An old acquaintance who pays us
a visit once a year and each time

Of talent, that has ever appeared
under the caption "Bohemians."
Twenty rollicklng, jovial, shapely
show girls are seen with this popular
Organization. The merry girls, more
over, possess unusual singing and
dancing abilities and are arrayed in
handsome costumes.

Charles Frohman at the Newark

the well-known actor, John Mason,
as its star and the exponent of it's

heard much during the spring and
summer 1t was originally presented
at the Gymnase Theatre In Paris last
February, and it is still running
there. In France it is known as
"L'Assautn and Mr.. Frohman's first
iptention was to call it here "The On
slaught." Later he changed this to
"The Attack" Bernstein In this play
which is said to have exercised a
greater influence over the Partisan
public than did his previous work.
"The Thief" does not deal with any
of the themes which American thea

"PASSERS-BY" TO BE AT
THE NEWARK NEXT WEEK

Next week at the Newark Theatre
will be presented one of the biggest
of the successes of the past year in
New York city. The play is Pass
ers-by," which ran at the Criterion
Theatre from the middle Of Septem-
Der until after the holidays.
Nothing novel is claimed for the
theme of the comedy; that is as old
as men and women, but it is the
entirely different way in which it is
presented that makes the play so
novel. Mr.. Chambers is expected to
write brilliant dialogue, and the
author of 1.-THE Tyranny of Tears
and Captain Swift" has not disap-
pointed his public in "Passers-by."
1T Is a story of man-love and
woman-love. in which the bar sin
lister appears. and from the time the
first curtain goes up until the last
one falls the attention of the auditor
is compelled.
The ending is a happy one, but it
is brought about from a very unex-
pected quarter. Charles Cherry is
the star of "Passers-by," and in the
part of Peter Waverton this player
is said to have found a role which
suits him in every possible way.
Charles Frohman has provided a
supporting company of the greatest
excellence, including: Charlotte Ives,
Alma Belwin, Annie Esmonde, Lewis
Edgarde, A. G. Andrews, Frank Wes-
terton and little Mimi Yvonne.
Charles Frohman presents Charles
Cherry in "Passers-by'' at the New
ark Theatre for a weeks engage
ment, which opens Monday evening.
Matinees will be given wednesday
