"Taps" Cights out), the military play in which John E. Kellerd is starring, is so perfect a reproduction of conditions in the German army that it met with the success of two years run in Berlin. Later the play was translated into English, when H, B. Irving, only son of the great tragedian. presented the drama for many months in London, almost simultaneously with it's pro- auction at the Lyric theater, New York. Traps" has a significance to every one familiar with militery terms, and gives much opportunity for a dramatist to secure strong situations and thrilling scenes. Supporting Mir Kellery Is a cast of excellent actors headed by Miss Viola Fortescue, the beautiful daughter of George For tesque, the noted comedian, Traps will be the attraction at the Hyperion Monday and Tuesday with a special New Years matinee on Tuesday.

hero beats the stage record for kissing, His kissing opportunities in the first and second acts may be limited, but with his osculations of the third and fourth act he more than makes up for his deficiencies in the previous two acts.
 In the third act one may find a good study in the art of kissing, Quincy Adams Sawyer is at a good oId-fash- toned husking bee and when he Ends g. red ear, takes great pleasure evil dently in carrying out the penalty of kissing every girl present. He goes from the free from care kiss to the reverent salute he presses on the brow of the blind girl, Alice Pettingill. The actor who plays the role told an inter- viewer in New York. recently that the kissing he had to do was a fearful boar. He looked upon 1t as having to do so much kissing for such week
 He complains because the manage ment gave him a number of extra girls to kiss in the husking bee Ecene 1 Quincy Adams Sawyer will be pre- sented as the New Years offering at the New Haven theater for one week 1 theeF5setrt2?e mentkchrfw cmfw fl l commencing cn Monday night, De cember 31, at the regular popular prices There will be matinees Tues 1 day, Wednesday and Saturday.

This afternoon at the Bijou there will be the first of the~two holiday week matinees. The attraction of the week is William Gillette's famous comedy of English life Because She Loved Him So." It is a very amusing comedy in three acts with each act cramed, damned full and overfowing with laughter producing situations and dialogue.
 The play s dated at the present time and it tells the story of a young couple who are continually auarreling. An older couple try to show by ex- ample how 1t looks to be always squabbling and their make believe" quarrel is the source of much fun.
 As a special feature this week there is little nine year old Miss Moriarity in sones and dances between the acts. Tomorrow there will be the usual Saturday souvenir matinee.

There have been many famous kiss es ca the stage. The first one of note was the Emma Abott kiss and more recently there has boon the Nethersole- Carmen kiss. Most people would not give the snap of a finger for 9lay in which they could not see the hero make love to one or more pretty wom- sn; they like to see them indulge in esculatory exercises as often as the story of the play may permit.

LNI EXPERIMENTS.
Hyperion Theates.

Few people realize the element of chance that enters into the production of a. new musical play. Starting months ago, the Herman Oppenheimer company read the book and lyrics or Allen Lowe and A. Baldwin Sloane's "The Mimic and the Maid" Changes had to be made. finally the whole thingg seemed to be in good shape on paper. that is, as fas as experts could judge. Then began the actual work of preparation. The scenic artist was called in and after many conferences with the author and manager he pre- pared the scene models of the 2iece. Then came more changes until this flnallymet with the approval of all concerned, and carpenters started on the scenery itself Then another art ist was called in, studies th9 book and submits colored drawings for the cos tunes. More changes until this too, meets with the, approval of the pow CTS that be, when the costume people are allowed to start upon the frocEs, frills and furbelows that are to deck the beauty chorus as well as the more prosaic garments for the rest of the cast. Then comes the lithographer who submits design after design for the Autographs, three sheets and stands, until this, too, is brought up to the mark. And so things go on un- til finally everything seems to be start ed
 Then comes the herolc task of en- gazing the company, which is itself a tremendous job, then the weeks Of re- hearsals eliminating in the final dress and scene rehearsal which comes on the night before the opening and often lasts until nearly morning.
 And then comes the test. Imagine. If you can. the state of mind of au- thor and manager, who, having done their best, must now stake everything upon the approval of the fckle public and knowing as they do, that the average first night audience is an aw- ful thing Nearly every patron of a theater on an opening night seems to imagine himself an Alan Dale or Will liam Winter, come to criticise and not to enjoy and withal firmly tnbued with the idea that the turning down of their thumbs means death to the niece and financial disaster to any one who would dare to back it after they have rendered their verdict. Their faces say as plain as so many words "show 1Js" and they steadfastly refuse to applaud until they are fairly car ried off their feet. However. once started, the first nighters are generally very generous, and 1t is only the sick enin- wait before they do start that worries the producers.
 If their approval seems hearty and spontaneous the manager begins to see rosv visions of Broadway engagements while the author uses up sheet after sheet of paper figuring up prospective royalties.
 If on the other hand the piece does not prove a go, them but aus Kip ling says, "thats another story" and has nothing whatever to do with 'The Mimic and the Maid" which comes to the Hyperion Friday and Saturday with a Saturday matinee.

The NlcoIet


 Tt all depends upon the point of view" is just as true as What is one mans meat is another's poison" We are prone to approve as right that which is conducive to our profit, and condemn that which there isn't a cent in" The man who operates the films at the Nicolet takes things from his standpoint; that it, if. the word is per missible according to the standards of Brander Matthews and other apostles of the erudite, he Is filmatic and ap- proves of everything that occurs that makes good subject for moving picture for the continuous perform ance. The indications of a war be- tween Japan and the United States growing out of the San Francisco school trouble, as announced in the scareheads of the one-cent evening dreadfuls, brought the joy of expect ancy to the film manipulation. But when he read the sensible sheets, print ed in one color, that are read, and not red in ink and anarchistic hue, and learned that there was more fuss than 1 feathers, he condoled with Manager White Pity there's to be no war; we'd had some dandy films if they'd got to scrapping."
 The manager consoled: But just think of the films for Friday-"A Life boat Rescue" Good Old Five-Cent | Trolley Ride" and "The Villain Still Pursued Her"
