THE CLIMAX
Play Which Has Caused Sensation,
Coming.

gentleman knew whereof he spoke.
stars of the brightest ray have gone
down to failure simply because the
vehicle secured for them was weak.
Plays with casts entirely unknown to
fame have been huge successes solely
on account of the merits of the piece,
one of the most important eX-
amples of this fact is shown in the
case of "The Climax" a play which
has created a positive sensation on ac-
count of its purity and newness. ''The
Climax" is from the pen of an author,
Edward Locke. heretofore unknown,
and was presented by a company of
players only one of whom had ever
been heard of on THE Great White
Way" These facts, bearing out the
statement of the immortal Shake
speare, did not hinder the success of
the play. on the opening night, the
first performance was very lightly at

kept on swelling at rapid rate un-
til nightly the capacity of the theatre
at which the play appeared was test

THE Climax is now in its seventh
month at Weber's theatre in New
York and seats are still on sale for
weeks in advance and there are five
ompanies on tour, all as good as the
New York company. each doing the
same phenomenal business as the one
appearing in the Metropolis. This al.
one is a pretty good argument that
'the play is the thing" Other cases
of the same sort are cited in the case
of paid in Full" THE Man of The

have romped on to success withou
