TWO BIG ATTRACTIONS
 COMING TO THE BIJOU

At the Bijou the week of April thea tre-goers will have an opportunity or witnessing for the first time in this city at popular prices, interpreted by an all star cast Messrs. Stair & Havln's great production of The Wolff by Eugene Walter which scored an enormous sue cess at the Lyric theatre, New York, where 1t enjoyed a most prosperous run.
 "The Wolf' tells story Of q girl who was betrayed and sent to her death in the Hudson Bay country Her hail. brother seeks the man and finds him att tempting to lure another young girl to ruin It happens that the half-brother- loves the girl so he takes her, away, but the two rivals-the villain and the hero makes one of the strongest and most in teresting scenes ever witnessed on the American stage
 The two men meet in the dark and fight for the possession of the girl he audience hears the two men as they toss and punmel each other about the stage Finally there is a moan. and th> listeners know that death has come t' one of the fighters. But which one? The moon creeps up, and the victor strikes a match and holds it above his victims head. The piece will be pre- sented here with an all s.ar cast and the scenic environments precisely the same in every detail as those used In New Yor, and Chicago.
 "Rrewster's Milions." dramatization of George Barr McCutcheons entertalr- ing story, will be the attraction at the Biiou the week of April 10 Carl Ger ard will be seen in the title character of Brewster which he has played for up- wards ofS100 consecutive weeks, and the excellent cast Is practically the original. Grace Nile will be seen as Peggy Grey and the remaining long list of char acters will be played respectively by Nestor Lennon, Walter T. Fishter. Earl Chrstis, Richard Morgan. Den Wilkes. Howard l.. Dorsey Grace Nile, Louise Sanford. Marguerite Savin, Jane val lace and Gertrude Shanley and a score of others.

James K. Hackett Next Friday and
 Saturday

Much curiosity has been engendered in the coming engagement of James K. Hackett at the Shubert theatre on next Friday and Saturday with a mat inee Saturday in his latest and most successful presentation, "The King S Game" which was written for him by Charles Bracket Seitz. The local en- eagement is to be made under the di- rection of William A. Brady, limited.
 The action of "The Kings Game" is placed in one of the smaller imaginary European municipalities The anarchists are planning against the king who Is the cetral figure of the story. He Is a fun-loving monarch and he Is Keen to see things in their own setting, free from all the fuss and fust1an with which king is expected to be handi- capped
 Against the kings life conspir- acy is afoot and the leader is Sargius Darinilis. who is the Baron Won Tromp With his daughter they plan that tht king Is to be killed by bomb, tha they are fabricating. To young work

human interest of love, or originality. and telling a story of everyday people so naturally, yet forcefully, that it gets grip on ones heart that cannot be of- faced, is the latest instance of theatrical fortune. The play was produced in New York In September by Messrs. Cohan and Harris, who relied absolutely and entire ly upon their own judgment in both their selection of plays and actors.
 The first production of "The Fortune Hunter was given in Atlantic City, N. J., March 15 1909, with Thomas W. Ross
 in the title role. A tour of five weeks in the cities near New York was made and the play was then withdrawn for the summer for it's opening at the Gaiety theatre, New York on the following Labor Day. It scored an instant suc- cess in New York and continued at the Gaiety theatre for one year. A western company was organized and. justifying the judgment of Conan and Harris, th1s company played eight months at the Olympic theatre, Chicago. where it broke all records for that city, with 3O9 per- formances to its credit.
 "The Fortune Hunter" holds the his torical record for Chicago. Nor is the record entirely an numerical marvel. No play ever began in mid-winter and then passed to and through the following sum- mer, yet withal, Winchell Smiths com- edy began December 26, 1909, In Chicago, met all newcomers for favor, played to approximate capacity throughout its run, was unaffected by the hottest wealth CT in attendance, and when other the atres were forced to close for the usual summer period, showed impetus rather than loss of. partnoage and It's run was closed not by desire of Conan and iar- ris or the Olympic theatre management, but because bookings made early in the spring could not be broken and other cities demanded that the play be brought there. The books of the theatre show that nearly 800 GOO persons saw 'The For tune Hunter" during the Chicago run a creditable record.
 Yet this overwhelming and instanta- neous success was refused by every man. ager in New York It's author read the self-same play to a half dozen prominent producers, who could not see possible chance for it's success. The day after the first performance of The Fortune Hunter,'' Mir. Smith received dozen offers for manuscripts he might have on hand. or anything he might write, from tbe very same managers who had so scornfully declined The Fortune Hun ter"

