At the New Haven Theater.

"a Game of Hearts, is one of the
newer plays on the boards and has in
consequence never been witnessed by
an audience Of New Haveners prior to
last evening, when the initial perform
ance of an engagement of three nights
and matinee was given at the New
Haven theater. There was a good
sized audience present, and If the pop
ular chord struck last night with those
who witnessed the play is forerunner
of its popularity here, it is safe to pre-
dict that "A Game of Hearts will be
witnessed by the largest audiences OF
the season at the remaining perform
ances this and tomorrow evenings and
tomorrow afternoon. This splendid,
interesting, edifying and helpful play
last night received welcome such as
is seldom given. to new plays in this
city.
"A Game of Hearts is played in the
far west mining districts. There two
young girls have been left a rich mine
by the death of their father. The viii
lainous rascal whom they have In
charge discovers rich veins of ore,
which he fails to report to the owners.
He runs this part to his own profit I'M
til young college man from the east,
graduate in metalurgy, arrives on the
scene and discovers the treachery. He
falls in love with the elder of the two
sisters, but on account Of an unfortu-
nate marriage with a woman In the
east he cannot marry the sister. The
villain is aware that his scheme has
been discovered and he sets out to kill
the young graduate. He, after a heat
ed quarrel, strikes him with a hatchet
and places his PROSTATE body on the
feed belt which leads to the crusher
He is rescued in the nick Of time by The
younger sister, whom the villain also
tried to put out of the way This scene
is thrilling piece of stage mechonisn
and brings shouts of approval.

awHy GIRLs LEAyE HOME, =

"Why Girls Leave Home will be pre-
sented at the New Haven theater next
Monday night for an engagement of
three nights and Wednesday matinee.
Mr.. Summerfield, the author, hos gone
beyond the beaten paths and fashioned
a melodrama that was one Of the few
successes of last season. The drama.
points moral which could be drawn
in numerous instances in modern life.
1t is a story8sof evil associates and a
longing for gay life, vet it has heroine
with innocent intentions.
sWhy Girls Leave Home" appeals to
lyou--it portrays the wrong way of exc
cutting well-meant intentions; It points
out the dangerous consequences Of
hasty temperaments and stubborn in
clinations, and illustrates In a life-like
manner the dangers and temptations
which beset the unwary. maiden with
ian exaggerated sense of worldly wis
dom and too secure confidence in her
own powers of discernment.

nrHE ETERNAL FEMININE.

For the habitual theater-goer as well
as for the novice in this truly American
diversion the aIlurements are many and
various in Margaret Anglin's new play,
''The Eternal Feminine" to be present
ed at the Hyperion theater on Saturday,
November 3, matinee and evening.
Here at last comes a dramatic offering
unique in its original conceit and de-.
lightful, according to the foreign re-
views, in the spirited treatment Of its
distinguished German author, Robert
sAdisch, of Berlin. The odd but often
idyllic love story (for it is nothing elsel
is unfolded in many scenes of classic
beauty, rejecting life on mythical
island, peopled and governed by a race
of warlike maidens or Amazons in the
Aegean Sea about 400 B. G.
Realizing his big pictorial opportuni-
ty in the way of scenery, costumes.
armors and the hundred and one de-
tails Of modern presentation, Manager
Frank L., Perley has expended a for
tune on the investiture of this already
successful foreign play, which will put
forward Margaret Anglln for the first
time as wholly independent star.
