Washington all next week, beginning
Tuesday night-"A Certain Party like
ly to please the theatergoers of the
Capital and make them better acquaint-
ed with a young comedienne. Mabel
Hite, who has won high favor from
public and critics wherever she has ap-
peared.
This offering, under the management
of Liebler & Co., is a musical farce.
Besides having little fan with politics,
reform, temperance, and graft, "A Ger
tain Party" will endeavor TO speak the
last word on the servant problem.
Mabel Hite, the star of the produc-
ton, has a personal genius which is
the logical explanation of the great
vogue which she enjoys, and her new
musical piece is said to be just the kind
of medium in which she appears at her
best. She will have the support of her
husband, Mike Donlin. former National
League champion batsman: John T.
Kelly, one of the best known of Amer
lean comedians. and others of capa-
bility. A chorus of pretty girls lends
the requisite atmosphere for a musical
production like this.
