The NationnI-Annie Russell

Charles Frohman viii present Miss An
ME Russell in a Royal Family" at the
National Theatre for six nights and two
matinees beginning Monday evening This
play tells the prettiest and most delight
ful love story ever told upon the stage,
and in it Miss Russell has made a really
phenomenal triumph. She has just closed
a run Of nearly 200 performances at the
Lyceum Theatre, New York, every one
Of which was given TO a standing-room
audience. Ia her closing weeks there
the actress was obliged TO give extra
rnatiuees to accommodate the demand for
the play. Never before IN the history Of
the fashionable Lyceum Theatre has
there been such Il positive and brilliant
success. artistically and financially.
A Royal Family was written by
Capt. K. Marshall. known already to the
American public by his charming comedy
Ills EXcellency the Governor. "A
Royal Family is n romantic comedy with
. decided Anthony Hope flavor in its
conception and "a jerome i. jerome Clev-

lit up with pretty and sparkling senti-

sweet young princess who Is won by the

could never win her hand. OF course, she
has not seen the prince In question at
the time she fatty refused TO obey her
ROYAL parents by accepting him in mar
Tiage. But the prince, aided and aDetted
by TOflHHIIfdllN litlllFl taINllhi, pre-
tended to be somebody else, when he met
the princess, and it is unnecessary 10 add
that his conquest was complete as it
was comparatively easy.

plicity and beautiful Haturalness of her
acting wovc spell for New York thea

II was triumph of gentle and graceful
histrionism embodied in one of the most
winsome wOmanly characters ever seen
upon the stage.

to be especially captivating With Miss

Chnse's-DeIIn Fox in Vaudeville.

Della Fox's advent in polite vaudeville
at Chase's this week seems likely to prove
one of the most pleasurable events of the
season, especially to those who in days
that are by regarded her as the only di-
vinity Of comic opera. Who has not felt
the magnetism from her merry wink aud
noted the fact that she wore one rip
pling curl down her forehead? After a
long spell of illness the return of health
and the recently possessed happiness cf
marital felicity are said to have re-
created her. and there is no evidence now
that at one time not long ago it was
graVeiy believed that she would mover
see the footlights again.
Miss Fox has only been in vaudeville
since this season opened, but she has
sung herself into as great favor there as
with the audiences that thronged to hear
her with De Wolf Hopper She wears a
jauuty masculine garb, after the style
she inaugurated in THE Little Host and
sings a number of popular songs, together
with several of her former favorites.
