WEALTHY ALLIES GIVE AID

NEW YORK. Oct. 16.-The most i'm
portant theatrical deal since the Shu-
bertS Withdrew from the syndicate and
became affiliated with David Belasco
and Harrison Grey Fiske has been COM
pleted. 1t took place in the Office of
Shubert Bros, at the Lyric Theater,
when the Shuoerts entered into a combi-
nation with Congressman Joseph l.
khinock, OF Covington. Ky. and Max
Anderson. a wealthy theatrical manager
Of Cincinnati. to build eighteen theaters
in the West and Canada.
What Deal Means.
The deal means that the budding anti
syndicate managers will be able by
the opening of next season to place
their attractions in eighteen cities from
which they arc barred at this time by
the theatrical syndicate, and that, with
a broadening circuit, they will be able
TO promise time" enough to induce
several well-known managers to book
through them.
IT is by all odds the greatest stride
the new combination has taken and will
make it d formidable rival to the syn
dicate.
II is understood that George B. Cox.
the Republican boss of Cincinnati. a
man OF great wealth, is backing the
combination and Is in close partnership
with Mr.. Anderson and Congressman
Rhinock. He owns the Walnut Street

AnoerSon, and Is interested in other

Mary

MotferlesS little Rebecca Mary
lived with her aunt-a situation
which Annie Hamilton Donnell has
developed into something that is
quite out of the rut of everyday fic-
ton The story of this amiable,
singular little girl and her unusual
quest for affection, with its sweet
pathos and delicate humor, is sure
to prove revelation to all men and
women.
Deep affection for the little girl
gradually takes possession of her
aunt'S stern heart and Puritan sense
of duty. How it all came about
the part the big white rooster played
in the little drama, and other novel
incidents are charmingly described.
The Illustrations by Elizabeth Ship
