THE HEIR TO THE HOORAH"
TO BE ORpHEUM OFFERING.

That stirring play of Western mining
life, 1.-The Heir to the Hoorah," by
Paul Armstrong, the author of alias
Jimmy Valentine and Deep Purple"
is next weeks offering by the Corse
Payton Stock Company, at the Or
pheum Theatre. Manager Payton has
the honor of giving the first stock pres
entation of this work by Mr.. Arm
strong in this city.
More of the picturesque is to be seen
in this piece than in either alias
Jimmy Valentine or Deep Purple
The characters, particularly those Of
the rough and ready W~esterners, are
masterfully drawn. Dramatic effect is
created by the unusual situations in
which the playwright places opposing
types, and to the gradual breaking
down of the barrier by the leveling
power of love and a baby, the heir to
the Hoorah, which is the name of Joe
Lacey's mine. The conflict of person
alities takes place when Joe, a rough
diamond, weds a file flower OF Eastern
civilization. The mother-in-law re-
CARDS Joe and his pals las of low
character when they show '~ignorance''
in trying to act up to their dress suits
at the wedding feast,

Mars in Limelight at
z Theatres Next Week
In RoIIicking Comic Opera, Chocolate Soldier, at Shuberts, and
IittIest Rebel" With Its Exquisite Beauty
and Pathos, at the Newark.

HTHE opera that has won the
hearts and the homage of
four nations is none too
great d tribute to pay to The Choco-
late soldier for the beauties of its
music, united to a libretto of rare
dramatic quality, have made it the
operate darling of America for three
seasons, thereby confirming the juds-
ment Of London, Berlin and Vienna,
whore the opera collapsed all its rivals.
Coming to Newark For the first time,
the opera Will bs housed at the new
Shubert Theatre for a -yeek, beginning
next Monday.
Until Straus determined to put Shaw
to music the a~daptsbiiity Of the IRE
pressible I~rishnaan's comedies to the
usases Of light opera was not
imagined. In the opinion Of critics,
Darwin or Plato would have bsen no
more incongraous IN q musical setting
than Shaw, but these gentlemen
reckoned without their hosts. Straus
found in the satiric scene the paro-
dies OF romantic encounters ana the
efsrvescent whimsicalities of Arms
and the Man" an impetus for creating
melodies At for every mood.
In ordsr to do full justice to the
elaborate presentation he has made Of
this gsna Of vienness opera, Mr.. Whit
nsy has provided a special orchestra Of
musicians. To the uniform excellence
u the whitney Opera Company are
added tho dramatic gifts Of each artist.
The cast which VIII present this
masterpiece Is the resztt OF the most
psanstaking selection on the part of
Mr.. Whitney. Strange as It may seem,
after three years. the male roles are
stin in the hands of Those who origin
ated them In this country, and It has
been said here that George Tallrnan.
Francis j. Boyle ana George O'Don-
nell comprise the greatest trio Of sing
srs and comedians that have ever
been seen IN connie opera In this ooun-
try. Two young women OF exceptional
talent will be seen in the prima donna
role. Miss Alice Yorke has been called
tho ideal Nadins. and Miss Vivian
Weadon, who a~iternAtes with her, sang
the part only a few weebrs ago in the
Manhattan Opera House, where she
won great praise for her work. Mil
bred Rogers was with the
last year and was formerly contraito
OF the Boston Grand Opera Company,
while Juanita Fletcher is said to be
n of the sprightliest Maschas that
ever appeared in this difficult role. The
company still has the famous chorus
of sixty trained singers and orchestra
of forty soloists, undo the direction
of the veteran conductor, John Lund.

TEN ACTS AND LOADS OF FUN
ARE COMING TO PROCT0R'S.

Fun and plenty of it is in store for
patrons of Proctor's Park Place Thea
IRE with the offerings of that house for
the coming week. The bill is one of
special excellence, containing ten acts
of unusual merit. Aside from its en-
pertaining qualities the bill will serve
to convince local theatre-goers that the
management of the local vaudeville
house was sincere in the promise that
the best and the best only would be Sc
cured for presentation.
AS the headliner CHUCK Connors in
Chinatown After Dark will doubtless
prove something of a novelty. CHUCK"
occupies a particularly peculiar posi-
lion among playerfolk. The playlet re-
fleets a phase of life in the Chinese
quarter of Manhattan with which
Chuck has for many years been iden-
tilted.
There will also be a prominent place
on the bill for those clever fun-malsers,
William Fl. Murphy and Blanche Mich
OILS, in that uproarious burlesque enti-
lied From Zaga to Uncle Tom" Add
tional fun will be turned out by 1.-THE
Foolish Factory" with the help of the
six O'Connor sisters, while Ward and
Curran will again exercise their COM
pulsory methods in Extracting huinor
out of the grotesque situations in "The
Terrible Judge" Other contributors to
the bill will include Lyons and Yosco,
the two Newark boys. who have more
than made good in their picturesque
street scenes; Eddie Leonard, the old
time minstrel, and Miss Mabel Russell,
in the merry melange Of mimicry, mel
ody and mirth, entitled 1.-THE Maid and
the Minstrel" Stella Karl, the
dainty singing coincidence; the
wheelers, in the laughter-making farce
billed as Fun on the Boulevard" and
the photo plays.
Made up in the character of Italian
street musicians, two of the cleverest
entertainers in vaudeville. Lyons and
Yosco. Newark boys, will give fifteen
minutes of pleasure with harp, cello
and vocal selections.
Una Abel Brinker, the popular lead
ing woman of the Summer Stock Com
pany, will be seen shortly at Proetor's

A police court episode in one OF the
local courts this week had about It a
reminder Of the tragedies Of life that
the great Dickens often treated. A g.
year-old girl was arrested for picking
pockets. The police say that she Is an
old offender and that although she ix
but 8 years old she Is "one of the

BY this the police admit that there
are other stiil younger piokpockets and
that she liz not the only ono the gem

a condition of affairs that would per
nit Of such things should be allowed
In this country is indeed depiorable.
As yet there Is no society in Newark
that makes 1t a business Of following
up such cases and looking into the
cause of them. True, there Is q truant

of other kinds, but IL is not SO much
