The DrOne," which will be presented
by William A. Brady, Ltd, at the Belasco
Theater next week, comes from the
Royalty Theater, London, where it scored
a success closely resembling the hit of

play as ''Bunty,' although not at all re-
semblnS it in story or characters 1t
is laid in the farm country, and the peo-
pie in it mainly are agricultural types.
The central parsonage is a gentle, kindly,
but rather crafty man of middle age,
who has managed to string along
through life without doing any manual
laoOr. having convinced his brother, a

his alleged invention to good account in
the end, disposing of it to save his
brother from marrying a sour-visaged
spinstef neighbor who has set her cap
for him and trapped him into a pro-
posal.
Whitford Kane, who plays the title
role. Is regarded as one of the. foremost

Mr.. Brady saw the performance while
he was abroad last summer and i'm
