The society dramatic event of this
week will be the appearance of the
i'lustrious tTagedian, Frederick
Wardc, in a big scenic revival of
Shakespcares popular tragedy as

The Blue Mouse.
The Blue Mouse at the opera
house Friday evening scored de-
cded hit and was the merriest COM
edy we have seen for many days.
The plot of the story concerns an
actress who has been engaged at
SALARY of $4,000 a month to init vii
the railroad president, by an en-
ploye, who desires to be made diyi-
sion superintendent and as whose
wife she is posing
Grace Merritt as the Blue Mouse
is as charming little woman as
you seldom see and wears a num-
ber of very Stunning gowns-eX- F.
tremely hobbled-and all of the |
same exquisite shade of b,ue.
When she declares I'm just hun
cry for 4 little afectionate atten- |
tion,' the audience can quite forgive |
the flirtatious married men of the .
play. 1t all comes about over the
Temperament" of the Blue Mouse,
who when she feels sympathetic
cant help being friendly
The funny situations in the play
fairly crowd each other and you
laugh and laugh and laugh from the
very first act to the last lines
of the last act, waen you get
ready to leave after hearing the last
declaration of the B.ue Mouse We'll.
| just cant hep my temperament"
Lewellyn, by William Taylor, was
played so perfectly that he really
seemed to live the part.
His applause of last evening quite
surpassed the general lethargic APP
plause with which the Ardmore peo-
pie often greet a particularly fine
bit of acting.
He shared the honors with Miss
Merritt
Mrs. Lewellyn by linda Palmer,
Mrs. Rollett by Mabel Disney, Wal
lus by JOHN E. Hynes and Phillip
Scarsdale by Mendelssohn were mi
nor parts played most acceptaby
and supported the principals in
most praiseworthy manner
Augustus Toilet by Guy D'Ennery
was splendidly portrayed and his
complications with Miss Merritt kept
the audience in continued uproar
of laughter
The production was staged with
that attention to minute details that
marks good first class attraction.
The Staging and costuming was in
perfect harmony with the pot and
the whole cast has been selected
with a care that has admitted no
weak spots.
