phasize the weight of his mirthful
appeal. His eccentric character por-
traitures have been recorded as
among the best that have been con-
tributed to the varieties. His versa
tility has been measured with that of
his heavyweight contemporaries.
Added interest will attach to the
forthcoming bill by reason of the APP
pearance of Una Clayton, a popular
local favorite, in a playlet of tense
human interest, entitled "A Child
Shall Lead Them" In support of Miss
Clayton, Herbert Griffin, former
athletic star of the Newark Academy
field team, will make his first local
appearance on the vaudeville stage.
Mr. Griffin formerly lived in Airing
ton and was at one time one of the
foremost figures in local interscholas-
tic athletic events.
Others who will contribute to the
excellence of the bill will include AL
fredo. an Irvington lad, who makes
his last appearance in this country
during the coming week previous to
his departure for Europe, where he
has been booked for sixteen weeks
engagement. Alfredo is a violinist of
extraordinary ability. The bill will
also serve to introduce such enter
tainers as Miss Olive Briscoe, one of
the daintiest of condolences, who will
offer a new budget of songs and a
new line of patter; Brown and New
man, in their latest conceit, "The Ma
ture Comedian and the Pretty Girl"
Duryea Bensel, one of the most gift
ed of present-day baritones; The
Kemps, in a pot-pourri of mirth and
melody; De Armo, in his latest equil-
ibristic feats; The Peers, in their
pantomimic eccentricities, and Karl
Emmy and His Pets, one of the most
entertaining of animal acts on the
vaudeville circuit
Six feature acts will serve to make
up the bill to be presented at the
Lyric Theatre, in Market street, dur
ing the first three days of next week,
in addition to the photo-plays. Among
the entertainers will be the Sam j
Curtis Company, an aggregation OF
comedians, who will present the skit
"a Session of School" The bill will
also serve to present Howard ano
Walsh, blackface comedians; Dan and
Jessie Hiatt, in a musical comedy
novelty; Aubrey and Flower, team
of clever fun-makers: Cons and Cons
eccentric equilibrists, and James
Stanley and Company, in that hilari'
ously farcial skit entitled "Bixby':

MASON AT NEWARK
IN THE ATTACK
"iindIe Wakes" to Be Given at
Shubert, "The Gamblers
at Orpheum.
LHLIPUTIAN STAR TO
APPEAR AT PROCTOR'S
Good Bills at Gayety, Miners
Washington, Jaoobs's and
Other Amusement Places.

Direct from a long and brilliant
run in New York at the Garrick
Theatre, John Mason returns to New
ark next week with a new play which,
u is said. is sure to captivate his
legion of admirers. Mr.. Mason. who
Is now under the direction Of Charles
Frolman, comes with a very strong
drama, THE Attack" by Henry
Besnstein, the author of 1.-THE Thief
and other notable Partisan successes.
The Attack" was originally pro-
duced In Paris last February at the
Gyrnnase, with Lucien Guitry in the
dominant role Impartial Americans
who have seen the play in Paris and
compared Mr.. Mason's work with
the original interpreter declare that
Mason equals. If not eclipsss, Guitry
as Alexandra Merital.
It is needless to remind those who
are familiar with Mason's past sue
resses that he is always at his best
in manly. sincere and tender love
scenes. The fact that THE Attack
possesses a love interest of a novel
and enthralling sort presages a per-
formance worth seeing
Mr.. Mason has a new leading wom-
an, Martha Hedman. young Swed-
ish actress of rare personal charm
and remarkable beauty. This will
be her initial appearance in Newark,
and if the New York reports II the
Young actresses work signify any
thing she ought to duplicate the sue
cess achieved in New York.

oLcoTT AT THE NEWARK

Those who love the sweet and sim
pie stories of life and custom in the
Emerald Isle. and of the men and
women who met and loved in the
good old days, will welcome the an
nouncement that Chauncey Olcott will
make his annual appearance in New
ark on Monday evening. January 19.
He will present at the Newark Thea
tire his new play, THE Isle o
Dreams, from the prolific pen of
Rlda Johnson Young. who has been
furnishing Mr. Olcott with his We

Young, who is best remembered in

Lottery Man. Brown of Harvard"
and 'Naughty Marietta" has, it iS
said. furnished the popular actor
with the best role he has been seen
in since Edmund Burke The play
differs from the average Olcott offer
ing in that it deals with a serious
subject, that of the contemplated in
vasion of ireland by the Emperor
Napoleon when England garrisoned
every port of the little green isle
with her grimmest troops. and when

