There are forty people in the ensemble
which numbers several comedians and "a
score Of burlesquers and the manage
ment has provided all the essentials for
bright and breezy form of entertain
ment. They have two new and up-to-
date burlesques written with view to-
fit the members of the company with
congenial roles and so constructed that
the chorus Of exceptionally pretty girls
can have full swing for their talents.
The burlesque will be staged with beau
tiful effects. The first part is entitled
cone Night Out' and is a breezy bur-
letta with bright and snappy dialogue,
with funny situations, good specialties
and tuneful melodies. The entire COM
panyis introduced duringits action. The
olio, which follows, presents some of the
ness. The Three Nudos, who are won,
derful aerialists; Alexis & .Schall in
their clever characterization, the

Dorsch & Russell in merry musical
movements, Major Casper Nowak, the
smallest comedian in the world; Nc

High-class burlesque, such as is bred

pretty girls, expensiveness and variety
Of costuming and cleverness Of come

which includes Rose DeHaven, Rose
Malvern, Olive Clairmont, Lewis Daily,
Carrie Bowman and Agnes Lynn. The
title given this miniature production is

principally to New York engagements.
She created the role of Lady Holly
rood in "Florodora - and the boy $ part
Of Wrenne in "The Silver Slipper
besides several other important roles.
With this solid foundation it is not sur
prising that Miss Hopper as a star has
proved brilliant success.
Miss Hopper will present "a double
bill, appearing in a curtain raiser
called Captain January" and three

in London, entitled IA Country

has penned a play that satirizes the
smart set Of London, into which he
introduces little miss from the coun-
try She manages, despite her sim
plicity, to upset the well-laid plans Of
that frivolous set. Miss Hopper is said
to be particularly suited in this char
acter Of the little country girl and
plays the part with charm and positive
delight.

zation of Laura E. Richards pathetic

his we'll remembered performances in

Metropolitan-Edna Wallace Hopper in
"A Country Mouse. o...
After long service in musical come
dy and comic opera, dainty and charm
ing Edna Wallace Hopper has returned
to her first choice, legitimate comedy.
It is in this line of work and as a star
that she comes to the Metropolitan for
the half week opening next Thursday.
In the time that has elapsed since
Miss Hopper's first comedy success in
"The Girl l Left Behind Me-" when
she was member of Charles Froh-
man g Empire theater stock company,
she has not only matured that piquan-
cy of charm and grace of manner for
which she was noted during her mete-
ORIG career in the musical comedy
world, but she has also developed nat
ural qualities Of righteousness and
occurrences and that mysterious some
thing called atmosphere that surrounds
such actresses as Maude Adams, Ethel
Barrymore and others who essay the
simple natural comedy roles.
Miss Hopper has not been seen here
since tie days when she was co-star
with DeWolf Hopper and appeared with
him in the operas Of Wang "El

Metropolitar-Jamese K. Hackett in
The Fortunes Of the King '@
James K. Hackett, whose popularity
among p!aygoers has long been estab
lished will reappear on the local stage
tomorrow night at the Metropolitan in
a new play "The Fortunes of the
King written by Mrs. c. A. Doremus
and Leonidas Westervelt. The char
acter essayed by Mr.. Hackett is that of
Charles Stuart, later Charles II Of Eng
land, who supplied by his many adven-
lures, several of the most interesting
chapters in English history. The play
deals with that interesting period imme-
diately following the defeat of Stuart
by Cromwell and particularly with his
romantic meeting with the charming
Jane Lane: With scarcely any devia-
ton, from history, the authors have set
forth this story in the form of stir
ring, interesting, heart-reaching drama.
Mr.. Hackett 8 greatest successes have
been in romantic dramas, and it is
rather peculiar circumstance that now
that he is reaching the very pinnacle of
success in this line, he finds himself al
