Next week will see a change In
the policy of the Payton company in
its summer season at the Newark
Theatre. Instead of presenting musi-
cal comedy it will put on only straight
comedies and dramas of approved
merit SO long has the Payton name
been identified with this char
acter of dramatic work, that the
change was thought advisable. The
first Offering under this change will
be David Belasco's New York sue
cess, 1.-THE Woman" one of the best
plays yet written by the author,
William C. deMille. There will be
daily matinees, and popular prices
will prevail.
In casting this play of present day
American political life in Washing
ton, Joseph W. Payton has assembled
a company of merit, thoroughly
capable of depicting this struggle be-
tween party regular and party insur-
gent.
Lee Sterrett, a character actor al
ready popular with Newark audiences,
will play the role of the Hon. Jim
Blake, whose efforts to force into line
the insurgent, Standish, played by
william L. Gibson, to vote for a
great railroad measure in the House,
causes the principal action. Miss
Maybelle Estelle plays the part of a
telephone girl IN Washington hotel,
which was created by Mary Nash, in
the original production. 1t is her
successful concealment of the name
of 1.-THE woman" with whom Standish
was once involved, Blake's own
daughter, that illustrates Blake's
plot. Miss Catherine Calhoun has the
title role, and William A. Mortimer
plays the husband who all unwilling
ly tries to wrest his own wife's name
from the telephone girl. Others in
the cast include Joseph w. Glrard,
Edward Soraghan, Arthur Jarrett
and Harry B. Roche.

OLYMPIC PARK OPERA
THE "BECCAR STUDENT

Inc olympic Park opera Com
pany's revival of Franz Won Suppes
comic opera, "Boccaccio," will close
with the matinee and night perform
ances of today and Sunday, the en-
gagement having covered fourteen
consecutive performances to business
that warrants the prediction that the
present season of light opera will be
one of the most successful ever given
at this summer resort.
"Boccaccio" will be followed by
Karl Milloeckers comic opera classic,
1.-THE Begger Student" fer many
years one of the foremost productions
in the repertoire of the Mccall Opera
Company, and more recently revived
at the New York Casino Theatre by
the Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Com
pany. 1t is this revival that lends
added interest to the forthcoming
performances to be given at Olympic
Park. The Messrs. Shubert and Will
lam A. Brady. directors of the Gilbert
and Sullivan company, found 1.-THE
Beggar Student" particularly at
tractive drawing card.
There are three acts and four
scenes in the opera, all of them laid
in Cracow, Poland, in the eighteenth
century, affording unlimited POSSIBLE
tiles for lavish costuming of the most
picturesque design andt coloring. It's
story has to do with one General Oh
lendorf, military governor of Cracow,
who has been snubbed by the Count
ess Laura at public ball, and who,
| to avenge the insult, visits the city
jail to find a character whom he can
| dress up In finery and present to the
countess. He accordingly selects Sy-
mon, student, who has been impris-
oned for debt. and offers to liberate
! him IL he will agree to carry out the
deception. Symon agrees reluctantly,
and eventually Is married to the
Countess Laura. After the wedding
ceremony Ollendorf, in the presence
of the royal assemblage, informs
Laura that her husband is nothing
but a 1ailbird. However. through the
activity of one Janitslxy, Polish no.
bleman, Ollendorf and his faction are
overthrown and under the new regime
Symon is raised to high honor.
There are seventeen characters in
THE Beggar Student" and all are of
sufficient Importance to call for the
full strength of the Olympic Park
company Added to the singers and
players appearing this week in Boo
caccio' will be Miss Agnes Finley
for many seasons pronounced favor
lite at the park, where she appeared
last season in the Aborn production
of 1.-THE Red Mill"
All of the scenery and properties for
"The Beggar Student" will be built in
the Olympic Park studios.

DIES MONIES, Ia, June IT
wouldn't run a dog fight without
music" says James C. Sanders, war
den of the Iowa Penitentiary at Fort
Madison.
Sanders was the first to introduce
music in penitentiary in this coun-
try and has attracted attention all
over the United States because Of his
new methods of handling convicts.
MEN, after all, are largely like
animals" says the warden, land they
are crossest when eating. Trouble
in pen1tentiaries and asylums of the
country, you will find on careful in
vestigation, always starts in the
dining-room or the kitchen.
"Appreciating this fact 1 applied
the soothing effect of music by or
ganizing an orchestra and having 1t
play during the meal hour. We have
had no trouble in the dining-room
since the music was introduced.
Music appeals to the better side Of
men. I found the prisoners willing to
learn to play musical instruments and
to participate in the band and or
chestra We now have an orchestra
Of twelve pieces and band of sew
enteen.
1--WE have instrumental music at
our Sunday services. We've created
an interest in vocal music, too, and
the penitentiary has a fine choir Of
male voices"
Most of the instruments in the or
chasfra and hand are owned by the
prisoners themselves, having been
purchased with money they have
saved from the meagre pittance al
lowed them by the State for luxuries
They have been bought instead OF
tobacco, fruit and sweets.

charge OF the Iowa prison and issued
his orders all authorities of the
United States threw up their hands

in New York one of the purest and
best men of his time, Robert Collier,
the Unitarian preacher, who lived
to be nearly ninety years old. What
this wise old man said about the

worth repeating in this day when
that incompatible book is read so
little by the masses:
