NEWARK THEATRE PATRONS FIND "THE TOP o.
THE WORLD" A VERY PLEASANT PLACE TO VISIT
A Merry Musical Extravaganza
with an Abundance of
Pretty Tunes.
GEORGE MUNROE AS
A FROLICS0ME QUEEN
Divides HOnOrs with Anna
Laughlin, Kathleen Clifford
and Bailey and Austin.

Merriment was rife last night at the
was introduced to the wonders of THE
Top o. tn World" This very interest
ing locality possessed a very lively pop
ulace and an atmosphere of Christmas
and ice and Esquimaux. There was
something pretty to see or funny to
hear all the time there. .
1.-THE Top o TIL World" was written
by Mark e. Swan, who has wedged the
musical numbers apart with a cheerful
lot of nonsense. There is a fairy story
mixed in abou a little girls expert
ences in the land where Kris Kringle
has his workshop. Imprisoned princes
and animated dolls, polar explorers and
polar bears play a considerable part in
it. There is some brilliant and hand
setting.
Manuel Klein and Anna Caldwell
wrote the music, and very light and at
tractive music it is. There were a great
many fetching dances along with it.
These were arranged by William Rock
and Luigi Albertieri, both experts in the
dCNlSlllS VI ltII SiCilO16dH HONtllleS.
Their most striking achievement was
a ballet in which six chorus maids were
assisted by as many collie dogs.
The comedy of the piece vas attended
to by George w. Munroe, Fred Bailey
and Ralph Austin. Mr.. Munroe wore
petticoats, as usual, his character being
Aurora Borealis, queen of the Northern
Lights. He cavorted around the stage
with all the grace of a baby elephant.
He was funny all the time, but when
he had his little heart-to-heart talk
with the audience in the second act, he
excited an uproar. Bailey and Austin
seconded him capitally.
Miss Kathleen Clifford played a little
girl, who wanted to grow up, nj who
was such a dainty miss, with such en-
gagingly girlish ways. that the audi
ence much preferred her as she was.
She was light as a feather on her feet
when she danced. Miss Anna Laughlin,
who represented an Esquimau belle,
sang sweetly and was exceedingly
pleasing to the eye. Arthur Hill was
a funny polar bear.
1t was a captivating performance in
every particular.

New Jersey Congressman Would
Change Republican Emblem
from Elephant to Dog.

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Represel-
tative Eugene w. Leake, of New Jer-
sey, i5 a speech delivered in the House
today, criticised President Roosevelt as
desiring to perpetuate himself in Office
by procuring the election of a proxy.
He conceded even more than enough
ability TO the President, but declared
that he lacked dignity and poise.
He would have the emblem of the
Republican party changed from an ele-
plant to a dog, if the present condi-
lions were to continue. because the
dog can both bark and wag its tail at
the same time, so that no one is able
to know which end to believe"
