COIumbia-''The Man Of the Hour"
The Columbia Theater will offer as its
attraction the week beginning tomorrow
night, with usual matinees. the engage
ment Of William A. Brady and Joseph r.
Grismer's successful American play. ''Fhe
Man of the Hour" by George Broad
hurst. 1.-The Man of the Hour" occupies
a field entirely its own, and its popularity
is due TO real merit. as the playwright
has refrained from resortlng to any OF
the so-called sensationalism upon which
so frequently authors depend for tenn
pOrary notoriety. The Man of the Hour
tells a story that Is as instructive and
entertaining as it is fascinating. Because
1t depicts life as 1t exists In American
cities, the plot is readily understood and
enjoyed. while the delightful love story
adds interest. and the clean
cut comedy and brilliant satire combine
to build up play that Is worth seeing.
The usual carefully selected cast Of nota-
BILE players common to the William A.
Brady and Joseph R. Grismer attractions
will be seen this season.

tude OF things, however, which Peter
can do, and which are incorporated IN
his wonderful performance at Chase s.
Peter will positively appear at every per-
