should prove very like Bonita, whom
we all knew and loved in Arizona
outside of the characterizations, how
ever, there is nothing to indicate that
Miss Feigl ever even saw any one of
the three plays mentioned.
The story of Texas involves the
love of Jack Dallam, called Fresh
water Jack" for Texas West daughter
of his employer. Jack is q superior
sort of a COW puncher; illiterate but
with the instincts of a gentleman. AS
matter of course Lord Angus Trevor
also falls in love with the girl. Pas
quale, a greaser desperate who cher
ishes a grudge against Dallam, dis
covers gold on Vests land and tells
Lord Angus, who straightway lays his
plans to secure control of the property.
Then Pasquale shoots and seriously
wounds Dallam.
He is arrested but escapes and re-
turns to finish his work when the cow
boy. who was conValescing from his
wound and who, few moments before
had been unable to walk alone, worsts
the Mexican In a rough and tumble
fight and finally stabs him to death
with his own knife. This scene is the
one big absurdity of the play. Suisse
quently Dallam comes into some money
and buys the West ranch himself thus
keeping the gold mine in the family,
formed, neither he nor any of his
friends ever discovers the existence Of
the treasure.
The play has been excellently mount
ed. Two sets of scenery are shown
one, an exterior of the ranch house, be-
ing particularly effective. The costum-
ing too, is In keeping with the require
ments, something that rarely happens
with s. New York made western melo-
drama.
The best acting in the piece is done
by Ted F. Griffin in the role of the ras
cally greaser. Nora Shelby gives a
breezy Interpretation of Texas West
and Grace Lockwood contributes q
thoroughly humorous portrayal of Mrs.
jimmie Peppercorn, a widow in the
earlier acts and bride before the play
is ended. Allen ST. John does very well
with the role of Oklahomy.

FAKE AlRSHIP TAXES
TUMBLE AT GRAND
PLAYERS NARROWLY ESCAPE
SERIOUS INJURY
Miss Elise Schuyler and Harry War
dell Plunge Twenty-Five Feet
to the Stage, but Are
Unhurt

Elsie Schuyler and Harry Wardell,
of the Gayety company, we've thrown
from height of twenty-five feet out
of an auto at the Grand opera house
last night during the performance OF
1.-The FOUNDERS of the Gay White
Way" Wardell lit on his shoulders on
the stage, after caroming off the plen-
tiful anatomy of Manager Tom Baker,
who happened to be below. Miss
Schuyler chung to the machine in mid
air long enough for several of the
players and stage hands to get beneath
her, and they caught her as she tum-
bled out.
Wardell was badly shaken up, but
not seriously hurt Miss Schuyler es-
capped with a bad fright. Both nervily
went right on with the scene, making
their entrance upon the stage afoot,
however, instead OF by means of the
suspended auto.
But, like the Wright aeroplane, the
Gayety airship has been retired form
business by the accident, and here
after, during the run of this show,
Miss Schuyler and Mr.. Wardell will
make their entrances in more ortho-
dox way.
Can't Explain Accident
Just how the accident occurred Is in
explicable. All during the previous run
of the show the auto worked admir-
ably. 1t had been tested to carry 1000
pounds and the piano wires that sup
ported 1t remained intact. 1t is sup
posed, however that one wire, at
tached to the rear of the suspended
machine, caught in the scenery and
thus did not pay out, holding back the
rear and tipping 1t to an upright posi-
ton. 1t was this that threw Mr.. War
dell over backwards. Miss Schuyler
was cool enough to cling tightly to
the seat. and though hanging, twenty
five feet in air, head downward, did
not lose her hold till told to do So
Then she, too, turned over backward
and landed safely.
Miss Schuyler's husband. Mr.. Kirk
patrick, the musical director, rushed
from the orchestra pit, and that is
about the only way the audience knew
that anything was wrong. There was
no excitement In the auditorium and
comparatively none on the stage.
Frightened? OF course 1 was" said
Miss Schuyler, but what was there to
do about it? I simply hung on till it
was time to jump, and then / jumped.
Then, the fact that 1 had to run right
on and do my entrance song nerved
me, / suppose, to continue the per-

about going up In the thing. anyhow:

Mr.. Wardell attributed his escape
from injury, iespite his fall of TWEEN

and fortunately escaped without even
a bruise to show for his experience.
