NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-with all due
Difference to the Jersey Lily, we think
the most interesting person who has
arrived on Broadway this week Is "The
Sultan Of Sulu." in the person Of Frank
Moulan, who has taken Wallacks
theatre nv storm. This old co-favorite
OF the Castle Square opera company,
with Raymond Hitchcock, a recipient of
similar ovations here last year as King
Dodo. once before used to delight New
Workers In the old red letter days of the
American theatre. His Ki-Ram, the
Mohammedan polygamist, who rules the
island Of Sulu is delightful, and Moulan
Is continually funny-in fact, he reeks
OF fun. THE Sultan of Sulu'' is a comic
opera version Of the Lilliputian ruler
whose submission formed a comic epi-
sode at our foreign Office during the Phil
ippine insurrection. Mr.. Ade has con-
trived. by humorous device and many an
ingenious novelty, play which, with
the light-humored satire and clever in
terpretation. is lively winner.
Everyone seems to be well pleased
with Heidelberg" Aubrey Boucicault's
play at the Princess theatre To the
college element II Is a great attraction,
as shown by the fact that a letter has
recently been received by the Shuberts
suggesting that If the Hasty Pudding
club Of Harvard could produce "Heidel-
berg" at Cambridge, the seat of the
university, and in Boston, for a few per-
formances, 1t would be a great stroke Of
enterprise, and would no doubt rebound
largely to the benefit of all parties.
Heidelberg" appeals in particularly
strong fashion to students, because Of
its interesting pictures of student life in
Germany and the most important seats
Of learning In continental Europe, there
fore it has occurred to these bright
young men Of two OF the foremost col
leges of America that Heidelberg"
would be just the play for them to pro-
duce at their annual spring perform

as they did for THE Sleeping Beauty
and the Beast" which made such q no.
table hit in New York last season, but
the book and music will be original.
John ]. McNally. who adapted "The
Beauty and the Beast" book to the
American stage and Frederick Solomon.
who wrote the score for it, have been at
work on the new libretto and music for
several months.
At the Belasco theatre "The Darling Of
the Gods" David Belasco's and John
Luther Longs powerful drama Of Old
Japan, with Blanche Bates in the stellar
role, enters its fourth week with scarce
ly a seat to be had for the next fort
night. 1t is necessary to secure places
well in advance.
The Whitney opera company, in the
new spectacular military opera, when
Johnny Comes Marching Home" is at
tracing immense audiences to the New
York theatre. This piece is an innova-
ton in amusement enterprise and a
great novelty. 1t tells a most interest
ing story of the civil war in lyrics and
bright melody and may. perhaps be
most ffttingly described as a "Shenan-
doah,' or Held BY the Enemy" pre-
sented as an opera 1t is presented in
three acts. the scenes representing the
headquarters of Gen. Allen, of the
Union army, during a dance given the
Federal officers by confederate bellies, a
plantation on the Mississippi, and an
advance post of the Union army at the
time of the declaration Of peace between
the north and the south. The cast rep
resents a large selection of the best
known lyrical artists on the American
stage.
Charles Frohman's latest New York
production, THE Girl With the Green
Eyes, at the Savoy theatre, seems to
have begun a prosperous career. In it
Clara Bloodgood comes before the public
for the first time in a conspicuous role.
The piece deals with a young wife who
is on her honeymoon, and it gives Miss
Bloodgood an opportunity not only to
show what bride may be in the hap
piest moments of the first few months of
her marriage but also to show how the
green-eyed monster may lead her des-
perate dance, even when the prOvocation
is of the slightest sort possible.
Mrs. Langtrys new social drama, ''The
Cross Ways" tells the story of the
Duchess of Keensbury's marriage. Mrs.
Langtry plays the part of the Duchess
to a man much older than herself. who
becomes suspicious and jealous Of her.
In order to punish her husband she pre-
tends to become interested in Sir Charles
Croffte, who succeeds in leading her into
several perilous situations. The flirta-
ton grows upon the duchess and she is
on the point of accepting Sir Charles
seriously, when her brother, Lord Scar
lett, seeks her aid in obtaining her hus-
hands consent IN his marriage with his
ward. Muriel. The happiness of this
young couple awakens her to sense Of
her position, and she rejects Sir Charles
advances. The latters finer qualities
are finally developed, and the duchess
soon becomes reconciled to her marriage
and learns to love the man she had mar
ried only for the sake Of others.

