National-"A Message From Mars"

There is every Indication that Charles
HawtTey's enga cement, which begins
next Monday. in "A Message From
Mars" at the New National Theater
will prove fully as successful as when
he first appeared here in the same play
two years ago. Many who then saw
the play want to see it again, and the
reports OF its charm and that of the
star have created a desire among those
who were not so fortunate. Mr.. Haw
trey has won the unparalleled record
for a foreign star of presenting one
piece in New York city for an entire
season. This is what he accomplished
with a MESSAGE From Mars" at the
Garrick Theater last season, three
years ago, and since then il has been
twice revived for long runs, the last of
which. at the Princess Theater, has
been recently ended. The play Is
founded on the idea of Dickens
christmas Carol" While Astounding
in run and humor, its lesson is good
and its moral tone of the best. The
usual Wednesday and Saturday matt
nees will be given.

Charles z. Hanford. who begins
weeks engag ement at the Columbia,
next Monday. in The Tanning of the
Shrew." IS assured OF a hearty well
ceme during his coming engagement in
this, his native. city, after Il long alb
sence. He has made life study Of
the classic drama. and has had the
good Judgment and the ability to give Il
genuinely popular Interpretation of
Shakespeare plays without in any way
affronting the sincere student, who
would justly resent Il sacrifice OF the
delicate literary quality for the sake Of
thoughtless approval. No actor has
had better opportunities for knowing
the traditions of the various roles he
assumes, schooled as he was in his
earlier career TJith the men who ranked
as the undisputed masters of their art
The productions are made with q iiber-
atty worthy of an attraction designed
for Il permanent metropolitan run, and
the company has been Endorsed as the
most efficient that this popular star has
yet assembled. Marie Drofnah, the
leading lady, has invested the Shake
srearean woman with a charm which
has endedred her more than ever Miss
Drofnah IS gifted with magnetic viva
city. and at the same time with that
intellectually which lnSures womanly
dignity and repose III the more serious
scenes.

the University OF Pennsylvania will be
given at the Lafayette Theater next
Monday night The burlesque this sea-

who have seen the play pronounce it
the very best the college, boys have
produced. It is replete with clever
songs and dances, and the display Of
gowns and millinery, for which the
Wiggers have ever been famous, will
this year exceed anything ever seen III

Woman Loses Hope.

Since Assistant District Attorney
Ralph Given refused TO nol.s pros. the
cases of larceny against her, despite the
statement by Mrs. Bull to the effect that
Mrs. Slater did not wish to prosecute
the distinguished prisoner, the baroness
has lost all nope she ever had. She has
been Inundated and disgraced beyond
redemption. so she says, and is so torn
with anguish and despair that she cares
but little what the authorities do with
her. She was buoyed up yesterday fore
nom with the thought that Mrs. Bull
would drop the cases against her, and
she would be free again TO join her nus
band in New York city. She smiled when
she saw Mrs. Bull at Police Headquar-
tiers, and walked briskly 10 Mr. Given
(.fiice.
Disappointment was written on every
feature of her face when Mr.. Given
said he would not drop the case i'm
talk with Mr.. Beach, the district at
torney. He did not care TO assume
responsibility OF releasing a woman
from whom hundreds of dollars worth
covered Mr.. Given has had similar
cases before, and in each one where
leniency was extended the person so
favored invariably turned up in
darker role or in a case where larger
amount was involved.
Mr.. Beach Must Decide.
Today Mr. Given said he had not
had time TO look into the case. but
would probably visit Mr.. Beach tomor-
row forenoon and talk with him re-
garding it. The nol-prossing OF the
information against the prisoner viii
