''The Honeymooners," a New Song
Play Last Night.

Play Last Night.
THE Honeymooners," a new song
play by the Yankee Doodle comedian,
was presented before a small audience
at the Hyperion theater last evening.
The play consists of parts from several
of George Cohan's former pieces. his
G. vaudeville sketch, cunning for
Office and the Governors Son" being
most conspicuously used.
There is a plot to the play, but to
describe it would be like picturing the
twists and turns of a Chinese puzzle
Be 1t sufficient to know that there was
a man who was running for the office
Of mayor and his bride. He has a
daughter; she has son; and neither
told the other. Then, to make matters
worse, the two children were in love.
There is the usual country constable,
a loud-talking manager, the mayor and
an actress, and there you are. Every
one is found in everyone else's arms
and then all ends well.
If it were not for the business of the
chorus and a catchy song or two the
first act would be poor. The second
act is practically the vaudeville sketch,
Running for Office" even down to
some Of the rather aged jests, and the
third act is saved from being worse
than nothing by the song, Coin to
Die; Coin to Have Some Fun" which
is the best one in the play.
Willie Dunlay did his best to initiate
the sponsor for the play in action, APP
pearance, speech and dancing. He sue
oeeded in way in the latter Miss
Lola Merrill made a very attractive

like the rest Of the cast, she did not
seem to think it necessary to render
her lines at the top of her lungs, which
was refreshing. The work Of the other
members of the cast was only fair.
"The Honeymooners" may have been
a hit as, summer show but 1t seems
to be a rather unfortunate vehicle with
which to meet cold winter.

new to the stage 1t emhodles all Of
the ingredients of man who measures

The second attraction of the week
was also ushered in with a downpour
that even outstripped Monday nights
shower, and once again a large crowd
oraved the elements ana contributed
their applause in making Bertha, The
Sewing Machine Girl" a distinct SUE
cess. Much had been heard of the sue
cesses this attraction has been recelv-
ing and all were convinced that they
were merited
The plot is rather complicated but
well developed. Bertha is coming from
the country with her blind sister to
New York to earn money to cure her
sisters blindness. Just as she arrives,
Harold Cutting, the william, abducts her
to kill her. 1t seems tnat she stands
in his way of getting large fortune.
He has killed her father in years past
but as he died he wrote a confession
Of the crime and also told how Bertha
is his direct heir. The papers are lost,
so he wants to get Bertha out of the
way and his attempts surely are des-
perate. Tom Jennings, a fireman, is
Bertha's lover and he saves her on
many occasions. Archibald stubbs, a
typical Englishman, who is not so
thick as he seems, also has a hand in
saving Bertha on several occasions.
Bertha finds employment in Ricca-
Douma's sweat-shop and there there
is an attempt to kill her, but she es-
eapes. Then her home catches on fire
and Tom saves her and her sister.
In the last act, Cutting forces Bertha
to kill a policeman by aiming the re-
volver she, holds ana then pressing her
finger on the trigger She is tried and
Cutting has hribed her lawyer, who IN
disgust gives UP the case because Ber-
tina won't let him run the case as he
