SPICY ISLE OF SPICE. +"
Good Performance at the Colonial
Saturday Pretty Girls
Dirty Stage.

Several things, one reasonably de-
mands of a musical mixture or cocktail
of comedy such as The Isle of Spice. >.
twice presented here Saturday before
good audiences, and several things
more of the company which produced
it. Whether or not the demands are
complied with determines the success
Of the play the lines should be witty,
the musical numbers tuneful, the COS
tuning attractive and the lighting
effective; the players should be able to
make good with their lines the girls
should be pretty and graceful and the
aggregation should be able 10 sing
Barring the fact that there was not
a single voice of any consequence in
the entire company, and that the en-
semble effects were not strong, these
requirements in 1.-The Isle of Spice"
were fully complied with. The music
was reminiscent and some of the jokes
were old, but for all that not in a long
while has so good play of this char
aoter been produced in Annapolis or in
Baltimore either for that matter.
The chorus in 1.-THE Isle of Spice'-
was unusually pretty, graceful aud
shapely, the cost uming was in
nearly every number beautiful, while
at times striking Ia addition to all
of which there was, pectedly,
of a plot, which is always
agreeable in such a play although
demanded nor anticipated.
The performance was undenyably
marred. however, by the dirty stage,

cusable that when theatrical mana

class production to Annapolis, the

Cupid has had his way as be does

richest girl in the world and the head
of the great Krupp gun works, is to
marry the man of her choice
The lucky man is Dr. c. Won Bohlen

sidered a fortune-hunter. He is a most
interesting man in way, and has had
most interesting career. His SO
years sit lightly on him. Bertha is
only Fl, but there is no disparity, as
Gustav is young for his years, and
Bertha's head sits heavily on her
young shoulders. Great responsible
ties and a great sorrow have sobered
and toned her to maturity, just as
every manly exercise and a free and
stainless manhood have kept Gustav
young. Won Bohlen's father was the
Baden minister at The Hague, a strict
and disciplined German official of the
old school, His idea about Gustav
was that he should first get as fine
an education as Europe could bestow.
From his early adolescence he knew
Bertha Krupp. They used to meet at
Essen, at The Hague and at Carls-
ruhe. Their parents were old friends
and had much in common-e. g., their
love of art and Italian travel. Bertha
used to regard him as a big brother.
and he was in the habit of interest
ing her in books and in endeavoring
to make her schoolroom tasks lighter.
They saw little of eaeh other after

it was not until his return from

as secretary of legation at the Vati-

studies of Renaissance art. 1t was
at a dinner given by the imperial
German ambassador to the Quirinal
that Bertha Krupp and Gustav Won
Bohlen met after their prolonged sep

the old intimacy was revived. Or
rather, it was a new intimacy, the in
