PadereWskl.

Paderewski. the most widely known and most popular pianist in the world, will appear at the Jefferson theater Fri day night, January 20. He gave a recital at the old O'Brien Opera House four years ago, and at s4 seat the building was filled to overfiowng. The great au- dience was wild with enthusiasm, and no one who heard Paderewslki play be- grudged the price. Had seats been $S or $10 the house would have been filled
 This season Paderewski's highest price is only s3. That the Jefferson will be crowded goes without saying.
 Here Is what the Anzeiger of Madge- burg says of Paderewsk: "The 9th of November, 19O1 will never be forgotten by the audience that listened to this ar tist. Where shall I find words to de- scribe the revelations of Paderewski's s genius; Schumann, Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Rubinstein, as embodied by Pad erewsk2 The enchanted audience, car ried away from reality by the musician and artist, listened to the masters of melody What a touch, full of force and yet again tender and sweetl What gilt tering, pearly chains of scales, artistic adornments in the most elegant varia- tions and grand embodiment of motives ideas full of glowing passion, striving for the ideal, revealing the magnificence of Paderewskis musical genius

"Her First False step."

An interesting picture of rural life among the hills of New Hampshire Her First False Step will be the attrac- tion at the Bijou theater Monday. Tues day and Wednesday, with matinees Tues day and Wednesday.
 The play tells a reasonable, connected story, the incidents follow naturally, and the action is swift and rapid. Another reason for the opularity of Her First False Step" Is the fact that 1t contains plenty of light and shade, the comedy ana serious clements being blended in a happy way
 The first act shows the home of Will liam Allen. sturdy New Hampshire farmer. The time is Christmas Eve The event is the marriage of his daugh- ter Edna to Jack Walters. The scene Is in the interior of the old-fashioned sit- ting room, where are being held the usual Christmas festivities. All of ths guests are present and the wedding cere- mony is about to occur when Dan Mat thews, the wayward son of a country minister, enters and openly accuses Jack Walters of unfaithfulness to the girl he is about to wed Matthews succeeds in convincing Edna of the truth of his statements, and sne for revenge elopes and marries Matthews The second act shows her in New York. where she has been deserted by Matthews. The third act pictures CT as she struggles for a liv- ing with the toilers of the tenements.
 The fourth act is that of East river in the shadow of the Brooklyn bridge. In this act occurs the race for life between . swift naptha launch owned by Dan Mat thews, and a police patrol boat The last scene of the fourth aot, which is con- ceded to be one of the strongest ever presented to the public is that of the in- terior of a large circus tent owned by

 For His Sisters Honor" is rural play but not one showing fields of way ing grain, the farm hands returning from the hay fields and stopping at the old well to quench their thirst. The scenes are all of winter. 1t Is Thanksgiving time Jane Hewlet, New England wo- man. with a son by her first husband, whom she does not love as she ought to. and a son by a second husband, on whom she bestows an amount of afreCion that would have been better divided between her two boys. suffers rom a heart trou- ble that the doctor claims will prove fa- tai if she is ever greatly shocked. On the day that the play opens she has sold some property and placed the money in table drawer. Her -avorite son, who is badly In need of money to get himself out of trouble with gipsy girl known as Scarlet" finds the money and is ab yut to steal 1t when he is discovered by his mother who Is blind, and does not know who 1t is Her other son, who Is also In the room, to save his mother from the possible fatal effect of learning that her favorite son is the thief, tells the blind woman that IL IS hamseiI' anu HE mother, in the height of her wrath, drives him from the house.

It is not too much to say that it is the best min strel show seen here this season-white or colored. Billy himself is the sole sur vivor of the old school of minstrelsy-at least, of his color. His work now is what it used to be in the old days before the iuetamorphosis into modern minstrelsy which has strayed very far from the old Christy Idea, which gave us the planta- tion negro of a time before the dude city negro had an existence.

 The verdict of the Chicago press re- garding the new Kendall play was laud- atory, and the public indorsed the press opinion. Kendall is supplied with cast and production in the new play that Is characteristic of the producing firm Mir Kendall Is, in fact now doing the most ambitious work of his career in Weather Beaten Benson" and is setting the pace in the matter of theatrical re- ceipts along the line of his travels.
 The story of "Weather Beaten Benson" describes the establishment and building of town called Progress in a part of the Indian Territory opened to settlers by the government. Benson goes there to build factory for the manufacture O. "bean bread ana potato cake," which is presumably a new sort of health food Into the scheme Mrs. Ormsby puts her money.
