matinee today, and has selected Tor the
opening the favorite among all his plays
and one that has made him Famous, Inc
Lieutenant and the Cowboy" great play
of western life in Colorado, The story
Of the play is one of absorbing heart in
terest, and one that will forever live as
long as we live to love. At Fort Garland
about twelve years ago, General F'aulk-
ner was in charge Of the fort, and with
his son, Lieutenant Faulkner, and Lieu
tenant Corbin. Miss Faulkner, coming
from New York on visit, is held up while
travelling in a stage coach. She recognizes
one of the highwaymen as Bud IarraDee,
the big-hearted bronco buster Of the fort,
and she later recognizes him when ne IS
brought before her father, but, becoming
in love with him, she denies at the crit
zeal moment, and says, He Is not the
man" Through arrangement made by the
parents Of Miss Faulkner, she IS sup
posed to wed Litutenant Corbsn, but on
the eve of the marriage, Lieutenant
Faulkner learns that Corbin has wife in
Denver, and to verify this long and
hazardous ride must be made. Bud Lar
abee offers TO make the ride and to place
he telegram in proper hands. Corbtn
earns hts known perfidy, and in his anX-
ETY. to intercept the telegram, cuts the
ride belonging 70 Larabee, which would
ave ended OlSaStrOuSly ndQ not the H.

Young Faulkner has been intrusted with
money for the payroll, but falls into bad
hands and loses the money at gambling,
and in order to get back enough money to
replace the amount he lost he becomes
one of the party to the hOldup, Failing
to get the needed amount by means of
the hOlduD, the big-hearted Larabee loans
him the money. He takes It, and on his
way 10 pay off he meets Corbin, who ac-
cuses him Of being an accomplice to the
hOldup. Faulkner tries to kin COrbin, but
is himself seriously wounded. At this mo-
ment, General Faulkner comes upon the
scene and is on the point of breaking
into the room where his son is when Lar
abee steps out and surrenders as thu
intruder through the lines. and thus thu
young Faulkner is saved. The settings OF

BUNGALOW THEATRE.

Commencing Sunday night, February
70, at the Bungalow. Willard Mack
Maude Leone and their company pre-
sent William Gillette's comedy, BE
cause She Loved Him So" and as Mr.
Mack returns to the cast it was thought
better, in his weakened condition, for
him to open in part which he was SO
thoroughly familiar. Miss Leone has
also played in the part a role
which she very much liked, SC
the production of "All of a Sud
den Peggy" will be postponed one
week. The two leading parts assumed
by Mr.. Mack and Miss Leone are well
suited to them, and as the play is from
the hands of one of the great play
rights the production should be one OF
the best. Mr.. Mack again assumes
control of productions, thus lifting the
burden from the plucky shoulders OF
Miss Leone, who has made a game
fight to keep up the business and sue
coed. The others OF the cast are well
cared for, and Mr.. AlCine, who has
been playing Mr.. Mack's parts, takes q

COMING TO COLONIAL

The cancellation of Babes in ToyIand"
throws the Colonial in darkness this
week, but II will open next Sunday with
one or the best plays to be seen here
this season. Max Figman in Mary Jane
IA VIII play week S engagement start
ing Sunday, February q. The san Fran
cisco Call gave the following laudatory
criticism Of his performance:
1t is the habit of comedians to prove
their 1oVial powers by turning to the
serious to justify the laughs they have
won by the tears that they can also
move. We never are really certain that
man is legitimately entitled to a place
IN the front rank of comedians until he
has quit his fooIing' long enough to re-
verse our wrinkles from smiling TO sad.
Max Figman is known to us as the
careless, inpertlnent, graceful yet grace
less light comedian. He surprised US in
The Man on the Box at the American
theatre two years ago, and we liked his
laughing talents so we'll that a return
engagement was made to fill our need.
He carried a somewhat uncertain play,
The Substitute to later success here by
his light, airy gifts Of funning, and he
returned yesterday to San Francisco to
prove we were right in our approval of
him. AS a comedian ne reappeared, but
with minor cadence to all his presenta-
tons.
"Figman was not all smiles as Hiram
Perkins in Mary James Pa at the Savoy
yesterday, but touched our hearts, lightly
ever so lightly, as a comedian should,
but surely, by a command over those emo
lions which nOTmality understands. These
transitions from gay TO grave were ac-
complshed subtly, unostentationsly, but
with certainty; they were like the shad-
Ows on the hillside when a cloud floats
by overhead, making Just enough of
darkness to let US know the sun shines.
Chatting, cynical and brilliant, Fig
man, as Hiram Perkins, drifts into the
first act: the realities Of life are nothing
to him. He is the spectator, and the
world is his play. By degrees, as nicely
shaded as a perfect crescendO in Mozart's
music, the man IN him awakens. and the
fatherhood, too. You see the transition
going on before your eyes, until the fam
lily ne had deserted when he himself was

