IDA CONQUEST, In "The Money Makers"
THE SECOND FIDDLE,

One of the best scenes in "The Sec cond Fiddle with which Louis Mann as the star is billed at the Hyperion theater tomorrow evening, comes in the first act. Leopold, the second fiddle a Vienna orchestra, portrayed by MT. Mann, has trudged all the way to Paris to visit Paula, his foster sister, a chor- us girl at a Parisian theater. At her apartments he meets the Count de Car dinet, a Parisian composer of note. The count sits down at a piano and begins to play over melodies from his opera which is to be produced that evening at a foremost theater. Leopold listens, he turns pale, he clinches his fists and bites his lips--the opera is one he had himself composed and sent ito a Pari. sian manager. Poor Leopold controls his emotionsas best he may, but when the count arises from the piano, Leo pold begs leave to play selections from the opera himself.
 T show you how this should be play ed, he remarks grimly.
 He throws all his passion and fire in- to the music, and the count stands rigid as if struck to- death. Just as Leopold begins the first measures of a love duet, the installment men arrive and claim the piano as forfeit for non payment They pull its legs from un- der it and four husky men seize it by the corners and proceed to carry it out. Leopold, his heart and soul in the mu- sic, leaves the stool and follows the piano out and down the stairway play ing all the while as he goes.
 Mir. Mann's supporting company is one of unusual excellence. It includes Dorothy Reyell, Edward See, Georgia Welles, Percy Lyndal. William Hassan, Charles Dade Marie Bingham, Mary
