and is a comedy written about the first production on any stage of Romeo and Juliet" This later play Miss Haswell will also produces in this city, in conjunction with "'The Favor of the Queen" and when Mr Fawcett sends the company into New York these plays will be alter mated in this way.
 In writing his book for When Johnny Comes Marching Home," the war opera, Stanislaus Stange was careful not to of fend the people of the North nor those of the South. In the plot of his opera there is but one Southern man and but one Northern girl, and the war which is waged by Venus spoiled boy is much more dangerous than that of the sol diers who are concerned in the story. There has always been a shrouded fas- cination in the clank of the saber the click of the spur. and the marshal tread of the cavalryman. He has been the hero of more inspiring songs, dashing stories and love scrapeS than any other branch of the army Why? Because womanly | women have always loved manly men, and no type of the strenuous man is bet ter depicted than by those military cen taurs. In George w. Cables remarkably successful story, The Cavalier" the | the cavalry boys who wore the Confed- crate gray are most conspicuous. In fact. it is said that the story was writ ten around some actual experience MT Cable had during the campaign of 'G1-65 along the Natchez trace, while he was q trooper in a mixed regiment of Louisiana and Mississippi cavalry. The whole play is permeated with the invigorating at mosphere of active service. and yet the subtle craft of the dramatist has elimi- mated every feature that might be apt to jar upon the susceptibilities of the most nervous auditor It is in realty war play without warfare.
 Among the coming attractions at the Montgomery theater is the ever welcome annual visit of those two clever German dalecticans, Mason and Mason, in Charles Newmans delghttul musical farce Rudolph and Adolph. In addition to the stars the company numbers on it's roster some of the most noted of far ceurs. and the musical numbers intro duced have been selected for their tune- fulness and catchy qualities.

 Hirscher Bros. have booked Harry Beresford in The Professors Love Story" for an early engagement the com ing season. MT. Beresford is said to be most consummate actor of the Nat Good win school and his success has been made by means of honest. legitimate work, backed up by fund of personal magnet ism. His manager has secured from J. M. Barrie, his masterpiece, "The Profess sor's Love Story" This play alone should give to the engagement more than ordi- nary interest. There is no question but this delightful, wholesome, pure and clean comedy is in J. M. Barrie's hap piest vein, and competent judges have pronounced it ahead of "The Little Min ister" in quaintness. originality. senti- ment or as a character study.
 Walker Whiteside is very busy rehears- ing for We Are King" but he took time the other day to tell an amusing story of a friend who piloted a theatrical com pany through portion or south Amer ica.
 This company" said MT. Whiteside, twas not very large, but 1t had an ex- tensve repertoire, principally of blood curdlers. As a result they carried quite a number of firearms which were used in the thrillers When they arrived at the town of Carthagena some jealous member of the local police arrested the entire company on the suspicion that they were plotting against the government. This was finally explained satisfactorily, and they were released, but they were required to apply for permission to carry fire arms. The manager wrote to the authorities. and signed his application, Yours truly, John Smith Tn few days the permit was handed to him. and glancing at the envelope he saw 1t was addressed to 'Se- nor Yours Truly"
 Charles Coghlan was better known among the theatre-lovers of this country as a great actor than as a dramatist, yet the fact remains that his work as play wright was equally as praiseworthy as his acting.
 His Citizen Pierre" the Royal Box" in which he was seen for several seasons, Lady Barter" and several others of his plays would alone prove this assertion, but he wrote besides plays that have not yet been produced and this season his starring tour in still another of his plays, the Last ef the Boissacs." The scene of this play is laid in Anglers. France

Excellent opportunities are offered for scenic effects and elegant cos- tuning. and the production will be even more elaborate than that carried last sea- son when Miss Coghlan was starring in Alice of Old Vincennes." The principal role is admirable suited to Miss Coghlan's personality. and she is delighted with the opportunities that 1t affords. Her tour will begin about the middle of December, and will embrace the principal cities of the country.

 Mon petit occur is the French for Miss Petticoats" the new five act play which Kathryn Osterman will present. The mother who was the wife of the son of a French Count always used that name, but the New England grandfather who could only speak the English lam guage, pronounced it Miss Petticoats." ," Of couhse this testing name stuck to her through life.
 Roselle Knott is spending the summer at her home in Hamilton, Canada. She will return to New York soon to begin rehearsals for When Knighthood was in Flower" which is to be played here.
 Miss Elizabeth Kennedy. the accom- plished young star who claims Atlanta as her home, will give her Southern ad- mirers an opportunity to see her as Rosa lind in ''As You Like It." The predom- mating element in this character is comedy. Rosalind is the central figure around whom the remaining characters revolve and in this play M ss Kennedy has found a role which will tax her re- sources, intellectual refinement and aesthetical tastes. Those who last sea son witnessed Miss Kennedys artistic portrayal of the role of Madame Trentoni in Captain links of the Horse Marines" will no doubt be eager to see her garbed in doublet and hose.
 Soldiers of Fortune" which ran for over 15O nights in New York and was considered one of the principal theatri- cal hits of last season in all of the large cities of the East and North when it was presented, has received careful produc- tion at the hands of Henry B. Edwards. who employed Augustus Thomas's stage version of this popular novel by Richard Harding Davis to introduce Robert Ede- son as star. Joseph Physioc spent sev- eral months in the preparation of the scenic equipment. MT. Edeson will pre- sent Soldiers of Fortune here for the first time early in the season.
