| THE Passing of the Third Floor Back"
which will be presented at the Belasco
next week for four nights and Wednes-
day matinee. New York crowded to the
Maxine Elliott Theater for seven months
to witness this symbolic drama, and on
its return to Broadway every seat was
occupied during this second run.
Forbes-Robertson, who stars in the
piece, is one OF the greatest actors who
treads the boards to-day, possessing a
personality the like of which is scarcely
exampled, while the culture and beautI-
full modulatIon of his voice is a thing to
be remembered with delight. AS the
"Passer-By' he gives a performance
which is artistic to a degree, and which
dominates the feelings long after one has
left the theater. He appeals to the bet
ter nature of his fellow-guests in the
lodging-house to which he comes to stay.
And they are motley lot. One of the
outstanding characters Is o lady OF forty,
painted like a girl half that age. Each
one Is a life-drawn sketch. Crowded

The pithecanthropoid has been exposed.
He's Alfred the Great, the first genuine
ape-man to be booked for a Washington
theater. and he will appear Text week
at the Casino. Washington has been en-
tertained by all manner of educated
monkeys and babboOns, but in Alfred this
mans town will see its first genuine
ape-man. He will perform feats and do
stunts that have been attempted by
others of his near-kind. but he will go
them considerably better and present a
line Of feats that no other animal human
has undertaken in public, at least
Considerable interest has been aroused
in the world pithecanthropoid, which
represents the type of ape-man that AL
fred embodies. Alfred will live at a
hotel. he will have an automobile for
his travels through town. he will be
guest at leading cafes for his meals. he
will visit the schools and the Commits
soners, he will give a reception at his
hotel and also at the theater, and he
will figure in a number OF outdoor stunts
that will keep the newspaper reporters
busy, according to all accounts. In short
Alfred is due to go some.
On the bill also will be Alf Ripon, the
Scotch ventriloquist; Edgar Berger. the
novelty equilibrist; That Kid. with his

Chase's next week will exhibit another
star-studded link in the ''unbrOken
chain" which It has already announced
for some time to come: the brightest gem
in the present array being, as one critic
put It, the Incompatible unrivaled, idol
ized. and supreme" Mabel Hite, the peer
less arChcOmedienne, who is appearing
by permission OF Liebler & Co, to whom
she is under contract for a term Of years.
Miss Hite last starred in "A Certain
Party" and with many other musical
comedy successes, most of which owed
their prosperity solely to the astuteness
OF their managers in engaging Miss Hite,
than whom there IS no more popular or
clever comedienne anywhere in the
world to-day
She devises her own acts and writes
the prettiest and merriest Of her catchy
songs. And her costumes are things that
are said to give her feminine auditors
pangs Of friendly envy. For her present
return to polite vaudeville Miss Hite has
a series of four character songs. each
with an appropriate and handsome
change OF costume, and enough encore
numbers TO make certain a stay Of half
an hour or more before her audience. Her
principal numbers, sung as only she can
sing them, are You Are Going to Lose
Your Husband If You Do Il Really
Hate to Talk About Myself" "Billy's
Very Good to Me-" and Get a Girl from
the Emerald Isle" An applauded feature
is the Interpolation of animated pictures
OF Miss Hite in the various roles which
have contributed to her fame, and also OF
Mike Donlin and Rube Marquard as they
appeared when with her in vaudeville.

LABOR LEADERS TO
 APPEAR IN COURT
GOMPERS, MITCHELL AND MOR- BISON SUMMONED TO APPEAR
 BEFORE JUSTICE WRIGHT.
Apology Is Susgested-Lawyers' Com mittee Proposes Plan to Columbia
 Supreme Court.

Washington. President Sanuei Gompers Vice President John Mitch ell and Secretary Frank Morrison of the American Federation of Labor, under rules issued by Justice Daniel T. Wright of the District of Columbia supreme court, were cited to appear Monday, July 17, and show cause why they should not be punished for contempt of court.
 The courts action followed the fiji ing of the report of a committee of lawyers appointed to investigate the charge that an injunction granted by the court in favor of the Bucks Stove X Range Company of St. Louis had been violated. In case the labor lead CTS are adiudged guilty, it is an open question whether the court will inn pose a jail sentence.
 The committees report submits that there is reasonable cause to charge each of these parties with will full defiance of the orders of the court
 However, it is suggested that the la abor leaders acted under the belief that they were within their constitu- tional right, and the committees vir- tually recommends that due apologies and assurances of future submission, if they be forthcoming, settle the matter.
 Mir. Gompers is dealt with as the chief offender, p Of the 2 typawrit- ten pages of the report being devoted to him.
 The contempt proceedings against the labor leaders recently were passed upon by the United States supreme court, which set aside jail sentences heretofore imposed by Justice Wright. In dismissing the former proceeding. the supreme court gave to the dis trict court a right to reopen the case in the event any contempt of the court itself or its orders should b. found. Inasmuch as the stove com pany and the American Federation of Labor had adjusted their differences, 1t was not supposed the matter would be pursued further, but the day fol lowing the decision Justice Wright appointed a committee of three law yers to inquire into all the circum- stances of the case to determine whether or not there had been q con- tempt of court itself.
 It is probable the cases will not be heard before fall in the event another trial becomes necessary,
