New National Theater.

After an engagement in New York that
lasted for more than six months, that droll
comedian, Sam Bernard, will arrive at the
New National Theater on Monday evening
next in ''The "Rollickfng Girl" Its mana
gers assert that 1t consists of three hours
of fun and melody, at the same time pre-
senting good plot reasons for all that takes
place. The girl" in this case makes up
her mind on the eve of her wedding to run
away. with the determination OF becoming
a famous actress. While trying to bring
such result about she happens to meet
theatrical wig maker who is in a position
to get her a place on the stage. Here,
through a combination of circumstances
she becomes the leading woman of the
company. The latter event causes duel
with displaced rival and the heroine is
wounded. No more serious results happen,
and in due time she marrfes her faithful
sweetheart. Bernard appears in the part
of SchmaltZ, the builder of artificial head
dress. He has a number of special scenes
that enable him to show his ability as a
maker but that in which he shows his
pretensions to stagecraft and in which he
sets out to give some instructions In acting
to his protege has attracted most atten-
ton. But his sense of duty does not con-
line itself to lessons In the art of theatrica
speech and department. As Llona, Miss
Hattie Williams character is a very at
tractive girl; the energetic wig maker is
compelled to vary histrionic tuition with
the work of throwing the eJohnnies'' out
of her reception room. This process, like
the rest of the stage business. is said to be
OF the merriest. Owing to the numerous
musical numbers in THE Roiiicking Grit
1t is announced that in order TO conclude
the performance at a reasonably early hour
the curtain will rise at o'clock In the
evening and at o'clock at the only NATL
nee, which viii be on Saturday.

THE Clansman' is one of the few plays
whose authors are as prom, nent in the
public eye as any of the performers who
represent their characters. Thomas Dixon,
jr., was born in Cleveland county. N. c.,
January IL, 1854. His father was a we'll
known Baptist minister and his maternal
uncle was Col. Leroy McAfee, grand titan
of the Invisible Empire Ku Klux Khan. He
was graduated from Wake Forest College.
North Carolina, at the age of nineteen, and
the following year, before he had attained
his legal majority, became member of the
North Carolina legislature - the youngest
man that ever sat in that body. At the
same period he studied law and was ad-
mirted TO practice in all the courts, but re-
signed these privileges in 1856 to enter the
Baptist ministry. After a brief period as
pastor of church in Raleigh. N c., he oc-
cupied a Baptist pulpit in Boston and the
next year accepted call to New York re-
naming in charge of the Peoples Baptist
Church until 1899. AS pulpit figure Mr..
Dixon was remarkable. His attacks on
Tammany misrule brought him into prom1-
