Farce mt the Park Theater.

"a Stranger in a Strange Land" farce
at the Park Theater, has a central idea
like that of William Golfers 1.-The Man
from Mexico" Jack Thorndike. a young
Englishman that has been going at a rapid
gait is exported 10 America by his family
with instructions to buy a ranch and set
tie down to work. He gets no farther than
New YORK, ana when he returns to mis-
home near London he has to lie intricately
TO save himself. His uncle. who thinks
himself gay DOG, sympaIn1zes with the
young man and tries to help him out OF his
difficulties. The older man is a blunderer
and only complexities affairs still more dam
gerously. The uncle has said that Thorn
dixie has brought Indian home with him
and the Indian must be produced for the
satisfaction OF the family. While the young
fellow is dressing and training a friend
TO impersOnate the Indian his busy uncle
employs a patent medicine fakir and a real
Indian. So there are two Indians in the
house The genuine redskin itches to steal,
and his master. the patent medicine man,
watches him closely. When he catches the
Indian at some trick he kicks him care

no part in the farce, but are in the COM
pany as what are Iecnnlcdlly called
"strengtheners." A strengthened" usually
is attached TO a weak entertainment and
"A Stranger in a Strange Land" does not
need one. The fellows amuse the crowd
by boxing mildly, and at the close of the
final round they pretend that they are
warmed up and would like to continue The
referee has some trouble apparently i'm
keeping the two boxers apart. They NAV
attract enough business TO more than pay
their salaries but they detract from the
entertainment, which is above the Park )
average. The company's engagement will
continue until Saturday night.

a Talk with Edgar Atchi-on Ely.

''You ask me how thought Of such cos
tunes" said Edgar Atchison Ely. THE
future dude" who IS playing at the Grand.
Il read in the papers how mannishly the
women were dressing. and l thought that
the men surely would have To resort TO
womens clothes. 1 drew a picture of a
man dressed the way 1 thought he would
dress in the time to come. I showed it to
my mother and she asked me why l didn't
go into vaudeville and play that charac-
ter. II happened that ! lost my job about
that time. 1 playing with Mrs Leslie
Carter. and appeared against her in suit
brought by one Of the company. OF course,
she had no more use for me. | adopted
the idea of a future dude, and have been
playing il ever since, but i am going 10
quit IL next year and go into a stock COM
pany in New York
II had some funny experiences while in
Europe. One time i singing in "a gar
den theater On one side of the stage was
a monkey cage, and all around the place
were hung birds in cages. My first song
had whistling chorus, which the birds
took UP, and they sang so loudly that no
one was able TO hear me. Well, that spoiled
that song My next song the monkey took
Offense at. He shook the iron bars Of his
cage, jumped up and down and made the
most horrible noises. The monkey made
the hit in that song While | was singing
the next song l noticed that three old
ladies were sitting I'm the front row knit
ting. When / got off the stage / threw up
my hands and cried: This is certainly
the limit Honsty. that is the worst 1
ever heard of.
In Europe there is a class Of people that
make their money off the performers They
are called claques, and they start and keep
up applause for the perfOrmers-that is,
If they are paid. The head claque came
TO me time, and asked me for some
money. | told him that / didn't care for
his services, but would rather have the
audience do the applauding. That night
some one started to whistling while l
on. didn't know what it meant but l
was told that it was the way that they
disapproved acts When l went on for my
second song L made little speech. in
which l asked them for an opportunity to
please them, and begged them not to con-
denim me before i had a chance. The
speech seemed to make a hit with them,
and | received a great ovation after that.
The claque started the whistling."
Mr.. Ely has set the audiences TO wonder
ing how he changes costumes so quickly.
When he appears he has all of his differ
ent suits on, and after each song he takes
off the outside suit. He is not able to do
this for himself. Everything. from his
shoes TO his hat. is changed each time. He
has two assistants, who LAY for him. be-
hind the scenes. pOunce on him when he
leaves the stage between his songs, and in
a few seconds have stripped off the outside
