A NOTABLE EVENT
"A Midsummer Nights Dream to Mendelssohn's Immortal
 Musical Setting.

Since New Haven has been the city chosen for the first American produc- tion of Shakespeares "Midsummer Nights Dream" to Mendelssohn's i'm mortal musical setting, at the Fly perion Monday evening, November 16 by the Ben Greet players of London and the Russian Symphony orchestra of New York, 1t behooves New Haven to sit up and take notice as 1t has never done before in matters musical and dramatic. There will be many mu- sicians of note and dramatic folks in town that ought to see this elaborate presentation which is on a scale never before attempted by any managers in America.
 The stage setting for the Dream" Is magnificent and MT. Greet is now in New York personally, experimenting the fashioning of the wonderful draperies he has designed, and is in conference almost hourly with the noted artists and decorators who are HlaKlnB the settings.
 Not only as a first American per formance is the play notable but it Is also the first time that New Haven has ever seen so large an orchestra assisting at a dramatic performance. There have been large orchestras here for symphony work but never before in the history of the city has band of sixty of Americas best musician, appeared either in operatic or dramatic productions It will be most un usual sight to New Haven eyes to se' such large orchestra pit.
 A very large interesting feature O the performance will be the solo dance by the famous sculptress and danseuse Mrs Lon Wall Moore of Chicago, an' the fairy dance by the ballet of chil dren who are to come down from Bos ton for the performance. The chldrel also sing the choruses with the tw first fairies who have very beautiful solos and duets written for them,
 For the accommodation of those wh wish to obtain seats before the publi sale opens a mail order sale is now O and orders and checks may be ad dressed to MT. B. D. Eldridge of tn Hyperion.

play "The Girl Behind the Counter" pn Friday and Saturday, November 20 snd 21. MT Fields, his associate play ers, and nis production were a revela- hon to New York playgOers, although that city has seen numberless clever musical entertainments in the past and sumptuous mountings; but The Girl Behind the Counter" is in many respects, the superior Of them all.
 MT. Fields himself added greatly to his reputation as q comedian of rare power and versatility. He long has been favorte here by reason of his work with the firm of Weber & Fields and in Tt Happened in Nordland" bnd About Town are sole star, but never has he had so congenial a role as that of Henry Sniff, "The Multi piled Millionaire" in "The Girl Be- hind the Counter" A poor German, metamorphosed into a man of great wealth who, by force of circumstances h compelled to masquerade in a de- partment store as q detective, soda fountain clerk. and floor walker, and later as head waiter In q restaurant, his work bears all the stamps of pos tive genius. Two scenes in which MT, Eields predominates--th scene at the Boda fountain and the drilling of the waiters---1are enough in themselves to garry any show to success, but when Is added to this MT Fields delightful comedy in other situations, and the ef- Forts of his assistants, who number nearly one Hundred, with their songs, dances and gorgeous costumlne, one can easily imagine what treat pat tons are having these days
 Surrounding MT Fields arc such players as Miss Connie Ediss the fam nus English comedienne, with her typ lcal British dialect and wdo was brought to this country especially te sseate the role of Mrs. Henry sniff the

RARE ORGAN TREAT
William Wolstenholme, Blind English 0rganist, to Play on
 Newberry Instrument.
IS A RECOGNIZED |. EADER
His Compositions, Begun at the Age of Fifteen, Make Up a Nota-
 ble List.

The concert on tho Newberry organ next Tuesday evening by William Wol- stenholme Is one of those opportuni- ties to hear q man who Is universally declared to be tho leader in his special work, which are necessarily rare. MT. Wolstenhome is the one man today who Is composing organ music that is recognized as the best. Totally blind from his early youth Mir. Wostenholme showed from the age of fifteen years special genius and passion for the or gan. His "Allegretto in A Flat" com posed at the age of fifteen was the first of notable list of compositions which while in their most leading numbers confined 10 the organ, still in numer- ous happy instances have flowed be- yond this field into piano forte compo- sitions works for string trio quartet and quintet and number of shorter pieces for wind instruments.
 Of special interest, in consideration of the fact that MT Wolstenholme is the leading composer for tho organ now | living, Is the announcement that part of his program will consist of improvs- ations on themes selected by members of the audience, thus afrording an op- portunity to see a master at creative work, genius in the workshop Other numbers on the program will include characteristic selections from his best | known compositions, and some of the works of Mendelssohn, Rollins, Bach and St sacns.
 Mir Wolstenholme is organist at All Saints church, Norfolk Square, Hyde Park, London, England having accept ed the position there four years ago on | leaving his former position at Kings weigh House church, Grosvenor Square, London. The vicar of All | Saints church, speaking of Mir. Vol stenhplmes work said ITO listen to | William Wolstenholmc every week as I do is to listen to fresh spring charg- cd with the sparkle and the gaietv of clear rushing water, He never tires or wearies one; there is always the un- expected, the possibility, the potential ity, and just when you think he may be getting a little volatile there comes l Q phrase, q chord suggestion of an old time memory which carries you back to Grcgoran times and induces a picture of tonsured monks with their violoncelos rolling out the m,Flc which hohts the great Amen" Religion Is touched with emotion as Mathew lAr- hold says and tho man who makes such music Is spiritual force"
 A great many of Mir Wolstenholme's best works have been extemporized and later copied down by him in Brallle notation for the blind, and then dictat- cd to his musical amanuensis.
 Arrangements have been made for tickets for the concert to be on sale at steinert's Music store, 777 Chapo
