point to be attained in stage manage

Laid away in some deep recess of the
big safe in the luxurious Offices of Mr..
p. B. Chase. in the beautiful theater
which bears his name, there is little
day-book in which is recorded the first
well-nigh tragic year of vaudeville in
Washington. The pathetic story Of pub
lie misunderstanding of narrowness
and interpretation, is told in little rows
of figures, which totaled heavy
loss at the end of each day. aggregating
more than thirty thousand dollars before
the first year of vaudeville life in WASH
ington had been spent
This was all fourteen years ago when
the Ohioan took over the old Albaugh
Opera House in Pennsylvania Avenue,
and presented vaudeville to Washing
ton for the first time. Scores Of folk
will remember the prejudice he had to
break down, the tremendous odds that
were against his success, for at that
time Washington boosted only the Ma
tional. the La Fayette (now the Belasco).
the Columbia, Kernan's now the Ly-
ceum). and the stock burlesque at the
Majestic. 1t seemed impossible to make
the public realize that polite vaudeville
was not burlesque, and there are those
who declare that many a week during
the first six months after the opening
of Chase's Theater they could count
no more than forty or fifty people at
the matinee. And the little day-book
in Mr.. Chase's safe, which records the
sales, almost justifies the assertion.
TT was a mighty sick baby, my little
vaudeville child" Mr.. Chase told me
one afternoon last week, but 1 loved it
and stuck by it,
And that tells the whole story of all
the years that have interviewed between

ctal loss: its bitter ANNOUNCEMENTS and
heartaches, and the present week, when

teenth anniversary in the most beautiful

enormous success.
Mr. Knoblauch drew his inspiration for
the play from Sir Richard Burton's trans
lation OF The Arabian Nights" though
he does not follow in his dramatic COM
position any particular one of the fasci-
mating stories of Schecherezade. He has
however. woven into his drama many
incidents and turns OF speech that

the book with remarkable skill
The role of Hail the Beggar, is the
most brilliant. the most diversified, and
the most exacting that has ever fallen
to the lot OF Skinner. and in II he has

abilities to the best possible advantage.

BeIasco - William Fnversham
Julius Caesar

"JuItus SaeS0r.
William Faversham's spectacular pro-
duction of Julius Caesar" which comes
to the Belasco Theater this week. with
an all-star cast. including Mr.. Faver-
sham, Frank keenan,, Berton Churchill.
Fuller Mellish. and Julie Opp, is far and
away the most notable Shakespearean
presentation Of modern times. Not since
the days OF Booth. Barrett and Daven-
port has there been assembled in any
one permanent organization a group OF
players so calculated to establish a new
standard of perfection Of histrionic in
depreciation as this one Of Mr.. Faver-
sham's achieving.
Furthermore, the production is one
that is thoroughly universal in its ap-
peal The keen student of Shakespeare
and classic drama will revel in the
authoritative correctness of the readings
and the scenic investiture. The everyday
theatergoer will follow the blood-tingling
story of Caesarian intrigue and battle
with quickened pulse and constant in
terest. Every school child will clap at
delight ut the realistic happenings In the
Roman forum. The alert student of
politics will watch the unfolding of the
historic drama, observing all the while
that history repeats itself" Even the
tired business man. cannot fail to be
moved by the pomp and march and
beauty and thrill of the production.
Much OF this universally Of appeal is
due to a spirit of modernity, of human
ity which Mr.. Faversham has infused
into the representation, and which IS
often almost totally lacking in Shakes
pearean productions. For once In a per-
Torrance of one of the dramas OF the
Immortal bard" classic pose and in
fiated bombast are eliminated. One able
critic has spoken of the presentation as
being Julius Caesar for 1871 The
means and pains and subtle attunings
which Mr.. Faversham has had to enlist
for the attaining Of this final result are
of little consequence here. The prin-
cipal thing is the result itself, In every
particular Mr.. Faversham has striven to
give to the performance the clarion note
of modernity which makes for complete
sympathy and understanding on the part
of the twentieth century spectator, yet
in no wise has he violated the best
Shakespearean traditions.

The exhibition of trick riding and
rope handling of Friday had not
encouraged any new talent to try to
take the prizes from the men who
had shown their skill then. The
entries were the same as for the
previous day.
Geo. Hooker, of Sulphur Springs
valley, and Tom Mix were the only
entries for the trick riding. Hooker
set the pace. Mix followed for a
while but was decidedly outclassed.
although he is wonderfully daring
and skillful horseman. They were
in and out and over the saddle while
their horses were going at tearing
gallop. 1t all looked as easy as a
little girl skipping rope. They

instead of spirited COW ponies run
ming at full speed. 1t was so evil
dent that they were likely to break
their necks at any moment that the
audience went wild with enthusiasm.
Mix's horse interfered somewhat
with his riders work by slowing up
at critical moments and in this
way marred his splendid showing.
There was universal approval of the
award of first money to Hooker,
second money to Mix
Harry Knight was the star of the
fancy roping contest. This he ex-
planned to the audience "only needed
a weak head and a strong backbone"
