'DURG0MASTER IS
M|RTHS MERIDIAN
Fun Flows in Full Measure
Through Comedy at oIym-
pic Park.

Fun had its inning at Olympic
Park last night. Laugh? Why, there
was scarcely a moment throughout
the prologue and two acts of The
Burgomaster'' hat wasn't ~surcharged
with whole-souled gayety, keeping
the audience in an almost continuous
roar.
Harry Hermsen, as old Peter Stuy-
vesant, the Dutch Governor and bur-
gomastef of New Amsterdam. was
the quintessence of quaint comicai-
ity, and his care-free attitude toward
Indians, British and trouble invested
the prologue with a humor tina was
simply irresistible.
History, of course, is treated in a
most cavalierly manner in the play;
and, indeed. the program cautions the
audience not to worry too, much
about this phase of the show. A
wise admonition! For the real. one
pegged Peter S~tuyvesant would never
have fathered the actions OF which
his namesake in the play is guilty.
Fol to escape the cares OF govern
ment, his excellency. the burgomas-
ter, quaffs a bumper of liquor that
puts him into a sleep from which ne
wakes no more until 1912-a matter
OF $50 years or so. And it is at
this awakening that the real fun of
the play begins. ~.
Doodle Won Kull. the burgomaster's
assistant, had imbibed of the same
vintage, and the two wake up
together to find themselves in Madi-
son Square, New York.
Second only to the burgomaster
himself in funniness is Doodle Won
Kull. and 1t is but fair to William
Sellery, who enacts the part, 10 a
that he does the character full JUS
tice.
The adventures of Stuyvesant and
Doodle in the tenderloin from the
theme of the rest of the play, ana
Comus himself, the inventor of laugh-
ter. could scarcely be conceived as
devising anything funnier than the
vicissitudes of these two characters.
Miss Stella Tracey was a lieutenant
in the prologue and in the subsequent
acts Willie Van Astorbilt, a DASH
ing young Johnnie" In both roles
she lived up to her own standard.
which means that, in acting and
singing alike, she was admirable,
receiving round after round OF APP
plause.
Miss Leigh Buchanan, as Daisy, a
root garden favorite, also sang and
danced her way into the affections
of the audience.
Miss Lucille Saunders, as the wife
of Peter S~tuyvesant in the prologue,
and later as a theosophist, who rec
ognizes in him her soul-mate, con-
tributed not a little to the hilarity
the play, as did Miss Ethel Morton
In the dual role of an unsophisticated
Dutch maiden and a rather sophisti-
Gated one from Chicago.
