night.
, Conan G Harris take pleasure in
announcing that this great musical
play is presented in this, its fourth
season, with the original cast. an en-
tire new scenic investiture, brand new
costumes and after a general overhaul
ing by the famous author himself
George NJ. Cohan.
Scott Welch, as kid Burns" who
modestly wears the weight of laurels
gathered in every big city in the
United States returns in the creation
he made famous and will be warmly
welcomed here both for his clever
ness and for the many warm friends
he has in this city.
Miss Frances Gordon, as Just
Plain Mary" presents one of the best
character impersonations known to
the American stage. The part calls
for versatility that is unique in its
variations. Mary, the housemaid, is
built upon incidents in the action of
the piece that give scope for dramatic
ability, appealing pathos, and require
at the same time that the actress
handling the part sing well. Miss
Gordon has filled every requirement.
She possesses beautiful singing
voice; has clear conception of Co
hans character and interprets it &C.
cordingly and in the dramatic and sad
moments, by turns, she lifts her audi
ences up to hysteria and again draws
tears from their hearts. The cast in
cludes: Scott WEIGH, Frances Cor.
don, Mary E. Cunard, Susan Chisnell,
Eugene MacGregor, James A. Davitt,
Harry Gwynette, James H. Manning
and twenty other artists of acknowl-
SuSSu dUlilly.
There are three acts, and the
scenes are laid in New Rochelle. The
first act shows the exterior of the
Castleton Mansion, the second act,
the interior, and the third act the rail
road station at New Rochelle
The book of this musical play is so
logically written, with so logical con-
clusion, that it does not depend on
scenery for its existence, but i'm
proves in value with age as does any
thing of literary merit. The slang of
Kid Burns is unique, but so much to
the point that the most hopelessly cru
dite can grasp it. And there is no
tediousness because every situation is
relieved by flashes of real wit and
chorus of beautiful girls dancing and
