MARY MANNERING APPEARS TO-
NIGHT
cemetery

Tonight at the Hyperion Mary Man
nering, a distinguished. charming and
ever welcome player; add to that THE
Stubbornness of Geraldine" the new
est play by Clyde Fitch, an author who
is on the topmost wave of fame and
popularity; and add to that again a
production by Frank Mckee, Miss Man
nering's manner, which will eclipse any
other production, no matter how elab-
crate, yet given to one of Mr.. Fitch's
plays, and you will have a combination
, hard to surpass. 1t is certainly one to
conjure with and it has acted magital-
ly at the Hyperion's box otffce-one of
the largest advante sales known in it's
history.
Miss Mannering has been held in high
| esteem by New Haven's play-goers ever
since her first appearance here and
such succeeding visit has seen widen
ing of her popularity and an increase
of her. artistic reputation. She has
won, not alone by her work on the
stage, but by personality so charm
ing, winsome and girlish that it crossed
the footlights and impressed the spec
tators fully as delightfully."- as did her
art. So, when Mary Mannering comes
to town, it may safely be said that she
faces friends, and friends only. Surely
no handsome matinee idol ever had a
greater throng of schoolgirl worship
| pers than she. On matinee days they
fairly mob her. Every one will want to
see her in THE Stubbornness of Ger
aldine." Mr. Fitch wrote the play es-
pecially for her, and in the chief char
acter he is said to have fitted both her
art and her temperament with marvel
Gus fidelity He has given her ample
opportunity to. exercise her gifts as a
fascinating coincidence. and he has
also provided her with some scenes of
emotional strength, the latter in pur-
suance with Miss Mannerings ambition
to gradually enter field of more seri-
Gus endeavor than that with which she
has thus far been connected. But this
will in reality be exploiting no new
phase of her art, for the reason that
! her performance last spring in 1.-The
Lady of Lyons" made play-goer aware
of the fact that she possesses excep-
tional power for emotional work. In
any event, no matter what else may
come to the Hyperion this season, Mary
Mannering in 1.-THE Stubbornness of
Geraldine" will be one of it's most in
teresting and attractive Bills. The per-
Torrance will be repeated tomorrow,
matinee and night
That clever actress and beautiful wo-
man. Amelia Bingham, of whom so
much has been said and written, not
only on account of her talent as an ac-
tress, but her business ability as well,
will no doubt be greeted with a crowd
ed house on the occasion of her first
visit here in "A Modern Magdalen." at
the Hyperion next Monday night Miss
Bingham, unlike most stars, has with
most becoming modesty, surrounded
herself with players of acknowledged
ability and reputation, and no stronger
dramatic company will appear here this
season. as can be verified by the names
of such talented players as Henry E.
Dixey, Milton Lackaye. Joseph Holland
Ferdinand Gottschalk. Hobart Bos-
worth, Alfred Fisher, Madge Carr
Cooke, Lucille Spinney, Adele Earring
ton, Rose Braham. Maud Moffat. Lii
liam Wright, Robert Dudley, William
Moore and George Eichel.
Klaw and Erlanger will present Gus
and Max Rogers in the, new vaudeville
farce 1.-THE Rogers Brothers at Har-
ward" next Tuesday and Wednesday
nights. The company supporting the
Rogers brothers has always been noted
for the large number of pretty girls in
it's chorus. This part of the organiza-
ton this season will number fifty-six.
who will represent the most careful Sc
lection that could be made out of the
two thousand girls who work in this
capacity on the American stage. Pau
line Frederick. of Boston, young Back
Bay society girl, will be one of the most
conspicuous of the Rogers brothers
support She was born on the Back
Bay and brought up in the most exclu-
sive circles of the Hub, and is a re-
markahly attractive young woman.
This is her first appearance on the
stage, and she will play the character
of Ray. a college girl. She is lust
eighteen years old.
"Heartsease' is announced for pro-
duction at the Hyperion next Thursday
night with Henry Miller in his favor
lite role of Eric Temple, and a specially
organized New York cast This will
be Mr. Miller's farewell tour with
"Heartsease.'

A land, immortalized by Daniel
Boone, Kentucky" was the scene Of
the action of the play at the Grand
opera house, last evening, the title IA
Kentucky Feud."
1t is a mountain romance OF the
"Moonshine'' district, magnificently
staged and produced by a star cast.
The dialect of this section of the coun-
try is particularly hard to initiate and
it was noticeable to all who attended
last evening and who are at all familiar
with it, that the imitation was perfect.