"LoVEMAKERS" TO HOLD
FORTH AT THE CAYETY

There is every reason to anticipate
a performance and a production of
burlesque at the Gayety Theatre such
as patrons of that house have rarely,
If ever, seen. Sam Howe, the popu-
lar Hebrew comedian, will present his
Lovemakers company in a new show
which is said to have been organized
and equipped upon more extensive
and elaborate lines than ever before
attempted by any producer of bur-
lesque.
An entirely new book has been pro-
vided during the two acts, of which
five superb scenes are shown, all of
which are said to be equal In point of
artistic scene painting to anything
produced on any stage in the country.
The interior of the palace of the
Khedive at Cairo, showing the harem
in all of it's rare beauties is de-
scribed as marvel of splendor, and
the Partisan boulevard cafe scene, in
which a complete cabaret show is
given, is said to be a perfect replica
of an establishment in the gay French
capital.
The costuming of the show is In
keeping with these scenes and the
effect accomplished by the lavish use
of money may be imagined. Mr.
Howe is said to have left nothins
| undone to secure a result that will
surprise patrons of burlesque house;
and from all accounts he appears te
have perfectly succeeded. In add
ton to these careful preparations 6
company of unusually popular per.
formers has been engaged, including
a chorus of twenty-four pretty girls

LITTLE LORD ROBERTS
TO APPEAR AT PROcToR'S

Little folk and big folk will find
amusement of no small order in the
offerings arranged for presentation
at Proetor's Park Place Theatre next
week, when the smallest as we'll as
the largest figures in the amusement
world will contribute to the bill In
this respect, however, reference is
only made to physical stature, and is
directly applied, especially to little
Lord Roberts, one of the smallest
of Lilliputians, who is likewise one
of the biggest hits on the vaudeville
stage.
Little Lord Roberts, or Little
Billy" as he is Familiarity called, is
but twenty-five inches tall, and
weighs in at just fifteen pounds, but
what he lacks in physical proper
tions he more than makes up by a
preponderance of innate talent. His
diminutive figure only seems to en-

BIRD OF PARADISE COMING

From the far Southwest, where the
fading influence of an old Spanish
aristocracy overlaps and gives a ro-
mantle tinge to the newer American
civilization, Richard Walton Tully
turned a dramatist's eye on the mid
Pacific and wrote a play about old
Hawaii. The BIRD of Paradise"
which will have its first local pre-
sentation at the Shubert Theatre the
week of January Is, is a Yankee Ka-
naka romance in a scene lighted by
the lurid glare of the lava fires of
Kilauea, or. as it is known to the
natives, 'the house of everlasting
fire. and made musical by the weird
wailing of native instruments and
voices. The play is to be presented
with a cast of unusual merit, in
which will be seen Bessie Barriscale,
Guy Bates Post, Margaret Langham
and Lewis S. Stone, together with
more than a score of other players.
The play is in three acts, with five
scenes, all laid in the Hawaiian
islands.

KLElN'S THE GAMBLERS TO
BE GIVEN AT ORPHEUM

Charles Klein builds so solidly, de-
velops his action so logically char
acterizes his people with such minute
touches and presents his facts so
conclusively that a simple recounting
of the plot of 1.-THE Gamblers" to
be presented at the Orpheum Theatre
next week, suffices to acquaint one
with the gripping dramatic qualities
of this successful play.
The bill itself is one of the strong
est cards that Manager Corse Pay
ton has played here, but an addi-
tional fact makes the attraction the
most noteworthy of any offering pre-
sented by him since he began his
successful run in the City of Indus
try. That fact is that this particu
lar production is responsible for the
the appearance here of Miss Mabel
Brownell. Her ability was recog-
nized by Mr.. Payton at the Maxine
Elliott Theatre, New York, two sea-
sons ago, when the now leading
woman of Mr.. Payton's company
appeared in the leading role of Mr..
Klein's remarkable story of the mar
ket place of high finance.
Miss Brownell on that occasion
proved her trustworthiness so force
fully that theatrical managers un-
hesitatingly sent her out through the
country to present the famous char
acter of Mrs. Darwin, created by Jane
Cowle. The managers proved justi-
fed in their action inasmuch as other
companies on the road have since
shared in the appreciation shown
| toward this drama.
One of the remarkable situations in
this play develops when Mrs. OAR
win, the wife of the prosecuting at
| torney in the case of the gamblers
confronts Wilbur Emerson, played by
clifford Stork, when he breaks int
her house in an attempt to secure
| telltale evidence against himself and
mis- pals. in the shape Of documents

individuals consulting their-.own COM
fort, can usually be relied upon to take
the precaution Of screening their own

would be much better safeguarded if
fly screens were in more general use in
stores where food is kept for sale.
Atlanta, Ga, recognized this fact,
when on the first of April it began the
enforcement of "a city ordinance re-
qririrg the use Eof fly screens. The
ordinance applies particularly to gro
ceries. meat markets. produce stores
and other places of business to which
flies are naturally attracted and from
which they should be rigidly excluded,
as health measure.
A custom of this kind fput in force
either by ordinance or by common
consent, would prove it's value in any
city by keeping down the disease and
mortality figures. We should "swat
the fly" and "starve the fy,' but in
any event we should keep the fly away
