The Jewel of Asia" is a modern musi-

Having passed its 300th performance

Broadway. Although twelve Of the most
popular New York theatres have musical
comedies or comic operas as their at

Sam Weller, and gives a striking por-
trait of Cruikshank's famous drawing,
while the other roles are filled In an ex-
ceedingly successful way.
