Yiddish Drama Tonight.

The success of the noted Yiddish
actress Nine. Esther Ruchel kaminsky
at the Belasco Theater last Sunday night
was so pronounced that another presenta-
ton for tonight was arranged for. To-
night Nine. Kaminsky will present the
Yiddish play entitled THE Wild Girl.
and will, as last Sunday. be supported by
the Lipzin Theater Company of New
York city. which includes Charles Ma
thanson and Max Rosenthal Others i'm the
cast will be Bessie Weissman. David
Groll. E. Teplitsky and $. linden. The
histrionic work of these Yiddish players
is attracting the attention of English
speaking playgoers and dramatic critics
of the daily press. So realistic is said to
be their art that one can follow pretty
clearly the story of the play without
knowledge of the Yiddish tongue.

can expedition, in which lions. rhinoS,
leopards, CRATES and other jungle ami
mails were lassoed by Buffalo Jones ana
his American COW boys and then released.
The hunter will explain the many scenes
in characteristic cowboy manner, which
is said to be as interesting as Ii is un-
conventional. Buffalo Jones is heart and
soul for putting a stop to the wholesale
slaughter of animals. He claims TO prove
in his motion pictures that man, not
beast is master, and to destroy an ami
NAL is not to be compared with the sport
of lassoing il alive and letting IL go, to Its
own utter amaZement. Buffalo Jones, SD
named for his efforts in protecting the
American bison, was at one time game
warden of Yellowstone Park.
