1903. The play itself needs, and will
receive, a little trimming, but all in
all is an excellent specimen of the new
kind of Drama which unites comedy
and tragedy. 1t should be cut in places
and enlivened with a few good Irish
songs. Naturally the British red coat
is made to bear the scorn and ignominy
of the situation while the Irish hero
is elevated to the role of a sublunary
saint. The English playwrights have,
however, so long enjoyed the pleasure
of poking fun at Irish characteristics
that it is a perfectly fair turn about.
Mr.. Rosenquest has given this young
aspirants play a splendid setting and
supported Mr.. lyman with strong
cast. sisA
In fact, it is rare to find such sterling
actors as William H. Thompson, P.
Aug. Anderson, William Elton, Owen
Fawcett, Francis Powers and James
H. Bradbury in one organization. Mr..
Thompson played Michael Dwyer with
splendid power, and Mr.. Bradbury as
Antrim Jack almost eclipsed the hit
he made last year as the hare-lipped
man in "Eben Holden" Mr.. Elton,s
Jimmie Noonan aroused bowls of de-
light from the gallery, and Francis
Powers was a william doubly dyed in
the wool. The women were almost
by Miss Margaret Hayward, as Anne
Devlin. In the scene where the British
redcoats tried to wiring the truth out
of her Miss Hayward did admirable
work. Miss Angela Russell was a
sweet and plaintive heroine and Miss
Eva Westcott made a charming Irish
bride.

unlike the volumes of epigrams bound
in dress suits and dubbed human by
the writer's Of modern society comedy.
Their humor is the humor of ordinary
folk and their pathoS is the pathoS of
men and women who have not been
lf-Schooled in the Stoical philosophy
of Zeno. Above everything their stories
are everyday stories; often dramatic,
but. never theatrical. Anna Moore, the
young girl who has been deceived by
a mock marriage, and has come to the
home of Squire Bartlett for shelter, is
the embodiment of countless well re-
membered mothers and sisters-quiet,
clingingly affectionate and useful about
the house. Thoroughly human, too, is
gentle, patient Mrs. Bartlett, and
equally human the Squire, a genuine
admixture of Nathaniel Berry and
Dunston Kirke. Honest farm boys, such
as is David Bartlett, are not rare, nor
unfortunately are gossipS like Martha
Perkins and INSCRIPTIONS handles like
Lennox Sanderson. If Hi Holler, the
Pickwicl1ian chore boy, Prof. Sterling,
the butterfly catcher, and Constable,
Whipple, who represents the majesty
of the law, are bit overdrawn, no
one who recalls the merriment they oc-
casioned will blame the author.
The tale in which these creatures
figure is precisely the tale that might
be expected to result from their being
thrown into companionship. Local the
ater- goers will remember that Squire
Bartlett learns from Miss Perkins that
Anna Moore, who has sought refuge
with him, has passed as mistress but
didn't wear no Weddin' ring" The
squire VerifieS this information, and
despite the remonStrances of his son,
who has come to love the stranger in
their midst, faces Anna with her sup
posed sin. After giving way to a burst
of womanly 'indignation-the pent-up
emotions of years-Anna fees into the
heart of raging snoWstorm. Be-
numbed with cold, and quite uncon-
sc1ous she is found hours later by
David Bartlett, who takes her to his
heart and his hearth. The story is Of
the variety that must appeal to men
That it does so is proved by the re-
markable record which lies behind the
fresh local appearance of the produce
ton. Long runs in New York, Chicogo,
Philadelphia, Boston, San Francisco
and other cities, evidence the populari-
ty Of the offering. Way Down East
has been done 457 times in New York
and $50 times in Chicago.
The company to be seen here in the
play differs in no important particular
from that which has come to be iden-
titled with it. Persons who have wit
messed it's performance will remember
that every member of this cast is
qualified for his or her special role.