FAMOUS ACTRESSES

Sarah Bernhard is planning her fare
Well tour OF this country, which she will
PROBABLY make next season. Fresh from
her riumphs in her impersonation of Joan
or Arc, the famous tragedienne, il is now
reported, is about to invade the London
music hall, being booked to make her de-
but on the variety stage at the Coliseum.
Madame Bernhardt made her first ap-
pearance on the stage in 1862. At her
own theatre in Paris, bearing her name,
she has produced many famous plays and
made some of her greatest successes.
Madame Bernhard has been twice nomi-
mated for the Legion of Honor but for
reasons Of red tape" the well deserved
distinction has so far been withheld.
The great Italian actress, Eleanora Duse,
is to produce shortly a prisoners play.
1t is by Casale, who since August, 1906,
has been lying in prison at Perugia
four years since he confessed his guilt
In a heated alteration over the trial Of
an Italian lieutenant named Modugno-
a cause Celebre-Casale stabbed to death
one of the principal barrlsters who has
been bTiefed for the prosecution.
Another interesting bit of news is that
GenevIeve ViX of TIE Opera Comique,
Paris, has gone to Nice for two months
to create the title role in a new opera,
La Glu," after which she will return to
the Opera COmique. 1t is to be hoped that
this great artist will be persuaded to visit
this country where her rendering Of such
roles at Tosca, ManOn, Carmen and Mar
gueTite would be keenly appreciated.
Madame Rejane, another distinguished
Partisan actress, has just achieved a
great success at Theatre Rejane in Queen
MargOt," a fOur-act play by Emile Moreau
and Oh. Clairville.

school has been in operation at the Cen
trail Christian church for several years,
and the work in the hands Of c.. E.
Marks, Mr.. and Mrs. H Lang, Mr.. Page

interest.
A number of the boys have become
Christians and are planning to help others
Of their race. They are much interested
in the Sunday school hymns and asked
that one might be written especially for
them. A woman wrote the song and they
were asked to give it a name. The mu-
sic Of this country, SO unlike that Of
Japan, is difficult for them, so the song
was set to a tune with which they We're
all familiar and which they like. They
are now learning the words and say they
intend to send 1t to Japanese missions

As many Of these young men get very
homesick, the song appeals strongly to
them, for the first verse is a little word

with which they are quite familiar from

But Not Until Maynard Was Nearly
Dead From Terror.
Regnier, the French satirist of the
reign of Louis Kill. forced a quarrel
upon the poet Maynard. who was al
most Quakerish in his love of peace.
Maynard could not we'll avoid the ap-
pearance of taking up the quarrel. but
Immediately after the preliminaries
sought out his patron. Comte de Cler-
mont-Lodeve. and begged him to sur
prise the party at the dueling ground
and break up the affair. The count
promised. and Maynard went away
with a lighter heart. But his patron,
wanting some amusement. fastened to
the field and concealed himself in the
shrubbery before the party arrived.
Maynard went through the first stages
of preparation very well, but grew
more and more nervous as time passed
and the count did not appear. Then
he began to play for delay. First he
was sure that his sword was shorter
than bis adversary's. necessitating a
slow and technical measurement. Next
his boots hurt him. and he had long,
hard struggle to get them off his feet.
At last. after the cold perspiration had
begun to drip from his brow and he
was more dead than alive, his pro-
tector emerged suddenly from the
bushes and interfered. A peace was
soon patched up. Maynard declaring
that If he had said anything disagree
able about ReGnier he had not intend
ed to do so and Regnier accepting this
as balm for his wounded feelings. AS
Maynard threw down his sword at the
close of the parley and reached for his
hat he was heard to murmur, ''Anoth-
er time | shall trust to my own wits
to pull me out of scrape. for if had
depended on the count | might have
