the pronounced success of humorist
George AIDES witty musical satire at
Wallack's. All previous work by this
cheerful western writer showed wide
observation and in THE Sultan of Sulu'
he has simply applied his keen sense of
American humor to the portrayal of the
types with whitehall Americans are
familiar. Once the scene and situations
had been fixed in a foreign cline it was
only necessary to introduce American
types from society, politics and the army
and exploit the native American foibles
of human nature before a half-civilized
people to win laughter from a modern
audience.
Blanche Bates and 1.-The Darling of the
Gods remain the sensation of the sea-

stage art has been reached i'm this new
Belasco masterpiece, which for it's quaint
Japanese charm and dramatic force,
must stand forth as the remarkable play
of the year.

for its metropolitan presentation. All the
costumes are exact reproductions of
designs drawn by the famous English
artist Cruikshank, and the whole con-
ception is a delightful study of English
life of the time of Dickens. January
18th was the opening date.
Mrs. Fiske Is now in the third month
of her appearance in Mary Of Mag

York. and the vogue of that play is so
great that from all present tokens it
can run there indefinitely. With all the
Observation-Disclosures elements Of dra-
matte interest that characterize the
metropolis Mary of Magdala" sustains
its supremacy as the most uniquely in
teresting and impressive drama within
memory; and as a production on the
highest plane Of art, with pictorial fea-
lures exceptional for their appealing
beautySsand the dramatic quality, it
stands unchallenged by the ever varying
and elaborate offerings of a very notable
season.

NEW YORK, January 31.-"Mr. Blue
Beard" the great Drury Lane spectacle
so long expected by New Yorkers, was
presented at the Knickerbocker theatre
on Wednesday evening, the 2lst inst.
1t is unQuestionably the greatest pro-
duction ever made by Kiaw and Err
LANCER, which statement means much
indeed, in view of the fact that they are
responsible for the most elaborate
theatrical achievements in the history
OF the American stage. Mr.. Blue Beard"
really Is three great shows in one, for
each act is more gorgeous in its scenes
and costume equipment and presents a
larger number Of people than any pro-
duction now running in New York. In
each OF the two ballets, which are mar
vellously beautiful, more than $50 peo-
pie appear arrayed in the most magnifi-
cent costumes ever seen In this country.
These ballets excel even the ballet Of the
four seasons which attracted so much
attention in THE Sleeping Beauty and
the Beast" last season.
Beautiful Elizabeth Tyree, who is ap-
pearing under management Of II. B.
Harris & Co., at the Madison Square
theatre in 'Gretna Green" is following
up her previous success at the Lyceum,
DAILY and Empire theatres.
"Gretna Green is a romantic comedy
of a most romantic epoch, the days Of
1S0l-days of the stage coaches and rum
away matches-days when the old Eng
lish beaux and bellies used to centre at
Harrogate, health resort in the north
of England.
II is at this place the romance begins
between Dolly Erskine and the earl Of
Bassett, the leading figures in little
comedy of love that once dangerously
approaches tragedy. 1t is in this pictur-
esque environment that most of the
characters are introduced, the women
quantity pretty in the clinging robes
and classic coiffures Of the first empire
the men brave in directory coats, bun
breeches. top boots and beaver hats.
Everyone is talking Of the great sue
cess made by Robert Hilliard in Jim
Bludso" at the Fourteenth Street thea
tire. The play is taken from three of
Secretary Hays ballads, Jim Bludso,"
Little Breeches" and "Banty Tim,"
from which are drawn a story full Of in
tensity, excitement and real heart inter
ests. The main theme of the melodrama,
Jim Bludso' life and love. has been
drawn from two lines in the ballad which
tell Of the engineer Of the Prairie Belle.
The play opens at Tom Taggart's hall in
Gilgal and shifts to the levee embank-
ment, where the levee breaks and the
waters OF the Mississippi overflow. There
are some very novel effects used in the
eight scenes.

matinees will be daily except on Satur-
day when the theatre Is occupied, OF
course, by Julia Marlowe's regular al
ternoon performance Of '"The Cavalier.
With Miss Marlowe every evening and
Mrs. Burnett's play afternoons, the
Criterion is about the busiest playhouse
in town except those given over to con-
tinuous vaudeville performances.
In "The Bird in the Cage" which
Charles Frohman presents at the Bijou
theatre, Ed Harrigan who for so many
years delighted New Yorkers, returns to
legitimate work on Broadway. He has
role in this play which is similar to the
line of characters in which he made his
great reputation when he and Hart were
together, and later when he made pro-
ductions in his own name.
The Whitney opera company has
scored a marked success in When
Johnny Comes Marching Home" at the
New York theatre. All critics declare
this to be the best American opera since
Robin Hood" 1t is a great novelty In
every aspect and is drawing immense
audiences to the New York, such emin-
ent men as Senator Depew and ex-Gov-
ernor Black, highly commencing it. The
latter has seen it several times. Many
of the musical numbers have attained
great vogue and are being widely sung
and whistled and played by orchestras.
Klaw & Changers big production of
THE Billionaire," presenting Jerome
Sykes in the star role of John Doe, who
owns a controlling interest in the earth"
has made the greatest hit ever scored by
a musical farce in New York. 1t opened
at Daly's theatre to a capacity house,
kept up it's pace till the end and closed
with the record Of the largest weeks
attendance in the history of this thea
tire. The oldest theatrical manager in
New York cannot recall any instance
where the merit of a production has
been so quickly recognized by the public.
The Empire theatre company has
opened it's regular winter season at the
Empire with Robert Marshalrs London
success "The Unforeseen The plot OF
the story deals with features of English
social life involving love matches, elope-
ments, matrimonial misunderstanding
ct cetera, all fortunately, ending happily.
The presentation is of course first class
and the play is duplicating on Broadway
the success it has made in London.
At the cozy Princess, Mr.. Aubrey
adoption of "Alt Heidel-
berg continues to prove an exception
ally strong attraction. The pretty Ger
man comedy, with its picturesque cos
tunes and realistic scenes showing coll
lege life at the famous old-world seat OF
constitute a distinct and es-
different class Of entertainment
from that usually presented. There is
a dash and charm about Heidelberg
that appeals strongly to the masculine
mind, and even more forcibly to feminine
sentiment. HERBERT E. CLAMP.

Iowa Democrats

The democratic state convention OF
Iowa was held last Wednesday AMI
the reorganizers captured 1t. BY a
vote of 463 to 354 it refused to adopt
plank indorsing the Kansas City
platform and by vote of 62S IL 10
199 IL rejected a minority report
adding to the. plank demanding gov
ernment control of railway charges,
provision that in case control should
not prove effective the national gov
ernment should acquire ownership OF
railroads. 1t will be seen that the
convention stood more than three TO
one against the public ownership OF
railroads even after it should be de-
monstrated that the government could
not control them The peoples party
of Iowa will undoubtedly take some
immediate action, for no populist can
support party taking such a posi-
ton as that. The Independent has
long been warning the democrats OF
the west of what was going to happen,
but they have supinely laid down
with the thought that the name OF
Bryan was sufficient without their 60
ing to the primaries.
