Judge by the way IN which 1t opens the
most spacious theatre in Broadway. it
will separate vaudeville from drama,
for one thing. instead Of bringing them
together, the program containing no
transfers from the legitimate stage.
For another thing, the intention mani
fest in the initial entertainment is to
be cosmopolitan. For a third thing,
this bill for the New York start is,
should say, unprecedented in cost.
Every "act" is such as usually would
be the "headliner" or extra number
of a bill. A summary will explain my
meaning. From Germany are brought
the Acrobatic Bakers, whose tumbling
is peculiarized by adeptness in panto-
mimic clowning. The draft from
France consists of Desrouches, Blan-
ca and two dogs. Blanca is a reckless
voluptuary, II you are to believe what
she sings in French to Desrouches;
and he is a phenomenon of ardent reci-
procity, his heart becoming incandes-
cent through electrical device; then his
cheeks glow, his nose reddens, his ears
brighten, and finally his head is a
ck-o'-lantern of effuIgent love. Next,
two dogs, dressed like the man and the
woman, toddle in on their hind legs,
and accompany their master and mis-
tress through the action of songs and
dialogues.
The importation from England is a
pantomime company of men and wo-
men, and their play is a burlesQue Of
London firemen. A fire stations crew
includes a Daniel Lambert and a Tom
Thumb for contrast in sizes, with fun
ny fellows between. The travesty
makes Captain Shaw's famous fire.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-09-01

fighters slow and lazy; there Is a deal
OF knockabout clowning; and, in the
last Of three scenes. the utmost lassi-
tude attends the saving of an ugly
woman from a burning house. The
best chance offered to her is a drop
into a blanket, In which she is tossed
rudely. But when a pretty girl ap-
pears at another window, the 1remen
fight fiercely for the pleasure Of carry
ing her down a ladder.
The drafts from Russia and Spain
are of dancing men and women, who
do a little singing, too. The Russians
dances resemble those Of the Poles,
the women as well as the men wearing
boots and being gymnastic with whirls,
leaps, squats and swift runs. The
Spaniards are a dozen young women
with several men to help them in their
expOsitiOns OF Andalusian grace. The
Russians boots may have made paths
in snow, for all the warmth that the
wearers Indicate; but the Spaniards'
slippers tiptoe over the fires of pas
sion. There are several senoritas who
make voluptuous Carmen sights, pulpy
rather. and suggestive of grease, not to
say garlic; but there is one sinuous
creature-even serpentine in her seem
ingly sOft-ribbed, elastiC-spined, Wrig-
gle-jointed cOntortions-whO may take
blue ribbon from me for saying i'm
proper things with all of her anatomy
except her tongue. All these foreign
eTs come high, and, with George Fuller
Golden and George Evans for two Of
the four American things in the show,
this advanced vaudeville" costs more
than any dramatic entertainment In

New York, Aug. 30.-The outset week
of the theatrical season in Broadway
brings out new farce with a familiar
comedian, a melodrama of western life,
a musical play of girls, and an FAD
vanced vaudeville" show. None of
these is a litter of stage art, nor is any.
one a lowerer, and all are excellent di-
version, each i'm its way Higher ex-
pressions of drama will come along
soon. Meanwhile, 1 will tell you about
the saliencies in the four entertain
ments
The hilarious farce, when knights
Were bOld," is amazingly similar to
The Road to Yesterday" the humor-
Ously romantic drama. In each the
first act is in a restored old English
castle, where tapestries and armor- in
cite a girl to romanticism. She talks
about the prOsineSs of the present in
contrast with the poesy of the past,
and disdains her fiance because he is
an everyday Englishman of now, quite
unlike a gallant knight of then. The
middle portion of both plays consists
of dream, during which the charac-
tiers are set back several centuries, and
all save the dreamer use the speech,
manners and costumes of medieval
England. A final act wdkens the dream
or and readjusts the broken betrothal.
THE Road to Yesterday" was pro-
duced in New York and When
Knights Were Bold" in London sim
ultaneeusly. Now, Mrs. Sutherland
and Miss Dix were in London when
they wrote the one play, and Mrs. Jay,
who wrote the other under a mascu-
line pen name, is a LOndOner; so the
three women may have been loose
tOngued about their compositions; yet
no charge of plagiarism is made by
any of them, and so we must believe
that the resemblance in theme and
scheme is a matter of chance. Think
of this case, you authors who are so
quick to cry Thief when you see
other authors with fiction like your
own.
Francis Wilson in when knights
Were Bold" gives first of all a study in
influenza He comes in wet and chilled
from a days hunting. Did you ever
hear an actor give a good imitation of
a sneeZe? Wilson can't. The dra-
matte schools teach their pupils to
laugh when they don't feel so. They
ought to practice them at sneezing
when their noses don't tickle. Wilson
enacts a lordling who isn't Iordly, and
has a cold in the head that helps to
make his hoity-toity sweetheart dis

