AT LYRIC THEATRE

Before a well-f1lled house at the
Lyric Theater in Market steet the
latest of photo plays entitled Ben
Bolt" was shown yesterday. Al

vile bill is in evidence at the Lyric

a beautiful song poem, written some
years ago.

get Ben Bolt drunk, so that he can
discredit him before Alice's father.
Ben Bolt then goes to sea on his YES
sci, and in the meantime Alice's
father Is on the verge of financial
ruin, because of the rumor that his
trading ship is reported to have been
sunk. Fortunately Ben Bolt is in the
vicinity of the sinking ship and
rescues ii. He then lows the ship
safely into port.
His rival throws Alice's father over
board, but the old gentleman is res
cued by Ben Bolt. Out of gratitude
to Ben Bolts heroism, the father con-
sents to the marriage of Alice and
Ben Bolt is kidnapped by his rival
and the rivals cronies, who. after
stunning him, carry him to the old
mill, and tie him to the windmill.
Then they start the wheel going. Ben
Bolt is discovered half drowned by
farm hand and rescued. While the
wedding of Ben and Alice is in pro-
gress. Ben Bolts rival steals the for
mer's vessel and goes to sea- Ben
Bolt charters another vessel. pursues

encounter on the deck of the ship,
Ben Bolt is victorious.

week. the Musical Coattas. with a
$500 revolving electrical chime, Is
the headiner.

LAUGHTER FILLS
MINERS EMPIRE

Headed by those peerless come
dams, Frank Finney and Sam J
Adams, the Trocadero Burlesuuers
are ably assisting in making Miners
fftieth anniversary at the local En-
pire Theatre this week an event to
be remembered by the anusment-
loving public. The company easily
leads the burlesque circuit In melody
and humor, a combination that Is
sure winner.
This week is being celebrated in all
of the Miner theatres in commemora-
ton of the start of the late Henry
Miner in theatrical enterprises in
1864. fifty years ago Mr.. Miner, sr..
is well remembered by the older IN
habitants of this city as the head of
Miners Newark Theatre, now known
as the Newark Theatre, where many
of the greatest stars ever seen in
this city performed in the successes
of twenty years or more ago. The
Empire. the Miner home now de-
voted TO burlesque under the man
agement of Tom Miner. is decora ted
from pit to dome with flags and
bunting in honor of the half century
of the theatrical enterprises of the
family.
A clever plot carries through The
Legend of the Ring" the two-act mu-
steal extravaganza used by the Troca-
deros. L.aughable complications come
fast, one upon the other, during the
action, which takes place in Newport
and India During all tuneful me1o-
dies are introduced by an exception
ally weil-trained chorus of two
score girls and quintet of male
voices.

KEENEY PROGRAM
DELIGHTS CROWDS

The society education of newly
rich Irishman forms the theme OF a
one-act comedy with which Ryan
Richfield and company head the bill
at Keeney's the first half OF TINS
week. Mike Haggerty carries MS
new dignity with much less grace
than he carried the hod In the ola
days. While the theme is a common
one in vaudeville nowadays, 1t is
perhaps not so well developed by any
other company. The act was received
witt, continual bursts of laughter.
Cahill, Lane and Dunphy presented
a singing act which provoked consid-
cradle applause. An exhibition of
Russian, acrobatic, whirlwind and
modern dancing by the Weston trio
made q. favorable impression upon
the audience.
An acrobatic act, followed by a
little lightning painting introduced
the Hamilton brothers. further
comedy was presented to patrons by
Stone and West and by Burke and
Harris. The Great Lyannia, Jap
anese, undertook to write ones sweet
hearts name upside down and back
wards and performed other feats on
the blackboard with some success.
One of the most pleasing acts on
the program was presented by DeHa-
rest and Doll, and the formers antics
at the piano caused continual laugh
ter. Well-selected motion pictures
round out the bill.

developing daughter. She comes to
Long Island and concisely and con-
vincingly tells Neil SO, and the man,
knowing the truth of her words, con-
cedes that 1t is best to take Cynthia
away.
1t Is here that the plays most eff
fecttYe scene comes in Neil feels
that IL his little girl knows that she
is not to see him again he will not
nave the strength to say good-oy.
So he pretends that 1t Is for but two
days, and happily the little girl makes
her arrangements. giving him a hun
dred directions as to the care OF her
roses and her pets, making him re-
peat over and over the endearing
little French phrases she has taught
him; unconsciously turning, and turn
ing again, the knife in the wound the
parting has caused, and tripping
bllthely off at last, sure that she Is to
be back in two days, leaving
wretched, heart-broken man on the
other side of the door she closes, fu-
tilely sobbing against its unsym-
pathetic wooden panel
The art that is in Mr.. Miller dis
played itself in all It's perfection at
this point. His grief, and his mastery
of it, and its final mastery of him,
when the little girl had gone, and

It was year before Neil Sumner
saw his little girl again, and then
she was quite grown UP, long-skirted,
topknotted and engaged. She and
her mother still lived abroad, and 1t

interested friends) that they met and
patched up their difficulties. the

lous brother law, whose financial
vagaries Neil had kept hidden, but
it is not important enough for con-

