"THE FATAL WEDDING"

Sullivan, Harris and Woods sensa-
tional melodrama, The Fatal We'd
ding" will be the attraction at the
Grand following Lighthouse by the
Sea-" The story has to do with a Mr..
and Mrs. Wilson, who are estranged
by the divorce courts through the evil
influence of a wicked woman and a
man still worse. The wife, with her
two children, seeks refuge in the lower
East side of Greater New York. There
one child, Jessie" is known as the
Little Mother" She is the main sup
port of the family and the center of
attraction at all times. She finally is
instrumental in reuniting her unhappy
parents. in the nick Of time, at the foot
of the church altar.
The scene in Grace church, illumi-
mated at night for the wedding cere-
mony and the realistic snow storm
on the heights of the Jersey Palisades,
are well executed stage effects. All the
original members of the company re-
main in their respective roles. Little
Cora Quinten is practically the star
of thescompany and draws the children
on matinee days quite as much as the
grownups. A surpliced choir of thirty
boys contributes to the realism of the
Grace church scene and enhances the
general effect

AIDES first venture into the field Of
straight comedy. He has handled
comic opera libretti successfully, and
theatergoers here are curious to know
how he has treated a dramatic theme
without the aid of a musical setting.
AS the locale of his new piece, Mr..
AIDE has selected the Middle West, a
section of the country he has known
intimately all his life. The four acts
are laid in a fictitious town called An
tioch, supposed to be located some
where in the Mississippi valley.
The first takes place on the main
street of the town in front of Jimmi-
sons general store; the second is in the
court house grove on the opening of
the campaign; the third presents the
county chairman's office three days be-
fore the election, and the fourth is in
the town hall on election night, where
returns are being received. The story
relates to a rural political contest for
the office of states attorney.
Elias Rigby has been nominated for
the office and Jim Hacker, the county
chairman, to bring about Rigby's de-
feat, storms the convention of his party
and secures the nomination for his
Junior partner in the law business.
TAlford Wheeler, without the latter's
knowledge. Wheeler has asked the
daughter of Rigby to marry him, but is
forced by his partner to make the
race However, he promises the girl
that he will not make an open fight
against her father and keeps his word,
until Rigby openly assails him at
public meeting, when he mounts the
platform and denounces the old man in
strong language. This breaks the en-
gagement.
Through the county chairman's ma
nipulation of political wires, Wheeler
wins the fight for office and also gets
the girl. The scenes and incidents re-
late to the early SOS, and the costumes
represent the prevailing style of that
period. The scenery is typical of Mr.
AIDES theme.
In writing "The County Chairman"
Mr.. Ade has worked out a typically
Western comedy, rural in atmosphere,
but avoiding the conventionalities of
this form Of entertainment. He has
made promising selection of char
acters, and has garnished his political
theme with a love element quite diff
ferent from anything he has ever be-
fore written.
Mr.. Savage will give the piece ade-
quate production. The scenery pos
sesses strong suggestion of local col

the foremost operatic productions of
the past decade
The Sho-Gun' is a satirical review
upon the growing tendency in America
to unionize everything and everybody
and also upon the governments policy
of expansion and particularly as it ap-
plies, to the far East. and il is peculiar
ly apropos at this time because of the
war which is in progress in the far
East. Mr.. AIDE is a master at satire
and his best previous efforts are said
to be eXcelled in this latest Offering,
and Mr.. LuderS has given his book a
musical establishment which is re-
ported to outrank anything this prolific
musician has done in several years. 1t
is said to be at once pretentious and
popular, a combination hard to arrive
at and very seldom found. Mr.. Luders
has eSSayed something away above the
average plane of the ordinary, but he
has not forgotten that the playgoers
are fond of the ''whistleable" bit in
their musical entertainment, and he
has, according to all accounts. given
them a plentitude in this newest work.
The locale of the opera is in the
mythical island of Ka Choo, in the sea
of Japan, and has to do with the ad-
ventures there of William Henry Span
gle, an American promoter. He hap
pened on to the island in search of a
formidable list of ancestors, which he
proposes using to bolster up an attack
he is going to make on the portals of
the most exclusive set in the world.
The customs in vogue in Ka Choo bor-
der on fanaticism and this gives many
opportunities for the ebullient Amer
icar to rush into difficulties he never
anticipated.
Among other things, he falls in love
with Once Omi, widow of a former
Shotgun, who is being offered up as a
sacrifice, and the part which strikes
Spangle as being uncommoply strange
is that she has never seen the man
whose widow she is. and ne proceeds
10 save her and falls desperately in
love with her.
One of the first things Spangle does
after falling in love with Omee-Omi is
to unionize everything and everybody
on the island and so successful is he
in his last named venture that he
eventually succeeds in taking from the
Shotgun his title and his perquisities
As might be anticipated, everything
eventually rights itself and peace
reigns with Spangle dominant over all.
In the cast Mr.. Savage presents will
be found many we'll known players.

