"Why Girls Leave Home"

A play with an extremely strong and
plausible story and attended with a
moral of much value is E. j. Carpen-
ter's emotional melodrama why Girls
Leave Home" which will be present
ed for the first time in the west to-
night at the Grand theatre, the en-
gagement being for one week. The
story has to do with a charming young
girl who was led away by an unscru-
pulous villain with the aid of wine,
merry-rnaking and the charm of DO
hemia." She is not a bad girl at heart,
but is made intensely bitter by an older
brother the head of the house. who
does not understand her nature and
tries TO drive where he should lead. AS
her companions are rapidly drawing
her to moral destruction, Providence,
working through her solicitous brother,
shows her the folly of the gay life, AMI
she turns over a new leaf. But at this
point the friends made during her gay
hours endeavor to prevent her regen-

The happy combination OF Louis
James and Shakespearean comedy has
been voted one of the best masterpieces
of managerial perspicuity that has
been displayed for many seasons, for
here is an actor endowed with all the
natural attributes that go to make I'm
a great comedian, and yet who by force
of circumstances has been compelled
for years TO impersonate characters.
which while great delineations of the
classic drama, were not always in har-
mony with the man, for Mr.. James af-
firms with truthfulness that he would
sooner play comedy than tragedy anv
time Thus the auditor can readily un-
derstand the excellent performances
that this noted actor gives when play
ing a part that appeals to him. for how
can a player disclose the best material
in him if his heart and soul is not in
his work? Irrespective of other argu-
ments. an actor must be in sympathy
with his character in order TO repro
duce the best results.

His Falstaff is too well known to

Suffice TO say. however. his success as
the fat and flirtatious knight of Wind

last season, and his performance this
year will naturally be better, as all
great actors, like wine, improve with
age.

"The Royal Chef"

THE Royal Chef" is again coming
10 the Salt Lake theatre, and will nave
its second hearing on Monday night,
and continuing during the first half of
the week. 1t is a musical comedy of
much reputation, and is constructed On
comic opera lines, some of the music
ranging from grand to the popular nu-

while a great many laughs, out of the
dialogue are promised. The piece las

its lengthy runs in both New York and
Chicago, will be in the company, while
few new personalities are brought
forward to receive favor. Among them
is Miss Gertrude Hutcheson, who. il
is said, has a fresh, pure voice, an5
sings as IL for the love of singing. She
possesses demure, ingratiating man.

girls. During the past week sample
of Joseph Harris stuff was had in

that is any criterion of what his style
of work is, then the "Crickets," which
is much bigger attraction, should win
instant and popular favor.

FROM BEHIND THE CURTAIN.

In Fascinating Flora" Louis Harrison
sings a song called Romance and Real
ity." 1t is ancient in theme, but de-
scribed as tunefully set. verse and he
chorus follows:
In dramas and in novels,
Pure virtue always grapples,
The villain gets the good man into jail,
With handouts he is laden.
And the villain steals the maiden,
Pure virtues crushed and vice seems TO
prevail.
But before the play is over.
The good man lands in clover,
And the maiden in tlis arms rests all
serene,
And the bad mans always beSted,
In the last act he is arrested.
And his bitter cup is filled with paris
green.
CHORUS.
But it doesn't happen quite that way in
real life,
In spite of all the plays you ever saw,
Pure virtue always starves UP in the gar
ret,
While vice is dining on the parser floor.
The good man does not always prove the
winner.
He does not get the maiden all serene.
And the bad man eats a twenty-dollar
dinner,
And he opens wine instead of paris
green.
