A FAMOUS POEM.
Foty Years Ago.

I've wandered tO the village Tom.

But none were lett 10 gn,ct me, Tom,
And few Were LEFT To- know,
Who plsyd with us upon tlmt green
just forty years ago
The grass was Just as green, Tom,
Baretooted boys at play
We're sporting, Just as we did then
with spirits lust as gay;
But the master sleeps upon the hin
Which, coated DER with snow,
Afforded MS r Sliding place.
Some forty years ago
The old scho1l-house is altcrd some,
The benches are replaced
BY new ones worry like the same
our ,lack-knlYes had doiaced
But the same old bricks ATE In the wall.
Aud the bell swings To and fro.
lts music lust the same dear rom.
Twas forty years ago
The boys were playing some old game
Beneath that same old tree;

You've played the same with me

The loser had task to do
There forty years ago
The rivers running lust MS stin
The willows ON It's side
Are larger than they were, Tom
The stream appears less wide.

Columbia.

"The Travelling Salesman" that mirth-
provoking comedy by James Forbes, pre-
sented by the original cast of players in
the plays long runs in New York and
Chicago, will be the attraction tomorrow
evening at the Columbia Theater. The
return of this comedy should prove a
pleasing event, with Frank j. Mcintyre in
the title role. In addition there is Miss
Gertrude Coghlan, daughter of the late
Charles Coghlan and niece OF the infm-
liable Rose, to charm the Audience with
her impersonation of Beth Elliott, the
pretty telegraph operator.
The story of the play is simple. A
group Of commercial travellers find them
selves caught on Christmas day in a one
horse town. Bob Blake, played by Mr..
Mcintyre, succumbs at once to the charm
of Beth Elliott. Another drummer and
Blake's employer learn that Beths APP
parently worthless land, which is to be
sold for taxes. is of real worth to a new
and scheme to defraud her of
the property. Blake's efforts to save her
from the schemers result in unlocked for
which are. of course, ulti-
mately Strengthened out to every ones

two schemers. -

The actress laughed.
Thank YOU" she said. That is what
I am striving for. If l can touch their
emotions enough to bring the tears l am
assured Of success for my play. Women
like to cry. If we are suffering for an
other, even though that other be stage
heroine. We are forgetting our own trou-
bles for the time being; and to be able to
cause one to forget troubles Is great
thing to do After all. laughter is very
akin to tears. and the more tears shed
during the performance of my play the

close to the hearts of the people, touching

OSCAR STRAUS.-That there was any
delay at all after George Bernard Shaw's
famous satire Arms and the Man nrst
appeared in book form, before German
librettists developed it for the light opera
stage, seems to have been due to the IDEA
that Shaw himself might accomplish the
work at some time As usual SHAW gave
but a grudgipg permission TO have ms
book adapted by Bernauer ana JACOBSON
Of Vienna. but when he heard the music
Straus had written for II and the adapta-
ton made by Stanislaus STANCE he went
so far as to give it his Endorsement TOT
the London production. Born IN lo.o,
Straus had splendid opportunities fer
musical education and devoted himself
closely to his study.
From 1895 to 1910 he was conductor OF
various orchestras at Bruen, ISpltz'
MainZ and Berlin. He then became lead
er of the Buntes Theater, where vaude-
willie of the highest type was produced,
and here he apparently reveled In his
work. his talent for parody often yerging
on the grotesque. With other works. he
wrote DER Schwartzer Man." an opera;
.'Columbine" and series or musicai
travesties on the German sagesx among
them being Der Lustigen NiebeNungen'
and "Hugdietrichs Brautfahrt. Then
came THE Waltz Dream.
In THE Chocolate Soldier Straus Is
considered to have reached tAe highest
point of his career The big waltz theme
for the finale might have descended
straight from the elder strauss ana the
good grandfather of waitzes. The Blue
Danube"

Academy.

A play which is not only pure in senti-
ment, but good in construction and char
acterization beyond its class. is promised
at the Academy this week, when Miss
Poynter will be seen in THE Little Girl
That He Forgot" The piece Is in four
acts, based on conditions as they are
actually known in the Missouri swamps
The work of preparing 1t for the stage is
to be credited to the star herself. The
opening act shows June Holly, q
young girl Of sixteen. her parents dead,
and living with her grandmother, wom-
an whose life has been one of bitterest
toll and privation, and an uncle, who has
remained single to give June and her lit
tie brother and sister home. There are
no lost wills. nor stolen diamonds, but
a powerful heart story of error, expia-
tion and forgiveness. Miss Poynter's
company includes players whose com
potency has long since placed them on
the list Of recognized artists.

Among the men are George Tallman. the
original Alexius In this country, who
sang the role 300 nights in New York;
Francis ]. Boyle, who was also with the
original organization, and who is ac-
counted one Of the greatest buffo-bassoa
in America. Burrell Barbaretto plays
the title role. and George O'Donnell plays
Popoff, the bluff old colonel.
It will be seen from this array OF
talent that the Whitney Opera Company
is really a grand opera organization. and
this is made all the moro clear from the
fact that for its presentation here THE

large orchestra as it had during its run
