Empire Theater,

The return of the popular Bijou Stock
Company to the Empire Theater the COM
ing week will doubtless be hailed with ap-
proval by the clientele Of that theater.
Last year the stock company met with
much success. and it was only because OF
a. change In the policy of the house and
the previous booking OF number Of road
companies that the Empire management
disbanded the company.
This year requests have been made all
season long that the stock company be re-
cided to adopt the policy which appears
to be desired by a large majority of the
Empires patrons. Monday afternoon the
stock company will begin new series OF
performances. The company has been
formed by James Brennan. who has had
much experience in the burlesque fed. The
chorus will be larger and stronger than
ever before. numbering more than twenty

author 1t appears to be pretty well I'M
derstood that Mr.. Pinero is something Of
marvel in that he is versatile and can d.
rect his mind along any channel of thought
from grave to gay. There Is, in fact, moth
ing of the ordinary preacher about this
magician of the PEN It was not long ago
that he startled the play-going world with
that rather cynical piece Of smart con.
structton entitled 1.-The Gay Lord Quex,"
saying nothing Of those other examples of
his respectively called 1.-THE Second Mrs.
lawny Of the Wells" In Iris" it appears
his genius has been turned toward an ex-
treme in the contrary direction. In this
play ne seems to have delivered to slightly
Ing sermon. He does not condescend to
point the moral, but merely says in so
many words: There it islike 1t or not
like it, as you please-such Is life" The
character Of Iris, the part played by Miss
Harmed, is that Of rich, beautiful young
wddow-her triumph in the social world and
her downfall 1t may be here stated that
Mr.. Pinero has said that he does not write
plays for young people. but to grown per-
sons. who are capable of understanding the
subjects. The fate of Iris made by the
author Is cruel. It is said there are many
strong scenes in the play, but the last one
seems to be unlike anything else that has
ever been seen in any of Mr.. Pinero's crea-
lions. The woman who has sinned Is not
forgiven before the final curtain falls, as is
the case in so many plays. Here is where
Mr.. Pinero has gone to the extreme above
mentioned. Her millionaire master, as 1t
were, makes the discovery that she still
has a fondeness for her more youthful
lover, who has returned from his two years
trip to Canada from England-has come
home to claim his bride. She has in the
meantime become the mistress Of mil
lionaire. She confesses all to her youthful
lover. He departs without giving her any
sympathy, thus casting her aside forever

CONGRATULATIONS
Columbia Theater.

The Liebler & Company production Of
Audrey comes to the Columbia next
week. It had its initial New York presen-
tation at the Madison Square Theater on
November "a. when both play and players
scored success. I'M the first place much
interest had centered in the story. There
was curiosity. to know how well the
dramatists had succeeded in their work.
for there are not a few who have always
held that audrey" must be difficult
story to turn into a play.
But there was still another vital inter-
est. and that surrounded the appearance
of Eleanor Robson in the title role of the
drama. Miss Robson's rise in the profess
sion has been not exactly pyrotechnic but
steady. Like many another famous actress,
Miss Robson has virtually spent her life
on the stage; it's environments are as nat
ural and familiar to her as the trees of
park are to sparrow. 1t was as Bonita
in Arizona" that she secured her first
real chance. and her success was all the
more remarkable because Miss Robson was
then upkonwn. Then came her appearance

Mr.. Bispham's Recital.

large audience of music lovers gathered
at the Columbia Theater yesterday after
noon to hear Mr.. David Bispham, the we'll
known baritone. sing a dozen or more Of
the songs that have made him famous. Mr..
Blspham has been for years recognized as
one of the premier baritones Of the operate
as well as the concert stage. His clear
enunciation, intelligent Interpretation and
his appreciation Of the dramatic values of
the compositions he was called upon to sing
have placed him in the front rank. Mr..
B1spham seems to be able to get al out of
music there is in it, and his audience of
yesterday afternoon was given an opportu-
nifty to hear him in every shade of tone ex-
preston. His program included the works
OF Schumann. Schubert, Strauss, Meyer
beer, De Koven and others, and in each
song the meaning of the music was firmly
impressed on the audience. Mr.. Bispham
seemed to feel more at home and got more
out of Meyerbeer's la Chanson de Maitre
tIoh' than any of the other songs on the
program. This composition shows the range
and quality of the voice without subjecting
the singer to the slightest strain. The rem
dition of Der Lindenbaum," by Schubert,
was next in merit All of the Strauss songs
were well sung, and the singer was COM
PEELED to respond to an encore several
times, although the program was unusually
his work by the excellence of the accom-
paniments played by Mr.. Harold o. Smith
The complete program included: "Aufen-
thalt," Schubert; Der Lindenbaum,' Schu-
bert; ''Waldesgesprach," Schumann; "Wid-
mung," Schumann; "Fruhling und Liebe,"
Franz; "Genesung," Franz; 'Minnelied,"
