish an album
dance OF comedy OF the lightest and most
delicate variety. On the other hand, when
she discovers the cruel mistake that was
made. pathos quickly displaces comedy.
Mrs Kendall is said to do some of the most
finished acting of her enviabIe career In
this strong scene. There is a happy de-
nouement. brought about by the discovery
of Quick that. after all. the elder Miss Bios
som is the woman for him and his ardent
and successful suit for her hand.
The Kendals have brought with them
the original capable company which as
sisted them In winning the highest praise
from the London dramatic critics One
member Of the company, Miss Nellie Camp
bell has accompanied them upon former
visits to America Others in the cast are
Mrs. A. B. Tapping. Mr.. Rudge Harding.
Mr. Athol Forde, Mr. Frank Fenton, Mr.
Rodney Edgecombs, Mr.. p. F. Ames and
Mr.. and Mrs. G.. b. Poison.
There will be three opportunities of wit
Eessing Mr.. and Mrs. kendall in their
latest and most pronounced successful
morrow and Tuesday and Wednesday
nights.

One leg and one arm were cut { #, the other
leg broken and arm dslocated.
The trains come 10 slowly at that point,
aud the boys who are generally losfue
thereabouts have been 10 the habit of climb.
ing on the trains asd riding up 10 the depot.
and the PROBABILITY is that he met bis death
10 that way.
Who the boy is had not been found out
when the above information was obtsiued.
but be is 90 doubt one of the many of tha,
age and size to be found about tho railroad
and depot at all bours OF The day and much