hit q. Daly's theatre with THE Billion
aire." and Jerome Sykes, with his west
ern breeziness, comes like a Whit Of
fresh clover to the patchouli-laden at
mosphere Of Broadway. 1t Is perfect
maelstrom Of comic incidents and fas-
cinating melods from start to finish. The
great feature of this production is the
theatre scenes in the second act, in
which all the foibles Of famous first
nighters" and a first-night audience
come in for very pointed satire. The
scene showing the auditorium Of thea
tire is the most realistic presented on the
stage in many years. When the curtain
rises on this part of the performance the
illusion Is so perfect that the audience
seems to be looking into another fully
equipped theatre, complete in every de-
tail Of stage, scenery. boxes. aisles and
seats crowded with mimic spectators.
This scene and it's incidental satire and
burlesque Of familiar sights of a metro
politan first-night is very enthusiastic
ally appreciated for it's remarkable
novelty.
Julia Marlowe continues to command
large audiences at the Criterion in the
dramatization of George w. Cables
"The Cavalier" The delicious atmos-
phere of southern scenes and the clever
depletion of southern characters which
have made the authors books so popular
is exactly reproduced on the stage and
Miss Marlowe has a part particularly
well suited to her temperament.
At the Herald Square Mansfield crowds
the house nightly and will do so until
his departure.
Another notable Shakesperian revival
holds the boards at the Garden, where
Sothern is appearing in Hamlet, much to
the delight of critical audiences.
The Keith bill for the coming week
has for it's headline act "The Two JUL
iets," a one act comedy sketch played
by Leona Merville, Marion Gilmore and
Sidney Booth. All three of these people
scored successes in the legitimate drama
before venturing into vaudeville. Miss
Merville and Miss Elmore are old favor
ties with theatre goers and Mr.. Booth,
while he has done much good work still
remains best known as the nephew Of
the great Edwin. The plot of this sketch
depends upon the striking resemblance
between the two women, Miss Elmore
and Miss Merville resembling each other
so closely that their best friends are
often puzzled to know which is which.
Inc Euen HuSee always has d hSt VI
good attractions but during the month
of January they will excel. De Kolta
has been re-engaged and each evening
will present an exhibition of mysteries
that is startling, to say the least, and
which marks him as the greatest ma
gician of the day. During the three
months he has been at the musee. the
large winter garden has been crowded
at each exhibition. Thousands of visit
ors have watched his marvellous feats
solely to try and determine how they
were accomplished, but so far not
single explanation has been given that
in any way explains them and even
clever magicians who have been present
shrug their shoulders and say it is as
tonishing.

PROBABLY ACCIDENT.
Evidence Show That Kinland Did
Not Committ Suicide.

John Kinland, thirty-ive years old, of
No. 238 First street, was found this morn
ing axphyxiated by gas in his room in
the boarding house of f,Mrs. Mary Tough
ey. He was employed as clerk in the
freight office of thePennsylvania Railroad
at Second and Henderson streets.
1t was at first reported that Mr.. Kin
land had committed suicide, but investiga-
tion leaves doubt as to whether he
killed himself or not. His shirt was
found hanging on the gas burner. The
one window of his room was found raised
about two inches. 1t is believed that in
hanging his shirt on the burner he acci-
dentally turned the gas on: Had he de-
liberately planned to commit suicide by
inhaling Illuminating gas he would have
at least closed the window tight.
