Seen His Last Race.

Louisville, KY, June 30-Captain Sam
Bryant, the turfman, is dead of dropsy,
aged so years.
When the American Derby was run at
Washington park, Chicago, last Saturday,
Captain Bryant, against the advice of his
physicians, insisted on going to the race.
He was carried from his home on a couch
to the train. From the train he was borne
to the racetrack and his couch was placed
in a position so that he might view the
race, which he said would be the last he
would ever see. After the race was over
he was brought back to this city and
since then he has gradually grown weaker
until the end came tonight.

May Robson and Laura Joyce Bell
are not the only character condolences

are willing, for the sake OF dramatic
art, and the notions of playwrights, to
sacrifice good looks.

who is one OF the distinctive hits of
"A Chinese Honeymoon" makes up in
grotesque fashion as the English slavey.
All others in the cast and the chorus
girls and men are clothed in silks. cat
ins, and brocades, rich in color and
trimming Miss Barry's dresses until
the last twenty minutes of the last act
are probably as funny dcckings as were
ever put on by a woman on the New
York stage. Not only does she make
herself almost a fright" as regards her
garments. She does her hair up in a
comical style, wears the good-sized
CATERS of a man on her small feet. aGd
puts smudge OF blue grease paint on
her nose. The effect is ludicrous.
But Miss Barry is not by any means
an unattractive person off the stage.
She has an intelligent face and dresses
in quiet, good taste.

"St. Ann" Was Well Liked.

st. Ann" the new play that will be
used to open the season at the Colum-
hia Theater. is the product OF metro
politan newspaper writer who had SO
much confidence in his work that at
the end of last season he engaged a
company, thoroughly rehearsed them
and descended on Newport News, where
the piece was presented for an entire
week, Notwithstanding the fact that the
city is what is commonly known In the
theatrical world as "one night stand. 8"
Playwright Armstrong was so well
pleased with the reception of "St. Ann"
that he Immediately set about making
some minor alterations, secured a more
elaborate production than Newport
News saw and employed a cast of well
known players TO interpret the piece

New POLICY at The Empire.

The Empire Theater will abandon the
stock burlesque and vaudeville style or
performance that 1t introduced last sea-
son, and in its stead will play travelling
combinations. alternating musical com
edy with farce, farce comedy, and an
occasional melodrama.
Manager Schlesinger has booked an
unusually strong list Of attractions,
and as the Empire will be conducted as
family theater with prices within the
reach of all who care for theatrical
amusement, there is every reason to be-
lieve that the playhouse will enjoy a
season OF prosperity.
Proprietor Wegefarth. of the Empire
is in Philadelphia, conva lesciDg from an
attack of typhoid fover. which at one

Of fact. It will not in any way satirize
students or college life. and all the
prominent colleges, including those for
women, viii be represented in the
story, music. costumes and specialties.
The foundation of the idea on which
Mr.. McNally has erected his structure Oh
comicalitics is the passing of OF two
German waiters-playcd by the Rogers
Brothers-for Harvard professors. by
two young men supposed to be at col
lege. but who have never attended. de-
ceiving their uncles, who are their guar
dians. The return Of the uncles from
Europe makes it necessary for them to
cloak their pretensiors; and, as part
of their scheme, they introduce the Ger
man walters as their instructors.
Those familiar with the stage methods
of the Rogers Brothers and Mr. Me-
Nally's adroitness in originating humor-
Gus complications can imagine the funny
situations and amusing mistakes OF the
Germans.
There is a subplot of more than usual
Importance in stage creations Of this
kind, which involves the guardians and
two fashionable dressmakers, who have
become involved in New York in compli-
cations with the customs laws.
Those who have seen the new piece in
rehearsal are unanimous in the opinion
that The Rogers Brothers in Harvard
will excel in it's book, the attractiveness
of It's music, the dazzling brllliancy Of
its costuming and in the effective pic
torial manner in which its great chorus
of young women will be handled. any OF