Waldron and Bryants Trocadero Bur-
lesquers come to the Star theater this
week. 1t is said the company has been
wonderfully successful, and in its class
is doing a record breaking business. East
ern centers say it is an organization
which stands squarely on merit and whose
entertainment is clean and wholesome,
and not dependent upon the methods
adopted by some burlesque companies,
which endeavor to substitute horse play
and vulgarity for comedy. The Troca-
dero> company has, it is said, the material
in it's makeup to present strictly high
class performance, and every member of
the Company has won success in his or
her particular line.
The first part presented by this organi-
cation is entitled Prince Henry's Visit"
and Larry Smith will play the part of
Prince Henry. James Sullivan will as
sumo the role of his valet and these two
clever comedians will keep the fun going
fast while they are on the stage.
The closing skit is called THE Green
lawn County Fair" and is said to be one
Of the funniest burlesques ever given to
the stage.
The olio will present Larry Smith and
Mamie Champion, clever comedy sketch
team; Carrie MaSSOney and Martha liable
man, two accomplished vocalists; the
three Herbert brothers, wonderful aero
bats; Ernest and Joe Van, brothers, high

THEATRICAL SEASON IN new
YORK BEGINS I'm A BRIL-
LIANT MANNER
DUPLICATION OF SUCCESSES
BY CHARLES FRoHMAN
Ovation for Bryan lyman as Play
wright and Star at the Fourteenth
Street Theater in His Irish Play
Robert Emmet"-John Drew's "The
Mummy and the Hummins Bird"

Special to The Globe.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-The tide Of
theatrical adventure has started this
season with nice steady flow which
seemps apt to justify our enterprising
managers in their sanguine anticipa-
tons.
New Workers seem to be growing
into steady appreciation of the drama
in its various phases and to be willing
to spend their money freely to see a
good play.
one OF the strongest proofs Of this,
apart from it's vital value as play is
the fact that "a Chinese Honeymoon"
is scheduled to hold the boards of the
Casino for the entire coming season, it
having been so thoroughly successful
and profitable during the summer. "a
Chinese Honeymoon" landed in New
York on June 2, fresh from London
successes. There has been no let-up
in the rollicking mirth and pretty tune
fulness of this brightest of all musi-
cal comedies and the same all-star
cast is there to entertain the big crowd
which packs the Casino at every per-
Torrance. In and out of New York the
name of the Casino theater awakens
the liveliest and most pleasant recol-
lections of great theatrical successes.
From there issued such splendid pro-
auctions as "Erminie," 1.-THE Belle of
New York" '"rhe Rounders," 'Floro-
dora" and many others to tickle the
fancies of theater-goers on the North
American continent. But the Sam S.
Shubert and Nixon and Zimmeran pro-
has them all distanced as far as artis-
tic excellence and financial return for
an equal number of performances are
concerned. 1t takes an exceptionally
good production to come anywhere
near the records of the above named
plays, but when one comes alone
which leaves them far in the rear in
the matter of receipts, and that in the
summer time, the thing must be classed
as marker.
"Soldiers of Fortune"
Robert Edeson reopened the Savoy
theater on Saturday, Aug. 80, again
presenting Augustus Thomas dramati-
cation of Soldiers of Fortune" by
Richard Harding Davis which was so
signally successful at this theater last
season.
Henry BysHarris has made several
important changes in the cast with
view to the betterment of the original
production. A New Langham family
are seen, with Frank Aiken as Mr..
Langham; Dorothy Tenant as his eld-
err daughter, Alice; Ellen Burg. as the
younger, Hope; ;andil Richard Sterling
as Teddy Wallace Eddinger plays the
role of Capt. Stuart, John Meehan sue
ceeding him as Ensign Macauly. For
mer favorites who again appear are
Dorothy Donnelly, Harry HARDWOOD,
Edwin Brandt, e. W. Morrison, Ira A.
Hards, Macy Harlan, Byron Ongley.

now it seems extremely improbable.
OF course, during the season, there are
a few inevitable changes in the book
ings and to fill vacant places musical
celebrities are often available ma
terial."
But if there are to be no musical
celebrities this winter there will be
plenty of musical attractions of an
other kind. 1t is a rather curious COIN
cidence that musical comedies in ST..
Paul generally come in punches. Last
season for several weeks at a stretch
musical comedies held the boards. This
season ''Florodora," The Wizard of
OF" and King Dodo" follow each
other. BY the way, Anna Laughlin,
one of the girls who has made hit
in "The Wizard of Or" is well known
to st. Paul theater goers. She played
here the summer of 'S9 with the Will
bur Opera company, taking part in
the living pictures and doing some i'm
presentations. 1t was her powers of
mimicry that first attracted the at
tention of theatrical managers and she
soon became a success as a roof gar
den attraction. This season witnesses
her first appearance in leading role
in operate success.
People who are rusty in their Italian,
but VINO are very anxious to see ana

