ESTERT4ISM ENIS.
Hyperion Theater.


 A crowded house greeted Frank Dan iels and his company in one of the op- | cratic hits of the season entitled Miss l Simplicity. It is always pleasure to spend an evening with Dan,els and it seems that each year he is greeted with a larger audience and judging from the continued applause last night he still has many friends in this city who are always glad to welcome him here. This is enc of tine best plays that Daniels has ever had and this no doubt accounts for the very large audience last night. As usual he is surrounded by an ex- ceptionally good cast made up of lead CTS in their respective lines of work. Especially good was the chorus work, and the dash and beauty of the fair women went very much to make up the excellence of the performance. Among the principal musical numbers were The Kings Own" With All Proprie- ty." Don't Mind Me" The Chest nutty Language of Lovers He Did It So Politely" "Rosalie," ''The Sun day School Boy" and When Will My Dream Come True The cast con tained such well known people az Will liam Danforth, Tom Tickets, Owen Westford, Helen Lord, Allene Crater and Grace Belmont.
 'EBEN HOLDEN"
 There is every reason to expect that the "Eben Holden of the stage, as he is to be played by F. M. Holland at the Hyperion next Thursday night will equal in charming quality the original Eben Holden" of Irving Bacheller's novel, and is sure to delight the play soers. Edward R. Rose has made the dramatization and is said to have met the occasion with result that will be in no way disappointing to those who regard "Eben Holden as one of the strongest and happiest characters of modern fiction. It is certain that Charles Frohman has been wise in his selection of MT. Holland to play the part. MT. Holland, endeared to all by long and honorable association with the best interests of the stage, is just the man to give "Eben Holden the ad- vantages of delicate art and an amia ble, hearty personality. But the play also tells in we'll rounded form a pretty y, bringing Eben Holdens quaint humor into just the right relief. Seats now on sale Prices $150, $1, 75c.
