Isabel Irving VIII Be Greeted
by Many Admirers
Here

When she played in The Crisis" at
the Majestic Thester last season Isabel
Irving won a clientele that assures her
hearty greeting when she appears to-
morrow evening as the star Of Susan
IN Search OF a Husband" at the Nov
city. In this play she is said TO be
even more charming than in the one
that enabled her TO win such q strong
San Francisco favoritism.
II is 8 dramatization OF Jerome K.
5erome's story, The Dovecote," and
the major portion OF the play, con
cerning Susan herself and her search
for her husband, is drawn from an oc-
currence which some years ago was
given prominence IN the English press.
II had 10 DO with the clandestine mar
riaEe OF a scion Of a noble house while
he was midshipman on British
cruiser in American waters and his
subsequent disappearance from the ken
OF his new wife At the time OF this
incident the family OF the nobleman
made many efforts TO trace the bride,
with the idea OF buying her of, as
they were under the belief that she
was hardly UP 10 the standard re
ouired for the wife Of a peer Of the
realm. This incident has been super
imposed upon the story CLEANED orig
inaliy by Jerome from an actual oc-
currence at an old inn IN Wales. where

q profitable investment IN sight, but
the rising ediice represents 10 him a
saving OF $4,000 that would have gone
into the pockets Of middlemen and con-
tractors. had he sat idly by and ac-
cepted the building material at the
market price. Bradbury made q
trip TO the Northwest country, con-
tracted for and secured his own ma
terial and is now erecting HIS building
with large saving.
When the citizens began the work
OF rehabilitation after the fire friends

was the last straw on the old man S
back, shook their heads sadly as they
gazeo on the ruins Of what was once
the Bradbury Hotel at Polk and Cali
fornia streets and murmured, Poor
oid Bradbury. Down and out"
But Bradbury wasn't out. After call
ing for estimates on the erection OF a
new building and also FOR two others
IN different parts OF the city, Bradbury
decided that he could get building ma
terisls from the wholesalers cheaper
than from the contractors. With the
