MORE TALK OF NEW THEATRE.

A new Richmond, or rather two of them,
have entered the theatrical field in Salt
Lake. The men in question are Fred
Belasco and Oliver MoroscO, two rival
theatrical magnates of the coast who
have buried the Ratchet and formed a
partnership. Their plan is to include Salt
Lake in a string of western cities in which
they are to establish real stock COM
panies, not limitations. The other cities
in the circuit are Chicago, Portland, Seat
tie, Kansas City and Denver.
For the past twelve years Mr.. BelascO
and Mr.. MOrOsco have been friendly rivals
in the western field, but recognizing the
fact that only by working together could
they carry out the hopes which both cher
ished of seeing a well-defined western
theatrical organization, they have com
bined their interests and have in cOntem-
platiOn a circuit Of theatres extending
from Chicago to the Pacific Coast.
Mr.. Belasco is owner of the AlcaZar the
atre, San Francisco, and has already COM
pleted plans for the erection Of his new
theatre, the Belasco, in the same city. Mr..
MorOscO is lessee and manager Of the Bur
bank and Majestic theatres, Los Angeles.
These theatres, with the exception of the
Majestic, which is devoted to Klaw and
Erlanger attractions, together with new
houses which they hope to secure, will be
devoted to stock work.

GIN OLD KENTUCKY"

'In Old Kentucky" opening at the Salt
Lake theatre last night, is just what it is
intended to be, a well staged melodrama
of the old south ''befo' de wah," and no
more. 1t is well staged at that, and
when the heroine rides queen Bess" to
victory and saves home and fortune for
the man she loves, the realism is made
perfect by a flashing finish before a
packed grandstand.
Clever staging of the horse race scene
makes the play stand ahead of all others
of its class. With Kentucky colonel
who has the race dope at his finger tips
describing the race in which Queen
Bess" runs for love as well as fortune,
from a tree top on the outside of the
race track fence, and prim Kentucky
dame losing herself IN the excitement or
the moment to the extent of shining
up" the tree beside him, the audience
is given all the real thrill before the final
wind-up. Before there is opportunity to
lose the enthusiasm gathered from the
description the curtain swings UP on the
wire finish" and six horses gallOp under
the wire with black Queen BeSs' lead
ing to the post.
The plot gives opportunity for the de-
velOpment of a mountain feud, which is
dropped into the heart OF the blue grass
region and ends fittingly with the death
of the villain. In this comes the ori-
umDh of a true WOmans heart over the
artificial refinement of a butterfly of
fashion The rescue Of Queen Bess'
from a burning stable by single noun
tain girl who 'jes loves hosses," is an
other of the good scenes ana the staging
makes it realistic.
Added to the play, which carries the
characteristic plot of melodrama a trifle
better enacted than the ordinary, are de-
lightfully entertaining bits furnished by
genuine southern pickaninnies. The pad
dock scene is enlivened by their byplay
sketches and they furnish really good
music with a sixteen-piece brass band.
Their dancing and singing Ightens the
niCfTgrn and furnishes ntPaSfnr feature
we'll worthy of the repeated encores it
receives
While the serious drama has become a
trifle too marked to arouse too great en-
thusiasm, il can be well said of the en-
tire piece, that it carries splendid vein
of cOmedy-doesn't drag enough to be
wearisome at any stage and creates inters
est in spite Of its stereOtyped features.
The situations are cleverly worked up and
the climax is the usual live happily ever
afterward."

