Academy.

With every moment laugh-provoking
one, everything of serious nature was
forgotten under the rapid fire of absurd
events that marked the action of Han
Ions new creation, "Fantasma," at the
New Academy last night. The audience
was one of the largest the playhouse has
accommodated this season, and the laugh
ter and applause in appreciation of the
modern innovations presented were al
most continuous. George Hanlon, jr., who
takes the part of PicO, is the chief fun
producer, and keeps the audience in a
continuous roar of laughter. The panto-
mime is woven around the story of Lena
and Arthur, who have fallen into the
hands of Zamalel, the evil spirit, but
are befriended by the beautiful fairy Fan
tasma.
In their score of adventures they travel
not only to the bottom of seas. but into
the mysterious castle and wonderful en-
chanted palaces of that romantic land
over which the fairy queen holds sway.
and all these serve to introduce the many
new tricks that are in evidence through
out the performance. Mr.. Hanlon also
presented a large array of specialties that
brought forth hearty encores. Frances
Lee, prima donna soprano. scored a hit
in her repertoire of classical musical Sc
lections. The Marvellous Youngmann
Family tightwire performers, gave a
clever sensational exhibition and deserved
the applause showered upon them. The
York Herbert Trio. in clever acrObatic
musical novelty, are also good. Clara
Thropp and the NELSON'S Flying Butter
flies also help to make up the excellent
performance.

Gayety.

Dave Marion and his troupe, 1.-The
Dreamland Company is the attraction
at the Gayety Theater this week, and
judged by the reception given the per-
Torrance last evening is a 'howling
success" Marion has staged a show
that is clever and clean and one that can
be appreciated by local patrons Of high
class musical comedy. There is chorus
of twenty handsomely gowned and well
voiced girls. Many of the scenic effects
are superior to any seen in a burlesque
show here for some time.
The original comedy of Marion, as
Snuffy, the cab driver, seems to keep
the house in continuous laughter. Charles
Mann. who assists Marion in the closing
number. renders several songs with a
good voice. Harry Sheppell drew his
share of applause with his songs and
THE Dreamland Trio made a decided
hit with its offerings. Mildred Gilmore
and Agnes Behler carry off the honors
in the feminine roles. Both are clever
entertainers.

New National.

Whimsical and sireneSQue is THE ST.
rem that was seen by big audience at
the National Theater last night, and that
served to present Donald Brian to Wash
ington theatergoers as a star. There is
one song in the piece that illustrates its
appeal. When heard in the first act it
appeals as a sweet, dainty melody; in
the second act it wins enthusiastic APP
plause, and at the end of the third and
last act it is whistled or hummed gen.
orally by the audience. At the end of
the first act of THE Siren there seemed
lack of enthusiasm, but that feeling
seemed framed to get the audience off
it's guard SO that the musical play
could entice it into a snare firmly and
joyously.
THE Siren" came to Washington amid
echoes of enthusiastic praise. Its presen-
tation here simply served to add to the
volume of the tributes. The deft hands
of whimsical artists are seen throughout
it's three acts-in it's music. which, while
light, is tuneful and catchy: in it's dane
ing, which is always dignified, and yet
dashing at times; in its beautiful stage
settings. which are unusually elaborate
in extensiveness and detail; in it's cos
tunes, which are delights to. the modiste
and refreshingiy individualistic, and in
it's cotillon figures which are the essence
Of apparent informality and yet studied
arrangement.
The credit goes to Leo Fall as the
composer of the music, to Harold
Wears as the orchestra director, to
Thomas Reynolds as stage director, to
Donald Brian as the dancing star, to
Julia Sanderson as the sweet-voiced
comedienne-in fact to SO many that
| their names are almost coextensive
with the cast, not to mention that
prolific adapter, Harry B. Smith. who
framed the English version from the
original of Leo Stein and A. NJ Will
mer.
Donald Brian's dancing seems illimit-
able in it's charm-now as dignified as
the stately minuet of our colonial fore
fathers, now as dashing as the Boston.
| or the turkey trot Of the current social
season. and now, for a brief minute, as
much a rag-time jig as delighted the
patrons of minstrelsy only few years
| ago. More justice would be done Mr.
Brian'S capabilities Were his dancing
opportunities greater, even at the sac
rifice of his singing numbers:
| Superlatives were frequently used
last year in giving credit to Miss Julia
Sanderson work in The Arcadians,
and that only makes it the harder to
describe her charm as Lolotte in THE
Siren" What her voice lacks in volume
is more than made up by its canary
like sweetness. Her dramatic powers
unusually marked for light opera
prima donna, shine as she makes the
unspoiled Lolotte outsiren the otne
sirens in winning the love OF Marquis
| de Ravaillac donald Brian).
The natural drollery of Will West, as
the veterinarian. who arrives in the
piece hungry enough to eat anything
that doesn't bite him first, adds mucf
to the pungent humor OF his not toe
laughs. His song hit, Il Want to Sine

by Florence Morrison, he buriesque.

Michael R. Regan. as depicted by Hol-
brook Blinn on the stage of the Belasco
Theater in 1.-The Boss" this week, Is an
interesting picture of a product of modern
business and political conditions. Regan
himself is the boss, and without that
character the play would be lacking in
dramatic quality. AS the play has been
written by Edward Sheldon. the princi-
pal figure is foremost always, and as a
UNIQUE well drawn, natural ward politi-
clan i'm Immediately tailored clothes,
Michael Regain forces attention Mr..
Blinn has d strong part to play and makes
his audience cling to every word he ut
tiers.
1.-The Boss is very human person.
There is not the slightest attempt to pic
ture him as q maligned character full of
nothing but misunderstood excellence, for
he Is not without blemish. Thanks to the
modern muckraker, the American public
knows the boss as an outcropping of cur
rent conditions, dock rat or an ex-bar-
tender graduated into a remarkably as
tute person who pulls himself upward I'M
til he becomes a mark for the aristocratic
reformer.
His hardened visage is shaved daily
and his clothes fit him well. His cigar
sits tight in the side Of his mouth and
his wisdom is couched in profanity and
slang. He is q fine picture Of q red
blooded man who chooses his library ia
BILE as a foot rest. His manicured fists
have retained the knack Of knocking a
man down. Such q person Is Shindy
