LOUISE ROYCE, AT THE BURBANK

Like It," In the evening "A Mid
summer Nights Dream" will be given.
The afternoon performance will be
given to the accompaniment of Bee
thoven's sixth symphony, known as
THE Pastoral" "A Midsummer
Nights Dream" will be repeated Sat-
urday afternoon, and Twelfth Night"
will finish the week Saturday evening.
Members of the shrine will act as ush-
ers, under the direction of Ben Powell.
BELASCO-George Broadhurst's play,
1.-THE Dollar Mark" as given at the
Belasco theater, continues to be the
sensation of the theatrical year, and
instead of disseminating the play to-
morrow, as was the intention of the
Belasco management the demand for
seats is so great and so many people
have been unable to see this big play,
that the management has very wisely
determined to keep 1t on for another
week. This will necessitate another
postponement of the presentation of
Miss Hobbs" with Florence Reed the
new Belasco leading lady, in the chief
role.

performance six weeks ago, has accom-

This year, under the direction OF u.
]. C. Spruance, potentate of AL Maial-
kah temple, the Shriners have changed
from comedy into something worth
while, and instead of Shrine mlnstrels
or a Shrine circus have secured the
greatest aggregation of artistic merit
travelling in America: the blending
of Shakespeares romance, Tragedy,
comedy and fantasy with delightful
music given under tn edireetion OF Ben
Greet. the Ben Greet players, the pest
known of all the Shakespearean roper
toire companies, and the Russian SYM
phony orchestra of New York city, with
Modest Altschuler as conductor.
This is an aggregation whose work
has won the patronage and admiration
of theatergoers in the big cities of the
east.
The visit of either organization would
be of sufficient Importance to draw
large house in any city of the country,
but this combination of music and
drama is so unusual that it appeals to
lovers of both. The Shriners offer
these visions of fairyland, conceived
by Shakespeare genius and inspired
by the music of Mendelssohn and Bee
thoven, seconded by Tschaikowsky and
Sir Arthur Sullivan's music for a series
of productions to be given for an en-
tire week, beginning at the Auditorium
theater tomorrow might.

that it is nothing but curiosity that has
made the public go to see Miss Russeil
in this play. But curiosity is such a
curious thing. Three years ago MISS
Russell made her first appearance IN
songless comedy in 'Barbara's Mil
lions and the public was so curious
to see her that the play was withdrawn
in G. few weeks. Then The Butterfly
was produced. Again the public mani
tested such an overwhelming curiosity
that the play was continued for only
part of a season. The next season
'Wildfire' was presented, and owing
to some curious phenomenon the atore-
said curiosity, between the months OF
June and September, had increased
more than 200 per cent and has con-
tinued to increase for the past two
years in such a degree that with the
exception of Warfield more people have
paid to see Miss Russell than to see
any star on the-American stage this
season.
THE managers of Miss Russell
foolish men!-have persisted in saying
that the play was responsible for the
above increase in the receipts, but you
know and | know that the play had
nothing whatever to do with 1t. Curl
osity to see Miss Russell had suddenly
increased, that's all. / have never been
able to figure out, however. why 1t in
creased, and am very anxious to do so.
Can you help me?.

The English girl, on the contrary,
goes into this sort of thing as bust
ness There are not so many "hes"
over there, to begin with, and more
girls have to make a living. Keener
competition makes for better work;
only the best survive, and the result
is splendid training and absolute per-
lection before the public sees them.

The scenic equipment is said to be

The spring season of musical comedy
at the Majestic theater will open next
Sunday when Kolb and Dill, "the Web
Der and Fields of the West" will begin
their engagement at that house, pre-
senting 1.-THE Politicians" as their first
bill. 1.-The Politicians" novelty so

municipalities, and would seem to be
particularly appropriate just at. this
time when Los Angeles municipal afT
fairs are in so sadly muddled condi-
ton
Neither the attenuated Kolb nor his
partner with the pickle name require
any introduction to local audiences.
The firm probably has been responsible
for more good Los Angeles laughs than
any other two men who ever appeared
here. In fact, Kolb and Dill are almost
a Los Angeles institution. This city
gave them ready recognition and gave
them. too, the comedy with which they
made their hit in New York, Lone
some Town." which, though it was writ
ten by a San Franciscan, the late Jud-
son Brussie has its scenes located in
Watts"
The comedians are said to be sur
rounded this year by the best company
ever assembled in their support, In

ty girls. Miss Elise Schuyler, popular
locally through her association with the
old Gaiety company and her appear
ances at the local Orpheum, has been
with them in the north. and probably

company

give the comedians a full week to pre-
pare for their Los Angeles opening.
George Broadhurst goes into an in
teresting discussion of the merits, or
dement's, of "Wildfre," in reply to a
writer of a comment column in local
newspaper, in which the latter declares
that the Broadhurst comedy is the
worst play ever written. Mr. Broad
hurst seems to have the nub end of the
argument. The letter follows:
My Dear Sir--I concur absolutely IN
your opinion of 'Wildfre' ah expressed
in your column on Sunday last. You
cannot possibly write anything worse
about it than the things / think.
For the past two seasons, however,
much to my annoyance, the press of the
country from New York to San Fran
cisco and from st. Louis to New Or
leans has been praising 'Wildfire' and
the public has been fiocking to see 1T.
