 Next Friday Charles Frohman will present at the Hyperion theater the latest and very successful play, "Colo- rado," that won New Yorks commen- dation, and the cast here will be the same. The scenes of the play are laid in the Rocky Mountains. and MT. Thomas has preserved the bracing ana exhilarating atmosphere which the title suggests. With the exception of ''Aristocracy," Mr. F'rohman says that he has never had so strong an aggre- gation of players in one cast as will ap- pear here, The list includes Wilton Lackaye, Francis Carlyle Maude Hoff- man, John w. Albaugh, Jr., J. M Col vile, Horace Lewis, Violet Rand, Jean Newcombe, Rose Cooke, Christine Blessing, Henry Hall, Louis Eagen, Frank Donovan, Herbert Pollard Frank Kemble, Clement Kirby, Hearn Collins, William T. Simpson, Lawrence Sheehan, Francis Conlan, MOTHS Frank, Harry Gibson, David Higgins, Thomas Lambson, William T. James MT. Paderewski will be at the Hy- perion on Tuesday night, February 4, to give one recital and his critics Will again resolve him into a sun myth and spin literary webs out of his yellow locks. Take for instance the following from the pen of a distinguished French critic His winged reputation; the beautiful countenance of fallen an- gel whose mysterious fire the pencil or Burne-Jones knew how to seize; his Masaccio hair, framing in artistic dls- order the face of Lucifer, whose aureoie has been changed into hair; his refined and subtle spirit; the rare grace of his manner proclaim the elevation of his genius"
 But Alfred Nossig, the librettist of "Manru" has gone even further. The name of a grand piano In German IS f flugel-a wing. Nossig has connected the open lid of this instrument with the pinions of the Babylonian seraph with six wings, as described in the Blple' with twain he covered face, with twain he covered his feet, and with twain did 1 he hy." And as he has come down to us in the sculptures of the winged Babylonian lion with human face. Tn the lines of PaderewsBis head and in his figure" proceeds Nossig, there is something which lends itself most happily to the complement of an open grand piano. When he plays he seems to grow into one with 1t. We even be- lieve that we are gazing upon a winged seraph and listening to his mighty song" G
 The widest admirer of Wagner $ muse never achieved anything more grotesque than this.