"THE LIGHTHOUSE BY. THE SEA"
AT THE GRAND

The story of 1.-The Lighthouse by
the Sea- which will be the attraction
at the Grand, commencing with mat
inee today at 2:30, is said to be one of
unusual dramatic intensity, in which
intrigue, envy, passion, love and hero
ism are dominant factors, the last
named being thrillingly demonstrated
in the dare devil and nerve tingling
feat of young girl-Minty-a frail
little creature abandoned by some cir
Gus people because she could not en-
dure the hardships of such life.
Big hearted Caleb Gale, the blind
keeper of the lighthouse, gives her a
home. and right royalty does she re-
pay him. Stricken down in q terrific
fight with villains, who extinguish the
light, destroy the stairs and abduct his
granddaughter. knowing that the
steamer carrying the girls lover. is
bearing down on the rocks in the awful
storm raging, the situation seems hope
less when, in the midst of the terrific
electric storm, with the waves dashing
mountain high upon the jagged rocks
below, the storm laden clouds rent
asunder by vivid and binding flashes
of lightning, the sharp crack of heav-
ems artillery mingling with the
shrieking wind and dull booming of
the surf as it dashes higher and higher
upon the rocks, Minty snatches a burn
ing brand from the hands of a helpless
life saver, dashes up the rocks ana
mounting a clothes line which Tom
Cod, in a spirit of mischief. has
stretched from the rocks to the light
house, boldly walks across to the great
light. and sends its welcoming beams
streaming out over the waters.
Every mechanical contrivance which
could enhance the realism of this scene
has been utilized, and it is said that the
marvellous cloud and water effects will
be surprise to those who have not
given much thought to the possibili-
ties of electricity in stage mechanism.

new romantic drama in four acts, by
Mrs C. n Doremus and Leonidas

the King" Mr.. Hackett will in this
play be seen as Charles Stuart. who
afterwards became King Charles ii. of
England, a character in which the ac-
tors we'll known qualities and abili-
ties will be doubtless revealed to the
best advantage. The action of the play

after the battle of Worcester, when
Charles met and became enamored of
the charming Jane Lane. There are,
naturally. many stirring incidents in
the play and withal a deal of exquisite

Achi moved the insertion of an item

climbing the Pail the other day, and
that poor man had to walk on because
there was no telephone.

.REGO NOT
IN COURT
DOLLAR BOND FAILS TO
APPEAR FEDERAL TO
THOSE WHO PUT THE Thousands FINALLY FOUND.

NJ. A. Rego, the former postmaster
of Koloa, failed to show up when call
ed in the federal court this morning,
and up to the hour of the noon adj
journment he had not been found. AS
he was under $4,000 bond, to guarantee
which a number of Portuguese had
raised the sum of $4,000 in cash, there
was CONSERVATION in Punchbowl cir
cles, but just after the court adjourned
Rego was found, and his bond will not
be forfeited.
Rego was called for at the door of the
court by United States Marshal Hendry
and the U. S. Fidelity and Guaranty
Company, which signed his bond was
also called. There was no response.
District Attorney Breckons asked that

the minutes show that both the defen-
dant and bondsmen had failed to APP
pear, and the next step would have
been to order the bond forfeited.
Rego's bond was made by the Henry
Waterhouse Trust Company, for the U.
S. Fidelity and Guaranty Company.
But before executing the bond the
company received ten thousand in cash
from friends of Rego and these would
have been the losers in case there had
been a forfeit.