CONCERT AT sHUBERT THEATRE,

At the Shubert theatre last evening,
Miss Flora Wilson was heard in concert,
assisted by Karl Klein, viOlinist, and
Harold Osborn Smith, pianist. 4 pro-
gram of varied and difficult music was
given which showed the artists to good
advantage and brought out the admirable
technique in which they are proficient.
Miss Wilson's voice is high soprano,
Of good range, but purest in it's upper
notes. She shows careful training. Her
songs included the well-knOWn waltz
song, Romeo and Juliet" of GounOd,
and the "ChansOn d'Amour," with violin
obigatO. Of Holman. In part two she
was heard in group on English songs,
those which were best liked being the
old-time fayorites, robin Adair" and
"Edinborough Town" The great aria
"Ah fors lui," from La TFaviata,"
was the principal song of the evening,
and here Miss Wilson was heard to good
advantage, especially in the allegro
Sempre liberia degg TO-" It is said that
it is in the role Of ViOletta of this opera
that Miss Wilson will make her debut at
the Metropolitan opera house in New
York when her concert tour is ended.
Harold Osborn Smith, the pianist rem
dered two difficult numbers which were
enthusiastically received. The Caprice
EspagnOle" of MOszkOWsh has not been
done better in this city. As accompanist,
Mr.. Smiths work is rarely sympathetic
ana careful. and much of the evenings
pleasure was due to the piano and occa-
sional violin accompaniment of the
songs.
Karl Klein, violinist, was heard in four
numbers that admirably exhibited the
versatile talents of the artist. His play
ing of the unusual Hungarian Rhapsody
OF Hubay was a remarkable perfOr-
nance and won him immediate favor, but
1t was the "JOta Navarro" that was most
enthusiastically received. He responded
to the applause with a charming bit of
melody. Miss Wilson gave as an encore
Winds That Blow From the South"
The program as given was not the one
originally announced. Several English

perhaps not too much to say that of all
the plays with musical trimmings given
over to the American stage by young Mr..

Explanation by the Secretary.

IF the secretary seeks advice from
individual officers in whom he has con-
hdence, but who have no definite rela-
ton to the organization of the navy de-
partment," said Meyer today, in ex-
planning his reforms, The gets advice
that may be good but that is not re-
sponsible. Such recourse to individuals,
moreover, gives no assurance of con-
tinuity of policy, nor of responsibility.
According to the Meyer plan, the
board of construction becomes useless
and, therefore, will be abolished.
This board was created principally
to supervise ship designing and to de-
eide questions in dispute between the
bureaus when their duties overlapped,
or when one wished to obtain more
space or weight for its purposes in
ship design.
Under the new plan the operating
branch, which deals directly with the
military use of the fleet, will originate
military features of a new construc-
tion in consultation with the general
board of which the new aide for opera
lions win be member. Other officers
also will be called in for advice and
criticism, both before and after the
sketch plans have been prepared by
the technical bureaus.
Will Get the Best Advice.
These officers will be selected be-
cause of pronounced success in ord
nance, engineering or torpedo work.
The bureaus will be called upon finally
TO prepare the actual plans and will
be responsible for their correctness.
With the growth of the business of
the department Secretary Meyer found
that duties similar TO those of the
equipment bureau were performed by
the bureau of supplies and accounts
construction and repair, and by steam
engineering. In this connection it is
to be noted Rear Admiral w. S. Cowles
brOther-in-law of Former President
Roosevelt, is now the head of the bu-
reau.
At the navy yards Mr. Meyer has de-
cided TO divide the single manufactur-
ing department established by Mr..
Newberry into two divisions one of
machinery and the other of hulls-"ac-
cording to the general practice In ship
building establishments in this country,
and with the naval dock yards of Eng
land and Germany" Commandments and
captains at the yards will be kept there
long enough to insure continuity of
policy, and commandants will be the
only repres entatives Of the department
at the yards.
Change of Newberry Plan.
The Newberry plan gave the senior
naval constructor at the yards power
that Secretary Meyer lodges with the
commandant.
Inefficient work, or performance, or
irregularities under the different bu-
reaus, Secretary Meyer found, has been
inspected usually by officers of those
bureaus reporting directly to them. No
machinery has existed by which indie
pendent Inspections of ships, shore sta
tons and technical matters could be
had That Mr.. Meyer will provide by
his new division of inspection.
Distinguishing the bureau of yards
and docks, the marine corps and GER
tain other branches of the department
not logically included in any one of
the four divisions of duties, will be
placed under the assistant secretary,
The Salt Lake herald-Republican. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1909-1918, 1909-11-30

the Swift board to consider reports Of
the other board and to make recon-
menGations for the Improvement Of
business methods of the department.
With these reports as a basis. Secre-
tary Meyer has evolved his plan of re-
form.
Inc secretary found that the bu-
reauS of the department were independ-
ent of one another, and that he must
decide all difficulties between them.
The aides are to advise him on these
