CINCINNATI, Ohio, March 29.-
With the Ohio river covering the en-
tire lower section of the city and the
refugees of the stricken upstate towns
coming here by the thousands, Cincin-
natl this morning faces a situation re-
curing the combined efforts of all the
civic and relief organizations to cope
with it successfully. Every hotel is
crowded to the limit.
The river had reached height of
s. and 9-10s feet at daylight and is
stin rising slowly. Sixty city blocks
are inundated, some being under ten
feet of water.
A rise of another foot will put the
company operating all the street car
lines entering from Kentucky out OF
commission by swamping the power
plant.
The city has food enough to last ter
DAYS.
/ Covington and Newport are also IN
der water.
Thousands are out OF work.

Theatre next week, in practically a
double header. Two entirely differ
ent burlesques will be presented.
The first sprightly little comedetta
deals with a plot of mistaken iden-
tity and furnishes an endless chain
of farcical complications; the closing
burlesque is overloaded with real
French comedy. The locale IS laid in
Paris and the various scenes
spread with effective and gay ingre-
dents.
Watson is surrounded by an excep-

inspiring scenes is projected a story
of the frontier.
The play tells the story of the
bride. who discovers that her hus-
band has won her by trick. The
unsuccessful sutton voluntarily wan
ders into the desert to die. He is
followed by the young husband who,
at the command of his bride, would
rescue the wanderer. The incident
gives opportunity for remarkable
canyon and cliff scenes, in which are
shown the vivid landscape hues and
atmospheric effects of that pictur-
esque country.
Over the face of the cliffs comes
a troop of Apaches mounted on
horseback, picking their way along
the trail of the white men. This
scene is described as one of the larg-
est ever enacted in theatre, and
it also shows the appearance of
'Slim" Hoover, the sheriff, his dep
uties and the cavalrymen to the
rescue. Another remarkable scene
is the roundup of the bucking
ponies.

gagged in THE Roundup" are Shep

REAL DETECTIVE PLAY
FOR NEWARK PATRONS

Robert Hilliard, under the direction
of Klaw & Erlanger, appears at the
Newark Theatre next week, with mat
inees on Wednesday and Saturday, in
a peculiarly interesting new detec-
tive play, THE Argyle Case" which
achieved such instant success during
a New York run extending from last
December we'll into June.
THE Argyle Case" is a detective
play by Harriet Ford, successful
dramatist, and Harvey j. O'Higglns,
popular magazine writer. They have
co-operated with no less a celebrity
than Detective William j. Burns.
There are no politics in this play
no reference to graft or industrial
conditions. No attempt has been
made to portray Detective Burns on
the stage. The mystery of the Argyle
murder has been wrought out by the
great criminal investigator as if he
We're employed to solve it in real life
The Burns methods are employed
by Detective Kayton impersonated
by Mr.. Hllliard-and his operatives.
Kayton Is the -to-the-minute
American type of sleuth, with the
easy poise of the man of the world,
the alert decisiveness of the man of
business and the almost psychic per-
ception that penetrates the heart of
a criminal problem. For such a part
Mr.. Hilliard, player of polished
skill and personal distinction, is Pc
culiarly suited.
The trail of the Argyle investiga-
ton leads from the home of John
Argyle through the New York offices
of the Kayton Detective Agency to
the counterfeiters' nest in an old
house in Washington square and back
again to Kayton's office, where the
last thread of complication is I'M
raveled. A New York cast of thirty
people is associated with Mr.. billiard,
including such well-known players as

land, Joseph Touby, Harvey Clarke,
John J. Pierson, Bert Walter, Frank
RUSSELL Robert Newcombe, w. t.

PROCTOR'S BILL HAS
MANY GOOD FEATURES

One of the most pretentious vaude-
vile acts ever presented on the
modern stage will be offered at
Proctor's Park Place Theatre, New
ark, during the week of September 49,
in the shape of a musical comedy en-
titled "Over the Garden Wall" This
delightful comedietta is in three acts
and was written by George ".
Hobart, the well-known humorist,
whose "Dinkelspiel" stories have
made millions laugh and whose work
in the musical comedy field has
stamped him as one of the foremost
writer's for the stage in the country
today. The music for cover the Gar
den WalP' was composed by Sylvio
Helm. who has to his credit some of
the most successful musical comedies
of recent years. 1t is replete with
lifting melodies which are sure to be-
come extremely popular, while the
score, on the whole is said to be a
finished product and worthy of
special note.
The scenes OF the comedy are laid
in the rose garden Of a school for
girls on the Hudson, and are pic
turesque in detail and construction
There are twenty characters involved,
mostly pretty girls who can sing and
dance and who are far above the
average types seen in the ordinary
musical plays. Heading the cast are
William Foran and Harry T. DELPHI,
well known musical comedy stars,
who have been principals in sew
eral recent Broadway successes. The
costuming of the sketch is excep-
tionally brilliant and beautiful, and
several novel electrical effects are in
troduced. The production of cover
the Garden Wall was made under
the personal supervision of Joseph
Hart, himself a noted stage master of
musical plays.
Among the other star features of
the bill are Edward Favor and Edith
Sinclair q Company, who will be
seen In new and roaring comedy
entitled "Regan's Luck" and Yyvette
the cyclonic violinist. who has Just
closed a brilliant engagement at the
Folies Bergere, in Paris. and whose
appearance in Newark will prove an
event of special Importance.
The Stanley Trio, versatile
group of entertainers whose per-
formance ranges from sleight-of hand
to music and gymnastie feats. are
also on the program. Nine. Busse
and her troupe of toy terriers" in
bits of musical comedy will lend a
touch of true novelty to the bill.

OLD FAVORITE RETURNS
TO SHUBERT FOR WEEK

The sale of seats for "Bunty Pulls
the Strings" which comes to the Shu-
bert Theatre on October s, will open
next Tuesday morning. 1t goes with
out saying that no play of the last
decade has created the same interest
among theatregoers as "Bunty." AL
most unheralded, it came to this
country and Immediately created a
profound impression, SO much so that
Golfers Theatre in New York was
crowded to it's utmost capacity for
over fifteen months. The secret of
the plays greatness lies in the fact
that it is so different from all plays
that have gone before 1t is all about
a simple church-going folk in the
highlands of West Scotland, and
bares to the bone Scotch wit and
Scotch canniness.
The company to be seen in the
local production is headed by Miss
Molly PearsonS who plays her origi-
nal role of "Bunty," and is surround
ed by a specially imported cast
