sergeant Kitty which is remem-
bered by visitors to Olympic Park as
cne of the most enjoyable offerings Of
the Aborn Comic Opera Company's
season there last summer, Will again
be revived by that popular organiza-
ton for the ten performances starting
next Monday night, with the complete
Virginia Earle production of brilliant
and splendid scenic accoutre-
ments.
This charming comic opera, the
libretto of which is by R. ii. Burnside
and the music by A. Baldwin Sloane,
had a long run at Days Theatre. New
York, q few years ago. and Messrs
Aborn were the first TO present 1t at
surnmer prices.
The title role will be in the capable
hands of Edith Bradford. nj of the
most pronounced favorites the Aborns
have ever introduced to Newark, who
stays over from the "Erminie" week.
The part of winsome Kitty Latour,
who DISCUSSES herself as a sergeant
of Hussars, is most happily suited TO
Miss Bradford's personality, and one
OF the most appropriate assignments
she has ever been given at Olympic
Park.
James McElhern, who delighted the
Aborn clientele last summer in this
opera. will again have the leading
comedy character iof Captain JON
Quinere. William Sohuster will appear
again as the erusty old General Du-
bois; Charles H. Bowers, Thomas S.
Van and Hattie Arnold will reappear
in the same parts they had a year ago.
William G. Stewart has been especial
" engaged as Lucien Valliere. Sabery

Leecain the Ninon
Larger crowds than ever are being
attracted by the free vaudeville show
on the elevated outdoor stage. where
the bill is changed every week. Herman
H. A. Schmidt. the proprietor of
Olympic Park, has installed a new
lighting and cheching system at the
garage, which has increased h facili-
ties for accommodating the many au-
tomobile parties.

lariat and rope to gain the favor of the
cowgirl.
The latter, who is unable to make a
choice, finally mounts to her saddle
with the promise that she will marry
the first one that catches her. Then
follows the thrilling chase on horse
back. The first cowpuncher to reach
her side, lifts her from her saddle to
his horse while going at full speed.
This is one of the most thrilling parts
of the performance as the least slip
would mean serious injury and prob
able death to the girl.
There will be a number of other new
features introduced during the week,
including the quadrille on horseback
and a series of Hat races between the
various performers. At the earnest
request of a number of patrons of the
park the reproduction of Frederick
R~emington's famous painting, The
Fight over the Lone Water Hole, ,
and the thrilling chariot race taken
from "Ben-Hur'' will be repeated.
