Columbia Theater.

"The Other Girl" Augustus Thomas COM
edy, with Lionel Barrymore as the star,
was produced at the Columbia Theater yes
terday afternoon for the first time in Wash
ington and made pronounced hit. And
there is good reason for this fact, for 1.-THE
Other Girl' is one of the best things that
Mr.. Thomas has ever written, and it is not
too much to say that it is one of the wit
test, brightest, cleverest and cleanest plays
that has been seen in Washington for
long time. In plot, conception and fulfil
ment it IS original and logical, and last
night was presented by an exceedingly
capable company. Almost every role in the
play affords exceptional opportunities for
character work in the delineation of we'll
known American types, and the opportuni-
ties were certainly not neglected by the
members of the company.
The scene of the play is placed in New
York, and the complications arise as re-
suit of the efforts of the Rev. Dr. Clifford
Bradford to make his physical fitness equal
to his spiritual well being. To accomplish
the best results he engages a trainer, who
comes to him as ''Mr. Sheldon but who IS
better known as ''Kid Garvey, champion
middle weight prize fighter of the world"
When the play opens the minister and his
trainer have finished the first period of their
training and "Mr. Sheldon" is about
to depart Most of the athletic stunts
have been done in the rear of the house
belonging to DR.. Clifton's sister. and
the latter's guest, Miss Katherine Fulton

Fined for Assault and Profanity.

William Green and Charles Finney were
arrested yesterday by Policemen Allan and
Van Horn, and sent to the third precinct
station. on charges of assault and profanity
The men, with several friends, were assem-
bled on NJ street northwest last evening
and as Policeman Allan passed they made
some remark concerning him which was not
regarded as complimentary to the officer.
Allan placed Green under arrest, and as
he did so Finney said. Look at that big
officer taking little Willie Green" which
proved to be a signal for the melee to start
Allan was fighting the entire crowd, it is
said, and was holding to his prisoner when
Policeman Van Horn came to his assistance
and F'inney was placed under arrest
Judge Kimball was told In court this
morning by the prisoners that the police
were all to blame, but after hearing the
testimony the judge did not take that view
of the case. On the profanity charge the
men were fined $40 each, and for the as
sault upon the officers Green was fined $50
and Finney SO.
Finney paid his fine, but Green did not
have the cash and will spend 100 days in
jail.

Buster Brown and his dog Tige are again
holding forth this week at the Lafayette
Square Opera House. That dimnutive
comedian, Gabriel whose talents, however,
are not small nor limited, Is cast for the
title role and he fits it to perfection. Tige
is impersonated by George Ali, who had the
animal parts in Weber & Fields pro-
auctions for a number of years, and his
work is most realistically canine. Buster
and Tige have the assistance OF an excep-
tionally large company and the entertain
ment is, substantially. a series of special
ties, or vaudeville features, skillfully woven
together. A typical holiday audience last
evening demanded speech from Buster,
and he complied, urging the children pres
ent to be patient with their parents at all
times.