Interpretation of the roles she will
play in st. Paul will have to brush up
their knowledge of that language, for
unless Duse has mastered English
since her last New York engagement
she will give her play in Italian. The
fact that the personnel of her company
is entirely Italian and that most of
them are players only known in this
country by reputation bears out this
supposition. Bernhard, Coquilin and
the elder Salvani are perhaps the only
foreign players who have played in a
any degree of success. But like these
Duse has a reputation as an actress
that must successfully win out against
this handicap. Aside from her his
trionic ability and the attraction of
an odd personality the fact of the
D'AnnunZio episode in which she fig
ured would alone excite interest in her
appearance. The Italian writer made
her acquaintance, drew her out, played
on her emotions, placed her under the
microscope of his keen analytical pow
ers and then put the flesh and blood
woman in a novel that later was
dramatized. Duse recognized the very
life portrait, which was psychical rath-
er than physical, and a serious illness,
1T is said, followed. Later, however,
she and the writer became reconciled
and she includes too of his plays in her
short repetoire. D'Annunzio, by the
way, is one Of the two French writer's

No announcement has been made by
the Metropolitan theater management
of the engagement of any musical ceie-
brity for this coming winter. Last
season Kubelik and Lillian Blauvelt
appeared at the theater, but the finan:-
cial success of both engagements was
Indifferent. Perhaps it is on that ac-
count that the management is unen-
thusiastic in regard to future engage
ments.
Il have made no arrangements for
the appearance of any of the musical

fact have been too busy booking
theatrical attractions to give much

cannot say positively now that none of
these people will appear during the

How the Campaign Will Be Fought,

The Burlington Clipper says the recent
gathering of republicans in Burlington
was the most important meeting of pro-
minent republicans that was ever held in
the state. Concerning the plans of the
state committee the Clipper says:
"Mr. Clement will be trailed as a
scout would follow a refractory redskin.
He will be met with a bombardment OF
facts that will shake up his grey matter
and set him and his boiling friends think
ing overtime.
1.-THE democratic candidate will begiven
something to do answering the argu-
ments of these persuasive speakers.
The determined resolve of the meeting
was to get every voter QUITO make the
state reSound with the war cry of victory
and place Vermont at the top OF the pin
nacIe where the other states of the union
may hurrah with the voters of this state
in the task she has and will accomplish"

Derby Boy who Became Famous

DR.. Charles K. Adams, who died recent
ly of Bright's disease in Redwood, Cal,
had achieved neutrality-suspicious. as an
educator and was the nephew of the late
DR.. Josiah Shedd OF Peacham. In the
last years Wisconsin Alumni Magazine
is an account of the gilt of his wife S
jewels to the University Of Wisconsin Tor

to the institution. He was editorin.che
Of Johnson's Encyclopedia and his second
wife was the widow of Gen. Barnes o.

Dr. Adams was born in Derby, January
4, 1885, and received bis preliminary
education in the common schools and
academy OF Derby. In 1856 he moved to
Iowa with his parents and began the
study OF Greek and Latin at Denmark
Academy. The following year he was

POLITICAL PRESS CONTENT.
MIR. Clement and the Laboring Man.

This is the time when Candidate Glenn
ent is going about the state seeking the
support OF the "plain people" and asking
the suffrage of the laboring man, to elect
him governor OF the state. He claims to
be friend of the laboring man. Let us
see how he conducted himself when he
was large employer of labor.
Soon after he obtained control OF the
Rutland railroad, and was its active
manager, he got up contract Tor the
employees of that road to sign. 1t is an
innocent looking little document. 1t was
easy to get men who were subject to
their discharge to sign contract which
provided that in consideration OF their
employment they agreed that they
would not claim any damages from the
railroad company in case they were IN
iured by it's negligence.
This sounds little strange, but Glenn
ent went little further and when he en-
ployed a minor he made the parents sign
the contract specifying that not only
should the minor not receive damages
for injuries, but if he should be killed, his
parents should waive all claim to
damages they might suffer by reason OF
the railroads negligence.
This contract worked smoothly enough
until one Darius Tarbell, in Rutland
county, whose son had been killed while
at work on the Rutland railroad, by
reason of the company's negligence, saw
fit to test the contract in the court. In
volume 70 OF the Vermont Reports, on
page 347, the case is reported and the
opinion of the supreme court is given.
The court in almost scathing terms de-
clares the contract to be within those
which were termed against good NOR.
ais" and against public policy and
void" 1t is declared-to be an "unla wlul
agreement" and void in its inception,
"reprobated by public policy" pre-
MUM for careIessness," and the court
held that the plaintiff could recover, not
withstanding this neat little game that
Mr.. Clement had played.
This is how the "friend of the working
man" looks when the light is turned on.
