ENTERTAINMENTS
Hyperion Theater. RICHARD MANSFIELD AT THE HYPERION.


 | A great dramatic and social event is always the appearance of Richard
 Mansfield, who will be seen in "Beau- caire" at the Hyperion Saturday night, November 9. This year he has sur passed all his former work in a com edy in 'Beaucaire" in which he is given the happiest of opportunities for i characterization and acting of witty, princely lover of French tongue, but ! English adventures. The cast of ' 'Beaucaire" is a long one. There are tWenty-six speaking parts and almost as many more people of experience to complete the picture of the smart set of Bath when Beaucaire played his It. | lie comedy with Lady Mary and the 1 Duke of Wintersett The play is in five acts. Far from being a dramatization of Monsieur Beaucaire," the author, Booth Tarkington admits that his book is merely a scenario of the play. The picture of the fopperies of swagger English water place under the social sway of Beau Nash is the colorfu back ground of the comedy, but the dressing is that familiarly known as Louis VX for the constitutional monarch of France only, the cousin of "Beaucaire the Barber" was in reality the dictator of the worlds fashion. There are still good seats for sale Prices s25O, $2, $15O, $1.
 York State Follzs,' Arthur Sidmans new pastoral comedy, comes to the Hyperion next Tuesday night with all the nractipl of o mot nd the unanimous endorsement of the metropolitan press. The season of the production opened at the Chestnut Street Opera house, Philadelphia, and will be brief one on the road, as the New York engagement begins next month. The presentation is said to be unusually leaborate, two carloads of scenery by Voegtlin being used. The company numbers fifty people, includ- ing such well known artists as James Lackaye, Ray Royce, Ernest Lamson and Arthur Gregory. York State Folks" presents a delightful picture of domestic life in a typical American will lage, and has been hailed by the press as the legitimate successor to "The Old Homestead" and Shore Acres" Seats on sale Saturday.

 Josef Holman will give a piano re- cital at the Hyperion on Thursday night, November ii. He plays Bach Beethoven and the compositions of the other old masters unlike any other pianist, for Holman never seeks to dis play his wonderful talents to the derti- ment of the compositions he is render ing. Again, he plays the Chopin num- bers, waltzes. mazourkas, nocturnes, etudes, in a manner that keeps his audiences in ecstacy. At his late re- citals in New York city the audience could hardly restrain it's applause un- til he ended number. Seats on sale Tuesday. Prices s1.50, s1 and 75 cents.