The crowd was very still when he
had finished his story.
"Well, at any rate, we can go on
and celebrate Dewey''-Spelman broke
disposition.
Dewey be -" said Cottrell, kand
again there was a shamefaced silence.
This was the sentiment of all.
And then there came through the
rare stiffness of the night loud re-
port and a fixing, rushing sound.
The crowd hurried to the door just in
time to see a shower of golden sparks
dropping behind the crest of San Jago
mountain-then rocket after rocket.
Suddenly wild column of fire shot
up against the sky.
The southwest breeze brought down
scattered sounds of singing.
Then before the citizens of Los Gar
pillos could recover from their sur
prise the crash of a military band
broke on the night and the tune it
played was "There'lI Be a Hot Time in

is little short of remarkable, in that it
shows what marvellous things the hu-
man body can be made to do, when
physically trained.
Professor Wise appears as a crayon

piete the bill.
Few melOdramas of the last few sea-
sons have won so great a measure Of
success as ''The Chorus Girl" which
will be seen at the Grand theatre four
nights and Wednesday matinee, start
ing this evening. The work is said to
possess many lasting and pleasing
qualities which are bound to insure for
the play long life before the amuse-
mentioning public. Miss Della Prin-
gle, who heads the cast in the 'charac-
ter of Twister, the Chorus Girl, is a
finished artist in every respect, and her
work is Of such a high-class order that
she has firmly established herself in the
hearts of the theatre-goers wherever
she has appeared in the part. She is
not only clever in this particular char
acter of the chorus girl, but the special
ties she introduces are away from the
beaten path and out of the ordinary.
Special care and stage management
has been given the play, that it may
have the proper and necessary atmos-
phere so essential to a successful pro-
duetiOn, and the management feels that
the presentation is practically a perfect
one, but taken all in all. there is so
much that is pleasing and good in The
Chorus Girl that no one wonders at
the success the piece has attained.
Everyone who appreciates the good
that the theatre can do will appreciate
the play, for it is clean and wholesome
throughout; it's atmosphere is refresh
ing, and there is nothing suggestive in
the story that it unfOlds. It's humor
is crisp and quaint and its ragged cpl
grams are delightful and the bits of
hOmely philosophy are long remem-
bered by those who hear them.
During the action of the play spe-
cialties will be introduced by different
members of the company. including
Miss Della Pringle, Claude Kelley, Ed
Bellville, Fred Stephens and Miss Lau-
"a Laird. THE Chorus Girl will hold
the boards at the Grand theatre four
nights and Wednesday matinee, start
ing this evening.
Commencing Thursday evening, and
continuing the balance of the week
with a bargain matinee on Saturday
afternoon, the sensational melodramat-
ic success, The Lighthouse Robbery"
will receive its initial local presenta-
ton. The Lighthouse Robbery is
said to be one of those tensely inter-
eSting dramas of sea folk and sea
life, of which there are so few on the
American stage today, but which have
been so successful Whenever produced.
