TO SAY FIRST HIGH MASS

Washington has given it's quota, and
more. to all walks of life, and its represent
atives have invariably given good ac-
count of themselves. Many of its sons
have joined the ministry and shed great
luster on their cloth both at home and
abroad The latest Washngtonian to so
distinguish himself is Rev. John A. Breen,

Instead of being an eliminate creature
with lustroUs eyes, supported by a cnorus
OF sprghtly girls, The Silver Girl" the
new western drama. by Edward Peple. au-
thor of The Prince Chap" has been an
nounced as a straight" dramatic produc-
ton. with all of the scenes laid in New
York, except the last which is located at
mining camp In Nevada. This will be
surprise to many playgoers here, as gen.
eTal impression exists that the new play
is q musical production.

Mckee and George FawCett. represents the
new play, was a visitor here during the
past week. The Silver Girl will be pre-
scented at the New National Theater the

''C.ity Miles From Boston.

The second attraction announced for the
National season is George NJ. Cohan. sup
ported by a notable cast in his own produc-
ton. Fifty Miles from Boston" his fifth
big musical play. Associated with Mr.. Co
liams. Emma Janvier. Louise Rial and
other prominent players. Fifty Miles from
Boston" is said TO be the most ambitious
effort of this young author, play wright and
star This in view of its worth not only as
a musical production. but from a purely
dramatic standpoint, a combination that is
seldom successfully realized, even by au-
thors and composers of greater experience
than Mr. Conan. The scenes of the play
are laid just fifty miles out from Boston, IN
a little town by the name of BroOkVille,
and the players are intrusted with the i'm
presentations Of the different types and char
acters that may be found there. Songs
and chorus punCtuate the three acts and
the piece IS declared to be an excellent ex-
ample OF Mr.. Cohan's bright and breezy
methods in the art Of comedy construction.
Edna Wallace Hopper does not need intro

call the fact that 1t at this theater. in

and one that has added another triumph TO
