Mir. Thomas Addison, formerly of Alabama. but now of Cincinnati, and the author of several theatrical sue- cesses. has completed arrangements for the production of his first serious play, Meyer 6 Son, in which new and striking note has been struck in Amer lean drama. MT. Gustave Frohman will produce the play the coming season.
 Reviews of the theme have already called attention to the wide difference between the type of Jew presented on the stage, either seriously or in carica- ture, and the character drawn by MT. Addison, and those who are able to analyze persons, creeds, prejudices, con- fess that the pendulum as far as the drama goes must swing backward, that indeed the Shylock of the stage must give way to the type representative of a race standing for so much that is best in American civilization.
 Whether MT. Addison has written his play with the object of eradicating prejudice against the Jew, or whether he has sought only to create striking and different theme, his play was at least powerful enough to cause several managers to refuse to present it on account of the possibility of offending both Jew and Gentle.
 While we are constantly deploring the degeneration of the stage and hunt ing about for a new theme for en- nuied threatre-goers, still when a start ling tn ought is given expression there are few who have courage enough to analyze 1t. few who will give 1t a chance to expand. MT. Addison found difficulties in getting a manager who would bring out his play, written some months ago, but when MT. Frohman read it he acknowledged that while the author had struck a new note, still he believed that there could be no ob- lection to the theme from any point of view. MT. Frohman believes that MT. Addison has placed the American Jew absolutely as he stands in this country today. He thinks that MT. Addison has endowed his hero with qualities that compel admiration. Se1f-sacri fee is the fine essential note in hIs character.
 Christian or no Christian" said MT. Frohman, the dominant question is. Is the heroine worthy of the love of this man and hIs ideals? The story is prettily told with a sympath etio love tale that will appeal to the masses. It is in the line of wholesome plays, the kind of which there is an agitation from ocean to ocean,"
 MT. Addison has made study of the Hebrew race. He is said to admire it for it's magnificent courage, philan- thropy and varied attainments, and from his observations he has depicted a type that it is believed will live In the American drama because 1t rep resents the Jew as he Is found in American life.
 Not at all in defense of the Jew, but giving him justice is said to be MT. Additon's attitude to his new play.

 Today marks the opening of the festiyi- ties in old Quebec. Many Americans have gone there to witness the stirring spec tacles to be presented in the firing of guns from immense battleshIps and cruisers off the citadel. when they roar their welcome 10 England's future king and other bril- liant entertainments. For, though here In the stronghold of the old France, the f1eur de lis is more dear than the English rose, during the celebration of Quebee's tercen- tenary and while the Prince of Wales Is within her gates the people will sing only God Save the King and Rule Brit tania."
 Many Birmingham people who have vis- tied Quebec in days gone by are longing to see it now when it's people are all astlr over this one great celebration, which they hope to make perfect. The most elabor ate regattas, naval displays and pageants have been prepared which it is thought by some will be the most elaborate of their kind that have ever taken place in this country. Probably the most brilliant fea- ture of the celebration will be the grand historic parade, which will present the history of the old citys career beginning with the landing of Samuel Champlain it's founder, from q replica of his original vessel and following with men represent ing heralds at arms, and Jacques Cartier with more than a hundred sailors; also Henry " and his court, and at later periods La Salle and toilette and Coureurs de Bois Montcalm and Lewis at the head of their regiments with marine troops, Canadian militia and Indian allies. Fol- Amhersts, Bragg's, Lascelle's, Grenadiers, Scotch Hlghlanders and royal Americans Sir Guy Carleton, too, will be there with the principal officers and defenders of Quebec in 1775. This will take place to- morrow at o'clock. Three thousand will take part in the parade.
 This afternoon at o'clock the Prince of Wales and his taff will land. Before landing, however, he will receive, on board the Indomtabe, Vice President Fair banks, who represents the United States at the ceremonies. For week the festiv- ities will continue, including receptions in honor of the Prince. band concerts, balls, and fetes on every day. The celebration will be at an end next Thursday.
 The hospitality of Quebec is said to be taxed to the utmost to entertain the large number of guests who number 100, 600, or more than the population of the city itself.
