The Calm SpIFIE.

The people in all lines Of duty who
do the most work are the calmest,
most unhurried people in the COM
munity. Duties never wildly chase
each other in their lives. One task new
er turns another out nor ever compels
hurried, and therefore imperfect, do
ing. The calm spirit works methodical-
", doing one thing at a time and doing
It well, and it therefore works swiftly,
though never appearing to be in haste.

Columbia Theater.

The attraction that is to be introduced at
the Columbia Theater tomorrow evening for
an engagement of one week is the new COM
edy, Mrs. Leffingwelrs Boots by Angus
tus Thomas which was first produced in
New York city last winter by Charles Froh-
man, and ran there at the Lyceum Theater
for over $50 nights. 1t Is declared that Mr..
Thomas has not written anything to equal
Mrs. Leffingwelfs Boots" in point of effu-
sIve humor His droll THE Earl of Paw
tucket" IL not even excepted in the asser-
ton. Comic jealousy--comic because the
outcome of passing frolic-seems to be
the keynote of the fun that is said to per-
wade this new Thomas comedy. The per-
turbed husband. In this instance. has been
daringly likened in mood and might to the
tempestuous Othello, with this difference.
that the Desdemona here is an innocent
woman of small worldly wit and the Iago
an inoffensive youth. who plays trick with
a pair of her boots, TO the subsequent torn
emotions OF her liege lord. The episode is
magntfied into short-liyed scandal out of
which the injured wife energies with safe
ty, ana domestic peace is restored. The
science of osteopathy fs utilized In the fun
essayed in the action. A blizzard is also In
in the bills. While Mr.. Frohman has al
ready recognized that the rlay's the
thing" yet he does not fall to select good
sctors for every new play that he tries.
Those In the cast are William Courteray,
Vincent Serrano, Henry Harmon, Louis
Payne, Grace Heyer, Jessie Busley. Jane

Coming Attractions.
New National Theater.

Tomorrow night at the New National
Theater Charles Frohman will present E.
H. Sothern and Julia Marlowe for a week
of Shakespearean revival, with the roper
toire as follows: Monday, Wednesday and
Friday nights, Twelfth Night" Tuesday
night Romeo and Juliet" Thursday night
and Saturday matinee, THE Tanning Of
the Shrew;" Saturday night, The Merchant
of Venice" presenting Mr.. Sothern and
Miss Marlowe for the first time here in the
respective roles OF Shylock and Portia,
Twelfth Night" the opening play, be-
sides being one of the most engaging OF
Shakespeare's works, is also one that makes
a very wide appeal. Its airy comedy, its
broader humor its delicate sentiment its
half-reveaIed and half-concealed note or
deeper passion, and its quality of chival-
rous romance have always been potent, not
alone with Shakespearean lovers, but with
the average piaygoer well, and no one
OF the great authors works could possibly
afford Mr.. Sothern and Miss Mariowe a bet
ter opportunity for felicitous display OF
their art and their delightful personalities
Mr. Sothern is to be seen here for the first
time as Malvolio, a role which ought to
Miss Marlowe's Viola Is described as ad-
mirable. In The Tanning OF the Shrew''
Mr. Sothern and Miss Marlowe will be seen
as Petruchio and Katherine, respectively,
roles to which they are giving the fdrcial
treatment accorded them in Shakesp cares
time, a novelty productive Of considerable
discussion. Mr.. Frohman has given gil the
plays splendid settings, not in any way de-
tracing from their matter and has had
special music composed for the productions.

Academy Of Music.

The pathetic side OF metropolitan life Is
shown in a realistic manner in Spencer and
Aborns melodramatio production, After
Midnight" which will be seen at the Acad-
envy. commencing tomorrow night. Two OF
the more sensational scenes are said to be
unique in showing phases OF criminal OK
istence never before introduced to the
stage. One OF these is the school for
crooks" an ingenious institution by which
a gang OF desperate criminals make liv-
ing without exposing themselves TO the
law. This school Is shown In full opera
ton IN a secluded rookery In one of New
York's numerous side alleys. Another
scene shows the interior of an exclusive
pool room, typical of New York's gambling
resorts where fashionable people go, d1s-
tinctly different from the pool rooms fire.
quented by ordinary people These two
scenes are important in the plot Of the
drama, and form the locale for thrilling in
cidents. After Midnight contains much
heart interest, fetching comedy and ex-
citing complications.

MAN and Superman."

Robert Lorraine and Man and Superman,"
now in the closing days of a record-break-
ing run at the Hudson Theater, New York,
will come to the National Theater the week
of Monday, February II, this being the
first engagement of this Bernard Shaw
comedy outside New York. Man and SUI
perman'' has outlasted every other produc-
ton in New York since its first presenta-
ton there September 8, and Its receipts
have exceeded the average of any other
play. The witty Irishman who wrote this
satire is recognized as one of the keenest
and brightest writer's of sparkling dialogue
now contributing to the literature of the
stage Mr.. Lorraine has achieved a per-
sonal success In the leading role of John
Tanner, the victim of the Life Force"
who Is run down and captured in the bonds
OF matrinony by the designing Ann White
field.
