1t was Austin Lewis, the lawyer

ladies, and when he finished reading
he mercilessly assailed it. Admitting
the beauty and poetry of the lines, he
deplored the theme, saying that al
though he had no particular desire to
see art made vehicle of moral
preaching he did object to arts utili-
zation as preacher of gross inn
morality. Consequently, to him the
play was hideous, because it clothed

Dustin Farnum does not fail TO win

Comic Opera and MinsfreIs

Alice Nelson's first operate vehicle.
The Singing Girl" is to be started
on a run tomorrow evening at the
American Theater. with all the mem
bers of the San Francisco Opera Com
pany in the cast. The book is by
Harry B. Smith and Stanislaus STANCE
and the music by Victor Herbert.
After stepping from the ranks of the
old Tivoli chorus into a principal posi-
ton with the then famous Bostonians.
Miss Nelson had The Singing Girl
written for her, and it proved the
foundation of greater things. for when
she returns to San Francisco in the
near future it will be as a prominent
artist in the San Carlos Grand Opera
Company.
While the music of 1.-The Singing
Girl is Victor Herbert music and
therefore bound to be tuneful, the book
affords excellent opportunity for Teddy
Webb and his brother comedians to
make plenty of fun, and they can be
depended upon to make the most of the
opportunity.
Vests minstrels open a weeks en-
gagement at the Central Theater to-
morrow night, and among them are
such wellknown burnt cork comedians
as George Van, Dick Mitchell. Hayes
and Graham, Johnny Christy and Billy
Warrington, and such sweet singers as
Roswell j. Wright, James Contwell.
William Renard, Lloyd Ballet and
Raymond Rand.
In addition to the usual minstrel
singing, dancing and comedy features,
the bill includes an act entitled Moon
light on the Suwanee," which is said to
be one of the most picturesque produc-
tions ever staged, picturing as it does
Hawes Landing on the famous Suwanee
River. Another interesting feature is
The Battleship Four a genuine old

What Inspired the Demand?

Various interpretations have been
placed upon the inspiration of that de-
mand," Miss Jewel continued. "Some
say she was insanely in love with
John, and, being spurned by him,
sought revenge. Others say she was
merely an innocent instrument Of her
mothers desire to punish the man
who constantly denounced her. Con-
sidering the girls age and the char
acter of her mother / am inclined to
accept the latter finding"
But why did Salome beseech John

love with him." put in Miss Odell,

Was it fair, she asked, to overlook
the symbolism of the play-the in

argument. Mr.. Bacon's countenance

II think that club lady was right, .
he said. "The people who are com

prompting. Some-and the majority

everything else in view of the poetry
of the lines and the beauty of the

Il think, was my answer, that the
period when the young girl ruled our
playhouses absolutely-or rather when
they were ruled by the masculine idea
of what theyoung girl ought to sec
is sliding farther into history every
day"
"By which you mean"
That your 'Salomc' will draw many
witnesses, and that the majority of
them will not be hypnotized by the
poetry of the play"

"Im certain of it."
