Miss Barrymore succeeds in giving all

still, ''Drifted Apart is a simple story

NATIONAL.
"sari.n

'Sari," Kalman's tunefuI operetta,
which had tits premiere in Washington
last season and then scored an immediate
triumph, returned to the New National
Theater last night and was welcomed by
one Of the largest audiences ever gath
cred there. Not only that, II was one of
the most enthusiastic Of audiences, for
every number, whether solo or chorus,
was applauded to the echo, and nearly
every one had to be encored more than
once. In many respects the operetta has
been improved There Is more action,
especially in the second act, which has
been elaborated, spectacularly as well as
lyrically, to a considerable extent. The
costumes OF the female portion of the
chorus in this act are distinguished by
richness and good taste, albeit some of
them afforded almost too generous a
view Of the anatomical outnt OF the
wearers. In striking contrast are the
picturesque garbs Of the gypsy villagers
in the first act, and in the matter of
scenic equipment that act also is far
more pleasing to the eye.
There is in ''Sari'' a native freshness
which is sure to maintain the operetta
as favorite with the public The music
bears the stamp Of originality. Tnere
Is an agreeable diversity IN the style
Of the solos and choruses, and the alb
sence Of more or less monotonous waltz
movements is especially grateful. Almost
idyllic is Pick a Husband" sung by
Sarf and the children; Sari's "Hazazaa'
is decidedly in a class by itself; Love
Has Wings" is delightfully."- romantic, and
Ny Faithful Stradivari'' is one Of the
most captivating airs in modern light
opera. The orchestration has more than
ordinary merit and is enjoyable even by
musical cognescenti. especially when
played by so competent an orchestra
as that provided by Henry W. Savage.
Dainty little Mizzi Hajos invests the
title role with her own peculiar charm.
Her gayety is infectious to a degree.
She carries her audience with her by
sheer exuberance of mimicry. That
pull-down-the-vest motion IN the first
act is worth whole magazine of ordi-
nary tricks, and her grotesque appear
ance In the first part of the second act
carries the audience by storm. The
lyrics allotted to her are rendered with
hne effect, and the ~Hazazaa" Is. en-
dowed with just the right measure Of
and hoydenish aban-
don. Take it all in ali. Mizzi Hajos

"The GambIers.o

The new Poll players made their debut
yesterday in Charles Klein's THE Gam

cordial. and at the close of the second
act Charles Mackay, the new leading
man, was compelled to make a curtain
speech of appreciation in behalf of the
new company for the ovation that was
rendered them.

goer her admIrer from the outset with
her lovely personality and her well-ac-

excellent. 1t is certain that the new Poll

.The Dummy

Anybody might set out to make a
play on the fulnilment of a smart boys
dream Of becoming Adjective. and It
is easy to imagine such an effort lead
ing to all sorts Of bad. mediocre, and
grotesque results. 1t must accordingly
be taken as a most happy stroke of for
tune that the freshness Of the theme has
not been dulled by treatment in incom-
petent hands, but that 1t has been left
for the authors and producers OF The
Dummy" which saw the light In WASH
ingtOn last spring and has returned for
a weeks visit at the Columbia Theater,
to give the subject the full Measure Of
appreciative care that Il deserves.
To Harvey ]. o'Higgins and Harriet
Ford. the authors of this delightful
detective comedy" belongs the credit
for the invention OF a story that con-
tains the very essence of romance. for
positive brilliancy in the development
OF original incidents and situations. and
for the appearance of a vein OF humor
of more than ordinary richness in the
lines. The producer must be thanked
for thorough and sympathetic atten-
tion to the details that assist illusion
and for the engagement OF company
that is competent to the last member
very first grade of ability.
The work Of Ernest Truck as Barney

pect bad acting as a matter of course
