Clyde Fiteh's Merry Comedy
Comes Here With Record OF
Veil Earned Success.
THREE MAN.HATERS ARE
PRINCIPAL CHARACTERS
Tanguay at Proctor's Another
Week--Good Bills at Lyric
and Elsewhere.

nm iris is the alluring title OF
eR Clyde Fitch's %sprightly com
cdy which will AVE it's in
itial production in this city at the New
ark Theatre next week, under the
direction of the Shuberts. The engage
ment will continue throughout the en-
tire week with Wednesday, Friday and
Saturday matinees.
The comedy was first produced in
Berlin where 1t enjoyed a run of nearly
two years. Later it was adapted and
presented in New York at Days The"
atre, where it became, with good rea-
son, the comedy hit of the season. In
it's. departure from conventional types
and it's clever dialogue, 1t was espe-
cially commended. Girls remained at
Daly's Theatre for an entire season,
playing to crowded houses all through
the hottest months of the summer and
leaving but a few weeks ago.
The story of Girls centres around
the trials tha beset a trio of bachelor
maids who come to New York to forge
their way ahead in the world with the
firm determination of succeeding indie
~pendently of men. T]ae action opens in
a. studio shared by these three man
taters. This scene gives the spectator
a graphic picture of how it is possible
to live and keep up appearances on a
small and uncertain income. Even the
way in which a s~tudio-which is also a
llving-room, d.ning-room and Kitchen
is converted into a sleeping apartment
for three by the making up of a folding
bed, a sofa and a Morris chair, is de-
picted with a realism that includes not
only the DOMINIC of night robes, but a
glimpse of pink toes peeping from be-
meath the coverlet. It is at this rather
inopportune moment that the man who
afterwards causes all the trouble APP

'firemen. weary with fighting flames
all day yesterday In the Faubourg st.

ravaging conhagration under control.
Even at this time IL Is impossible to

the apparent damage done, the loss

Paris might just as we'll be trans

far as long distance communication Is

Rumors Of Ineendiarism.
The origin OF the fire Is somewhat
mysterious and numerous rumors
gained currency today while the In
vestigation was being made by the
police and fie bureau officials. 1t was
reported that the confiagration was or
an incendiary nature but later this
gave way TO the newer rumor that IL
had originated from a short circuit.
The employees Of the Central Office are
being questioned today, but SO far this
has revealed nothing.
The description OF the fire as told
by the young women employees or the
ONCE is most graphic. The girls were
first aroused by clouds OF smoke
which surged through the building
seemingly from nowhere. The burn
Ing guttapercha, which was used IN
great quantities In the telephone
| equipment. added pungent odor
which was almost deadly TO the In
mates OF the place. Within a short
| time the offices from the entire hve
floors OF the building were so com
pletely filed with smoke as to render
escape a perilous action. The women
found their way to the windows by
/ keeping close to the walls. The ire
men raised ladders and carried down
the half fainting women while others
ascended the roofs TO adjoining build
ings. carrying ladders and axes and
lines OF hose upon their errand or
rescue.
Police are Powerless.
Meantime the streets were rapidly
filing with a-eFowd- So Yastthat the
police could not control 1t. Platoon
after platoon Of police were ordered
to the scene by the project, but they
were swallowed up In the vortex OF
seething humanity and proved utterly
unable to handle the mighty throuT.
The spectators disregarded the or
ders of the police and crowded upon
the firemen. hindering them In their
work and making the fight against
the flames a much more severe task.
