Engagement.

z IMAGINE an arched row of five little
attached brick houses at the right
of the stage, a river at the left,
half-hidden, hedge-surrounded nook
for lovers and a tree with seats around
it, in the centre of the stage and you
have the setting for the entire three
acts of Louis N. Parker's "~Pomander
Walk,i' which will begin its initial
Newark engagement at the Shubert
Theatre Monday evening, March IS.
In the play is worked out four love
stories, and with such faithfulness to
the atmosphere of the England of 1906.
when the I'M of Sheridan, Fox and
Napoleon were on the lips of all, that
the recital of the lives of a score of
people in this secluded section of Lon
don is like the opening of an old chest
in which fingers the perfume of the
roses of long ago.
There is the retired admiral Sir
Peter Antrobus, who presides in a
rough but gallant way over the des-
TIMES Of the walk, and who is not
nearly so graceful when he lifts his
mug of ale in a toast to the king, as
is his neighbor. the retired butler,
masquerading under the imposing name

there is the French lady, Nine.
Lucie Lachesnais, as handsome as
she is mysterious, and whose pref
ty daughter Marjolaine is the hero
inc of this ethereal but entertain
ing comedy; there is Lord Oxford,
who once loved Mime. Lachesnais, and
who comes by happy chance to consult
with his old friend the admiral and
be reconciled with her. and there is
his son Jack, of course, for all the old
English heroes are Jacks, who rows
down from Richmond n discovers
the captivating Marjolaine.
A number of artists in this notable
cast were previously known to New
ark theatre-goers, having played here
in various high-class dramatic at
fractions in years past. The authors
daughter, Miss Dorothy Parker, plays
the principal female role, and most
successfully, too, although this is her
second season upon the stage. Other
members of the cast are George Gid
dens, Edgar Kent, Lennox Pawle, Reg
inald Dance, T. Wigney Percyval, Stan
ley Lathbury, Leslie M. Hunt, Marie
Burke, Maud Milton, Cynthia Brooke
and winnifred Fraser. This Is identi-

England 10 nothing II not proud.
That pride was humbled in the dust
during the greater part Of the war
In the Transvaal. And no Boer gem
eral inflicted greater damage upon
Britain'g military prestige than
Botha. Like practically all the other
Boer leaders, he had no military train
ing in the European sense. Yet he
won the great victories over the Brit
ish at Colenso and Spion Kop, and
after the siege OF Ladysmith he held
the chief command OF the Boer forces.
He carried on desultory warfare for
months after Pretoria was taken and
Paul Kruger had gone into exile. But
when further resistance was useless,
he submitted and returned to his
farm. He accepted the situation and
did all he could to advance the well
fare Of his people under British con-
troll. Thus he retained their conf
dence and won that Of the conquerors.
Soon he was called to be the premier
Of the Transvaal. Three years later
he was made premier of the Union Of
South Africa,,says the Cleveland Lead
or. Now, by special command OF
King George, he has been commits
stoned general in the British army.
1t would be strange II the victor OF
Colenso and Spion Kop did not In
dulge himself to the extent at least
of grim smile, when he received no
tice of this honor. And he probably
speculated upon what some Of the
drawing room generals In London
thought of 1t. But England, besides
being proud, Is wise.

"Blijah was lucky man." he re-
marked Instead Of being compelled
to linger and die of some unpleasant
disease. he was carried to heaven In

You're wrong" protested the party

be afflicted with an impediment in his
speech. "Bay-Bay-lis, you're r-rr-

"You can't convince me that that

retorted Steele, and the dispute waxed
warm. After 1t had ragged for some
three minutes It reached the betting
stage.
TBet you I'm right" said Steele.
"T-t-t-taken," said the party Of the

'What'll we bet?" asked Steele.

The thousands of admirers of Rob-
ert j. Burdette will rejoice in the fact
that new book from his pen, en-
titled "Old Time and Young Tom,"
has just been issued. He has en-
deared himself to the American pub
lie through his long career on the
lecture platform, and everyone must
feel a certain tenderness toward any
thing he says or writes. He himself
is 80 kindly. he has helped so largely
toward making the world a more
cheerful place and he has met life
with bravery which has made the
petty annoyances OF everyday living
sink into obscurity.
In his new book Mr.. Burdette offers
fifteen of his famous sketches, and
these are representative of Burdette
at his best. This means very indi-
vidual humor, some very tender pa
thos and a peculiarly human quality
which can hardly fail of awakening
universal sympathy. Mr.. Burdette
really has only one theme whenever
he speaks, and that is the theme of
life itself. Sometimes he treats 1t as
whole, as is the first and second
sketches of "Old Time and Young
Tom," which Are entitled "The Rise
and Fall of the Mustache" and "My
Kindergarten of Fifty Years." and
again he seizes some special aspect,
as In taking Account of Stock"
"The Average Man" or Wasting
Other Peoples Time" But no matter
in what way he treats his subject,
he makes 1t vitality interesting and
entertaining, for Mr.. Burdette has
studied life and It's problems in all
their various aspects, and so sunny
Is his own mind that the clouds of
pessimism have never crossed his
horizon.
To read "Old Time and Young
Tom is to come in close contact with
the magnetic personality of the au-
thor. He writes as he talks-clearly,
forcefully, humorously-and while
every page teens with the sharp wit
for which he is noted, 1t is interviewer
with wholesome philosophy and deep
thought. Although Mr.. Burdette pre-
fers his subjects with a lightness of
touch that makes easy and entertain
ing reading, there is nothing super
ficial about what he says and he un-
folds many solid truths which are
we'll worthy of serious consideration.
"old Time and Young Tom" Is
book which will appeal to young and
old alike. For those who have heard
