The humor of the tale develops out
Of complications which possess the
dash and spontaneity of their Gallo
original.
These find their basis i'm the ef-
forts of a harmless antique dealer in
Paris to pose as a satyr the girls
are all searching for. He does
this in order to help a young GUS
toner out of predicament and his
futile efforts to appear what he
would make the others believe he is,
make no end of laughter. There are
laughs in unusual quantity in the
story and the best Of ii is, they spring
from situations that are cleverly con-
trived and make them seem the most
natural sequence of the developments.
Keeping pace with this, Mr. Carysl
has woven in his score so adroitly
that it is made an integral part OF
the whole, and while there are de-
licious numbers that can be singled
out for their individual merit each
song is made part of the story's
progression and belongs at just that
juncture in the unfolding of the story.
TO present the piece here Klaw &
Erlanger have outdone themselves m
the way of productions. Such spIen-
did utilization Of colors and harmony
of effects have never been seen up
on the stage and 1t gives the per-
Torrance that convincing frame which
makes the whole stand apart as the
real artistic achievement of the Amer
lean stage in the way of a delightful
musical comedy.

pie will interpret the piece here and

The bill at the orpheum for the
week OF May 81 Is one that will appeal
to all. The headiiner for the first half
OF the week, is the American -Four,
comedy and harmony singers, a new
act TO Fargo that has been making
good in the east There are the Rich
ards in clever novelty singing. Leon
& Bertie Allen have a musical comedy
which they have named A Good
Natured Wife. Ed Ames, a more than
clever novelty dancer has the single
turn. St Julian Trio is made up Of a
clever troupe direct from Europe in
new novelties, never before seen here
The Orpheumscope opens and closes
the show. and there are new and novel
pictures shown.
For the last half The Four Flying
Valentines are the headliners, with the
Richards in novelty songs, Seymour &
Dupree in a comedy oddity and Bill
Adams in singing and talking and
whistling. Hauseley q Nicholas have
a new comedy musical turn that has
been going good in the east. You will

search of refined and varied entertain

particular attention.
The Great Albini, himself. the man
of humor, magic. mystery and IL

performance than ever, and his own
production represents an investment
of many dollars, requiring a baggage
car to transport, and also requiring
the assistance of three ladies and four
gentlemen In the act Albinis per-
formance can be changed daily,
through the great variety of apparatus
that he carries.
The most important in the COM
pany are perhaps the -Four Avolos, the
world premier xylophonists, who pro-
duce wonderful music Of a popular
and classical nature, and who are also
rendering Charles Avolos hit. the

Automobile Colony Loses Another
Branch Manager by Pro-
motion Route.

That Washington is an excellent train
ing ground for those engaged in the auto
mobile game, and is being recognized as
such by the main office. is shown by the
fact that within the past few weeks sew
eral local branch managers have been
promoted to higher positions and at the
same time given more responsibility.
The latest transfer is that of +. w.
Powers. more popularity known as
Wade Powers, local manager of the
Washington branch of the Goodyear Tire
and Rubber Company. He returned from
Akron. Ohio. yesterday, where he was in
formed of his promotion to be manager of
the Philadelphia branch of that company.
He will leave Washington about Decem-
Der l.. to assume his new duties. The
Quaker city branch is much larger than
the one here. in fact, is the largest IN
the east. Announcement probably will
be made tomorrow who his successor Will
be.
Mr. Powers is one of the most popular
men in the tire business in Washington.
Four years ago he came here to be man.
ager of the local branch. having come
from St. Louis, Mo, where he was
cashier of that branch. In October. 1910,
, he opened the Baltimore branch, which
also came under his management, together
with the local branch August IL last
he moved into the new branch, which
was constructed for the company at l0lG
14th street northwest under his Supervi-
sion Previous to that time he was man
ager of the branch at 1926 Connecticut

Cadillac Traffic Manager.