man who resembles the king, is as- signed the duty of throwing the dead- ly bomb, and when the time comes to throw the fatal instrument it is the real king who throws it. Woven with much intricacy is the love story that concerns the king and the baron 5 daughter When the final curtain falls the turgid atmosphere has been cleared and the king returns to his throne while the girl who has learned to love the king realizes that he is a morta! with hopes and feelings as she has. and from hating kings she comes to see them as human beings.
 The seat sale for all three perform ances will be ready at 9 Ia. m. Tuesday. il At the BijOu
 For the first time in many weeks 3 real melodrama will be the attraction at the Bijou this week, commencing with the performance Monday night No Mother to Guide Her. Is an intensely interesting story of life in and around New York, taken from newspaper ac- count of an incident around which the play was built. It verifes the old claim that truth Is stranger than fiction for 1t
 is based on an actual happening.
 lne StOty IS lildl oi d SpuHB 6hl WHV starts in the world without mother to direct her footsteps. She falls in with a young man who betrays her under promise of marriage, and following this there are series of thrilling. interest ing and exciting incidents. in which there is robbery and number of other crimes.
 The young girl has but one friend in the world, a homeless waif, who, how ever, has the instincts of right and wrong, and who is brave and possessed of un- usual smartness. On more than one oc- cason when things look blackest for the heroine, this waif saves her from the plots of the villain and enables her in the end to come out victorious and with a good name.
 The heavy plot is broken here and there with bits of human, hcmely comedy that are clean and laughable. and these bits serve to relieve the intense scenes which
 form the many heart throbs of the play. s~ Re-
 The locale of the various scenes per init of several splendid stage settings and effects which opportunity has been taken advantage of by the management Tn pro ducing 'No Mother to Guide Her. one of the scenes which is particularly vivid
 
 tornado, which occurs at the end of the second act. The lightning strikes at q critical moment and saves the girl from one of the men who is seeking her ln- jury .f 4ffl
 Of course there is a good love story running through the play and this ends happily as all good love stories do The play also has healthy moral tone, and this feature of it has caused IL to he highly commended from many sources during the four years that it has beer appearing in this country.
 ''No Mother to Guide Her" is story that appeals strongly to women, as there | iss every feature. that delights the fail | theatregoer.

The author has sought to point out | the handicap imposed on the social, eco homie and political progress of Ameri- cans The chief character is a Swiss jew eler and watchmaker of fine, old-fash- lioned ideas, who insists that the ways of his forebears in the Fatherland must be his ways in the United States. The story of how he is left standing still, a 1 Bourbon to the end, is carried out by means of an assortment of well contrast ed and American types. It is in this play that Mir Mann is seen in a game of pin ochle, which has been described as the lmost amusing 'footlfghting" of cards ever seen on the stage. Madame Mathlde Cottrely will appear In prominent part.

| He Win not 81 u l61fil ehesfea, d
course. as are the worthies who give
| soft4muscled thousands All excuse for
pretending to be interested ii athletic
sports, when really they care only for
the least important feature Of such
sports. the winning Of games. Still.
Jerry Moore does have his reward, for
he is considered something Of person
age by official and unofficial exponents
Of scientific agriculture all over the
country, and his corn championship has
an intrinsic Importance which good
many others lack.
Only too often people are exhorted to
get back to the land, regardless of the
fact that they wouldn't know what to
do with it or themselves after they got
there. Until recently about the only
teachers they would have found if they
went were elderly farmers whose laud
was Ia d condition that guaranteed the
utter wrongness of any lessons they
might give. They were more like
miners than farmers, for every crop
they raised brought nearer the day
when no crops at all could grow on that
land, and still more were they like man
ufacturers who little by little sold their
factories instead of using them to turn
raw materials into merchandise.
Jerry Moore, presumably, is or will be
farmer Of q different sort. He will
not have to whine about exhausted
land, or go to Canada in search of pi-
oneer conditions, where he can stick to
the methods Of his venerable grand
father and prosper for time in spite
Of remote markets. One may well
~
doubt whether he will find it practic-
able part Of commercial farming to raise
228 bushels of corn to the acre, but UNI
doubleday he will pay not less attention
to the pedigree of his grain than to that
Of his livestock, and the lessons he
teaches city folk who go back to the
land will be worth learning. He will
tell them, for instance. that the selec-
ton of seed is much more than the pick
ing out of pretty specimens. since they
may be the scanty product Of an un-
prolific strain, and he may even lecture
learnedly on Mendel's law. If he can
understand that, and make others under /
stand it, he will be wonder indeed.