Ruth Chatterton played Cynthia
with understanding. Cynthia was a
little girl who had been alone very
much, and this growing up with her
own thoughts, aside from her
mother, for her chief companions,
had stamped her with gravity that
Miss Chatterton admirably conveyed.
A gifted coincidence is Louise Clos

BY ApELrNE oARR1oK WELLS

A PRETTY story of a man who
n found himself through love of his
child is 1.-THE Rainbow" by A. e.
Thomas, presented at the Newark
Theatre this week, with Henry Miller
as the man and Ruth Chatterton,
slip of a miss with piquant profile,
as the child-pretty, but wholly in
adequate as a vehicle for the ex-
ploitation of Mr., Miller's several kinds
of histrionic ability.
We have learned to expect things
of Mr.. Miller. His delineation of Neil
Summer has the careful finish that
always distinguishes Mr.. Miiler's
work, but we wish there was more
to delineate. Simplicity is art, but art
Is by no means just simplicity. The
Rainbow" is a piece played within
an octave; and. since we have seen
Mr.. Miller thunder over the whole
keyboard, there is a feeling that he,
as we'll as we. feels the cranping
effect Of his octavial boundaries.
Given a lesser actor than Mr.. Mill
Ter, however, and we'd find no fault
with such a dainty bit of work as
"The Rainbow" Here is its story,
briefly: Neil Sumner ten years back
was banished from her presence by
wife who felt that her course was
justified. She took their little girl
and went to live abroad, while her
husband, feeling himself shut out
from all that was best in life, took
the bit between his teeth and ran
amuck, haunting the race tracks, Gull
tivating the friendship of persons of
shady character and doing the vari-
Gus other things that men. seem to
feel justified in doing when this old
world fails to come up to their idea
of its duty.
Let ten years pass and we find our
selves and Neil Sumner at the open
ing of the story. His wife, has re-
turned from abroad, and the little
girl, now just this side of long skirts
and topknots and beaux, seeks him
out, having found that other girls
have daddies whom they love very,
very much, and wanting to love and
know her own more than anything
in the world.
Neil meets her more than half way
She is 1.-THE Rainbow" that lights up
the lonesomeness of his existence.
They go to his Long Island home and
become marvelously well acquainted
among the roses and wild honey
suckle. Here Cynthia meets some of
her fathers friends, whose raty
language she finds interesting enough
to adopt. She asks her father ques-
tons about this person and that,
looking straight into his eyes until
he turns away, feeling hopelessly
guilty before her innocent candor.
Cynthia's mother, who has kept in
touch with the situation, feels that
Neil's home is not the place for her

LITTLE MINISTER"
AN ORPHEUM HIT

1.-The Little Minister" Msude
Adans's great success from the pen
of ]. NJ. Barrie, is the offering of
the Brownell-Stork Stock Company at
the Orpheum Theatre this week. This
beautiful play of life in Scotland is
excellently presented and the char
acters are well cast.
The play tells the story of min
lister who comes to a Scotch weaving
town. He wars on the gypsy bands
that roam the woods and drives them
from the countryside A strike had
occurred in the village during which
rioting had taken place and the Brit
ish ''redcoats" sent to down the riot
ers. The weavers escape to the woods
and after the departure of the troops
struggle home. After that watch is
maintained in the mountains to warn
the villagers in case the soldiers re-
turn.
The Little Minister, Gavin Dishart,
learns Of this and going to the rendez-
vous of the sentinels orders them
home. Lady Babbie, in the garb of
a gypsy girl, comes to warn the
townsfolk of the coming of the SOL
diers and unable to blow the three
blasts on the trumpet, the signal of
danger, gets the minister to do it
for her by telling him she is lost and
that is the signal to her tribe that
they might come for her.
The minister falls madly in love
with her and when the soldiers are
close in pursuit of her he permits the
girl to declare herself his wife, which,
in Scotland, constitutes legal mar
riage. Later he follows the girl to
the castle of Lord Rintoul. There he

but Lady Babbie, the daughter of
Lord Rintoul They declare their
love, but Lord Rintoul and his choice
for his daughters hand in marriage,
intervene.
The father and Captain Howell,
the choice of the father for a son-in-
law, not knowing that the gypsy girl
is Lady Babbie, who was introduced
as the minister's wife in Caddam
Wood, plan to publish the marriage
of the minister to the gypsy girl and
prevent his daughter from marrying
the little minister. Lady Babbie in
to his acknowledgement of the night
that he saved her from the redcoats.
This the Little Minister does and he
claims Lady Babbie as his wife.
Both from a scenic and dramatic
standpoint the play is a success.
Every member is good, although the
work of some stand out most plainly.
Mabel Brownell in the role of Lady
Babbie was excellent, while Clifford
Stork, as the Little Minister, made a
deep impression by his excellent act
ing. Miss Mabelle Estelle, as Micah

lowing her training there, Miss Col
lings came to America and had her
first memorable season. Her per-
Torrance of one of the leading char
acters in THE Blue Bird" attracted
attention and secured for her the
role of Youth in Mr.. Savage's pro-
duction of "Everywoman,' in which
part she continued for two seasons
and then played with Douglas Fair
banks.
When the latter made his famous
partnership with Mr.. Crane and
Amelia Bingham it was decided to
include Miss Collinge in this galaxy

and the note of impelling youth
which she infuses into the perform
ance is of the most appealing quail
