AL /. WILSON WILL
BE FIRST STAR Of .
BELASCC SEASON
Dialect Comedian Will Be
Seen in a German Prince"
Next Week.

Al H. Wilson. the German dialect
comedian. who will inaugurate the reg
ular season at the Belasco Theater
next week, as the central character in
his latest play, "A German Prince" has
a clientele throughout the country that
equals the proportions of that enjoyed
by such noted stars as J. X. Emmett
and Joseph Murphy. 1t is doubtful II
his lullabies are unknown to any little
tot who has reached the age Of under
standing. while his love songs and
yodels still possess the charm which
first brought him to the notice Of the
atergoers.
The story Of "A German Prince" con-
tains a pretty love romance with the
scenes laid along the banks Of the river
Rhine and In the Austrian Tyrol. Mr..
Wilson's character is that Of an i'm
poverished German prince, reduced to
such financial straits that he finds It
necessary to assume a disguise and
apply for the position Of a guide to q
party of American tourists.
1t is In the character Of the guide
that he is heard merrily singing his
way among the mountains OF the Tyrol.
and the enjoyment of those who admire
the Wilson style Of songs will be ac-
centuated as they listen to his Won
derful voice when It breaks forth in the
delightful strains of Her Smile. -