A. G. WestfaiI. traffic manager of the

was a visitor here all of last week He
attended conference of the southern
classification committee, composed of
railroad officials handling southern trans
portation lines, east of the Mississippi
river and south of the Ohio and Potomac
rivers. The object of the meeting was
to discuss the rate proposition for ship
ping motor cars. Mr.. Westfa1l accom-
panied &. J. Shaar of the Packard Motor
Car Company and J. S. Marvin of New
York of the national automobile manu-
facturerS.
In speaking of the traffic situation in
Detroit Mr.. Westfall said that there are
but $1,000 wide side-door cars for the
accommodation of approximately 5000
carloads of automobiles from Detroit
alone. The great trouble in the traffic
department is to keep the freight cars
moving back to the loading point. Last
year over 200 automobiles were parked
on the streets of Detroit, day and night,
owing to the shortage of freight cars
and no garage facilities for housing the
cars. At one time there was $1,2js, 900
worth of automobiles stored on the
streets of that city.

Foreign Car Exhibit.

The arrangement whereby the salon
Of imported cars inaugurates the Ameri-
can automobile show season of 1913 is a
fitting one, for Europe was the birthplace
of the modern motor vehicle and the
cradle of it's infancy. The salon will
open in New York January 2, in the grand
ballroom of the Aston and close on the
18th, the day the big double show
begins simultaneously in Madison Square
Garden and the Grand Central Palace.
Although the automobile has its widest
use in this country and the American
built car is beginning to dominate the
worlds markets. it is still to the foreign
car that we look for new ideas in de-
sign and construction and the introduce
ton of novel features. 1t is this fact
that gives unusual interest to the annual
exhibition of foreign cars in New York.

WAS AN ABLE EXECUTIVE
c. w. Nash, Manager of Buick
Plant at Flint, Mich, Is Slated
to Succeed Him.

After a two-year term of office as
president of the General Motors Com
pany, during which time a successful re-
organization has been accomplished and
the big company re-established on a
profitable and stable basis, Thomas Neal
s relinquishing the presidency and will
become chairman of the board of di-
rectors.
In the fall of 1919, when the big COM
pany was refinanced and the executive
offices moved from New York to Detroit,
the financial interests supporting the
company realized the necessity of secur-
ins as president q man of very broad
business experience. capable not only of
exercising the abilities of an organizer and
the judgment of an experienced manu-
facturer. but also OF inspiring confidence
in financial circles and in the investing
public Mr. Neal was approached and
urged to take the office. and while at
tracted by the great possibilities offered
to a man keenly Interested in business
undertakings. he accepted with some
hesitancy because of the great personal
sacrifice. necessitated by the close APP
plicatiOn to detail and executive work,
at a time when he was more disposed to
shed burdens of that kind.
Permitted to Retire.
Mr.. Neal went into the office with the
understanding that at such time as the
business was re-established on a salts
factory basis he be permitted to retire
from the arduous duties of chief execu-
tive That such time has arrived is best
indicated by the financial report of the
company recently issued to the stock
holders, showing the business to be on a
splendid financial basis, with net earn
ing of over II per cent on the common
stock during the past year. Although Mr..
Neal is retiring from the presidency, he
purposes to retain his connection with
the company, and Will serve in dehnite
and official capacity as chairman OF the
board OF directors.
Under Mr. Meals administration the
General Motors Company has concentrat-
ed its manufacturing operations at plants
where large volume of production Is pos
sibe. The result of this policy has been
to make every plant an Garner.
The Cadillac. Buick. Oakland. Oldsm y
bile and Carter car plants are all working
to their fullest capacity to supply the
trade which these We'll known cars have
built up All CT the plants manufacture
ing accessories are enjoying similar pros
perity.
To his many friends Mr. Neal is best
known as a man of domestic tastes, who
derives his greatest pleasure from his
home life, the enjoyment of which the
past two years have given him but scant
time.
c. w Nash manager of the big Buic
plant at Flint, Will succeed Mr. Neal as
president.
