STOCK co. AT JACOBS
IN TONY THE BooTBLAcK'

"Tony the Bootblack," a thrilling
melodrama by AL. H. Wood, is the
offering at Jacobs's Theatre this
week, and judging from the applause
received last night the Klimt & Gaz-
zolo Stock Company will have a very
successful week.
A wealthy heiress is kidnapped and
held for ransom by the Black Hand
gang, but through her friends and
sweetheart she is rescued at the
critical moment. The leading man,
Allen Mathes, as Tony, the boot
black, and Miss Grace Hale, as the
heiress, proved their popularity with
the audience at Jacobs's last night.
Plenty of action throughout the
piece pleases the patrons of the
home of melodrama in this city.
The stock company, although only
here two weeks, has drawn bigger
crowds than the other performances
there since the beginning of the
season.

"The Master of the House." at
Shubert's, Is an Appeal
to Femininity.
MEN IN AUDIENCE ALSO
GET FOOD FOR REFLECTION
With All It's Comic Element the
Play Conveys a Serious
Lesson.

THE Master of the House de-
scribed as an American comedy
drama in four acts. was presented for
the first time in this city before a
good-sized audience at the Shubert
Theatre last night.
The title of the piece is misleading
inasmuoh as !. is apt to lead one to
believe that the play is all serious
ness. In a sense it is, because 1t
treats of a serious subject, but in an
interesting manner The comedy is
not of the slap-stick variety, but
rather of the sort that one most ap-
preciates.
The plot If the piece is woven
around an old story, but the author,
Edgar James, who frankly admits his
indebtedness for the basic idea to a
German source. has given it a few
new twists and turns, new phases,
and has worked out the lessons he
seeks to convey so interestingly that
there are few moments throughout
the entire four acts that are free
from its surprises.
Appeals Primarily to Women.
The play itself. while interesting
enough to men. appeals primarily to
women because it pictures. and
tIuthfully, too, how many men en-
deavor to justify their fickleness-
1t must not be taken, however,
that it is not a play for men, because
it is 1t must interest deeply any
man of high ideals, as it demonstrates
the wisdom of pursuing these ideals.
One of the many themes in the play
is that a man fixes one standard of
living for himself and another for a
m
To get back to the plot. There is
pictured a man who has been kept so
busy amassing a fortune that his
nome and wife have become but incl
dents at his command. When this
fortune is acquired m the man has
had opportunity to glance about him.,
at the psychological moment there
falls under his glance his wife's COM
paaio,i, a young parsonage as COM
pick rs she is bewitching.
This interloper in the family soon
both the head of the house
and his son, and the innocent wife,
blind to the infatuation of the hus-
band, just as %innocently precipitates
the upheaval of the home.
Plays Into Hands of Her Rival.
The wife and mother in an effort
to save her son from the designing
woman Unexpectedly drives her hus-
band into the arms of the unprin-
cipled siren. Here the author has
shown his master hand and has
worked out the remainder of the plot
in a manner that brings about the
rebuilding of the home that has been
upset.
In the hands of a less competent
company the purpose of the author
might easily have gone astray. Miss
Florence Reed in the role of the in
terloper, the trouble-maker, stood out
prominently over the other members
of the cast, despite their c%leverness
in their respective roles. The role
Just fitted her to a nicely, and she
was equal to her every opportunity
without in The least overriding her
Part.
1t might be said also that several
of the other members of the cast were
guilty or this fault of OVERRIDING it,
but on the whole their work was
pleasing.

PACKARD MODEL

The latest model of the Packard car.
the "S8," is now on view at the Pack
ard salesrooms in this city. Several
new features. many Of them exclusive,
are noticed in this machine. Among
these are the left-hand drive and the
electric s~elf-starter, the latter devel-
oped to the point of positive eff
cheney.
The left-hand drive has been Sc
lected by the Packard engineers be-
cause experiment has shown that it is
more convenient. The placing of the
gear and emergency brake levers be-
tween the two front seats makes it
possible for passengers to enter the
front seat from either side. A high
tension dual ignition separate from
the starting and lighting system Is
another feature.

"The Rose Maid" Captiyates
Enthusiastic Audience at
the Newark.
DANCING OPERETTA PUTS
ENCHANTING GARB ON FUN
Begins With Riotous Waltz and
eliminates in Bewitching
Cavalry Scene.

With practically the same capable
that captivated audiences
in New York last year, scoring {
record breaking all-summer run
Werba & L~uescher's production, THE
Rose Maid made its DEBUT at the
Newark Theatre last night.
.nrhe Rose Maid is undoubtedly
he most pretentious of all the Werba
& Luescher attractions, and bids fan
10 score a more signal success thar
The same firms Spring Maid, which
charmed Newark audiences here last
season.
The music of the piece is by Bruno
Granichstaedten, the lyrics by ROD
ert B. Smith.
Humor and Story Go Hand in Hand.
In adapting the book of THE Rose
Maid to American standards Harry
b. Smith and Raymond Peck have
added the necessary humor without
interfering in any way with It's
charming story
The play has been aptly termed a
dancing operetta. 1t begins with a
riotous waltz, and each musical num-
Der has its especial dance culminat-
ing in the cavalry dance in which all
the members of the company appear
garbed in the cavalry uniforms OF
all nations.
The story of 1.-THE Rose Maid, =
centreing about the Duke of Bar
chester, a young nobleman living be-
yond his income, and the little rose
GIRL who wears the white rose o.
friendship because, as she proves, It
is more enduring than the red rose
of love, holds the interest of the au-
dience throughout.
Duke a Prey to ShylOcks.
The duke has fallen prey to three
modern shylocks who lend him money,
hoping to get rich at the expense of
the dukes rich uncle. The latter,
however, learning of his nephew's ex-
travagant habits, d%isinherits him.
and all his friends whom he had been
winning and dining in true princely
fashion desert him.
Even the Princess Hilda. to whom
re has been betrothed, breaks the
engagement.
But Daphne. the little rose girl"
remains true to the end, and the rich
uncle, who turns put to be a pretty
good fellow after all. restores the
inheritance on the dukes promise to
wed the Rose Maid"
sKute Riddles" Win storm Of Applause.
One of the features of the operetta
and the one which probably won the
most favor with the audience vas the
dance in the second act in which the
six little Kute Riddles, the oldest
probably not more than 10 years old,
appeared. They were encored again
and again.
To single out any particular mem
Der of the company for praise would
be unfair to the others. All ac-
quilted themselves well. Miss Doro-
thea Maynard in the title role was
charming, while Arthur Clough as
the duke made a dashing young no.
bleman. Robert E. Graham as Sir
John Portman, the dukes uncle. and
Ed Gallagher, AL Shean and Percy
Ripple as the three money lenders,
furnished the comedy of the play and
lad the audience in parozysms of
laughter throughout. Mr.. Shean as
Schmucke was especially funny.
Others in the cast who are deserv-
ing of mention are Miss Edith Decker
as the Princess Hilda, Miss May
Emory as the Countess Bertrand.
and Charles Crompton as BERTHE.
