CHARLES GRAPEwIN.

Charles Grapewin, who appears al Polls tonight in Its Up to You, John Henry" has been surrounded by 8 well balanced company, prominent among whom are Miss Anna Chance petite, graceful and pretty. and the St Cecilia quartet. In the parlance of the dramatist the play would be called 8 farce-comedy However, there is more to 1t than that couplet would imply In addition to the bright lines. numor. ous situations and mirthful climaxes. there are crowds of pretty girls, smartish gowns. beautiful scenery dazzling electric effects and ensemble numbers galore. The staging of the production has been entrusted to none but competent and experienced hands. 1he songs are of the "whistling kind'' and many of the brightest musical hits of the season can he traced to John Henry" As to Grapewin him. self, there are few on the stage who are superior to him as comedian. His excellent work in The Awaken ing of Mir Pipp" lasr season is well re- membered and is easily the best thing he ever did. Prices are 9. B. 70, TJ cents and $1.

"cHEcKERs."

On Wednesday evening at Polls one of the treats of the season was given in the presentation of the character comedy. Checkers" from the pen of Henry Blossom. The production was a most pleasing one. and it was rel ished by the very small number pres ent. who applauded enthusiastically The leading role. Checkers. was taken care of by Hans Roberts. a rising young actor. He filled the part In most satisfactory manner. In the third act. at the Washington Park race course. when he has bet the S50 gold piece given to him by his sweetheart. Purt Barlow Miss Katherine Mulkinsl. on Penrose, a 100 to 1 shot. his acting was so vivid and realistic that some of tine audience almost rose from their seats. Miss Katherine Mulkins was good. while the character of Push" Miller. portrayed by Dave Brahanm. Jr. made almost as big a hit as Cheek CTS himself. The others In the com. pany were all good. and the only thing which could be improved upon was the handling of the race track scene in the third act. when many "supers" were on. The performance was one of the best of the season and would he sure of packed house on a return date.

 ton and his Clandon offspring. will Do seen in all their whimsical attracslye- ness when Arnold Daly's company from the Garrick theater. New York. presents Bernard Shaw's most spafS- lifg comedy. You Never Can Tell. '' at Poli's tomorrow evening. Each Of these characters is as familiar to loy. CTS of Shaw as Bill Sykes. M- Pick wick and Little Nell are to the devo
 tees of Dickens. All are drawn with masterly hand, half of their charm coming from the wit of Mir Shaw's dia- logue. the novelty of his situations and the unexpectedness of his climax. es. The words of the title eloquently describe the play-to certainty, You Never Can Tell'' from one incidens what will happen next. Probably never before. except in some other comedy of Shaw's, was the Genous- ment of play harder to guess. Ger
 orally at the end of the first act tho final climax. and all that intervenAs, Is plainly seen. But each situation. each answer in You Never Can Telr' is something else than what is looked for. Thus the spectators are always on the qui vive-they have a new sen sation nearly every minute. Probably that explains why Mir Daly and his splendid company had their great sue cess in New York last season. playing You Never Can Telr' there for five successive months. No one who likes pure. wholesome fun. and lots of 1t. can afford to miss You Never Can Tell" Prices are s1.50. s1. T5. 30 and 2j cents. Seats are now on sale.

construction are overcome by the DO. tential power of the dramas story as told by the members of the excellent cast.
 Ready Money Ryder, we'll played by Edmund Breese, conspires with sew eral senatorial mercenaries to procure the downfall Of Judge Rossmore of the United States supreme court, the judge having in the course of honest duty given decisions adverse to Ryder, who is the richest man in the world.
 The judges daughter. Shirley meets Ryder's son Jefferson in Paris, and the manner h which she prevails on the 'fnancier to have mercy on her father and save him from ruin and death is novel in the extreme.
 Miss Elliston as Shirley Rossmore does the best work of her career She carries the play to a climax in the third act in most striking denuncia- ton of the capitalists life and meth ods. Ryder in bis unmixed egotism be- lieves himself to be the reincarnation of all the masterful qualities of Caesar. Alexander and Napoleon. but Shirley convinces him that, after all. he is nothing more than modern Nero.
 And of course Shirley marries the miliionaire's son.
 Summed up, The Lion and the Mouse is a good play. well acted and handsomely staged.

open Carriage. For winter Usc.

Folk of fashion who have made [ cent purchases of closed carriages wit their arms emblazoned on the sides will be grieved to learn that closed car. riages are "all out" if one wishes to follow European fashions, says the New York Press. The open brougham is the thing, and if the weather Is f0sfS you are supposed to have vain 'ftfrs. The most effective looking eqtfi page seen in Washington this season is the turnout of the new Mexican am, bassador He has used his national col ors to make the vehicle gay. All the diplomats who have ordered state car. riages for the winter have adopted the open carriage The fashion is one King Edward adopted long ago. He consid. CTS closed carriages an abomination ex. cept for extremely cold and stormy nights. The New Yorker who wants to be in the swim must put on extra heavy underwear and her warmest furs and drive down town in the open landau.

Verdict of Jerome K. Jerome After a
 Few Weeks Inspecffon.
 Jerome K. Jerome, the English hu- morist, who recently lectured in Pitts burg, has been interviewed in Chicago on his impressions during his tour, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. First of all he indignantly denied that he pronounced his name Jerrum K. Jerrum. "Jer-oam, please" he said
 "A great deal of stress generally is laid on the fact that America is youth further and declare America extrava- gantly boyish. You are like big fami- ly of healthy, rollicking boys, working with all their might, playing hard, but undisciplined, restive of restraint and often unmanageable. You are learning how to behave properly by experience. You go along here for generation or so allowing your bad boys, your graft CTS, as you cafl them, to plunder you right and left, and suddenly you wake up and say: Here, this isn't right We've got to reform this,' and then you take ten minutes of to do the job. It's hard on the grafters, poor fellows. Here they have been going along with their plundering, thinking it was all right because every one else thought 1t was all right, and then suddenly they are called in and told they are naughty and are punished.
 Then you are such patient people. Why, today coming from the railway station with our bags-there are never any porters to carry one's luggage-we were stopped fully ten minutes by a train on crossing. I was fuming with indignation, but my fellow Amer jeans seemed to be enduring the out rage with good natured patience. In England we should have made quite row about 1t, written letters to the pa- pers and had the railroad punished.
 "Yes, you have the virtue of exces- sive meekness. The way the great ma jority allows itself to be bossed is sur prising. I've never been so much boss cd by men wearing brass buttons in my life. One can't leave his seat in the car or open window without be- ing bossed. One must wait until some one with buttons gives bis permission to move. You meekiy allow yourselves to be ordered about.
 "Over in England we boss the cab drivers and the policemen, but here they boss you That's why say that the Americans are meek"
 How much of the ridiculous have you seen since you have been in Amer lea, Mir. Jerome?'
 Nothing"
 Then we're not an amusing people|
 Far from it. You all seem to be fond of your mothers-in-law, and you never get drunk. As for swearing why, every one swears so much that there's no humor to be derived from it."
