claim that he should have given his

10 prove his methods real anr not
mere theories, than in this play in

The play has been given an ade-

his family, says the Paducah News,

picture of the dead man bore a strong
resemblance 10 Oswell, which led 10
the belief that it was his body.

City, it scored success which ev

by virtue Of the superior qualities
which its music and comedy possess
ed, AMI likewise for the strength Of
cast with which il was Introduced
The play had along run at Days and
met with large measure of success
in the other eastern cities where it
was offered
This season Mr. John Fisher is in
exclusive control Of the tuneful dre-
alton and Is presenting IL on a Gale
of perfection which has NOT hitherto
been attempted, aside from the orlgi-
nal production. In. the big company
which Mr. Fisher organized there is
James T. Powers, who is, without
doubt, one 81 the cleyerest fun-makers
in AAmerica today. Mr. Powers origi-
mated this part in this country in
which he is cast for this season, that
of Ii a Chinaman who has travelled
He nlayed Il during the long run at
Days theatre and those who are look
ed upon as authority in such matters
claim he never did anything else quite
as well
Other members of the original cast
whom Mr., Fisher was fortunate in
securing are George X. Fortascue,
Maggie Barr. w. L. RI maine, and
such oth7r wei k-cwn artists as Mar
gares Mex nney a particular favorite
in this section, Josephine Newman.
Charles Airing. John Peachey, Fred
w. Huntley, and scores Of others who
have been prominently identified
with musical comedy Of the best class
The chorus is an unusually large one
and considered by Mr.. Fisher to be
the best voiced organization he has
ever been able to secure. A special
orchestra has also been provided to
insure the hes possible lnserpreta-
ton of Sidney Jones music
In the mounting of "San Toy" Mr..
Fisher has quite excelled the efforts
he has previously put forth in staging
musical comedy. and every play-goer
Is well sure that Mr.. Fishers reputa-
tation in this respect is well estab-
lished. There is nothing that has
been used in previous presentations
Of San Toy which will be put in
service this season except the book
and music. The very handsome scenic
is from the studios of New
York representative artists, Ernest
Crest and Henry Hoyt. The two set
tings are much more elaborte than
were the originals and in the costum-
ing Mr.. Fisher has followed the same
policy that has always made his pro
ductions notable as the most richly
dressed which any manager sends out.
Nearly every costume used in San
Toy" Is Chinese in character, and in
order to get the genuine article, Mr..
Fisher had the cos umes imported
from China through the firm of Sim
Lun Kim G. Co, of New York City.
Mr. Fisher has been responsible for
a greaat many musical productions
upon which players have seen fit TO
place the seal of approval and with
the elaborte ideas employed in his
of San Toy" there is the
best of reason for believing the play
will create a Juror. San Toy" comes
