The extraordinary success achieved by
the Orpheum Players at the Chestnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, in their pro-
duction of 1.-THE Devil" has prompted the
management to continue the famous play
for this week. Judging by the past
weeks attendance 1.-The Devil bids fair
to establish a new record at the Chestnut,
for he is drawing unto himself the largest
audiences of the season. William Inger-
soil, who is playing His Satanic Highness
In the Orpheum version of Ferenc Mol
mars satire, has scored the triumph of his
career and his Interpretation of the role
must rank with those of Stevens, Arliss,
Dixey and Arlington. His conception of
"The Devil" is exceptionally interesting
because he makes of that parsonage a
wholly human and plausible being. There
Is nothing eccentric about him. On the
contrary, he Is In every respect the refined
and polished man of the world. Mr.. In
gersoll is ably supported In his work by
Marion Barney, Thomas ]. McGrane,
Peter Lang, Louise Randolph and Lottie
Briscoe. The Orpheum production OF
"The Devil" from an artistic viewpoint is
one of the prettiest ever seen here. The
stage settings are beautiful and the light
ing effects are admirable. In the scene
showing the artists studio, Manager
Laferty has fairly excelled all his previous
efforts, and the second act, the ballroom
scene, is picture of which any artist
might well feel proud.

In game at Camden. on Saturday, Fred
Perkins, after making aEclean hit,sprained
his ankle while sliding to second base.
There will be one more game of base
ball on the Mount Holly grounds, on Sat
urday, with Burlington. Each team has
won game and the third will decide the
championship. This game will be played
regardless of any arrangement Manager
Mitchell may try to make. The teams
that come here get what is promised them.
The nine that came here on Saturday was
given a substantial guarantee, and was
not asked to play on percentage, with a
return of 81 cents each, as was the case in
Burlington not long since.
Thorne and Semon for Mount Holly,
Wood and Costigan for Burlington. will be
the batteries for next Saturday.
