GOVERNORS LADY
COMES NEXT WEEK
To THE NATIONAL
Master Hand Of BeIasco Seen
in Great Production Played
by a Strong Cast.

'The Governors Lady," one of the
most widely discussed and successful
plays of the present theatrical season,
will have its first presentation in Wash.
ington next week at the New National
Theater It comes to this city direct
from Its seasons run at the Republic
Theater. with the same cast and scenic
appointments which were provided for
it by William Elliott and David Belasco
In New York city.
In Belasco productions it Is not far
to seek the reasons Tor success. In
them nothing is left to. chance. The in
finite care with which the cast Is Sc
lected, the extraordinary attention to
detail and scenery and properties, and
all of the thousand and one other
things that are usually overlooked by
the ordinary producer are provided for,
SO that when Belasco play is given to
an audience 1t is well-nigh perfect.
In 1.-The Governors Lady" the stage
pictures are so unusual and elaborate,
SO realistic in every detail as to have
excited the wonder of all who have seen
them. From the rising Of the curtain
on Slade's home. to the epilogue with
it's perfect reproduction of Childs'
restaurant, the illusion OF reality is
there.
To interpret this remarkable play Mr..
Elliott and Mr. Belasco have gotten to-
gether a cast of unusual excellence. EN-
nett Corrigan's portrayal Of Daniel
Slade, the former miner and millionaire
who is afterward governor of his State.
and power, while Emma Dunn's char
acterization of "The Governors Lady
is likely to become a classic of the
American stage. In fact, in every re-
spect the parts are handled in a re-
markable manner by Gladys HANSON,
Starr King Walker. William II. Tooker,
and every one Of the other thirty men,
